Download or read book After You Believe written by N. T. Wright and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the acclaimed Simply Christian and Surprised by Hope comes a book that addresses the question that has plagued humans for centuries—what is our purpose? As Christians, what are we to do with that ambiguous time between baptism and the funeral? It's easy to become preoccupied with who gets into heaven; the real challenge is how we are going to live in the here and now. Wright dispels the common misconception that Christian living is nothing more than a checklist of dos and don'ts. Nor is it a prescription to "follow your heart" wherever it may lead. Instead, After You Believe reveals the Bible's call for a revolution—a transformation of character that takes us beyond our earthly pursuit of money, sex, and power into a virtuous state of living that allows us to reflect God and live more worshipful, fulfilling lives. We are all spiritual seekers, intuitively knowing there is more to life than we suspect. This is a book for anyone who is hoping there is something more while we're here on Earth. There is. We are being called to join the revolution, and Wright insightfully encourages readers to find new purpose and clarity by taking us on an eye-opening journey through key biblical passages that promise to radically alter the work of the church and the direction of our lives.

Download or read book Christian Character written by Ernest R. Larkins and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers twenty-six Christian character traits with narrower groupings for regeneration, the Ten Commandments, the Beatitudes, fruit of the Spirit, core traits, family and friends, romantic relationships, work ethics, struggles in life, and decision-making. Brainstorming sessions, hymn sings, intriguing insights, movie nights, nature studies, and other activities generate interest. A precise, multi-faceted definition of the trait sets the scope. Within each lesson, the first section addresses the question, "Why does character matter?" The specific answer unfolds through two key verses and two Bible characters. Section two responds to the question, "What does Christian character look like?" It examines the trait more closely and explores applications. The last section answers the question, "How can believers improve their character?" Mere self-effort does not produce godly results. Only the Holy Spirit's power can enable anyone to keep the moral law and, thus, cultivate Christian traits. Believers must seek to understand God's desire and then petition him for godly results. To encourage the latter, participants complete a "Heart Assessment, Reflection, and Petition" (HARP) chart to examine their lives and consider areas for change. The closing prayer acknowledges past failures and petitions the Spirit for divine strength to improve Christian character.

Download or read book Godly Heretics written by Marc DiPaolo and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-04-08 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When computers freeze, they are "rebooted" and soon working properly again. Similarly, legendary thinkers throughout history have argued that Christianity should start fresh by recapturing the humanitarian spirit of Jesus' original message. These include such disparate individuals as Thomas Jefferson, Oscar Wilde, Charles Dickens, Walt Whitman, Friedrich Nietzsche, Leo Tolstoy, George Bernard Shaw, and the religious leaders of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Surprisingly enough, even classic television shows and films meant to be entertaining--Lost, Battlestar Galactica, It's a Wonderful Life, Groundhog Day, Decalogue, and A Charlie Brown Christmas--are attempts to apply the basic principles of Christianity to modern times. This book offers new essays by scholars of literature, film, history, theology and philosophy examining how various thinkers and storytellers over time have conceived of a reinvented Christianity. In confronting this controversial idea, this book examines how unorthodox interpretations of the Bible can be some of the most valid, how visions of Jesus as a revolutionary may be the most historically sound, and how compassionate Christians such as Origen have wrestled with the eternal questions of the existence of evil, the gift of free will and the promise of universal salvation.

Download or read book Godly Relationships written by Dr Amanda Pool and published by Digital on Demand. This book was released on 2021-04 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author discusses different aspects from a Biblical perspective what she has learned through her journey growing into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ, and others. She reflects on scriptural insights to help the reader see through a different lens how one’s relationship with Jesus Christ is the ultimate basis to determine the way one will interact, not only in the religious arena but also in other areas, and more specifically in business, in the market place. This is not only about an opportunity to grow in relationships, in godly character, or Biblical excellence but also about listening and being obedient to God’s voice. The question is asked: if are you one of the chosen ones and by hearing God’s voice, will you be obedient and partake in her Kingdom-building-godly business, or if you have your own, change the way you run your business and influence others? Your relationship with Jesus Christ is indeed the determining factor in how you live your life and influence others. Other aspects that are discussed will give more insights as to the hows and the what-nexts, and it might just shift some of your perceptions and paradigms in the process : • Significance • Paradigms and Renewing Your Mind • Godly Kings in the marketplace • Money and Stewardship • Growing the Numbers • God’s many, many promises in His Word for example : Romans 12:2: “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed (changed) by the (entire) renewing of your mind, (by its new ideals and its new attitude) so that you may prove (for yourselves) what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect (in His sight for you).” (AMP) Romans 15:4: “For whatever was written in former days, was written for our instruction, that by endurance and encouragement from the scriptures we might hold fast and cherish hope.” (AMP)

Download or read book They Were Single Too Eight Biblical Role Models written by David M. Hoffeditz and published by Kregel Publications. This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Singleness is not a sin that needs to be redeemed. Yet for many single Christians, the way the church regards them often feels condemning. Living between these truths can be a painful, frustrating experience. By examining eight individuals from Scripture who were single at some point in their adult lives--Paul, Anna, Martha, Jeremiah, Ruth, Joseph, Nehemiah, and John the Baptist--Hoffeditz guides readers through common struggles singles face, such as loneliness and disappointment. Hoffeditz isn't offering a self-help guide, a twelve-step program to recovery, or philosophical musings. They Were Single Too spells out concrete steps for a healthy, God-approved attitude toward unmarried life and how one can truly serve God without a spouse. Brief chapters with questions for reflection allow for either individual or group study. Long used as a resource for singles ministries, this revised edition updates the language of this timeless biblical study and makes it more attractive for today's reader.
