Book excerpt: "I have for many years been deeply spiritually touched, fed and challenged by Bill's poems that he writes as his own heart is moved by God." -Bill Thrall, former pastor/elder at Open Door Fellowship Church in Phoenix Az, currently part of the leadership& author at Trueface Ministries in Phoenix, Az "Bill Folz, a passionate, mature, and trusted follower of Jesus has for 40 plus years pointed people to the heart and character of God through his poems. Bill spends long hours and short minutes with God, waits for His voice, then pens words of encouragement and hope that woo the reader to trust and to live in God's Sabbath rest. He never offers platitudes because he knows that it is in the real world of everyday life where God wants to meet us and gently call us to lean into Him. All of us that have read his poetry through the years have been built up in our faith, comforted in our pain, and blessed by God's care through his words. Many years ago Bill heard God call him to be a "doctor to His people," and his poems have been a part of the living out of this calling. I am honored and privileged to know Bill and get to do life with him." -Louise Sedgwick, Pastor of Adult Ministries at Open Door Fellowship Church in Phoenix, Az "Bill is a present day King David. A mighty man who writes our every season of life with God in profound beauty. And if you walked around with him for a few days, you'd discover he is not only a gifted writer but an authentic human. That's what makes these poems so important." -John Lynch, former elder at Open Door Fellowship Church, co-author of "The Cure", from Trueface Ministries in Phoenix, Az.

Book excerpt: Elizabeth is at a crossroad. She's been given the chance to experience life outside of her community, away from the responsibility to care for her eight younger siblings, but Elizabeth Bontrager can't decide which road to take. Goshen has its charms and pressures, but Paradise, Pennsylvania, sounds . . . well, like paradise. And it's also home to her Englisch friend, Paula. Decision made. Elizabeth is Paradise bound. But will the small town live up to its name? When Elizabeth meets Paula's friend, Bruce, she quickly learns he wants more than a friendship. And the same might be true of Saul Miller, her new boss at the country story that sells Amish products to the Englisch community. As the two compete for her attention, Elizabeth is surprised to realize she misses her family and becomes even more uncertain about where she belongs. She has a choice to make: return home or embrace this new life and possibly a new love?
Download or read book Hearing God in Conversation written by Sam Williamson and published by Kregel Publications. This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I picked it up out of curiosity and I couldn’t put it down."--Eugene Peterson Christians are comfortable saying that Christianity is about a relationship with God. Yet many might also say that they sense little meaningful relationship with God in their own lives. After all, the foundation of good relationship is communication—-but conversation with God often seems to go only one way. We may sing of walking and talking with God in the garden, His voice falling on our ears, but few have heard that beloved voice themselves. Sam Williamson acknowledges the fundamental human longing to hear God’s voice and offers a hopeful supposition: God is always speaking—-we’ve just never been taught how to recognize His voice. Williamson handles this potentially heady topic with his characteristic straightforwardness and leavening humor. This book deftly bridges the gap between solid biblical theology and practical application, addressing topics such as how to truly pray without ceasing, how to brainstorm with God, how to navigate our emotions, how to answer God’s questions, and how to hear God’s voice for others. Hearing God in Conversation offers simple, step-by-step lessons on how to hear God. Williamson begins with Scripture meditation. He then expands the practice of listening for that voice everywhere—in the checkout line, on the job, in a movie theater, and even in silence. From there, he demonstrates how to hear God’s guidance when making any decision. By the end, readers’ eyes and ears will be opened to the limitless methods through which God speaks.

Book excerpt: This book takes readers on a profound journey through twelve intriguing and enigmatic topics drawn from the Bible, each revealing the depth and mystery of divine themes.

We delve into the Seven Spirits of God in Revelation, uncovering their symbolic significance and multifaceted roles. The narrative also brings to light dramatic manifestations of God’s power, including the parting of the Red Sea and Elijah’s fervent prayer for rain, showcasing divine intervention in critical moments. We examine various types of angels, their distinct roles, and their importance in the spiritual realm. The book also addresses eschatological elements such as the fall of the plagues and the mark of the beast, providing insight into the final stages of human history. Reflecting on the healing power of prayer and the timeless message of Psalm 23, we consider how these elements impact our spiritual lives. Additionally, the book explores signs like the end of grace and the time of trouble, offering a deeper understanding of these pivotal biblical themes. By engaging with these profound and often mysterious elements of scripture, readers are invited to gain a richer understanding of divine revelation and its significance in their spiritual journey.

Download or read book Religious Science Fiction in Battlestar Galactica and Caprica written by Jutta Wimmler and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did it seem strange when Battlestar Galactica ended its narrative on a religious note instead of providing a scientific explanation? And what does this have to do with gender? This book explores the connection between the triumph of religion and the dominance of femininity in Battlestar Galactica and its prequel series Caprica. Both series breached science fiction's convention of representing the "irrationality" of femininity and religion. Analyzing the connections (and disconnections) between women and men, and theology and technology, the author argues that the "Battlestarverse" depicts women as zones of contact between the seemingly contradictory spheres of science and religion by simultaneously employing and breaking gender stereotypes.
Download or read book Scripture On Scripture The Book of Revelation written by Jonathan Witt and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Scripture On Scripture: The Book of Revelation" is a Bible commentary written to explain this book of the Bible verse-by-verse, while also demonstrating how this book fits with the rest of Scripture. The Book of Revelation is one of the most unique and interesting books in all of the Bible. There is much debate between Christians about whose interpretation of Revelation is correct. This commentary is written from the perspective that the book of Revelation describes those things that are yet to come in the future, and most likely the near future. This commentary is written with several key beliefs in mind, namely, that Jesus Christ promised to literally return to rule over the Earth, that His return will be preceded by a seven year Tribulation Period of judgment from God upon the Earth, and that this Tribulation Period will be initiated by a supernatural Rapture of His Church from the Earth.

Download or read book God Harlem U S A written by Jill Watts and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1992-01-10 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did an African-American man born in a ghetto in 1879 rise to such religious prominence that his followers addressed letters to him simply "God, Harlem U.S.A."? Using hitherto unknown materials, Jill Watts portrays the life and career of one of the twentieth century's most intriguing religious leaders, Father Divine. Starting as an itinerant preacher, Father Divine built an unprecedented movement that by the 1930s had attracted followers across the nation and around the world. As his ministry grew, so did the controversy surrounding his enormous wealth, flamboyant style, and committed "angels"—black and white, rich and poor alike. Here for the first time a full account of Father Divine's childhood and early years challenges previous contentions that he was born into a sharecropping family in the deep South. While earlier biographers have concentrated on Father Divine's social and economic programs, Watts focuses on his theology, which gives new meaning to secular activities that often appeared contradictory. Although much has been written about Father Divine, God, Harlem U.S.A. finally provides a balanced and intimate account of his life's work.
