Download or read book Crossroads My Journey of Words written by Russ McKell and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-04-17 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I guess I've always believed that while life is a journey; the destination is secondary. How we travel is everything. The moment is important; the now is all we have. Living for tomorrow is a waste of time. If we wait till tomorrow to appreciate, love, change or apologize, then we'll be waiting a very long time. Because tomorrow never comes. There is only today ' there is only this moment. So I'm a big believer in stopping to smell the roses or listening to the music on the your journey. The journey is what's important. I'm not saying that the destination is completely unimportant. It's not. It gives us direction. But if the destination is the goal, it seems like we're missing out on a whole heck of a lot of important stuff. So I guess I have some things to say about my journey so far.

Download or read book Gay Latter Day Saint Crossroads written by Evan Smith and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evan Smith believed the anti-gay messages he heard in church during his childhood, which contributed to some negative views he held toward LGBTQ people. Later, as a bishop and then a counselor in a stake presidency, his heart softened as church members came to him seeking guidance about feeling attracted to others of the same gender. Evan's investigating and study became personal when his own son came out as gay. In this topically navigable book, Evan tackles the issues with a lawyer's mind and a penetrating analysis of scriptures and church doctrine. He addresses such questions as these: "What insights apply from the end of polygamy and the race-based priesthood/temple ban?" "Why do I stay in the church?" and, most importantly, "What words are hurtful/helpful to LGBTQ people and their families?"

Download or read book Angels at the Crossroads written by Ann H. Gabhart and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-01-26 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chase was over. In April 1969, nineteen-year-old Jerry Shepherd stares in his rearview mirror at the two policemen approaching his car. He wants to run, make his escape, perhaps his final escape from life. Then he curls his fingers around the small Bible in his back pocket as the words Peace be still whisper through his head. He holds to those words as he steps from the car to handcuffed and arrested. Angels at the Crossroads is the compelling true story of Shepherd's amazing journey from wrongdoing to redemption. Convicted of a crime he can hardly believe he could have committed, Shepherd faces life in prison and fears not only that he won't survive behind bars, but also that he has stepped beyond the hope of prayer or forgiveness. His parents say no as they cover him with fervent prayers, but Shepherd must find his own way through the jungle of prison life to the people - earth angels - who can help him discover God's love knows no limit. On this pilgrimage to self-acceptance, Shepherd learns to forgive the past and completely and unconditionally love again. If you face a crossroads in your life, Shepherd's inspirational journey may help lead you down a new pathway to a life filled with compassion and love. Visit author Ann H.

Book excerpt: This collection has been a journey into homeless, mental and physical health and self discovery. Like the poems from my older collections, I try more than anything to give you a moment in time. My poems are not about revealing me but revealing you.

Download or read book Paul at the Crossroads of Cultures written by Kathy Ehrensperger and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on recent studies in intercultural communication Kathy Ehrensperger applies the paradigm of multilingualism, which includes the recognition of cultural distinctiveness, to the study of Paul. Paul's role as apostle to the nations is seen as the role of a go-between – as that of cultural translator. This role requires that he is fully embedded in his own tradition but must also be able to appreciate and understand aspects of gentile culture. Paul is viewed as involved in a process in which the meaning of the Christ event is being negotiated 'in the space between' cultures, with their diverse cultural coding systems and cultural encyclopaedias. It is argued that this is not a process of imposing Jewish culture on gentiles at the expense of gentile identity, nor is it a process of eradication of Jewish identity. Rather, Paul's theologizing in the space between implies the task of negotiating the meaning of the Christ event in relation to, and in appreciation of both, Jewish and gentile identity.

