Download or read book I ll Love You Anyway written by Lori Davis and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If every Christian knew who they were as a child of God, if they knew their identity in Christ and how valuable they are just because they are His, and if all this went beyond head knowledge and into heart knowledge, just imagine the power in that understanding. Broken relationships could be mended, and families could work out their differences. Individuals held captive by their insecurities would experience freedom in their lives. I'll Love You Anyway, by author Lori Davis, seeks to help Christians experience the freedom of forgiving and letting go of the past. You can break down the walls of protection and be free to give and receive love the way God intended. You can learn to extend unconditional grace and love to others. Davis explains how to recognize that the people who hurt us may have also been hurt in life and that they too may be living with walls of protection around their hearts. If we can integrate the truth of who God says we are within our daily lives, we can come to experience a deeper relationship with the Lord. "Lori writes this book from the inside looking out. She lived this book and has a vantage point few are ever willing to talk about. Walk in her steps as you read and learn how to overcome anger, pain, and disappointment." -Pastor John Hunn, Immanuel Baptist Church

Book excerpt: What does it mean to lead a life of hope, faith, and virtue? When faced with a world with less and less of a shared concept of truth, where do we turn? And when life gives us lemons, what can we do? Through this collection of stylistically diverse poems, author David A. McAdam suggests we can make lemonade out of even the barest of circumstances, and welcome others to engage in rich conversation over a cool, refreshing drink. Broken into eight thematically organized sections, these poems move us through the steps it takes to “do lemonade”—from inviting to savouring to refilling—reminding us of the universal values we can all lean on, whether we are facing highs or lows. Through these varied poems, readers are invited to reflect on changes in themselves and their relationships, to honour and give thanks for what they have, and to face challenges with grace and humility. Drawing on his Christian and Caribbean roots, his poems ultimately serve to affirm the value of faith, lighting a candle against the darkness of the post-truth world.
