Download or read book The Covenant of Salt written by Nguumbur Lovette Ikongo and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Covenant of Salt, Nguumbur takes you on a journey that will give you hope and encouragement. She explores with authority insights on Gods ways and shows by biblical examples and personal experiences how He relentlessly pursues the people He created. She breaks down in practical terms what the salting process means for us today and its relevance in navigating the painful and daunting challenges of life – from confronting and defeating giants to the art of living at the Table, to discovering your true identity and actualising your true purpose. This book is for everyone who has ever struggled with either sin or pain and thought, “God is not able or willing to help me with this.” It is for everyone who has ever been in deep crisis and cried out for help and, finding none, resigned themselves to their situation. It is for everyone who has ever been delivered from shame and disgrace, and then found themselves in the same mess all over again, no matter how hard they tried. It is for everyone who has suffered abuse, lost spouse, children, friends, job, and possessions trying to find themselves in this world. It is for everyone who finds themselves perpetually asking, “Why me? Why am I here? Will I ever make it?” Hopefully, this book will provide the answers you seek. You will discover that God is real. He is still as active and potent in our day and in our individual lives as He was in the days of the Bible. You will find that he is the healer of hearts, binder of wounds, and restorer of lost lives and fortunes. He flows through our lives and fills every part of it with His relentless and wild love. This book will not only change the way you see God in your life, it will give you hope, encourage your heart and deepen your relationship with Him.

Download or read book A Living Covenant written by David Hartman and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “‘A covenantal vision of life, with mitzvah (divine commandment) as the central organizing principle in the relationship between Jews and God, liberates the intellect and the moral will. I seek to show that a tradition mediated by the Sinai covenant can encourage the development of a human being who is not afraid to assume responsibility for the ongoing drama of Jewish history. Passive resignation is seen not to be an essential trait of one whose relationship to God is mediated by the hearing of mitzvot.” —from the Introduction This interpretation of Jewish teaching will appeal to all people seeking to understand the relationship between the idea of divine demand and the human response, between religious tradition and modernity. Hartman shows that a life lived in Jewish tradition need not be passive, insulated, or self-effacing, but can be lived in the modern pluralistic world with passion, tolerance, and spontaneity. The Judaic tradition is often seen as being more concerned with uncritical obedience to law than with individual freedom and responsibility. In A Living Covenant, Hartman challenges this approach by revealing a Judaism grounded in a covenant—a relational framework—informed by the metaphor of marital love rather than that of parent-child dependency. This view of life places the individual firmly within community. Hartman shows that the Judaic tradition need not be understood in terms of human passivity and resignation, but rather as a vehicle by which human individuality and freedom can be expressed within a relational matrix.

With each stop, Margaret asks, "How do you read these Scriptures, not as theologians, but in light of what you do every day?" Taste and See teaches us that: As we break bread, we find the satisfaction of our deepest hungers in the community our souls crave As we share our lives, we taste and see God's fruitfulness When we're tempted to lose heart--and we all will be--we find courage in listening to and participating in stories of God's rescuing ways In the midst of a busy life, we can all create space to taste and see God's goodness Taste and See is a delicious read that includes dozens of recipes for those who, like Margaret, believe some of life's richest moments are spent savoring a meal with those you love.
