Download or read book Unashamed written by Heather Davis Nelson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shame is everywhere. Whether it's related to relationships, body image, work difficulties, or a secret sin, we all experience shame at some point in our lives. While shame can manifest itself in different ways—fear, regret, and anger—it ultimately points us to our most fundamental need as human beings: redemption. Shame never disappears in solitude, and Heather Davis Nelson invites us to not only be healed of our own shame but also be a part of healing for others. She shines the life-giving light of the gospel on the things that leave us feeling worthless and rejected, giving us courage us to walk out of shame's shadows and offering hope for our bondage to brokenness. Through the gospel, we discover the only real and lasting antidote to shame: exchanging our shame for the righteousness of Christ alongside others on this same journey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pathway to Spiritual Power and Maturity "Verily, Verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die. It abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit" (John 12:24) There is more to being a Christian soldier than attending Weekly Church Programmes. Brokenness is a pre-requisite for being a true Christian Soldier. This book teaches you result-oriented ways of escaping from spiritual stagnancy and its attendant frustrations. Brokenness is a good Spiritual thermometer for every child of God because at the end of the day, the requirement is that "He must increase, But I must decrease" (John 3:30) Why? So "that you may be filled with all the fullness of God" (Eph 3:19). You are encouraged by the Spirit of God, to read and study this book so that you can be at the spiritual height God expects you to be and not remain a Lilliputan all through your life. This is a challenge worth taking.
Download or read book The Power of Brokenness written by Theodore Andoseh and published by ZTF Books Online. This book was released on with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an expanding work—both local and international—there is pressing demand for new leaders. Emerging leaders often observe the deficiencies in the ministries of those who have long occupied center stage. Filled with innovative ideas and creativity, they aspire to bring something out of the ordinary—the very essence of God's creativity. Yet, the God of creativity demands that His creatures do not tamper with His design. The work of God must be carried out in God's way. The curse of carnal service lies in its ineffectiveness. Natural attributes, worldly achievements, and scholarly prowess can only be instrumental in God's service if the Holy Spirit chooses to employ them. The Power of Brokenness takes you on an extraordinary journey into the heart of effective Christian leadership, uncovering the hidden strength found in embracing brokenness. The author, Theodore Andoseh, artfully weaves insights from biblical narratives, particularly the transformative story of Moses—once a prospective Pharaoh, with vast knowledge, martial expertise, and numerous conquests under his belt—to demonstrate the work of God within the inner man, preparing the servant of God for usefulness and effectiveness in their divine calling. Brokenness, though painful, is not a negative force. The mighty prince proved ineffective, but it was the broken shepherd in God's hands who served the Lord with remarkable effectiveness. The elite Moses proved useless and could only save one person, who did not even leave Egypt. However, the broken Moses fulfilled his calling in the might of the Lord and led over three million people out of Egypt. As you read through the lines of this book, may the Lord open your eyes to the power of brokenness and its centrality in the service of the Lord.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meaningful Change is Based upon Something Much Stronger than Our Own Self-Will... When we make the decision to change, we often do it because we are sick and tired of the life that we have been living. That choice is usually based on an earnest desire to do things differently; however, under our own strength, it doesn't always work out that way. God is in the change business. He has the ability to make all things work together for the good of those that place their faith in Him. God promises us that He can and will heal us through His Holy Spirit... From the Author... When most people hear the word recovery, they first think about overcoming addiction to drugs and alcohol. While an important part of the process of overcoming addiction, true recovery is for all of us who are tired of anything that may be destroying our lives. It is for all of us who want to stop living in grief, fear, anxiety, guilt and shame. It is for all of us who want to separate ourselves from the issues of the past. And it is for those of us who want to turn our will and our life over to a sovereign God who loves and forgives us. Our hope is that through this study will help you to strengthen your faith and grow closer to Him. Reviews..."Raw, life-changing and inspired, Kerby and McCraigh connect us to the power that changes lives." -- Dean Angell, Senior Pastor, Lakeview Church, Canada "No matter how badly we've messed up our lives, this book shows we don't have to be alone". -- Judy (Mrs. Larry) Burkett "Awesome book! I have been in recovery since the mid-80s. I have checked out different Christian recovery books, but I really like this the best. It is written very plainly with a clear message of biblical truth. One of the things that I most like about it is that it is not oriented to any particular addiction. Instead, it is written more from a perspective that we all struggle in life and this workbook applies to whatever your issues are. It is a good book for everyone...for those who recognize their brokenness and for those who don't! For those who are churched and for those who are not. It has a really comforting message and points us to the love of God. Jim shows how God can bring healing and restoration to broken lives. And more importantly, they show that He can use us even now...even in the midst of our brokenness. God does not expect us to clean up to come to Him. He wants us to come to Him and allow Him to clean us up. I highly recommend this workbook!" --- Abigail Wolfer, Indiana "Twelve Healing Words Help Readers Remain Close to God Through Difficult Times... Beginning with its compelling cover that touches a remote part of your soul, "The Power of Brokenness" aims to help readers grow closer to God through twelve special "healing" words. These words (some examples include "denial," "trust," "forgiveness," and "vigilance") deal with faith, action, and growth and help us move past the fear and anxiety of the past into a future of hope and everlasting life. In a conversational tone, this book presents a unique spiritual study of these common (and a few not-so-everyday) words that we rarely spend time thinking deeply about. Useful advice is presented in easy-to-digest chunks that can be applied to our lives." --- Christina M. Downs, author of Simply Balanced: Bible Contradictions Teach Balanced Living "Wonderful Biblical Resource for 12 Step Recovery... This workbook is clearly laid out and explains in detail how to effectively work the 12 Steps. Each aspect of the Steps is discussed using clear Biblical references and principles. Excellent for individual or group use." --- S. O. Brennan Tequesta, FL

