Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you turn your struggles into strengths? Beloved Bible teacher Sheila Walsh teaches readers how the daily spiritual practices of confession, meditation on God’s Word, and prayer result in fresh freedom in Christ. In her long-awaited book, Sheila Walsh equips women with a practical method for connecting with God’s strength in the midst of struggle. From daily frustrations that can feel like overwhelming obstacles to hard challenges that turn into rock-bottom crises, women will find the means to equip themselves for standing strong with God. Using the spiritual applications of confession, prayer, and meditation on Scripture to form a daily connection to Jesus, women will learn how to experience new joy as a child of God who is fully known, fully loved, and fully accepted. In In the Middle of the Mess, Walsh reveals the hardened defenses that kept her from allowing God into her deepest hurts and shares how entering into a safe place with God and practicing this daily connection with him have saved her from the devil’s prowling attacks. Though we will never be completely “fixed” on earth, we are continually held by Jesus, whatever our circumstances. Sheila Walsh acts as our guardian in In the Middle of the Mess as she shows us we’re not alone in our struggles, guides us through a courageous journey of self-discovery, and reminds us where to find hope, comfort, and strength in tough times.
Download or read book Believing Is Seeing written by Errol Morris and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-05-27 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academy Award–winning director Errol Morris turns his eye to the nature of truth in photography In his inimitable style, Errol Morris untangles the mysteries behind an eclectic range of documentary photographs. With his keen sense of irony, skepticism, and humor, Morris shows how photographs can obscure as much as they reveal, and how what we see is often determined by our beliefs. Each essay in this book is part detective story, part philosophical meditation, presenting readers with a conundrum, and investigates the relationship between photographs and the real world they supposedly record. Believing Is Seeing is a highly original exploration of photography and perception, from one of America’s most provocative observers.

Download or read book Speak the Truth written by Carmen LaBerge and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animosity, confrontation, confusion—from cable news right down to our kids' classrooms, Christians are waking up to a world very different from the one we once knew. We are quick to blame everyone else from Hollywood to Washington, but it is not the culture's fault God is sidelined. If God is missing from the conversation, then it is because His people have failed to represent Him there. Christians have been far too silent for far too long, retreating out of fear of offending someone or the unpleasantness of stepping outside our comfort zone. When Christians have spoken up, too often it has not been in ways that honor Jesus. We have inserted our own opinion, obscuring the beauty and truth of the Gospel in favor of our political, ideological, or personal agenda. It's time for us to embrace our calling as Christ's ambassadors. To do that, we must be equipped to engage the world in ways that bring the mind of Christ to bear on the matters of the day. Carmen LaBerge's Speak the Truth seeks to give believers the confidence to speak the truth and the tools to re-engage in the culture and address the problems we are facing today by boldly—and lovingly—bringing God back into every conversation

Download or read book Not What You Think written by Michael McAfee and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not What You Think blows the dust off dated misperceptions of the Bible and engages the problems of this book head-on--the parts that make modern readers squeamish, skeptical, and uncertain. If you're skeptical about the Bible, you're not alone. The Bible is seen by many contemporary readers as intolerant, outdated, out of step with societal norms at best, and a tool of oppression at worst. In this earnest and illuminating read, millennial thought leaders and aspiring theologians Michael and Lauren McAfee are here to say: fair enough. But they're also here to raise a few questions of their own: What if we cleared the deck on our preconceptions of the Bible and encountered it anew? What if we came with the understanding that our questions are welcome? And what if the Bible presents less of a system to figure out, and more of a story to step into--a story with more surprising plot twists than we might think? Michael and Lauren spent their childhoods in church and Sunday school, they spent part of their twenties finding their way in the world in New York City, and today they're shaping their careers while pursuing doctoral studies in theology and ethics. Along the way, they've had to wrangle very real questions--both their own, and of their friends--about why, where, and how the most controversial book in history fits in our world today. Join Michael and Lauren as they explore the nature of the Bible--an ancient mosaic of story, literature, history, and poetry--and what it means for this generation and its relationship with God. Ultimately, Not What You Think is an invitation to come and see, and be surprised.

Download or read book Why the Truth is Hidden written by Leonard L Brunk and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-14 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One must understand what truth is, and accept the truth, before one can recognize the lies, and the liar. A misinformed and misguided church is vulnerable to those who seek to keep her members blinded from truth, discouraged from seeking answers, and distracted from asking the right questions. The prayer is readers will receive wisdom, and consequently neither self-righteous pride nor selfish desires will blind their eyes from seeing truth (Eph. 1:17, James 4). The faithful in Christ must share wisdom with humility and love if believing Christ is the Truth and the primary source of truth. If the truth is not shared in balance with the love of Christ perhaps the instructor is misled. However, the instructor may just be misjudged for growing impatient with a faithless generation. However, even in this Christ can relate when stating, "Oh faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you" (Matt. 17: 17 KJV)? Where Christ frequently seemed frustrated with the proudful, like the self-righteous Pharisees or Sadducees, His loving attitude towards the children is clear. Therefore, the prayer is also for readers to better share the truth with their children, and to remember the child like faith they had before exiting university or seminary. One must have reverence for God when remembering the one who hinders others from seeing the truth is an enemy of truth.

Offering up Richardson’s most powerful teaching tool yet – her own life – Waking Up in Winter takes readers on a brave, spiritual adventure that shows us all how to live a more authentic and meaningful life.
