Download or read book What Islam Did For Us written by Tim Wallace-Murphy and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these troubled times, when Islam is under seemingly perpetual attack, it is imperative to consider how much the West owes to the religion’s spiritual insights. Bestselling author Tim Wallace-Murphy presents the first major popular book to examine the common roots of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam and to reveal Islam’s immense contributions to our society—which included laying the foundations for our systems of education, astronomy, mathematics, and architecture. He also illustrates how the European Western powers helped foment the current crisis in the Middle East, and why we must strive for a just, equitable solution to these problems. Understanding can begin with this compelling acknowledgment of our shared spiritual heritage, including religious tolerance, respect for learning, and the concepts of chivalry and brotherhood.

Download or read book No More Faking Fine written by Esther Fleece Allen and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripture reveals a God who meets us where we are, not where we pretend to be. No More Faking Fine is your invitation to get honest with God through the life-giving language of lament. If you've ever been given empty clichés during challenging times, you know how painful it is to be misunderstood by well-meaning people. When life hurts, we often feel pressure--from others and ourselves--to keep it together, suck it up, or pray it away. But Scripture reveals a God who lovingly invites us to give honest voice to our emotions when life hits hard. For most of her life, Esther Fleece Allen believed she could bypass the painful emotions of her broken past by shutting them down altogether. She was known as an achiever and an overcomer on the fast track to success. But in silencing her pain, she robbed herself of the opportunity to be healed. Maybe you've done the same. Esther's journey into healing began when she discovered that God has given us a real-world way to deal with raw emotions and an alternative to the coping mechanisms that end up causing more pain. It's called lament--the gut-level, honest prayer that God never ignores, never silences, and never wastes. No More Faking Fine is your permission to lament, taking you on a journey down the unexpected pathway to true intimacy with God. Drawing from careful biblical study and hard-won insight, Esther reveals how to use God's own language to come closer to him as he leads us through our pain to the light on the other side, teaching you that: We are robbing ourselves of a divine mystery and a divine intimacy when we pretend to have it all together God does not expect us to be perfect; instead, he meets us where we are There is hope beyond your heartache, disappointment, and grief Like Esther, you'll soon find that when one person stops faking fine, it gives everyone else permission to do the same.

Download or read book Where Is God When It Hurts written by Philip Yancey and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2010-02-23 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gold Medallion Book Award Winner. Over a million copies sold. An inspirational classic for more than thirty years,?Where Is God When It Hurts??honestly explores pain—from physical wounds to emotional and spiritual pain—and sheds new light on God's presence in our suffering. "How can a loving God allow this to happen? God is either all-loving or all-powerful, but he can't be both." You've heard that question, and perhaps you've even asked it yourself. When a loved one dies, we receive a terminal diagnosis, or natural disasters strike, people often wonder whether God is the?cause?of suffering and why he doesn't immediately take away the pain or fix the situation. As a result, we become angry at the once-beloved God who betrayed us. Bestselling author Philip Yancey uses examples from the Bible and from his own experiences to show us how we can learn to accept—without blame, anger, or fear—what we don't understand. Along the way, he answers questions such as: Why is there such a thing as pain? Is pain a message from God? How should we respond to suffering? How can we learn to cope with pain? Where Is God When It Hurts??speaks to everyone who thinks that suffering doesn't make sense. With compassion and clarity, Yancey brings us one step closer to finding an answer when our pain, or the pain of those we love, is real and we are left wondering,?where is God when it hurts? "One of the most helpful treatments of the problem of evil that I've ever read. If I were looking around for something to give to individuals who are going through travail or difficulty, this is the book I'd recommend." —Dr. Vernon Grounds, former Chancellor of Denver Seminar

Download or read book Death Did Us Part written by Florence A. Juma and published by Word Alive Press. This book was released on 2019-01-23 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death Did Us Part presents a short story about the tumultuous marital relationship of a couple at the brink of divorce. The book, based on a true story, is a reflection on some of the pitfalls that plagued the marriage of Akawd and Muka and brought it to its deathbed. Interestingly, Akawd and Muka were both committed Christians and leaders in their church when they immigrated to Canada from Africa. By sharing this story, I provide an opportunity for readers to both understand better and safely observe the parallels that might exist between their own relationships and this couple’s. These patterns may then be named and safely externalized. The book also serves to celebrate marriages and the couples who keep their vows.

Download or read book What Did The Baby Boomers Ever Do For Us written by Francis Beckett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2010, this book explores the legacy of the baby boomers: the generation who, born in the aftermath of the Second World War, came of age in the radical sixties where for the first time since the War, there was freedom, money, and safe sex. In this book, Francis Beckett argues that what began as the most radical-sounding generation for half a century turned into a random collection of youthful style gurus, sharp-toothed entrepreneurs and management consultants who believed revolution meant new ways of selling things; and Thatcherites, who thought freedom meant free markets, not free people. At last, it found its most complete expression in New Labour. The author argues that the children of the 1960s betrayed the generations that came before and after, and that the true legacy of the swinging decade is in ashes.

