Download or read book Love Like Jesus How Jesus Loved People and how you can love like Jesus written by Kurt Bennett and published by Enoch Media. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on Kurt Bennett's popular-ish blog God Running, Love Like Jesus begins with the story of how after a life of regular church attendance and Bible study, Bennett was challenged by a pastor to study Jesus. That led to an obsessive seven-year deep dive. After pouring over Jesus' every interaction with another human being, he realized he was doing a much better job of studying Jesus' words than he was following Jesus' words and example. The honest and fearless revelations of Bennett's own moral failures affirm he wrote this book for himself as much as for others. Love Like Jesus examines a variety of stories, examples, and research, including: -Specific examples of how Jesus communicated God's love to others. -How Jesus demonstrated all five of Gary Chapman's love languages (and how you can too). -The story of how Billy Graham extended Christ's extraordinary love and grace toward a man who misrepresented Jesus to millions. -How to respond to critics the way Jesus did. -How to love unlovable people the way Jesus did. -How to survive a life of loving like Jesus (or how not to become a Christian doormat). -How Jesus didn't love everyone the same (and why you shouldn't either). -How Jesus guarded his heart by taking care of himself--he even napped--and why you should do the same.-How Jesus loved his betrayer Judas, even to the very end. With genuine unfiltered honesty, Love Like Jesus, shows you how to live a life according to God's definition of success: A life of loving God well, and loving the people around you well too. A life of loving like Jesus.

Download or read book How Jesus Runs the Church written by Guy Prentiss Waters and published by P & R Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many fine books available on the offices of church leadership. Few, if any, address for a contemporary audience the biblical foundations of the government of the church. But this should be a priority for us, because God emphasizes the government of his church throughout Scripture. Why should we be church members? How do church officers reflect Jesus' reign over us? Where do the church's responsibilities begin and end? Where do ours? These, and other important questions, are answered in Guy Prentiss Water's vital examination of How Jesus Runs the Church. At a time when church authority is treated with contempt, it's important that we honor God in our churches more than ever.

Download or read book Three Mile an Hour God written by Kosuke Koyama and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Love has its speed. It is a spiritual speed. It is a different kind of speed from the technological speed to which we are accustomed. It goes on in the depth of our life, whether we notice or not, at three miles an hour. It is the speed we walk and therefore the speed the love of God walks.' Once we grasp that in Christ God chooses to walk amongst us, it changes our whole understanding of the speed of love, and the speed of theology. In Three Mile an Hour God, renowned Japanese theologian Kosuke Koyama reflects beautifully on a theme lost to western theology and western culture in general – the need for slowness. With a new foreword from John Swinton

Download or read book Finish Your Course Are You Running The Race To Finish or Are You Just Running written by Joy Phagoo Meloney and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What I am writing about I wrote this book to share on the life of my father, Pastor Zam, initially. But as I started writing, I realized that the Holy Spirit was gently guiding me to share some of the ways he lived a victorious Christian life, according to the word of God. Growing up in church all my life, I have witnessed many believers getting converted, but are never transformed and changed to reflect the victorious life of their savior, Jesus Christ. I believe there are a lot of reasons for this, the wrong teaching and dispensation of the Word of God, the believers' lack of knowledge in the word of God and who it says that He is, and what it says they already possess. I have seen many believers being dispossessed by the enemy by deception and manipulation. The enemy manipulated the word of God in the Garden of Eden to deceive Eve. And man has been used by him to manipulate the word of God since then. When believers are unsure of their identity in Christ and choose to entertain the voice of the enemy they become easily deceived and are dispossessed of their dominion authority and spiritual connection from that point onward. When we do not know that we can experience the manifest presence of God every day and benefit from the comfort and conversation of the Holy Spirit daily, then the enemy has already robbed and dispossessed us of our covenant blessing in Christ. In Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, "If thou canst believe, all things are possible to Him that believeth." We need to go back to that faith and belief in the word like Jesus spoke about here. I wrote this book to unbelievers to give them an insight on what they can have access to in Christ. The peace, the contentment, fulfillment, power, deliverance, healing, and wisdom is available to them if they accept Christ as savior and Lord of their life. I wrote this book to challenge the elect, to know the message, be the witness of that message, walk in the light, and to continuously stay in that place where truth and the Spirit of Truth will prevail in your life. Why is this book unique and why does it fill a market need? Many people in this world, even church-going Bible-toting Christians live in a state of defeat and lack in their life. Lack in finances, lack in wisdom, lack of time, lack of faith, lack of proper guidance, etc. Yet God promised us the abundant life if we only believe. John 10:10 tell us that, "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." If you have loss or lack, then it is safe to say a thief has entered and stolen from you, wouldn't you agree? This is the reason I wrote this book, so the eyes of your understanding be opened to the lies and cunning devises of the enemy. This book will help you to identify the areas that the enemy has stolen from you today. Areas like your health, finances, peace, etc. It will show you how to take them back by faith in God. Hosea 4:6 says that "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou has rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children."

Download or read book Trains Jesus and Murder written by Richard Beck and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Saints and sinners, all jumbled up together." That's the genius of Johnny Cash, and that's what the gospel is ultimately all about. Johnny Cash sang about and for people on the margins. He famously played concerts in prisons, where he sang both murder ballads and gospel tunes in the same set. It's this juxtaposition between light and dark, writes Richard Beck, that makes Cash one of the most authentic theologians in memory. In Trains, Jesus, and Murder, Beck explores the theology of Johnny Cash by investigating a dozen of Cash's songs. In reflecting on Cash's lyrics, and the passion with which he sang them, we gain a deeper understanding of the enduring faith of the Man in Black.

The chapters on Holy Week make it especially helpful during the Lent season and at Easter.
