Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A frank discussion on the biblical standards for purity, written for young adults. "Thank you, Pastor Garcia, for writing a book that addresses a crisis in progress for both youth and adults. It is saddening to read that, "Thirty-three percent of all married born-again believers experience divorce, nearly the same as the 34 percent of non born-again adults." This book is both thorough and thought-provoking. It offers solutions and guidelines that are very helpful. Your research and insights as to how faulty patterns in courtship and marriage are developed, and how children and parents can pursue a godly strategy together is a must read for all youth, parents, and those in the ministry." ~Bill Bright, Found and Chairman, Campus Crusade for Christ "Thanks to Pastor Garcia for doing a masterful job of addressing this vital subject and for offering step-by-step help for all to follow the teachings of our Lord concerning dating, courtship, and marriage. ~Evan Paul, Editor, Global Pastors Network

Download or read book Awaken Love written by Ruth Buezis and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-17 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For wives who are starving for real intimacy-and searching for real answers. This isn't a book about sex-though Ruth Buezis offers plenty of suggestions to help you enjoy that with your husband. Instead, it's about transformation. A transformation so radical that it can only come from God. By "getting naked" with readers, Ruth bares her journey of discovering an incredible sex life with her husband of over twenty years built on simple concepts of intimacy and small details of creative intentionality-and invites women into the delights awaiting them in their own marriages. Using the platform of her Awaken Love small group curriculum, she dares to ask the question: Why have we built a chasm between being godly and being sensual? Whether purity messages in the church felt manipulative and set you up for failure, you've experienced past sexual trauma or abuse, or you've allowed yourself to believe lies about your own beauty, Ruth invites you into a community ready for change and deeper intimacy. In doing so, she opens the door for wives to embrace freedom and become truly known in their marriages.

The same power that raised Christ from the dead is now at work inside of us. This book unpacks each of the pieces of spiritual armor Paul describes in Ephesians 6, inviting us to take up the armor each day, all while resting in the finished victory of Christ and the assurance that our strength for the battle comes from him.

Download or read book The Four Loves written by C. S. Lewis and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Four Loves is a 1960 book by C. S. Lewis which explores the nature of love from a Christian and philosophical perspective through thought experiments. The book was based on a set of radio talks from 1958 which had been criticized in the U.S. at the time for their frankness about sex. C.S. Lewis examines storge or empathy love; philia, friendship love; eros, romantic love; and agape, or God love. Excerpt: "GOD is love," says St. John. When I first tried to write this book I thought that his maxim would provide me with a very plain highroad through the whole subject. I thought I should be able to say that human loves deserved to be called loves at all just in so far as they resembled that Love which is God."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On December 8, 2017, at 2:30 a.m., a voice woke me up, saying, "Get up and write this down." I woke up with this scripture and wrote it down:Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and they shall become one flesh.Therefore what God has joined together let no one separate. (Mark 10:9)I wrote down: "What do I do about Buddy?" and the Holy Spirit replied, "Do you think he is your husband? Lay him on the altar, pray for him, don't move, don't do anything, wait on Me, I will show you a sign. If he is your husband, it will be so because it is predestined."At the time, I didn't understand the clear revelation. All I heard was "Lay him on the altar." It broke my heart, but I knew it was time to walk in complete obedience.With Love to My Future Husband is a journal to a man God revealed to me is my husband. Exactly nine months before I met Buddy, the Lord told me to prepare and position myself. My husband is on his way. Of course, I didn't listen, and when I met this man, I wasn't in the right place, and I couldn't receive him. I take you on my journey of how I gave up a man I could touch and feel for a Man I couldn't see.Throughout my journey, I have learned that in order for me to walk out my assignment on the earth, I have to be whole, complete, and healed. My story shows the value of an intimate relationship with my heavenly Father and how God taught me to listen to and trust the still small voice inside.10

Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Download or read book Count God In written by Loren F. Bliese and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of Song of Songs uncovers many patterns related to the numerical value twenty-six and related numbers for the divine name YHWH. Patterns are so unique that they clearly show authorial intent. They involve the numerical value of root forms of words, their sequences, and their totals in the book. The beloved man is highlighted by special patterns, which indicate that a typology for God is intended. Deer names in the refrain have number patterns that confirm intention for being circumlocutions for divine names. The disputed presence of the divine name YH in 8:6 is confirmed by the value of its full word. One of the most striking patterns found with the help of a computer is that the totals of root words are all arranged to point to theological numbers in a beautiful intricacy. Besides describing these patterns, this study discusses numerical competence within a proposed Hebrew literary circle, and what steps they might have gone through to create these amazing phenomena. These theological numbers confirm intentionality for allusions to the Hebrew Bible and support a hermeneutic of spiritual applications. A literary analysis of each poem focuses on the use of numbers among other features of prominence.
