Download or read book Monthly Entries for the Spiritual but not Religious through the Year written by Mark G. Boyer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about spirituality for the spiritual but not religious. Those who identify themselves as spiritual but not religious make up one quarter of the population in the United States. This book provides 189 monthly entries based on the national and international celebrations that occur every month. Each entry begins with the name of the occasion and the date when it is marked during the month. A text from the Bible, a US public law, a presidential proclamation, a United Nations declaration, etc. that illustrates the day is presented. The text is followed by a reflection which gleans the spirituality from the text and provides historical background on the day being celebrated. Journal/meditation questions follow the reflection, and a prayer concludes the entry. This book is for the spiritual but not religious, a practice of spirituality that does not regard organized religion as a valuable means to further interior spiritual growth. A section of the introduction to the book explores who the spiritual but not religious are and presents the common themes that surface from research about them.

Download or read book Lost Art of Sacrifice written by Vicki Burbach and published by Sophia Institute Press. This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lost Art of Sacrifice leaves behind the soft sentimentalism that many today wrongly associate with Christianity, calling readers to remember – and to embrace – Christ's unambiguous challenge in Matthew 16: “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” In these powerful pages, author Vicki Burbach contrasts – as Jesus did – our selfish worldly culture with the way Christians are called to live, illuminating the essential role that sacrifice must play in every worthy human life. Not content with explaining the importance of sacrifice and singing its praises, Burbach ends each chapter with practical, down-to-earth suggestions to help readers cultivate the art of sacrifice in their lives, so that each may find a way to follow Christ as He commands us. Best of all, she shows t

Download or read book Not Just on Sundays written by Bonnie Lyn Smith and published by . This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you ever wonder if the Bible and church doors slam shut at midnight on Sunday, only to open again the following Sunday? Whether you attend church or are just curious about how real this whole "faith in Christ" thing is, perhaps you have met people who live as if God is only accessible on Sundays. Is it possible to take our faith with us every day of the week? Any number of issues-parenting woes, relationships that need healing, decisions that need wisdom-demand our attention and time. What do our Monday through Saturday conversations with God even sound like? In "Not Just on Sundays," Bonnie Lyn Smith shares how faith in Christ informs the everyday and how the Bible offers wisdom for so many situations. The book serves as a starting place to practice how to reach into God's riches, not only to know Him deeply, but also to be part of His purpose and plan. Through personal stories and reflections, Bonnie shows us that He gives so many promises that help us live each day in His presence. She offers examples of how God reveals Himself to us, if we are open to looking for Him, seeking His guidance, and accepting His abiding love. Even when and where we least expect Him!
Download or read book By Bread Alone written by Kendall Vanderslice and published by Tyndale House Publishers. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bread is central to God's story, and to your story too. Our spiritual lives are deeply connected to bread--the bread we break with family and friends and the Bread that is Christ's Body, given and broken for us. It's easy to choose the cheapest, most convenient option, but the life of Jesus and the story of Scripture, as well as the substance of bread itself, shows us that there is more. In By Bread Alone, Kendall Vanderslice, a professional baker and practical theologian who spends her days elbow-deep in dough, reveals that there is no food more spiritually significant than bread--whether eating, baking, sharing, or breaking. Kendall has struggled with hunger ever since she can remember--hunger for bread, yes, but also for community and for the ability to "taste and see" the goodness of God. She knows the tension of bread as blessing and bread as burden but has learned that bread also offers a unique opportunity to heal our relationship to the body of Christ and to our own bodies. In By Bread Alone, she weaves her own faith-filled journey together with original recipes and stories about the role of bread in church history, revealing a God who draws near to us and creatively provides for our daily needs. When words fail, when we cry out in longing and loneliness, when God feels impossibly far away, By Bread Alone displays the tangible expression of God's presence and provision for us in the form of bread. It's the story of hunger and family, of friendship and unmet longing. It's the story of a God who meets us in both sacred and mundane ways. In the mixing and kneading, in the waiting and partaking, may God also meet you.

Download or read book The First Snow written by Bob Ellison and published by WestBowPress. This book was released on 2014-02-28 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what a man thinks and what he feels—truly feels—when he is in the process of losing his wife to cancer and is her caregiver? Have you wondered how he feels after he loses his wife to cancer? Nothing prepares him for the overwhelming feelings of loss, of being alone, of anger at God until that very moment is upon him. Yes, there are clinical descriptions of what to expect at the loss of a spouse, such as: You may have feelings of anger, at God or at your spouse for leaving you, feelings of loneliness, abandonment, guilt or despair. These feelings are normal. Is that all? Yet there were no articles or descriptions of the depth of those emotions, the utter desolation of being alone after watching a spouse breathe her last breath, and how painful the loss really can be when it all sinks in, because men are supposed to suck it up, to be strong and move on. This journal describes everything from the mundane day-to-day incidents, concerns, hopes, victories, doubts, and frustrations of being the primary caregiver for a dying wife, to the interactions between the author and his sons—his wife’s two sons that he adopted and his oldest son from a previous marriage. It also describes the utter desolation he felt and ultimately lived through after his wife of twenty-eight years took her last breath on the morning following winter’s first snow of 2010 with only him at her side.

What if menopause didn’t have to be a struggle? Your body is always changing—necessarily and beautifully—throughout life.

But as women’s hormonal health expert and bestselling author Dr. Mariza Snyder explains, you can and deserve to experience a good night’s sleep, clear thinking, stable moods, an energized metabolism, and pain-free sex. The solution is not to medicate the changes, but instead get to the root cause of what’s really going on in the body. In The Essential Oils Menopause Solution, Dr. Mariza offers a cutting-edge, comprehensive plan to do just that, including: • a clear explanation of what’s happening in your body before, during, and after “the change,” and how certain lifestyle triggers exacerbate hormonal imbalance. • the latest science behind the benefits of essential oils as safe, effective solutions for perimenopause and menopause symptoms. • more than 75 recipes and protocols designed to provide solutions for deep, restful sleep, anxiousness, mood swings, fatigue, hot flashes, low libido, brain fog, vaginal dryness, digestive distress, and much more. • a proven 21-day hormone-balancing program complete with meal plans, exercise recommendations, supplementation, and herbal therapies designed to reverse the myriad of symptoms affecting millions of women today. • easy self-care rituals to support every system of your body—from digestion and vaginal health to mitochondrial and liver function—throughout the perimenopausal and menopausal transition.
