Book excerpt: God’s call for us doesn’t end when we retire. In fact, many of our biblical saints were in their later years before God called them to the adventures for which we know them: leadership, new life, transformation, healing. Their lives demonstrate that true callings are discerned not simply through reason and circumstance but also through self-knowledge and conversation with God. In Answering God's Call, spiritual director Barbara Lee uses Scripture-focused prayer to help readers connect with some of our elder saints and consider what God reveals to us through their lives. We will spend time with Anna and Abram, Simon’s mother-in-law and Namaan the Syrian, a widow, a leper, a king, and a late-in-life mother-to-be, among others, who will open for us the calls to trust humility stillness forgiveness service radical change letting go choosing caregiving courage... Dare to receive what your life is now—and ask God how to live it best.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than a decade ago, Jerry Sittser prayed for the protection of his family, yet three of his loved ones--his daughter, his wife, and his mother--died in an automobile accident. What went wrong? "Why wasn't my prayer answered?" he asks. "It is no longer an abstract question to me. What should we do and how should we respond when our prayers--prayers that seem right and true and good--go unanswered?" In When God Doesn't Answer Your Prayer, Sittser continues exploring the issues he addressed in A Grace Disguised. He asks, "Why doesn't God answer our prayers? What, if anything, can we do about it?" Sittser is intensely committed to exploring the Christian faith, especially when it doesn't seem to "work." In this thoughtful and beautifully written book, he moves beyond easy answers and religious formulas to explore the goodness and greatness of a God who cannot be controlled but can be trusted. When God Doesn't Answer Your Prayer takes an honest and probing look at the problem of unanswered prayer. In doing so, it draws us ever deeper into a relationship with the God who is the end of all our prayers, the object of our faith, the one who fulfills our deepest longings.

You are on a journey just as I have been. Answering God's Wake-up Call (2013) chronicles 100 days of my journey with the Holy Spirit - a journey that landed me in Antigua. Shared with readers are events, days, prayers, poems, thoughts that represent a very real walk with God. An emphasis is placed on obedience and listening for God and to God. This book picks up in some ways where Yes, God, I'm Listening (2002) left off. As we all know, it is one thing to listen - it is many times more important to be obedient. And we are called to tell others of our experiences. When you get the wake-up call, what will you do? Hit the snooze and roll over? It's a journey! Don't miss the call!! This book is for you.

Dr. Clark’s experience of employment and community outreach were as much a part of her journey as the personal relationships formed with individuals in Antigua and her eye-opening experience of coming to know the Holy Spirit as a person, a friend, a guide, and a dependable confidante. ....The life story is clearly a testimony that where God guides, He provides many opportunities to us to be used as a Blessing to others.
