Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, 42.6 million people in the United States are sixty-five or older.

Milwee offers a touching and inspiring Christian commentary that speaks to the value of accepting and welcoming elderly Christians to the church. He shares his own experience in the pastoral ministry as he documents the contributions of the faithful elderly and encourages us to follow their example.

He helps them understand that respect must be earned instead of demanded. Grow Old along with Me reminds all that senior adults are a valuable asset to any church and deserve to be valued, cherished, and treated with dignity and respect. It encourages seniors to make the decision to grow old gracefully and seeks to bring comfort to those who are facing death in the near future.

Download or read book Come Walk With Me written by Edith Adrian Matthies and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This writing began as a light, retrospective narration walking through remembrances common to many who grew up in prairie farming communities in the last seventy years. The walk continued through life’s experiences which were, in turn, challenging or hilarious, poignant or bitter, and probably not highly unusual. It became apparent to the writer that a benevolent Presence had been the constant companion in the journey. In order to overcome inherent obstinacy, the Spirit of God nudged, pulled, coaxed and even pushed as was needed. The writer was able to invariably choose joy in the culmination of her life’s experiences because of the deep love she experienced from her Heavenly Father. As a result, this writing evolved from a collection of vignettes into a spiritual biography written with introspective vulnerability for the enjoyment and contemplation of her children, her grandchildren and all those who were part of her journey.

Download or read book The Nehemiah 52 Day Challenge written by Maureen Greer and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2024-03-24 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nehemiah 52 Day Challenge: Rebuilding Your Wall of Health connects the actions of the God-fearing man, Nehemiah, to the physical, mental, and spiritual health of believers using the Book of Nehemiah. As it works through this book four different times during the 52 days, it challenges the reader to implement the spiritual actions which the book describes along with day-to-day lifestyle habits which will help to “rebuild the Wall of Health” of everyone in many different aspects of their lives. The book not only addresses issues pertaining to the body, but it also encourages the reader to consider other areas of their lives where their “walls” are weak as they allow toxins to intrude into their brains, bodies, and beliefs. It also brings to light the problem of their “wall” becoming too “impenetrable” in unhealthy ways such as in refusing relationships, failing to admit responsibility and weaknesses, refusal to receive instruction, or in disconnecting from others in unhealthy ways. In addition, the topics of trauma, oppression, greed, relationships, sleep, depression, anxiety, mood, anger, water, behavior, learning, nourishment, environmental inputs, digestion, brain health, the gut brain connection, exercise, and work ethic, plus much more are addressed. The book consists of 52 action steps based on connections made from the Book of Nehemiah to the health and behavior of all individuals.

Download or read book For a Time We Cannot See written by Crawford Loritts and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2005-07-01 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is nearly impossible to reach mid-life without some reflection upon one's desire to leave a legacy and build for an unseen future. Loritts believes that these yearnings experienced by "second halfers" are actually rooted in a longing for eternity in heaven. He writes, "Those of us who are followers of Christ need to be reminded that there is a place that is really ours,a home for which we are created. God has given us the gift of eternal life and a place in heaven, and He has placed the longing for heaven in our hearts. This is our home, our destiny, and our calling." Loritts' wisdom is at once down-to-earth and biblical. The reader will see a transparent author who is journeying through these issues himself and will be admonished to examine his or her present priorities in view of eternity.

Download or read book Signs of Life written by Dr. David Jeremiah and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2011-09-12 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tour de force of life on a journey with Jesus. By all means, take this journey if you can.—Chuck Colson, Founder, Prison Fellowship With our society’s sometimes unfavorable view of Christians, it is all the more important that believers display what Dr. David Jeremiah calls signs of life — signs that Jesus has transformed us and that we are committed to Him and His kingdom. They are signs that ought to be detected from across the street, over the fence, down the hall, throughout the office, or in the pews, for it’s not enough to just talk about Jesus. It’s also not enough to serve Him in secret with our acts of private devotion. We have to display the lifestyle of the Nazarene in the midst of a corrupt and darkened culture. In a world starved for love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, faithfulness, honesty, relevance, and compassion, Christians should specialize in exactly those things through public expressions of private faith. It’s by our smile, our compassion in the face of misfortune, our friendliness, our simple lifestyle, our willingness to commit random acts of kindness, our social ministries, our tears, and our words that unbelievers recognize Who we represent. Signs of Life will lead you on a journey to a fuller understanding of the marks that identify you as a Christian. Signs that will advertise your faith. Personal imprints that can impact souls for eternity and help you become a person of influence who radiates relevancy, authenticity, generosity, and compassion every day — just like Jesus did.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This did not start out to be a memoir; rather a compilation of professional and opinion-writing to one day be read by our children and grandchildren. Early in the process it became clear that some chronology was needed to give background and context. Thus a memoir, plus. Still intended for the extended family, it is full of stories and perspectives from two different cultures and geographies, different decades and histories. This will also be of interest to a general audience who may not read the whole book but will enjoy reading “in” the book. Polinder writes with voice—to know him will be to hear him telling his stories. Honest, insightful, warm and funny—you will learn much about leadership, relationship and partnership, most often with a smile.
