A guidebook, a teacher, and a resource, all in one, I Want God brings rich simplicity to life-altering principles, perfect for your personal Lenten reflection. With her signature boldness and raw authenticity, author and podcast host of The Jesus Over Everything podcast, Lisa Whittle inspires with bottom line truth when we want Him and experience a soul revival, there is no limit to what we will do for Him.

Download or read book A Few Yards Shy of Heaven written by Kevin Giffin and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-07-19 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Few Yards Shy of Heaven smothers the canvas with a litany of hues that convey the mastery football has on its fans, players, and coaches. Beyond entertainment, the game possesses the ability to completely altar rational thought. Although it crosses various levels of achievement, the heart of the game beats strongest at the high school level, where pageantry is by-product of town identity. A Few Yards Shy of Heaven details one aberrational championship football season for the people of South Heaven, Ohio. In 1980, South Heaven is struggling to overcome hardships and a deplorable economy that is forcing family-owned business to close, pushing unemployment to record high levels, and creating a general malaise of sorrow. The people find resolute escape in the unexpected and amazing success of their hometown Rangers. Melvin Wright is an outsider and young reporter assigned by a large Cleveland paper to cover South Heaven. Although his professional task is to write a story on the closure of the auto plants, Wright allows his personal agenda to overwhelm logic; expressive resentment toward the people of western Ohio. Wright holds the people responsible for his recent assignment to nowhere, and possesses an awkward sympathy for those in South Heaven desperate to leave. Mostly from spite, he develops an appetite for the surreal fascination the South Heaven faithful have in their team, despite a lack of a viable economic future. As days turn into weeks, Wright cannot avoid misfortune, and as such, cannot leave western Ohio. He is forced to endure a football season in small town America. However, as those weeks turn into months, Wright is transformed spiritually and begins to wallow in that same surrealism, only he discovers that the fascination is not about football but more about the sensation of home and small town life.
Download or read book Touchdowns for Jesus and Other Signs of Apocalypse written by Marcia W. Mount Shoop and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do sports matter so much to so many people? And why should we care? Far from being a distraction or a trivial pastime, sports tell us deep truths about ourselves. Big-time sports are a particularly potent mirror for humanity--reflecting both our promising possibilities and our demonic distortions. Theologian (and football coach's wife) Marcia Mount Shoop invites you to take a closer look at the hold that sports have on us. Touchdowns for Jesus takes you beneath the veil in some of the most challenging issues in sports today: fanaticism, sexism, racism, and abuse of power. And beneath the lifted veil you also encounter wisdom about how we can find our way back to what is most life-giving about sports. If you love sports, or if you just wonder why others do, Touchdowns for Jesus will give you a whole new way to view the games people play. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
Download or read book Heaven Quest written by Joshua Ledesma and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Book 2 of the Heaven Quest series, this book capitalizes on the lesson of Chapter 15 from Book 1. The parable of the wheat and tares explains how the children of the kingdom will be separated from the children of the wicked one, or more importantly that the humans going to heaven will be separated from the ones going to hell. After being asked to separate good plants from unwanted weeds one day and realizing how hard it was to tell the difference in some instances, I realized that if I didn't want to be mistaken by a tare, I'd better get to work on my spiritual appearance before the angels made what I would call a big mistake! Using the Bible, this book contains practical application to simple actions applicable to your life to make sure you are not accidentally mistaken as a tare and that you also stand out as someone who, for the others in this world, will definitely be in heaven one day. With stories from King Solomon putting his hand to the plow and at some point looking back to Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt to head to the Promised Land, this book contains many important lessons to help strengthen you spiritually on this journey we are all living out here on earth as we wait for the angels to come take us to heaven. It's time to do what Jesus said to do and let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Download or read book God and Football Why Men Love the Game written by Patrick Greak and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In football, coaches must trust their players not to make the same mistake over and over again. However, God never gives up on us, no matter how many times we make mistakes or commit sins. Remember that sinning is different from a mistake. To sin against the law of God requires intent against the law of God and the original Ten Commandments that God gave Moses.The connection between religion and sports is everywhere in our culture. Athletes and fans alike are known for praising God for all success. But beyond these public displays of religion is a spiritual connection that exits between our faith and our favorite teams. God and Football: Why Men Love the Game takes an in-depth look at this connection to show the spiritual reasoning behind our passions for the game. Playing or watching the game of football is beneficial physically and spiritually. Real-time decisions made during a game simulate decisions that will be made later in life off the field. Yet risk is involved and attached to the activity. Injuries can and do occur during games, just as spiritual injuries occur in our daily lives. While football is a fierce game, it teaches us the importance of following the rules, embracing discipline, committing to a team, and trusting in a higher power. Football helps make men better by reminding us of our mortality as well as teaching us valuable life and spiritual lessons. Find out more about the connection between football and spirituality in God and Football: Why Men Love the Game.

