Sample Book Insights: #1 The author’s wife, Carol, was a sales representative who had been thinking about going back to work. She had earned extra money working in a bank at the beginning of their marriage, and the money helped furnish their honeymoon apartment. By mutual agreement, she stopped working when Julie was born. #2 The couple was able to save up enough money to buy a boat and a car, and they were able to lease a two-bedroom house. But they were still struggling to make ends meet. The strain of keeping their household afloat began to take a toll on them. #3 The world in which we live has its own ideas about how to achieve the good life, ideas that are far different from God’s order. We strain to keep it all together, but the pressure is often like a tight band around our chest. #4 The American standard of living has improved greatly over the last century. However, our moral/spiritual/relational standard of living has plummeted. We are better-off than we were even just twenty-five years ago, but our desires for instant gratification have taken the place of deferring to a time when we can pay cash for our wants.

Download or read book The Man in the Mirror written by Barry S. Ross and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-15 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As God inspired the writing of this book I was meditating on my personal life and on where I was over twenty something years ago as I began my Christian journey. I thought about where God have brought me from to where I now stand boldly in faith! I thought about how true the word of God is and how I put it through the test by practical application throughout the years! I thought about when I started the study of the scriptures in the book of Proverbs and how in the ending of that study I confessed to God how big of a fool I myself had been, for therein it declare how the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge but fools despise wisdom and instruction. I realized that it was because of that very reason I myself had suffered many adversities in my life! I was then lead to the words of James the brother of Jesus where he used as a figure of speech, a glass or mirror that an individual behold one's natural face in and go on one's way immediately forgetting one's reflection that the glass revealed of one's self. He used this speech to highly magnify the word of God that it is like a glass that one look into which give the spiritual reflection of the one looking into it. The difference being that God's word takes one deeper than the natural into one's inner most being. It being quick and powerful sharper than any double edged sword piercing even to the dividing asunder of the soul and spirit the joints and the marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart or mind. I thought about the way that I look at others both the converted and the unconverted and how even today in my converted state of being I have no right to judge or cast stones at no other human being because when I look into the mirror (the perfect law of liberty - the word of God) I see the reflection of a man who being the chief of sinners have been saved only by the grace and the mercy of God! God require obedience and mercy rather than sacrifice! I have learned by hearing God's word and applying what I have heard to my own life is how God have brought me to where I am in him through faith in Jesus Christ today! I understand the importance of practical application of God's word in my daily life! I believe by practical application in the faith of Christ, God bring about our justification in himself! When I look at "The Man In The Mirror," I am constantly mindful of where God have brought me from, then stepping back I always ask myself, Who am I to judge or cast stones at anyone else? I must first remove the plank from my own eye in order to see clearly to remove the speck that is in another human beings eye! I thank God that he have provided us a mirror in which we can look continually and see a true reflection of who we really are; sinners saved by grace! If we continue to look daily into the mirror we will not be a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, in that, we are continually remineded to love God with all our mind, body, and soul and to love others as we love ourselves! Before "Casting Stones," let us remember first, to look at "The Man In The Mirror!" This book unlike none other, get to the root a judgmental, hypocritical spirit and how to cast it out! You my friend do not want to be without this inspirational book available to you today!

Download or read book Not Yet Married written by Marshall Segal and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
Download or read book The Pursuit of the Holy written by Simon Ponsonby and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2010 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Be holy as I am holy," says the Lord. It's the most extravagant--and audacious--invitation ever sent: Or in the words of Jesus: "Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect." But can that really happen? Is holiness an achievable goal for sinful human beings? That's the ultimate focus of this thoughtful, thorough, and engaging study of what it means to be holy. Drawing on the Bible and Christian thinkers through the ages, Simon Ponsonby affirms that because of God's gracious love and desire for communion with us, he has done what is possible for us not only to pursue holiness, but to achieve it. While we can never count on attaining moral perfection in this life, we need not settle for less than increasing victory over sin. And as more and more Christians choose to partner with God in the ongoing process of sanctification, we set the stage for revival.

Download or read book A Stranger in the House of God written by John Koessler and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-08-30 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up the son of agnostics, John Koessler saw a Catholic church on one end of the street and a Baptist on the other. In the no-man’s land between the two, this curious outside wondered about the God they worshipped—and began a lifelong search to comprehend the grace and mystery of God. A Stranger in the House of God addresses fundamental questions and struggles faced by spiritual seekers and mature believers. Like a contemporary Pilgrim’s Progress, it traces the author’s journey and explores his experiences with both charismatic and evangelical Christianity. It also describes his transformation from religious outsider to ordained pastor. John Koessler provides a poignant and often humorous window into the interior of the soul as he describes his journey from doubt and struggle with the church to personal faith

Download or read book The Pinnacle of Holiness written by D. L. Anderson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-02-28 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theres more to inheriting eternal life than what many of us have been told. Depending upon your level of spiritual commitment, this statement may or may not mean anything to you. But it means everything to me. Why? It is because eternal life represents the progressive alternative to endless death, the only other potential final destination of my soul. Therefore, as the soul shall subsist forever, securing eternal life should be the primary objective of every progressive existence. At the same time, many have been deceived into believing that inheriting eternal life is as easy as saying a simple prayer or having an undeveloped, meager level of faith. Still, the reality is that inheriting eternal life [i.e. the greatest prize of all time] will naturally require the greatest investment of all time a life dedicated to the will of the Father which is the basis of progressive spiritualism. Accordingly, the scriptures teach us For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? [See Matthew 16:25-26]. In my opinion, any honest person would come to this conclusion and would rightfully (as well as willfully) desire to make the necessary investment required to obtain the prize of eternal life. The problem is that many honest believers havent been told the whole story and are preparing to go to the Judgment with many of their works undone. Consequently, the question of the hour is simply this what more is there to the story? Conclusively, the answers to this inquiry are found within this volume of The Pinnacle of Holiness. Building off the former volume which provides a high-level description of the path which leads to eternal life, this volume will focus on providing detailed information about the path. Thus it should be viewed as a spiritual training manual which each sojourner soldier can employ to ensure that they are abiding by every criterion associated with inheriting eternal life. In the end (and with regards to the delicate matter of eternal life), the most critical factors are the instructions which the Father has revealed to us by His Spirit and recorded within His Word. Definitively, these spiritual and scriptural disclosures are contained within this volume. As the scriptures have said, And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
