Book excerpt: We box Jesus in. We say, 'This is how he works.' In answer to all the ways we aim to control, define and understand him, Jesus reminds us that he has immeasurably more to offer. How often do we feel like we are at the end of our energy? Not only physically and emotionally, but also spiritually? Some of us have been running this race for so long that we feel dangerously dehydrated. Jesus is calling all of us into a radical empowered life that we couldn't ever achieve in our own strength. Jesus tells his church that there is immeasurably more on offer than just a religious life, a good life or a moral life. There is more to offer our families and friends, more to offer our neighbourhoods. Jesus offers us an immeasurably more powerful and beautiful life. To a dehydrated church, Jesus announces... there is always more.

Book excerpt: Open your Bible and prepare to learn how God is able to do immeasurably more than all we can ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Beloved teacher Ray Stedman takes you on a journey through Gods Word that will both inspire and motivate you. The theme of this book, the believers riches in Christ, becomes clearly evident as Immeasurably More leads you through portions of the Old and New Testamants in an easily-read, easily-grasped devotional experience. God says to his people, You are to be holy to me because I, the Lord, am holy. I have set you apart to be My own. (Lev 20:26). Christians must understand that we are the people of God today. What God said to Israel He also says to us, for in our relationship in Jesus Christ there is but one man, one body in Christ. Promises which appear in the Old Testament belong also to us who live this side of the cross.

It is hard to physically, emotionally, and spiritually be still in the midst of work schedules, piano lessons, date nights, school events, social recreations with friends, marriage, business, career, and the list goes on.

Download or read book Immeasurably Deeper written by Abby Guinness and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2015-02-22 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 40-part devotional from Spring Harvest encourages us to dig deeper, and gives practical advice about immersing ourselves in rhythms that refresh us and help us experience more of the power of the Spirit in our daily lives. Each section is focused on a different area of life or spiritual discipline and offers a Bible passage, something to read, and something to think about, to do and to pray. There are contributions from Gavin Calver, Mark Greene, Michele Guinness, Katharine Hill, Krish Kandiah, Virginia Luckett, Cathy Madavan, Medea Peabody, Rob Peabody, Cris Rogers, Dot Tyler, and Ruth Valerio. Scripture encourages us to be like deeply-rooted trees, reaching towards God's living waters for sustenance, strength and fruitfulness. But in a fast-moving world we have become used to living in the shallows, grabbing refreshment when we can, and sprinting on. More than ever we need to find a regular rhythm of drinking the living water that Jesus offers. Our prayer is that with this book, you will discover a new awareness of the Holy Spirit's presence, and renewed fruitfulness in his empowering.
Download or read book Immeasurably More written by Linda Aalderink and published by . This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are people in our world today who, at "face value," seem to have little or no real value. The truth is, though, that what the world sees as "disposable" God sees as having incalculable worth. God assures us of a definite purpose and a plan for each of His children, including those-and perhaps especially those-whose life package includes "special needs." Often in the Bible we find that God uses the "least of these" to do His work, demonstrate His love, and provide the rest of us an avenue for expressing our own love. "Immeasurably More" is the heartfelt story of one family's journey, a journey that showcases the amazing impact one person with Down syndrome can have. "Immeasurably More" shares anecdotes from the Aalderinks' life together as a family, interspersed with personal observations and accounts from siblings, friends, teachers, coaches, and others. This honest, humorous, and poignant real-life story will touch your heart, while illustrating how an unassuming young man transformed a family, a school, and even a community. WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING In our culture today, we look to professional athletes for inspiration. We want to see signs of God's activity and power in their achievements and testimonies. Instead, we should be looking at Zach and the Aalderink family Zach's story shows that despite the challenges, God's plans are not hindered by Down syndrome, and that His goodness and faithfulness are not changed by an extra chromosome. I was moved by this book. Jason Hanson: Kicker, Detroit Lions I first met Zach one Sunday when he came into our church auditorium and I was getting ready to teach. He looked me in the eye, smiled warmly, and offered me a program. On the other side of the doorway was Zach's gentle-spirited, smiling, proud dad. Empowering these two was Linda, a loving, joy-filled, prayerful mom and wife. Her joy and journey is revealed in this book as she points us to the image of God in her son. James Liske: CEO, Prison Fellowship Ministries Life is about story and this book is filled with stories that highlight the joys and heartaches of parenting. Each chapter opened our hearts to the "Larger-Story" God is telling through Zach's life. We were reminded that life involves choices; and we celebrated how Zach's family repeatedly chose hope and a positive attitude in the face of disappointment and discouragement. This book reminds readers how sacrificial love and living in community can become the pathway to the sacred things in life. Tim + Anne Evans: REAL LIFE ministries, Colorado Springs, CO I have had the pleasure of watching the life of this incredible family as Zach has grown up in our community. Incredible is the word I use, not because they have a child with Down syndrome, but because of the way their family has affected an entire community. Zach's involvement with his school system and Hope College has had an enormous impact on everyone around him. And Linda has influenced our students as an annual guest lecturer in my courses at Hope College by articulating the life of a parent with Down syndrome in a compelling way from a parent's perspective. Now, in the context of this wonderful story, we can all peek into the life of a faithful family learning to grow together while raising a young man who matters, first because of who he is as a person, and second in the context of having a disability. You will love this story Steven Smith, Ph.D.: Professor of Kinesiology, Hope College Linda Aalderink tells a real story, an honest story as a parent of Zach-who just happens to have Down syndrome. It is also a story of faith, hope and love. Zach's story is about faith that clings to God's promises that each of us, as parents, hold dear for our children. It is a powerful story of hope for parents in a future that holds so many question marks. And it is a love story because love transforms relationships. Rev. Matthew Floding, D.Min. Duke Div

