Download or read book Growing Old Together written by John M Cimbala and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to strengthen your marriage? Here is something different than your typical devotional book! It combines humor with serious Bible study and discussion questions. Designed for married couples, this devotional is based on a collection of humorous conversations between a husband and wife in their "golden" years after more than three decades of marriage. As we grow old, our memories fade, our hair falls out, and we get more quirks that oftentimes irritate our spouse. The author has found humor in this process of growing old together, and he shares some of that humor with his readers. The content for each devotional is a comical conversation (Laugh Together) with a related Bible passage, a devotional (Read Together), some serious discussion questions to work through (Discuss Together), a longer Bible passage for further study (Study Together), and an invitation to pray together as a couple (Pray Together). The comical conversations are designed to make you laugh, because the author believes what the Bible says: "A joyful heart is good medicine." The unique combination of a comic and a Christian devotional makes this book both humorous and serious. This devotional book is ideal for couples who have been married for a long time because they will be most able to relate to the conversations. However, even newlyweds or single persons should be able to appreciate the humor of growing old together and learn from the devotionals and Bible studies. There are 52 devotionals, one for each week for a year. Enjoy!Additional Bible studies, devotionals, articles, books, and more can be found at the author's Christian Faith Grower website: www.christianfaithgrower.com.
Download or read book Why I Love the Apostle Paul written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Besides Jesus, no one has kept me from despair, or taken me deeper into the mysteries of the gospel, than the apostle Paul." —John Piper No one has had a greater impact on the world for eternal good than the apostle Paul—except Jesus himself. For John Piper, this impact is very personal. He does not just admire and trust Paul. He loves him. Piper gives us thirty glimpses into why his heart and mind respond this way. Can a Christian-killer really endure 195 lashes from a heart of love? Can a mystic who thinks he was caught up into heaven be a model of lucid rationality? Can an ethnocentric Jew write the most beautiful call to reconciliation? Can a person who lives with the unceasing anguish of empathy be always rejoicing? Can a man's description of the horrors of human sin be exceeded by his delight in human splendor? Can a man with a backbone of steel be as tender as a nursing mother? If we know this man—if we see what Piper sees—we too will love him. Paul's testimony is a matter of life and death. Piper invites you into his relationship with Paul in the hope that you will know life, forever.
Download or read book How to Help Your Anxious Teen written by Jessica Thompson and published by Harvest House Publishers. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Help Your Teen Find Joy and Peace If your son or daughter is suffering from anxiety, you probably have more questions than answers: What is causing the anxiety? Is this normal teenage angst or something more serious? What can I do to help? Jessica Thompson, the mother of three teens, has seen kids struggle with anxiousness. She wants you to understand the issues surrounding teenage anxiety and how our culture, the church, and perhaps even you may be contributing to the problem. The culture tells kids that it’s not okay to be normal, that social media is vital to their well-being, and that athletic, academic, and other accolades are all-important. The church, though well-intentioned, sometimes places undue pressure on teens to “do big things for God” and “be the best Christian you can be.” Caring parents may inadvertently overcorrect their teens’ behavior and try to control it (“helicopter parenting”). They may also use their kids’ accomplishments to build their own identity or try to be their children’s best friend. But there is help and hope for you and your teenager. When you equip yourself with truth from the gospel and the rest of God’s Word, you can help your child to cope with anxiety, and your family can experience greater freedom and peace.
Download or read book Don t Lose Heart written by Jason Meyer and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fallen world is full of reasons to lose heart. From the large-scale tragedies of war, famine, and natural disasters, to the more personal tragedies of broken relationships and broken dreams, it can be difficult to avoid discouragement--even for the believer. And yet, Scripture calls us to a life of hope, based not on wishful thinking or avoiding our problems but based on who God is, what he has done, and what he is still doing. In this short, giftable book, pastor Jason Meyer shows you that though the reasons for discouragement seem strong, the reasons we have to take heart and hold on to hope are stronger yet. Through biblical truth and personal stories, Meyer encourages the weary and anxious believer by shining light on the nature of reality, the nature of God, and the intersection of the two in our daily, rubber-meets-the-road lives. The result is a book that lifts our spirits in a world that too often seeks to drag us down.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daily Devotions for People Who Hate Daily Devotions Let’s face it. A lot of Christian resources can feel cheesy, out-of-touch, and a little boring. But when Skye Jethani started doodling and writing up some of his thoughts about God, his Twitter and email list blew up. What If Jesus Was Serious? is a compilation of all-new reflections (and hand-drawn doodles) from Skye. He takes a look at some of Jesus’ most demanding teachings in the Sermon on the Mount and pushes us to ask whether we’re really hearing what Christ is saying.

If you’ve traditionally been dissatisfied with Christian devotional resources but love to learn about Jesus and think deeply, this book was written for you.

Book excerpt: Restore the Table shows readers the importance of meaningful mealtimes and how gathering around a table with those we love can help build relationships, improve our quality of life, and go deeper in our walk with God. When is the last time you gathered around the dinner table with those you loved without distractions, having meaningful and intentional conversation? If you can’t remember, you’re not alone. Americans have lost the art of gathering around the table. Busy schedules, digital distractions, and loneliness plague us, making gathering around the table for a meal feel like something from the distant past. This is why Pastor Ryan Rush posed a challenge to his congregation: have five meaningful mealtimes with those you love each week. The challenge took off and what happened was transformative. Marriages were strengthened, siblings got along better, people who had struggled with addictions began to face them, students’ grades improved. The table changed everything. In Restore the Table, Pastor Rush offers this challenge to all readers who want to strengthen their relationships, improve their quality of life, and go deeper in their walk with God. In the book, he addresses: the tables of our pasts and how they’ve impacted us why Jesus chose mealtimes to build relationships with people outside his circle how to create a healthy and intentional mealtime habit with your loved ones how the table can establish your legacy for years to come Restore the Table will convince readers that the table is so much more than the place we eat. When used intentionally for discipleship and connection, the table can change the world.
