Download or read book The Secret Place written by Woody Money and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-13 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Woody Money was doing the Lord's work. He was deeply involved with five different ministries. He took part in three Bible study groups and was a passionate street evangelist, but something was missing. His marriage was in trouble and teetering on the edge of divorce. He was serving the Lord, but not engaged with Him. God saved Woody's marriage-and Woody himself-with a simple but powerful dream. With love and grace, Woody was reminded that to be Christian is to be the bride of Christ, not a housemaid. To be a maid is to work for the Lord. To be a bride is to work with the Lord, a much more intimate and infinitely more rewarding relationship. Told with humor, openness, and an overwhelming sense of God's love, The Secret Place is an inspiring memoir of one man's journey to divine intimacy. From his teenage battle with pornography and sexual addiction to his revitalized role as a true bride of Christ, Woody offers hope, joy, and the promise of peace. Woody found his secret place in the Lord-a deeply freeing satisfying intimacy. You too can make your own journey to intimacy with God and find the secret place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An uplifting look at three famous and flawed fathers of the Christian church and how their lives can inspire us to fall in love with God and find the power to overcome our weaknesses. Augustine grappled with sexual passion. Martin Luther struggled to control his tongue. John Calvin fought the battle of faith with the world's weapons. Yet despite their failings, each man will always be remembered as a founding father to the Christian faith because of the messages they declared. And even with their deaths hundreds of years ago, their messages still speak today. John Piper explores each man's life, integrating Augustine's delight in God with Luther's emphasis on the Word and Calvin's exposition of Scriptures. Through their strengths and struggles, he teaches us how to better live today, for when we consider their lives, we behold the glory and majesty of God - and in that, find the power to overcome our weaknesses.

Book excerpt: What is joy? Ask ten different people and you'll get ten different answers. Yet if you asked: a man who grew up fatherless and destitute in the slums of Atlanta a young widow who decided to bring a neglected garden back to life in spite of agonizing physical pain and a deeply wounded spirit or author Dan Lord himself, ex-frontman for a popular indie rock band each would point to the one source of their joy: Jesus. They made the choice for joy, against all odds, and so can you, though the obstacles might seem insurmountable. Worry and anxiety, pain and suffering, the daily grind -- all these and more can block your path. When faced with such challenges, is it possible to get past the barriers, let go, and experience God's joy? When you look around, you might wonder -- although joy is a fruit of the Spirit, it doesn't seem to be hanging visibly from many Christian boughs. Choosing Joy aims to change that -- and change your life in the process -- as it helps you discover the key to this most attractive but seemingly elusive gift. Choosing Joy will help you overcome the obstacles and focus your heart, mind and strength on God so that you can receive the happiness and peace that the world cannot give.
