Download or read book Rewire Your Heart written by David Bowden and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bible teacher and acclaimed spoken-word artist David Bowden reveals the secret to winning the battle with sin. Many Christians believe the only way to fight sin is to grit our teeth, strengthen our resolve, and rise above the onslaught of temptation. But in reality, we have a far better weapon in our struggle with sin than the will-power mantras associated with diet and exercise. This weapon is not saying "no" to sin but saying "yes" to God. In Rewire Your Heart, David Bowden helps us discover God's plan to overcoming sin by rewiring our desires with the Gospel. When we invite the Holy Spirit to transform our underlying affections with the good news of Jesus, we begin to break free from the patterns of sin, guilt, and determination, and discover the richer fulfillment found in joyfully obeying God's commands.
Download or read book Looking upon the Heart written by Pete Carlson, MFT and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BY LOOKING UPON THE HEART WE CAN ALL BE CHANGED IN AN INSTANT AND LIVE LIFE MORE ABUNDANTLY! The mystery of the biblical heart is unveiled by integrating psychology and Scripture to delineate the five dispositions of the heart, the choice of which we morph into could either enhance or hinder the attainment of abundant life in Christ. Throughout time, people have been searching for the meaning of life and the way to find fulfillment. It is the intention of this book to show how, by Looking upon the Heart, where Jesus may live, we can actualize healing and holiness at any moment in time. In this in-depth, Christian psychology and self-help/textbook, the reader is enlightened as to what good and bad choices we can make about our character and personality; the goal is to consistently be transformed (morphed) out of the unhealthy dispositions of the heart (the broken heart and the hard heart) into healthier ones (the open heart, sweet heart, and the brave heart). Our first basic premise is that we all, believers and unbelievers alike, can and do spontaneously morph continually in and out of various dispositions, character states and personality styles, and so are capable of immediate transformation. The second premise is that grace must prevail; we all would be hypocrites if we judged, because we are all morphing, having our good moments and bad, at any particular moment in real time. Ultimately the overall perspective is that the heart should be the most important human entity known to man. The heart is the primary gatekeeper and decision-maker and, therefore, the overall determiner of the whole person's behavior, personal growth, and spiritual maturity. We are to embrace a complete understanding of the biblical heart, its five dispositions, in order to overcome psychological, behavioral and relational dysfunction and sin. Only then can we successfully and consistently experience oneness with God through Jesus, living and actively operating within our hearts. As a result of "Looking upon the Heart," the Lord reigns and leads us to a life of victory in Jesus.

Download or read book Hardwired written by James Miller and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a vast Christian audience that longs for clear explanations in their “case for God” that gives them reason, confidence, and the language to effectively communicate their belief. Hardwired is that book, that confidence, that accessible wisdom and that language! Christian apologetics remains a popular and widely-read genre, with works like The Case for Christ selling millions of copies and Reasonable Faith making inroads into academic discussion. However, those works often rely on scholars to give them a confusing new language for their own faith. Hardwired is altogether different. Miller begins with the language of our own lives: seekers / questioners / ”Nones” and “Somes” who need only to examine their lives, their human existence, to find God. Like a baseball player who has delved into physics while simply trying to get on base, humanity has inferred God’s existence from daily life. Building on the biblical principle that God’s existence is plain in what He has made, Hardwired makes the case for our natural lives giving us a language for God’s existence. Filled with humor, metaphor, and whimsy, Hardwired will empower the layperson to find God without a Ph.D. It’s readable and fun, even as it rests on a credible, scholarly foundation.
Download or read book Hardwired Neglect of the Heart written by Ramona Pedron and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Take a view into the raw living that occurs in households across the planet as it is displayed in this fictionalized personal memoir of an abuse survivor who is determined to collect the data required to sort out reality, survive, and most importantly, tread the narrow path of life that forces you to choose between following the blueprint set before you, or to draw a new one. Ramona Pedron tells this gripping true story of life under the horrific reign of an abusive, tyrannical mother. As a very young child, Monica is handed over to an aunt and uncle, whom she calls her mother and father. She is happy with them and content in her life, until at the age of seven she is returned to her real mother and stepfather. Monica and her younger sister, Carmen, and her older brother, Tony, are subjected to their mother's daily tirades and their stepfather's willing silence as they grow up in an acutely dysfunctional family. Monica's mother isn't just a control freak-she is determined that whatever her children ask for, long for, or desire, she will give them the opposite. Her punishments for the slightest infraction are extreme. Suspecting Monica has done something against her wishes, she slashes and smashes Monica's possessions, including her private journal and all of her clothing. Humiliation is her weapon of choice, and she wields it at the slightest provocation. Things aren't any better for Monica at school, where she is troubled-and failing-both socially and academically. By the time she reaches junior high, she is voted "dog of the school" by the beautiful and popular students. She escapes into a world of recreational drugs and alcohol, attending classes only when it suits her. Then, in high school, a light shines into Monica's life in the form of Miss Cohen, a counselor and mental health professional who takes Monica under her wing. With someone safe to talk to, Monica gradually reveals her family's story, including the hidden sexual abuse from her early childhood. She begins to see that her life's circumstances are survivable and surmountable. Even as an adult, however, Monica can't completely escape the tyranny of her mother's behavior. She leaves home and builds a life for herself that includes a partner and a daughter-and an addiction to alcohol. Over the years, as she struggles to break the grip of addiction and cope with the mounting demands of her aging parents, she ultimately realizes that she is a survivor. She learns that she can triumph over the pain of her childhood, even to the point of doing what was once unthinkable-loving her mother.

Download or read book Hardwired written by Walter Jon Williams and published by Night Shade. This book was released on 2006-10-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ears ago, the last desperate hopes of Earth were crushed as corporate Orbital blocs ruling from on high devastated the planet's face. Today, the autocratic Orbitals indulge in decadent luxury far above the mudboys, dirtgirls, zonedancers, and buttonheads who live out violent lives of electronic distraction and dependence amid the flooded, ruined cities and teeming slums of a balkanized America. But there are heroes; those who would stand against the Orbital powers and keep freedom's cause alive. Two such heroes are the metal-eyed ex-fighter pilot turned panzer-driver Cowboy, and Sarah, the cybernetic assassin desperate to find a better life for her drug-addicted brother. Together, Cowboy and Sarah embark on a high-octane odyssey across the shattered face of the American west. From Walter Jon Williams comes Hardwired, the hard-hitting, seminal classic that feels as prescient today as when it was first published. Like a steel-guitar fueled Damnation Alley, as directed by Sam Peckinpah, Hardwired demonstrates how Williams's singular vision helped defined the cyberpunk genre.

Download or read book Until It Ropes Like Okra written by Don Barbera and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-04-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until it Ropes Like Okra: Rhymes in the Vernacular is a collection of poems filled with slang, street talk, dangling participles, split infinitives, double negatives, double entendres, cursing (cussin' if you're from the Midwest) and just about every offense ever committed against the king's or Queen's English (depending on your point of view). If I do not succeed in making you laugh, embarrassing you, offending you or making you think then I have missed my goal. Until it Ropes Like Okrastarted out as a bunch of poems about my experiences in the community where I grew up. It was a time of playing with words, telling outrageous stories and rhyming in classic street-corner fashion. The poems cover a wide gamut, but I tried to limit the selection to poems that related to the Black Experience. This is intended to be easy and fun reading — not work. I haven't tried to reach over any ones head. I hope that it will entertain and amuse. Or, it may dismay and offend. It might even bring a tear to your eye. Hopefully, you will not be indifferent.