Download or read book Loving Well in a Broken World written by Lauren Casper and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we love our neighbors amid so much division and hurt? Loving your neighbor as yourself would be easy if your neighbors were all people you understood, people you agreed with, people like you. But what about playground bullies, colleagues, refugees, online adversaries? They're all our neighbors, and Jesus said to love them. Every one. But how? Lauren Casper believes the key is the lost art of empathy, stepping into other people’s shoes and asking what if?—what if it were my child? What if it were me? Casper helps us discover how to identify our blind spots and tune our hearts to the stories around us; seek and extend forgiveness with grace and humility; and engage in diverse and meaningful relationships. Following these steps will enable us to connect in simple but life-altering ways, to respond to conflict with grace, bring about needed change, and shine God’s unconditional love into a dark world.

Download or read book The Power of a Broken Open Heart written by Julie Interrante and published by Compassionate Arts Pub. This book was released on 2010-02-15 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if life, beneath the surface, were composed of a series of transitions with the potential to break open our hearts? And what if our broken-open hearts could ease our approach to living? Building on her decades of work in hospital and hospice care, in this illuminating book Julie Interrante weaves together insights from those facing great challenge with her own discoveries to reveal the importance of embracing pain. Whether sparked by the loss of a friend or loved one, a pet or long-held belief, a job or a marriage, a home and community, or physical capacity, pain breaks open the heart, catalysing great courage, trust, and creativity for living life joyfully. It also heightens our attunement to nature's cycle of seasons, as well as our own, which moves us full tilt into our living and eventually into our dying. This is not an instruction manual. Nor is it a set of religious guidelines. Rather, it is a down-to-earth exploration of vulnerability and change. Ultimately it offers a new lens on life's gift of transitions.

Book excerpt: Life Is Never Mainly About Love and Marriage. So Learn to Live and Date for More. Many of you grew up assuming that marriage would meet all of your needs and unlock God's purposes for you. But God has far more planned for you than your future marriage. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. He will likely write a love story for you different than the one you would write for yourself, but that's because he loves you and knows how to write a better story. This book was written to help you find real hope, happiness, and purpose in your not-yet-married life.