Download or read book Monumental Jesus written by Margaret M. Grubiak and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American landscape is host to numerous works of religious architecture, sometimes questionable in taste and large, if not titanic, in scale. In her lively study of satire and religious architecture, Margaret Grubiak challenges how we typically view such sites by shifting the focus from believers to doubters, and from producers to consumers. Grubiak considers an array of sacred architectural constructions—from "Touchdown Jesus" at the University of Notre Dame to the Wizard of Oz Mormon temple outside Washington D.C. to the renamed "Gumby Jesus" of the Christ of the Ozarks statue in Eureka Springs, Arkansas - and how such constructions are confronted by the doubt and dismissiveness articulated by the more skeptical of their viewers. These responses of doubt activate our religious built environment in ways unanticipated but illuminating, asking us, at times forcefully, to consider and clarify what it is we believe. Opening up new avenues of thinking about how people deal with theological questions in the vernacular, Grubiak’s book shows how religious doubt is made manifest in the humorous, satirical, blasphemous, and popular culture responses to religious architecture and image in modern America.

Download or read book Live Wise written by Scott Curtis Meischen and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every journey is best pursued by having an authentically wise guidebook to aid us in our understanding of (our ULR) how to wisely journey through life and reality. An authentically wise understanding (ULR understanding of life and reality) is informed both about how and why to travel, journey wisely. It is self-evident that truth and love matter to a life wisely lived, but it is not plainly evident whose explanation of life and reality (ELR) contains the very best explanation of constitutes enduring truth and authentic love. The God of the Bible said if left to ourselves, collectively we would be plagued by wars and rumors of wars, that famine and pestilent would plague our days. And we would also individually and in our intimate relationships as couples and families would find loving oneness much longed for but difficult to find and even more challengingly to sustain. Our much self-heralded humanly constructed ELRs, have not resulted in an enlightenment informed, progressively enriched existence but a reality persistently plagued by unity/chaos, clarity/confusion, peace/despair, and all life still finally ends in death. We were warned by the God of the Bible, we would come to suffer from a mind and heart condition similar to snow blindness termed reality blindness: better equipped to see analytically but yet persistently, congenitally spiritually blinded. Reality blindness is a congenital condition of humanity, a manifestation of being spiritually stillborn, if we elect to exist outside of a right standing with God. When all things are relative being equally true and false at the same time in the same relationship nothing is relevant: real gold is equal to fool’s gold, momentary lust and enduring love are equally valid emotional expressions. Humanly sourced understanding results in a form of mental, emotional hypothermia: reality began at my birth, all meaning is temporary, and in death we return to nothingness. In our various hypothermic states of existence, we numb our inevitable despair by self-medications found in drugs, sex, achievement, entertainment, etc. or some lash out with a coping strategy of hurting themselves or others. But wait! All is not lost. Our existence failure is not new nor unexpected nor unexplained. God created us with love hungry hearts only He can satisfy. God is both the great physician and ultimate parent who can both heal us spiritual today and gift us with an eternal relationship for all our tomorrows including a post-physical-death forever home. But you have to respond with a yes and to His offer of the Live Wise Solution: forgiveness and adoption. As directed by God, Live Wise is a Jesus sourced how-to guidebook for facing life and reality’s complexities and messiness with the singularly valuable wisdom and love of God only found in God’s ELRs: Jesus and the Bible. Initially God’s offer is a gift of forgiveness of our sins and an outpouring of love and peace that only need be accepted. Stop. Think. Believe. You make the call. Live Wise.
