This biography is a captivating journey through one womans consecutive stages of innocence in varied spheres: material wealth, foreign travels, romantic relationships and spiritual discernment. In an American society often fascinated by countries that can be seen as exotic and enchanting from a distance, this book will impact readers with what is not seen. Readers will experience Taiwan as the Taiwanese do, learning how different we are, but also learning how much we have in common as the children of Elohim (God). Readers will learn Kittys lessons, feel her pain, celebrate her triumphs and most importantly, meet her Maker. This book is based on the authentic, true life of Kitty, a fictitious name for the author, and insightful accounts of the little known Las Vegas insider sex industry. If even one woman or man from anywhere in the world would read this book, and think twice before reducing themselves to this lifestyle; it will be a blessing, and this book would have served its purpose: to inform, enlighten and hopefully bless those individuals who are considering making big money in this sex industry.

Download or read book Disappearing Church written by Mark Sayers and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2016-01-19 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When church and culture look the same... For the many Christians eager to prove we can be both holy and cool, cultural pressures are too much. We either compartmentalize our faith or drift from it altogether—into a world that’s so alluring. Have you wondered lately: Why does the Western church look so much like the world? Why are so many of my friends leaving the faith? How can we get back to our roots? Disappearing Church will help you sort through concerns like these, guiding you in a thoughtful, faithful, and hopeful response. Weaving together art, history, and theology, pastor and cultural observer Mark Sayers reminds us that real growth happens when the church embraces its countercultural witness, not when it blends in. It’s like Jesus said long ago, “If the salt loses its saltiness, it is no longer good for anything…”
Download or read book A Door Set Open written by Peter L. Steinke and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2010-08-23 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We resist change less when we associate it with mission and fortify it with hope. So argues longtime congregational consultant Peter Steinke in his fourth book, A Door Set Open, as he explores the relationship between the challenges of change and our own responses to new ideas and experiences. Steinke builds on a seldom-explored principle posited by the late Rabbi Edwin Friedman: the 'hostility of the environment' is proportionate to the 'response of the organism.' The key, Steinke says, is not the number or strength of the stressors in the system--anxiety, poor conditions, deteriorating values--but the response of the individual or organization to 'what is there.' Drawing on Bowen system theory and a theology of hope, as well as his experience working with more than two hundred congregations, Steinke makes the case that the church has entered an era of great opportunity. Theologian and sociologist Ernst Troeltsch said the church had closed down the office of eschatology. Steinke reopens it and draws our attention to God's future, to a vision of hope for the people of God. The door is set open for exploration and new creation.
