This book was released on 2003-03-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When the heat is on and the battle is raging, know that as long as you are standing strong in the Lord, you won't be shot down or burned up by your circumstances. Think in terms of God's power. As long as you stand with God-and don't give up-you win." Most ministers and psychologists agree that personal change comes from within. And that change can only occur if you take a careful look at your own life and experience. That's certainly what Stormie Omartian discovered. Over thirty years ago she was so depressed, she considered suicide. Then she went through the seven-step process she described in her bestselling book, Lord, I Want to Be Whole. Now Stormie makes this process available to you in a personal walk to emotional well-being a walk with the truth of Scripture and the power of prayer at your side. Throughout your journey you will be observing the lives of some familiar people in the Bible. Many of these people had the same faults-and suffered the same problems-you do. The way the Lord guided them will be a path for you to follow. Each week you will work through interactive questions and thought-provoking Scriptures that will enable you to determine who you are, what you're doing, and where you're going. And then you will establish some guidelines for your future. "The healing and restoration I found is there for you too,"Stormie asserts. "Whether your hurt is from scars as far back as early childhood or from this week's untimely severing of a precious relationship, you can be whole spiritually and emotionally." This easy-to-use workbook serves as an excellent guide for either personal devotions or group study. Use it as a stand-alone Bible study or as a companion to Stormie's book, Lord, I Want to Be Whole.

Download or read book The Soul of a Pilgrim written by Christine Valters Paintner and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2015-05-05 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned author of eight books and abbess of the online retreat center Abbey of the Arts, Christine Valters Paintner takes readers on a new kind of pilgrimage: an inner journey to discover the heart of God. Eight stages of the pilgrim's way--from hearing the call to coming home--are accompanied by scripture stories of great biblical journeys and the author's unique and creative practices of prayer, writing, and photography. As she did in The Artist's Rule and Eyes of the Heart, Christine Valters Paintner once again helps readers travel to the frontiers of their souls to discover the hidden presence of God. In The Soul of a Pilgrim, Paintner identifies eight stages of the pilgrim's way and shows how to follow these steps to make an intentional, transformative journey to the reader's inner "wild edges." Each phase of the exploration requires a distinct practice such as packing lightly, being uncomfortable, or embracing the unknown. Paintner shows how to cultivate attentiveness to the divine through deep listening, patience, and opening oneself to the gifts that arise in the midst of discomfort. Each of the eight chapters offers reflections on the themes, a scripture story, an invitation to the practice of lectio divina, and a creative exploration through photography and writing.

A book for our times, indeed, for all time, ourselves and our families." - Admiral Bill Owens, US Navy (Ret), Former Vice-Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff No one escapes adversity in this life. At times we all struggle with personal pain that can seem unfair and overwhelming. How do we move forward without turning to self- destructive ways of coping or simply giving up? Christopher Greco's dynamic and faith-inspired book, 8 Steps to Overcoming Everyday Adversity, offers a concise roadmap on how to overcome whatever hardship we face, whether it's dealing with failure, illness, loss and grief, difficult life choices, anxiety about the future, or other challenges. Drawing heavily from his own personal experience, Greco describes how he overcame the event that changed his life and affected him and his family for many years. Rather than become a statistic, Greco sought to improve himself by leaning on his faith, learning in the process that dealing head-on with adversity, hardship, and suffering are necessary parts of the human experience and essential for personal growth. Greco believes we are put on this earth with a mission and lessons to be learned. How we handle adversity can help others find the strength to cope with their challenges as well. The path to a fulfilling, balanced life is possible no matter the circumstances, and this book will show you the way. christophergreco.org

Download or read book Steps to Personal Revival written by Helmut HAUBEIL and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On August 14, 2011, when I was in Kandergrund in the Bernese Highlands in Switzerland an important connection became very clear to me. I recognized a spiritual cause for why we are losing part of our youth. I was very shocked. I thought of my children and grandchildren. Since then I have been intensively occupied with this subject.Now I believe that the same spiritual cause is behind many of our problems; specifically the personal problems, in the local churches and the world-wide church. It is the lack of the Holy Spirit. If this is the cause, then we should urgently address this issue. If the cause can be eliminated or considerably reduced, then many problems will become superfluous or will be resolved.
