Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of submission elicits strong opinions from many people both inside and outside of the church. In his latest book, Touching Godliness through Submission, K.P. Yohannan, president and founder of Gospel for Asia, stakes out territory in one of the most misunderstood and controversial issues in modern Christianity. Drawing upon the life of Jesus as the ultimate example of truly yielding to God's will, Yohannan explains how something we see as our own worst enemy, submission, is actually the true pathway to freedom, healing and blessing. "You will find submission at the crossroads of every conflict in life," Yohannan said. "From children and their parents to the worker and his boss to the citizen and his president, you'll find people struggling with the concept of submission to authority. This teaching touches on daily life no matter what our current role." In Touching Godliness through Submission, Yohannan mixes highly practical and deeply divine concepts as he probes into the role of Christ and the fall of Satan. He also shows how man's natural tendency toward rebellion was inherited from the first man, Adam. Yohannan then explains the true nature of submission in the Christian's life, using illustrations drawn from Bible heroes as well as from events in his own life. A prolific author and highly regarded ministry leader, Yohannan often challenges commonly held views of Christians around the world. His previous books, including the landmark Revolution in World Missions, have moved many readers to abandon shallow Christianity in favor of a more intense, personal relationship with God. In Touching Godliness through Submission, Yohannan guides readers through the landmines of misconceptions about this often misunderstood subject. Gospel for Asia is an evangelical mission organization based in Dallas, Texas involved in sharing the love of Jesus across South Asia.

Book excerpt: It is not enough to be on the sidelines and watch others touch godliness-it is for you! So often we find ourselves on the outside looking in. We watch others who have a sincere godliness and a trust in the Lord that can't be stopped-yet it all seems so unattainable to us. K.P. Yohannan challenges us that we, too, can experience this godliness as we actively follow Christ down the path of surrender and submission. Chapter by chapter, he gets inside our heads and, with fatherly concern, confronts us with truth that few others are willing to say. Riveting, yet gentle. Comprehensive, yet concise. There is something for everyone on these pages. Includes a helpful study guide!
Download or read book Touching God written by Duc Dau and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Touching God: Hopkins and Love’ is the first book devoted to love in the writings of Gerard Manley Hopkins, illuminating our understanding of him as a romantic poet. Discussions of desire in Hopkins’ poetry have focused on his unrequited attraction to men. In contrast, Duc Dau turns to Luce Irigaray and Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s theories of mutual touch to uncover the desire Hopkins cultivated and celebrated: his love for Christ. ‘Touching God’ demonstrates how descriptions of touching played a vital role in the poet’s vision of spiritual eroticism. Forging a new way of reading desire and the body in Hopkins’ writings, the work offers fresh interpretations of his poetry.

Download or read book Gentle and Lowly written by Dane C. Ortlund and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians know that God loves them, but can easily feel that he is perpetually disappointed and frustrated, maybe even close to giving up on them. As a result, they focus a lot—and rightly so—on what Jesus has done to appease God’s wrath for sin. But how does Jesus Christ actually feel about his people amid all their sins and failures? This book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering. These chapters take readers into the depths of Christ’s very heart for sinners, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is and encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people. His longing heart for sinners comforts and sustains readers in their up-and-down lives.

Download or read book The Power of Godliness written by Jonathan A. Stapley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A church's liturgy is its ritualized system of worship, the services and patterns in which believers regularly participate. While the term often refers to a specific formal ritual like the Roman Catholic Mass, events surrounding major life events--birth, coming of age, marriage, death--are often celebrated through church liturgies. By documenting and analyzing Mormon liturgical history, Jonathan Stapley is able to explore the nuances of Mormon belief and practice. More important, he can demonstrate that the Mormon ordering of heaven and earth is not a mere philosophical or theological exercise. The Power of Godliness is the first work to establish histories for these unique liturgies and to provide interpretive frameworks for them.
