Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Right man...wrong color? LaShondra has done the work on herself first. She's gotten her education and, more importantly, developed a strong relationship with Christ. Now, she's ready for a man-but not just any man. She wants a Boaz, a godly man...who's gainfully employed...and it would hurt if he looked good, too. God answers with three out of three, but there's a twist: her perfect man, Stelson Brown, isn't African-American. While LaShondra's parents are happy about her professional success, they're chomping at the bit for her to get married. Her father (who wouldn't even let her bring her white friends home from school) and her mother (who's gets word about the white man through the church folk grapevine) will have more than a few words for her when they find out-if LaShondra ever gets around to telling her family and friends about Stelson. The racial climate at LaShondra's job isn't helping the situation. LaShondra suspects that the principal is buffering grades for certain students. Can she keep her integrity while keeping her job as vice principal? Boaz Brown is the first novel of bestselling novelist Michelle Stimpson. In essence, it launched her career as a writer and is still one of her best-loved works.

Download or read book WAITING written by Donna Saunders-Morgan and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-11-02 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Waiting: Your Prayer Is Heard, was birthed in me by God from Him bringing me through the waiting process to fulfilling His will for my life. Until your prayer concerning your desires are manifested and your faith becomes sight, it can be a difficult process to go through. I thank God for the delay to help me understand how He works. Waiting: Your Prayer Is Heard shows my waiting process, the Lord revealing to me Luke 1:13: "Fear not Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son and thou shalt call his name John." The Bible already declared that Elisabeth and Zacharias were stricken in years, which in my estimation was not praying for a child at that point, but during their early marriage and childbearing years. The Lord revealed to me their prayer went ahead of them, He delayed their answer, causing Elisabeth's barrenness until His appointed time, as John, their son, was selected to be the forerunner of Jesus Christ. It was a special birth due to the work John was chosen to do, he had to be born in the timeline of Jesus and was 6months older. This story and revelation were clear in my waiting period as I saw the hand of God in answering all my prayers in a specific way when God revealed my husband. I was able to see every unique conversation I had with the Lord through the years being packaged in him whom God sent, but I had to wait until God completed His work in him. We must know God hears our prayers despite the answer not coming immediately at times. We also must understand that God knows us best, and He is able to make the choice for us instead of us making it for ourselves. We can receive God's permissive will, but there is a joy that comes when we wait for the fulfillment of His divine will in our lives. Whatever you are praying for to be fulfilled in your life, as you wait, inquire of God what He wants you to do. This book highlights the processes you will encounter, ways to avoid distractions and the steps to take in maintaining your blessing when God has fulfills His promises to you.

Gods love for you my sister, is steadfast, perpetual and beyond description. God wants you to know today that he is with you and has not forgotten about you. I know your adversary has been trying to wear you down and make you give up and walk away from God. He wants you to believe that God does not love you-that he does not care about you. He will tell you that it will never happen for you, that youre getting old, that youre not pretty enough and no one will want you. These are lies, all lies! Sister, can I please tell you that what God is planning for you is far greater than anything you can plan for yourself. Whatever you do, dont give up, you cannot walk away from God! You must take God at His Word and know that he will come through for you. The man that God has for you is worth waiting for. Wait on the Lord, my Sister and again I say, Wait! You will NOT be disappointed if you wait on God. Sure, you can go out and get your own man. Of course you can. You can hook yourself up! But, if you do that, youll end up with someone that is not Gods best for you. Dont cheat yourself, Sister. God will not fail you. Hold on to God and let Him hold on to you. The rest of your life will be the best of your life. Let God write your love story. Wow! What an awesome conference, focused on one theme: encouraging women to wait on the Lord! None of us need to go to one more conference, unless its the right conference. While Im Waiting is the right conference. Dr. Cheri Pavi Givens

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lessons from Ladies of Faith is a book that demonstrates that the ladies we read about in the Scripture were real women, living actual lives. God gave us a record of their challenges, struggles, and victories as lessons that we can apply to our lives today. From the ladies chronicled in this guide, we can learn lessons about courage, commitment, submission to God, dedication to new challenges, and so much more. As we study Eve, Sarah, Mary, Dorcas, and the other women, we will learn that the paths they walked are not so different from the ones we tread today. Through their stories, we can gain insight into the victories of faith that God desires for the modern day Christian woman. Some lessons teach us of His majesty, others of His grace, while others encourage us to explore new levels of spiritual adventure. Whether you are an earnest Christian believer or someone who is curious about the Christian life, there is much to learn about the journey of faith on this path of exploration. Lessons from Ladies of Faith chronicles thirteen different areas of a life of faith illustrated by the lives of different women in the Bible. By application to our present day lives, hopefully, we will come to understand our own life journey through those of these women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible tells us that before the foundations of the earth, the Lord knew us. He knew everything about us, even before we were formed in our mothers' wombs. And he has even counted every hair on our heads! Yet many of us forget that we have his divine finger upon our spirits, and sometimes when things go God's way instead of our own way, we can feel impatient or abandoned. In this book, author Shamonda Dunton shares the real-life journey of her and her husband's experience with doubt, struggles, and disappointments in the midst of their desires to have a child and start a family. Yet this devoted couple was able to face the challenge of faith and find strength while waiting on the promises of God to manifest themselves, even when years of waiting didn't turn out as expected. But they learned from the experience and now share with fellow believers that everything is according to God's time and will-it just takes patience and the imagination to recognize and accept God's blessings when they come.

Download or read book A Sweet and Bitter Providence written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex. Race. Scripture. Sovereignty. The book of Ruth entails them all. So readers shouldn't be fooled by its age, says Pastor John Piper. Though its events happened over 3,000 years ago, the story holds astounding relevance for Christians in the twenty-first century. The sovereignty of God, the sexual nature of humanity, and the gospel of God's mercy for the undeserving-these massive realities never change. And since God is still sovereign, and we are male or female, and Jesus is alive and powerful, A Sweet and Bitter Providence bears a message for readers from all walks of life. But be warned, Piper tells his audience: This ancient love affair between Boaz and Ruth could be dangerous, inspiring all of us to great risks in the cause of love.

This book was released on 2021-08-02 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Gérard Genette first coined the term in 1972, focalization has been recognized as one ofthe key concepts in contemporary understandings of narrative. However, in the field of biblical studies, the concept has been largely overlooked. Dr. Konstantin Nazarov seeks to rectify this oversight, exploring the implications of focalization on Old Testament narratology. Utilizing the work of Wolf Schmid and Valeri Tjupa to develop his methodology – and examining the book of Ruth as a case study – Nazarov demonstrates the value of focalization in furthering the appreciation and understanding of biblical texts. This is an excellent resource for students of narratology, biblical studies scholars, or anyone seeking to better understand the narratives of Scripture.
