Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you had face time with God what would you want to talk about? Inside are conversations in the form of poems to God. The poems vary from funny to heartfelt and serious discussions with God. Some of the poems may be thoughts and/or questions you may have wondered and never thought to address them with God. The poems are not to instruct one on how to pray but to give insight that there are no subjects whether serious or comical that we cannot discuss with God. The book also has a prayer to share; each prayer poem is written twice with one to keep and one to share. Fredah El was born in Florida, a US veteran and currently living in New Mexico. Throughout my travels of life I have been asking questions. Some of the questions I could not get answers for and it prompted me to writing my questions to God in the form of poems.

Download or read book When God Talks Back written by T.M. Luhrmann and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.

Download or read book Fierce Marriage written by Ryan Frederick and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

Download or read book God Talk written by Ruth A. Tucker and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does God speak?The answer seems clear. Books abound on the topic of hearing God's voice. And many believers testify to God's conversational guidance in their life: "God told me to help you." "I knew it was God speaking to me."Our culture reinforces the idea that speaking--constant speaking--is good and natural and essential. In those rare moments during a day when talking ceases or when we're alone, we quickly find some way to fill the void, whether turning on the television or radio, or calling someone on the phone. With others, and especially with God, we get the message: speaking is good, silence is bad.But still, Ruth Tucker is not afraid to ask the question, "Does God speak?" And her answer might surprise you. She urges caution in speaking about hearing God, pointing out that our privatized spirituality often sets those who hear God on a pedestal and leaves those who don't feeling spiritually inferior. Further, she shows how the expectation of conversation may too easily humanize God in our minds, causing us to approach God with the same attitude we have when we call a friend on the phone. And if God does speak, how can we be sure our own desires are not affecting our interpretation of God's voice?InGod TalkTucker offers us a new paradigm for viewing silence and prayer. Rather than feeling inferior when we don't hear God speak, she helps us lean more deeply on his silent, Spirit-inspired Word. By examining the Trinity, Tucker gives us a new glimpse of how God the Father spoke his words in the past, how Christ the Incarnate Word lived among us, and how the Holy Spirit speaks to us now through Scripture. Here is a probing, thought-provoking read on how our present, active, powerful God relates to us and how we, in turn, should relate to God.

Download or read book Losing to Gain written by Carolyn Ridgell Andersen and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-07-29 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Matthew 16:2426 (KJV) says Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Our life is more fulfilled and meaningful when we surrender our will to God. Life definitely will hand you surprises, unexpected losses or disappointments but follow Jesus. Allow God to take control, to lead and guide you in everything concerning your life. Only God can take less and do more; take nothing and make something out of it. And God receives the glory. What we consider to be a loss will be a great gain when we are in a relationship with Jesus Christ. It is all about accepting his love, walking in it, living a life that displays it. In a relationship with him, we learn true humility; we develop a prayer life and learn what should have destroyed us only made us stronger. You are uniquely gifted and have an assignment to fulfill in the body of Christ. As stated by the Apostle Paul in Romans 12:1(KJV) that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service, and then you will be on a journey destined for greatness.