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fired by the passion to take the message of the gospel beyond the walls of the church, Jerry Cook challenges Christians to reconsider their role in society. Jerry Cook emphasizes that the church on Monday operates in the experience of the non-believer where the greatest impact for God can occur. He encourages Christians to consider themselves strategically placed by Jesus Christ to go to the non-believer rather than having them come to God. Drawing from the book of Ephesians, he challenges traditional thinking of how ministry occurs and what the church should be while presenting an exciting new paradigm of living for Christ.

Download or read book There Is More written by Brian Houston and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founder and Global Senior Pastor of Hillsong Church and author of LIVE LOVE LEAD shows how, with God's power, you can believe and achieve a life that exceeds every earthly expectation. When you surrender control and follow God's guidance, you become empowered and equipped to do the impossible, reach higher, and go further than you could have ever imagined--giving Him all the glory. By building our lives around godly principles, surrounding ourselves with wisdom, and living for a cause greater than ourselves, we can effectively live out God's purposes and have an enduring impact. As Brian Houston has personally discovered, when we depend on Jesus as the source for our identity, our lives can be a lasting legacy that maximize the gifts He has given each of us as unique individuals. There is More is for anyone who wants to be challenged to live with expectancy. Ephesians 3 is a call to release the immeasurable potential within you and the exceeding, abundant, and above plans and purposes of a Holy God that are beyond your greatest imagination. "Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen" (Ephesians 3:20-21).

This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ephesians was written to remind us who we are. It's about refamiliarizing ourselves with our identities in Christ so that we don't have to live under the crushing weight of heartache and disappointment. In his letter to the church in Ephesus, Paul gives us beautiful insight into the Lord's redemptive power. In this six-session video Bible study (video streaming included), Lori Wilhite draws on her experience as the pastor's wife of a large congregation to share the truth of what Paul tells the Ephesians about identity, unity, and the impact these things have on our hearts, our focus, and our love for God. Too often, our shoulders slump under the weight of family struggles, financial stress, and feelings of insecurity. We are pushed down by insignificance, insecurity, and an overwhelming sense of powerlessness and discouragement. You are not meant to be under that burden any longer. You are a chosen child of God, saved by His grace, forgiven and free. In the Ephesians Study Guide, you'll learn how the book of Ephesians reveals what God has done, is doing, and will continue to do—so that you can walk confidently in him with head held high. —Beautiful Word Bible Study Series— What book of the Bible do you turn to for wisdom about the situation you find yourself in?
