Download or read book Letters to Encourage and Correct written by Don Stormer and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul had a deep concern for the Christians in the churches, which he planted. This is something that is very obvious in the second letter to the church in Corinth and the letter to the Galatian churches. Pauls integrity was being attacked by intruders in Corinth, and he needed to defend himself in order that Christians there would not be destabilized in their faith. One of the things that stands out very clearly is Pauls pastoral heart and care for these Corinthian believers. The letter to the churches in Galatia was also written, following the unsettling effects of intruders into the churches. Wrong doctrine was being taught, and the Christians were in danger of being completely led away from the fundamental message of the gospel that salvation is by grace through faith. As we look back from our position in the twenty-first century, we can be thankful for Pauls uncompromising approach to the gospel.
Download or read book Letters of Encouragement From a Mother to Her Son written by Margie Lee Perkins Davis and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letters of Encouragement from a Mother to Her Son is pretty much made up of nine letters that were written by a mother to her only child, her son who has to spend time locked away from family. Out of the nine letters, the last one has not yet been read by my son. By this time, if you are reading this, my son has also. After each letter, there are scriptures and teaching that one could ponder on and apply to their life so that they may be encouraged and lifted up and know that they are not alone. Most of us young and old never pick up a Bible, so God has appointed those that are led by the Holy Spirit to be a light to the world. I pray that this book will reach and bless many who read it, and I pray that those who apply the Word of Jesus to their life will be encouraged and changed in a way that draws them closer to Jesus Christ. Maybe they would even give their life to Jesus, if they haven't already, then assemble themselves around those who love the Lord so that they may continue to grow in the Lord our God and pass it on to the next, spreading the love of God. Amen! Be encouraged.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is appropriate? Do I act like I never saw the letters and put them back in with her things? Do I show them to my dad and ask him what is appropriate to do with them? out of respect for mom and out of respect for those of us who survive her because they could have just as easily fallen into anyone else s possession, I will share with you these letters. -S. Cunningham, Chapter 23: Dear Diary Due to various circumstances, she may become overwhelmed by many responsibilities which she feels before God she must be able to meet. She doesn t want to complain, because she wants to be totally surrendered to God s will and respectful of her husband s leadership. If her husband does not sense the pressure his wife is under, and if she feels this is all God s will, then she has NO OUT. This can lead in extreme circumstances to mental disorders (temporary or permanent) or suicide. -Carol Cunningham, Chapter 9: Dear Tim Maybe I m insane and irrational in an attempt to explain my mother s death, but to me it makes more sense now. Now that I read mom s writing what she really felt. I read these letters and for the first time see her as more than a mother, but as a person with weaknesses and struggles like anyone else. -S.