Download or read book Overview of God s Word The True North of our Faith written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-05-24 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is an epic masterpiece. There is a continuous flow to the Bible, and it does flow like a story. It is God’s story, told through numerous characters, events, adventures, trials, tribulations, and situations. There is nothing grander or more splendid than God’s story! This book is not a comprehensive study of the Bible, therefore, it is not a blow-by-blow account of every book and every story. Rather, it is a sweeping glance at what the Bible offers. We can only know the heart of God, who God truly is and understand His commandments, His teachings, His truths and values when we study and know the Word. The Bible is truly God’s Word and should shape our lives daily. If one reads the Bible as led by the Spirit, without a preconceived bias for finding errors or based on one’s education or understanding, one will find it to be a coherent, consistent, and relatively easy-to-understand book of God. It is the Truth, and so it is the light and lamp unto our feet and path. The Bible must be treated by disciples as all-sufficient and inerrant (without error) to lead us, guide us, teach us and show us the way and the will of God. The Word of God is real, alive, and powerful and the final authority on God’s will. As believers of God, we must know the Word, study it, love it, cherish it and abide by it for it is the source of eternal life, faith, salvation, freedom, spiritual food, growth, blessedness, purity, guidance, comfort, spiritual victory, assurance and of joy. May we know it to find our purpose and the meaning of life according to a great and awesome God.

Download or read book The Journey Continues from Groaning to Dancing written by Richard Jones and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-01-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a pure pleasure for me to be writing again. Fourteen years of being involved in teaching and school administration have claimed most of my hours and focus. My desire to write turned into thoughts of “someday...” or “next year I’m gonna...”. With departure from the business of the classroom, I once again have the freedom to commit myself to putting pen to paper (or I should say, “fingers to keyboard”). William Faulkner wrote, “It is the writer’s privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart.” That is my desire, and I appreciate your allowing me to be a small part of the “heart-lifting” process in your life. Since my last project, I have had several requests to write a sequel, a second prayer devotional. A discussion with my late father ended with a commitment to do so. It is with pleasure that I honor that commitment. Much of what I write is never seen by anyone but the Lord and me, but written words can live on as long as there are readers to see them. Michael Straczynski called it “immortality by proxy.”

Download or read book Crossroads written by Ted Huizinga and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the dismayed and disappointed disciples making their way back home to Emmaus the Sunday afternoon following the crucifixion of Jesus, the resurrected Lord came alongside them and taught them all things concerning Himself from the scriptures beginning with Moses and the prophets. From scripture, He showed them how a crucified Messiah fulfilled all which had been written concerning His redemptive work as Immanuel (God with us). He opened their eyes to understand God’s salvation plan for fallen man and His role in completing that work. This daily devotional seeks to show how scripture reveals the Lord Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, and He stands at the crossroads between eternal life with God and eternal life separated from God. It is my sincerest prayer and desire that you will see His glory reflected in the scriptural texts for each day, the associated meditations of my heart, and be compelled to take up your cross and follow Him to victory and glory. “To my wife, Carol and sons: Thomas, Michael and Solomon. I would not have written this book were it not for you and our mutual loved ones.”

Download or read book The Journey At The Crossroads written by James Lagoski and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2005-01-28 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most the poetry written into the pages of this book were created between 1999 and 2002. Although the first 2 books were already written, something kept telling me it was more important to just keep writing rather than publishing. My writing style was being compared to some of the most recognized poets and prophets in history. So this began a new interpretation of The Journey for me. I felt that the poems had to be crafted with feeling and emotion so the words were not just read but completely absorbed. This book contains some of the first poems I affectionately call my mental masterpieces. Short stories with a natural flow and rhyme scheme, each structured towards delivering some sort of message to the reader. A calculated perfection of mirrored thought meant to have the readers reflect upon themselves. Anyone who reads this book will find something that they relate to. I'm sure that some of these will really hit home. After all- They were written for you. You're the reason why I do what I do.

Download or read book The Journey written by Kathy West and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-08-11 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two prominent men, friends and leaders in their church—one an elder and the other a deacon—embark on a road trip. Their destination is a gathering of great Biblical leaders and teachers along with the best-known Christian musicians and singers where the elder is to deliver opening remarks. It’s a gathering to show the world where Christians stand on important issues. Knowing the trip will take almost two full days, they get an early morning start. As the day progresses, the deacon and elder stop for lunch and gas. This is where the journey starts to take a turn. The deacon notices a sick man in need, and the deacon insists he’s going to stay in town and help while the elder continues to the revival. The deacon spends his life in service to others, first as a true friend to the elder, then as a helping hand to the downtrodden and those tortured by grief, and finally as a mentor to a lost teenager. Without realizing it, his simple obedience to the still, quiet voice of God causes life-changing results in the people he meets. Those he helps see him as a beacon of light, or as the welcoming light the church is supposed to be to the lost and needy throughout the world.
