Download or read book Looking for God written by Nancy Ortberg and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-05 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We get so prescriptive with the spiritual life. We prepackage it, duplicate it, mass-produce it, insist upon it, and brag about it. We make it a formula. As a result, we tend to see God from such a narrow perspective. We box God up and compartmentalize Him into thirty minutes each morning. But in reality, He is waiting for us to realize that He invades all the parts of our days . . . if only we would pay attention. In Looking for God, Nancy Ortberg will inspire you to break away from the bland, formulaic approach to Christianity and embrace the often unexpected, at times unnerving, but always extraordinary power of God's grace. As you journey with Nancy, you'll find God in places you have never dreamed of looking, and you'll experience faith on a deeper level than you have ever imagined possible.
Download or read book Unconventional Beginnings written by J.D. Knibbs and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unconventional Beginnings recounts the story of a young engineer’s introduction to the cutthroat oil and gas business in the Canadian prairies. While Garth Gibbins longs to be a farmer and maintain his family’s agrarian traditions, he discovers a real talent in his new career as a reservoir engineer at the Maldere Energy company in Calgary. As the main engineer for an area of shallow gas in Southeast Alberta, Garth has everything going for him: he has a great job; he has lots of friends; and he has a smart new girlfriend. When Garth’s father suffers a heart attack, Garth takes a leave of absence from work, which provides the opportunity for a rival engineer to step into much of Garth’s role. Tyler accelerates the pace of development and drilling in the area previously under Garth’s careful supervision. Upon Garth’s return to work, he struggles with management to slow the pace of drilling, fearing that this pace will lead to disaster. A man’s needless death on the drilling rig further propels Garth to dig into the company’s ambitions and motives. As corporate greed and conspiracy within Maldere compete against the young engineer’s principled stance, the intrigue builds and spreads into Garth’s personal life as well. Who can Garth trust? Are colleagues manipulating him? Is anything what it seems? These questions and others echo throughout this exploration of modern corporate ethics and personal development.

Download or read book The Religious Crisis of the 1960s written by Hugh McLeod and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-11-23 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1960s were a time of explosive religious change. In the Christian churches it was a time of innovation, from the 'new theology' and 'new morality' of Bishop Robinson to the evangelicalism of the Charismatic Movement, and of charismatic leaders, such as Pope John XXIII and Martin Luther King. But it was also a time of rapid social and cultural change when Christianity faced challenges from Eastern religions, from Marxism and feminism, and above all from new 'affluent' lifestyles. Hugh McLeod tells in detail, using oral history, how these movements and conflicts were experienced in England, but because the Sixties were an international phenomenon he also looks at other countries, especially the USA and France. McLeod explains what happened to religion in the 1960s, why it happened, and how the events of that decade shaped the rest of the 20th century.
