Download or read book Sweeter Than Chocolate written by Christy Bower and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The psalmist says the Word of God is "sweeter than honey" (Psalm 19:10; 119:103) but a more fitting metaphor for us today is to say God's Word is sweeter than chocolate. Yet is that really how we feel? We want to delight in God's Word, but how do we get past our perception of it as difficult, boring, and irrelevant? Author Christy Bower shows us how to develop a love for God's Word like our love for chocolate. She provides readers with a quick overview of the entire Bible; offers suggestions for Bible study methods and meditation practices; and suggests tools helpful in carving up the chocolate sculpture, the Bible. One of the unique aspects of the book is Christy's discussion of left-brained and right-brained approaches to the Bible. People who are dominantly left-brained prefer structured, detailed study. People who are right-brained often find study frustrating and boring because they prefer creative, interactive approaches. These right-brained approaches are integrated in creative forms of meditation. Both study and meditation are important, but understanding your preference will lessen the frustration and allow you the freedom to engage the Bible according to how God made you. Immerse yourself in the Bible with a hint of chocolate and you'll never see the Bible the same.

Download or read book Sweeter Than Chocolate Galatians written by Pam Gillaspie and published by . This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sweeter than Chocolate!(r) Galatians: Solid Truth for Slippery Times It's easy to be 'bewitched' by 'another gospel' if you don't know the True Gospel. The Galatians, like many people today, went along with what felt right in the moment rather than standing firm on truth, but the Apostle Paul was unwilling to leave them in their muddled thinking. In the midst of zealous deceivers, Paul reminds his reader then and now that at the heart of the True Gospel is the cross of Jesus Christ, that God has always saved His people by faith, and that in Christ God turns slaves into sons! Growing weary in slippery times? Solid truth is the antidote. In a world of mysticism, syncretism, and other false teaching, it's critical to know truth for yourself so you can discern the influence of 'other gospels' and live in the power and freedom of the True Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Book excerpt: What if we spend a few quiet moments with God each morning? What if we are intentional about making that happen? What if we commit to doing that for an entire year, and by year's end we find we've read the entire Bible? My number one tip for successful Bible study is to be intentional about a plan. If you don't have a plan, it's probably not going to happen. That's the reason I wrote Sweeter Than Honey--to give busy women like us a manageable and attainable plan to read through the Bible in a year. Sweeter Than Honey is a 365-day devotional journey centered around Psalm 119:103, "How sweet are Your Words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" It's a book written to help you find peace in the chaos and strength for your weakest moments as it encourages you in your daily walk with God. These 365 devotions will lead you gently through God's Word in chronological order of book authorship, and when you read the accompanying passage for each day you will have read through the entire Bible! "You'll find encouragement on every page of this book--encouragement to seek God above all else. The strong, spiritual emphasis will challenge you to turn to God for daily direction and experience His presence in a whole new and intentional way. Sweeter Than Honey will become more to you than just another daily devotional, it will become a keepsake as you record prayers and participate in thought-provoking, practical exercises that touch every aspect of your life and draw you closer to our Creator." --from the Prologue

Download or read book Gospel Wakefulness Foreword by Ray Ortlund written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-10-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We may know the gospel. We may believe it—even proclaim it. But we also may assume the gospel and become lethargic. In this book Jared Wilson seeks to answer the central question, how do we experience and present the gospel in a fresh, nonroutine way in order to prevent ourselves and others from becoming numb? His answer may be surprising: "by routinely presenting the unchanging gospel in a way that does justice to its earth-shaking announcement." We don't excite and awaken people to the glorious truths of the gospel by spicing up our worship services or through cutting-edge, dramatic rhetoric, but by passionately and faithfully proclaiming the same truths we have already been given in Scripture. Wilson's book will stir churches to live out the power of the gospel with a fervent, genuine zeal. After an explanation of the term "gospel wakefulness," Wilson unpacks implications for worship, hyper-spirituality, godly habits, and sanctification, as well as other aspects of church life. Pastors, church leaders, and all in ministry, especially those who are tired or discouraged, will be uplifted, emboldened, and empowered by this book.
Download or read book The Imperfect Disciple written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too many discipleship books are written for clean, perfect people who know all the right Sunday school answers. The Imperfect Disciple is for the rest of us--people who screw up, people who are weary, people who are wondering if it's safe to say what they're really thinking. For the believer who is tired of quasi-spiritual lifehacks being passed off as true, down-and-dirty discipleship, here is a discipleship book that isn't afraid to be honest about the mess we call real life. With incisive wit, warm humor, and moving stories, Jared Wilson shows readers how the gospel works in them and in their lives when - they can't get their act together - they think God is giving them the silent treatment - they think church would be better without all the people - they're not happy with the person in the mirror - and much more Wilson frees readers from the self-doubt and even the misplaced self-confidence they may feel as they walk with Jesus down the often difficult road of life. The result is a faith that weathers storms, lifts burdens, and goes forth to make more imperfect disciples.

Download or read book The Taste of Sweet written by Joanne Chen and published by Clarkson Potter. This book was released on 2008-03-18 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dismissed as déclassé by gourmands, blamed for the scourge of obesity, and yet loved by all, the taste of sweet has long been at the center of both controversy and celebration. For anyone who has ever felt conflicted about a cupcake, this is a book to sink your teeth into. In The Taste of Sweet, unabashed dessert lover Joanne Chen takes us on an unexpected adventure into the nature of a taste you thought you knew and reveals a world you never imagined. Sweet is complicated, our individual relationships with it shaped as much by childhood memories and clever marketing as the actual sensation of the confection on the tongue. How did organic honey become a luxury while high-fructose corn syrup has been demonized? Why do Americans think of sweets as a guilty pleasure when other cultures just enjoy them? What new sweetener, destined to change the very definition of the word sweet, is being perfected right now in labs around the world? Chen finds the answers by visiting sensory scientists who study taste buds, horticulturalists who are out to breed the perfect strawberry, and educators who are researching the link between class and obesity. Along the way she sheds new light on a familiar taste by exploring the historical sweetscape through the banquet tables of emperors, the pie safes of American pioneers, the corporate giants that exist to fulfill our every sweet wish, and the desserts that have delighted her throughout the years. This fabulously entertaining story of sweet will change the way you think about your next cookie.
