Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout scripture the people of God are called to rejoice because He is King and Creator of all and because He loves us. One of my favorite verses is Philippians 4:4, which says, "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" This little book of poetry is all about rejoicing in the Lord through the many holidays of the church year. It begins with Advent and preparation for the coming of Christ, at Christmas and in the future. It ends with Thanksgiving and a reminder that God is the source of all we have to be thankful for. In between, you'll find the Lenten season, Holy Week, Pentecost, and more. Some holidays are somber and others are festive, but all are a reason to Rejoice that God is King and Creator of all. The 72 poems in this book range from free verse to form poetry, such as triolets, pantoums, sedokas, and acrostics. Each is written to help you focus on the One in whom we rejoice.

Download or read book Yet I Will Joy written by Valerie P. Graham and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Dreams are thoughts within my mind Of things that might now be. But hope is written in God’s Word Of what shall surely be.” Our worldly dreams will not satisfy the emptiness of a longing, hurting soul. Only an enduring hope found in God satisfies the soul with joy and purpose. This collection of poems takes one on a journey in which eyes of faith and hope view idols, foes, and struggles along the path. Then these eyes fully open to behold the sweet joy, love, and peace found in faith and hope rooted in God. The conviction of this faith and hope is heralded in “Yet I Will Joy”: “Though the day of trouble comes . . . / Yet I will joy in the Lord God of my salvation.” Faith and hope bring the “Sweet Joy” of a life lived in the call of the Lord God. “The Calling of the Princess” vividly pictures the high king seeking a bride for his prince. The messenger goes forth throughout the land calling for a bride, a princess, for his son. Who will answer the call?

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
