Book excerpt: Revised & Updated Edition! God is love. Crazy, relentless, all-powerful love. Have you ever wondered if we're missing it? It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe—the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor—loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. Whether you've verbalized it yet or not, we all know something's wrong. Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts—it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same. Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

Book excerpt: This book is the fruit of Fr. Dubay's many years of study and experience in spiritual direction and in it he synthesizes the teachings on prayer of the two great doctors of the Church on prayer--St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Avila--and the teaching of Sacred Scripture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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 Dump Your Junk written by Trish Zenczak and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, A Down-to-Earth Process for Removing Barriers and Obstacles to Discovering Your Inner Leader Trish Zenczak is one of America's truest survivors! As a survivor of childhood physical and sexual abuse she has overcome the need for angry rages, spiteful behavior, feelings of abandonment, and resenting those who left or victimized her. Remarkably, she found a way out of her promiscuous, partying lifestyle filled with destructive relationships by making wise and healthy choices to "clean up" in order to live a more positive and influential life of helping others. She attributes her success to her strong faith in God and to the discovery of her inner leader-an inner leader we all can access to help us triumph over anything. Her story is an inspiration to anyone --from those who have lived the life of abuse and abandonment to those who deal with typical life obstacles such as forgiveness, anger, or relationship issues. Along her journey many have asked her, "How did you beat the odds? How did you keep yourself from going down the wrong path? " Through this 30-day journey Trish shares wisdom and insight for dealing with life's obstacles and pain while giving us practical and real-life skills for climbing out of the pits and ruts of life. She also encourages us to allow God to work through us to discover our own quiet leader so we may share our story with others. Take the challenge as you ponder thought-provoking readings and questions that will require you to consider reasons, actions and excuses that hinder you from moving forward in life and having a more developed Christ-like mindset. "Trish Zenczak offers the timeless wisdom of the Scripture rightfully applied to the painful experiences of her life. Caution: This is not a book for people looking for another self-help exposé from someone who's never been there...this is real truth colliding with real life, in a way that is powerful, filled with purpose, and genuine healing. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to let the Lord shape the past into an amazing future." -- Dr. E. Dale Locke, Lead Pastor, Community of Hope Church