Download or read book Who is God and why did they lie us written by Asparuh Chorbadzhiev and published by Europa Edizioni. This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is changing. The world we live in has always changed. Changes can be dynamic or smooth. Immersed in our daily lives, we rarely think about the reasons why the world is changing. If we still have time to think, it will not be difficult to realize that we are these reasons. If we are able to realize this, we are not far from the logic that we can control change. Not individually, but as a conscious society. The changes we have registered so far are summarized as the history of mankind. […] Everyone wants a better life. This is only possible if we make the world we live in better. And we are constantly trying to do just that. […] Although provided in different ways according to the respective society and the respective epoch, the teaching has always been the same in its essence. This teaching is so universal that it cannot be changed. Change can only exist in the way we realize it. In order to be properly aware, we only need to update the way we pass on the teachings to the generations to come. Mankind today, as a whole, has realized that unification is needed to continue our proper development. At the same time, there is a division by different criteria and to different degrees. One of these divisions is faith in God. Most of those who deny it believe that we were created by chance by nature. This is also an interesting version, but it does not help much for proper upbringing. Very often people interpret this option as follows. Man is the greatest creation of nature. So great that it is greater than its creator. And little by little, without realizing it, people begin to boast. Once we succumb to selfishness, the worst of all human vices, we take the wrong path that can inevitably lead all of humanity to self-destruction. The second group in this division are people who believe in God. If the faith of those who claim to have it is true, they follow the teachings on which the claim of God, creator of the world and men, is based. If these teachings are the same, it would lead to the unification of humanity. If the result is the opposite, then we have not fulfilled the basic testament of the doctrine. This means that we have changed it and passed it on in the wrong way to the next generations. There is a third group in the same division. These are the people who realize that God and nature is one and the same thing. These people are trying to modernize the teaching and make it understandable to everyone. This would help people realize the need for unification as a prerequisite for achieving change in the world for the better. In personal aspect, if everyone tries to become a better person then the world will simply become better. If one believes the world can be better, there is no difference from believe in God. It’s just a different manifest of faith. Without faith, we can easily ‘sell our souls’. The book “Who is God and why did they lie us” is an attempt to explain this in a simple way. Asparuh Chorbadzhiev was born on August, 25th 1970 in Varna, Bulgaria. In 1988 he graduated at the Maritime College in Varna. At those years, a seaman profession was one of the possibilities to allow him travel around the world. To continue this career, later he went to the Naval Academy. For the past 30 years he sailed on most type of ships, meeting people from all over the world. As he would put it, reading books is another way to travel, in time and space. His interest in reading led him to the books with alternative knowledge and also to the great spiritual teachers. This helped him reach answers to eternal questions. What has been achieved is best to be shared. And that is exactly what is done in this book.

Book excerpt: In this “brave and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of All Your Perfects, a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance can’t stop thinking about her first love. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place. As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened. An honest, evocative, and tender novel, It Ends with Us is “a glorious and touching read, a forever keeper. The kind of book that gets handed down” (USA TODAY).

Download or read book Why Did Jesus Send Us the Holy Spirit written by George E. Hicks and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-10-20 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I was pastoring a church in Canada, one of the members came to me, asking about the ministry of the Holy Spirit. He said that he had heard a lot of teaching about the Trinity, explanations about God the Father and God the Son (Jesus Christ), but very little about the Holy Spirit. When the subject of the Holy Spirit came up, the teaching was vague and very limited. As a result, he didn't understand what the Holy Spirit did. He knew that the Holy Spirit was part of the Trinity and was more or less God, but what did the Holy Spirit do? He didn't have the slightest idea. The purpose of this book is not to write a thesis on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. I want it to be a practical book explaining the ministry of the Holy Spirit in our lives in such a way that He is no longer seen as a mysterious or mystical "force" and becomes known as a person (God) acting in and guiding our lives in a way that we can understand. The Holy Spirit is God, the third person of the Trinity. We all (at least the born-again believer in Christ should) know that God the Father is seated on His throne in Heaven and controls everything that happens in the universe. We know that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was born in Bethlehem of Judea, grew up, walked on this earth, and died on the cross of Calvary in our place for our sins, and today is seated at the right hand of the Father, interceding for us. Today He is our advocate before the Father. And the Holy Spirit? Today I believe that the ignorance about the Holy Spirit is partially the fault of us, as pastors, who have not taught what we know to be our responsibility: teaching what the Bible says about the ministries of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. I hope to change this problem with this book!
