Download or read book Walking on Water written by Norman Coggin and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did Jesus choose an imperfect man like Peter? How could He love a man like Peter? The reason we wonder is because behind, underneath, and wrapped around those questions is a deeper more personal one: how can Jesus love me? We relate to Peter, not because of his personality, but because he was every bit as flawed as we are. One moment, his faith stood strong, and the next, he opposed God’s will with his own. Peter was like us, with a desire for what is right but so inclined toward what is wrong. He was not exceptional by nature, but God used him exceptionally because he never stopped giving himself to God a little more completely after each lesson of the failure found in himself. What turned out to be Peter’s greatest strength was admitting his own weakness: his need for a Savior. Why did Jesus choose Peter? It was because of grace, always and only. Peter knew it and never stopped pointing others to Jesus. Walking on Water is for every follower of Christ who has fallen flat on his or her face and failed completely one time or another—or many times over. Jesus picked Peter up every time, and he’ll pick you up, too, whether you feel you deserve it or not.

Download or read book The Fisherman s Tomb written by John O'Neill and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Texas oilman. A brilliant female archaeologist. An unknown world underneath the Vatican. In 1939, a team of workers beneath the Vatican unearthed an early Christian grave. This surprising discovery launched a secret quest that would last decades — a quest to discover the long-lost burial place of the Apostle Peter. From earliest times, Christian tradition held that Peter — a lowly fisherman from Galilee, whom Christ made leader of his Church — was executed in Rome by Emperor Nero and buried on Vatican Hill. But his tomb had been lost to history. Now, funded anonymously by a wealthy American, a small army of workers embarked on the dig of a lifetime. The incredible, sometimes shocking, story of the 75-year search and its key players has never been fully told — until now. The quest would pit one of the 20th century’s most talented archaeologists — a woman — against top Vatican insiders. The Fisherman’s Tomb is a story of the triumph of faith and genius against all odds. ABOUT THE AUTHOR John O’Neill is a lawyer and #1 New York Times bestselling author. He has spent much of his life visiting and researching early Christian sites. He is a 1967 graduate of the Naval Academy, a former law clerk to Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist, and senior partner at a large international law firm.
Download or read book The Complete Angler written by James Prosek and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-11-16 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Prosek has been called "the Audubon of the fishing world" by the New York Times. A passionate fisherman and talented artist from a young age, he published two illustrated books on fish and fishing while still an undergraduate at Yale. After winning a traveling fellowship to follow in the footsteps of Izaak Walton, The Compleat Angler became his obsession. He was fascinated by Walton, a humble man who won the friendship of kings, and he was intrigued by the book's philosophies concerning the timelessness and immortality that could be achieved by fishing. Although Walton was sixty when The Compleat Angler was published and Prosek only twenty when he set off to visit England, they each had traits in common: a love of fishing and an extraordinary ability to make friends. This is the story of a young man's pilgrimage through England, fishing the waters that are now privately held. Along with wonderful stories about good times, great fishing, and fine eating, this trip becomes an exploration of Waltonian ideals: how to live with humor, wisdom, contentment, and simplicity. The original watercolors complementing the text are wonderful. Like Walton's book, The Complete Angler is not about fishing but about life. Or rather, it is about fishing—but fishing is life.
