Book excerpt: "Our Christian assertion is that there is more to our lives than 'now.' If there is not then even the now is meaningless. But we say now counts. Why? Now counts because we are creatures who have an origin and a destiny which is rooted and grounded in God." --R.C. Sproul ------ There is no such thing as a meaningless moment. Since we're made in God's image and created for His eternal glory, everything we think, say, and do today matters forever. The question is, How should this truth direct our daily lives? For more than forty years, Dr. R.C. Sproul wrote his recurring column in Tabletalk magazine, Right Now Counts Forever, to apply the teachings of the Bible and Reformed theology to everyday life. No topic was off-limits because every part of our lives bears enduring significance. Through the years, Dr. Sproul helped Christians give careful thought to topics in theology and history, politics and current events, relationships and entertainment, and more. In this four-volume collection, hundreds of Dr. Sproul's columns have been brought together for the first time. Written to serve the church, this treasury of theological reflection can help guide believers of all ages to live with eternity in mind and devote all of life to the glory of God.

Download or read book Made for His Pleasure written by Alistair Begg and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you living for God's pleasure or for your own? Pleasing God is not a matter of personal choice, but an imperative that must be taken seriously. In a world of self, we must give way to the priority of God if we want to experience His joy. In this popular book, Alistair identifies ten benchmarks from Scripture that will prove invaluable as you seek to live a life that is pleasing to God. His clear, personal message will challenge and revitalize your faith. Spiritual fitness is not a series of straight, 100-yard sprints. Rather, it’s a lifelong cross-country run of endurance and perseverance. The life that is truly fulfilling gives back to God the talents and abilities He has given us to be used for His glory. "Delightful, insightful teaching on God's Word" — Max Lucado "Alistair compels us clearly and biblically to know the joy of pleasing God in our relationships, successes and failures, and other strategic aspects of our lives." — Joseph M. Stowell

Download or read book Unanswered written by Nancy Fitzgerald and published by . This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there absolute Truth? If there is, can we know it? The answer to this question is not found in our opinions, nor is it found in religions that contradict one another. Then there is Jesus who says, "I am the way, the truth and the life." This study will take you deeper in your faith as it will answer many questions about who you are through the eyes of Jesus, who God is as He defines Himself and what your purpose is in this life. Upon completing "Unanswered", we expect you to be more informed about Jesus and the Bible, better responders to those who have questions and are in need answers and brighter lights that reflect Jesus by the way you live and love others. "Unanswered...smoke, mirrors and God" is the result of the partnership of Anchorsaway and Cross Section Ventures. It is a 21-lesson small group study designed for all ages. Each lesson begins with a cutting edge video clip followed by a short study and discussion questions. To go deeper, the Unanswered book that accompanies the study guide can be read. The title of this project reflects the confusion that many of us have about God. The definition of smoke and mirrors is, "Cover-up: something that is intended to draw attention away from something else that somebody would prefer to remain unnoticed." (Bing dictionary) It is the intention of this study to free people from religious demands and from performing for God and others in hopes of being "good enough for God". We think that by working through the entire study, you will get a fresh, perhaps new perspective, as to how God loves and equips us to make a difference in this world beginning with our own families at home, in the church or at the workplace.
