Download or read book Walking Through Fire written by Vaneetha Rendall Risner and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The astonishing, Job-like story of how an existence filled with loss, suffering, questioning, and anger became a life filled with shocking and incomprehensible peace and joy. Vaneetha Risner contracted polio as an infant, was misdiagnosed, and lived with widespread paralysis. She lived in and out of the hospital for ten years and, after each stay, would return to a life filled with bullying. When she became a Christian, though, she thought things would get easier, and they did: carefree college days, a dream job in Boston, and an MBA from Stanford where she met and married a classmate. But life unraveled. Again. She had four miscarriages. Her son died because of a doctor's mistake. And Vaneetha was diagnosed with post-polio syndrome, meaning she would likely become a quadriplegic. And then her husband betrayed her and moved out, leaving her to raise two adolescent daughters alone. This was not the abundant life she thought God had promised her. But, as Vaneetha discovered, everything she experienced was designed to draw her closer to Christ as she discovered "that intimacy with God in suffering can be breathtakingly beautiful."

With eloquence, Joni draws from her own trials and triumphs to enrich us all with the wisdom of Scripture. But she’s not the only one whose everyday life holds such potential. “Look down at your feet,” Joni writes. “The path sparkles. God has placed diamonds in the dust of your road too!”

Download or read book Isaiah written by Stephen Kaung and published by Christian Fellowship Publishers. This book was released on with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Testament quotes Isaiah more than any other book and mentions his name twenty-one times. The Lord Jesus and the early disciples all knew this book well and shared the good news from it. But for many of us, its sixty-six chapters and various prophecies are overwhelming. We begin to feel lost as we read, not knowing who or what it is talking about. The Ethiopian eunuch was also confused as he pondered over Isaiah 53 (see Acts 8:26-39). When Philip asked him if he understood what he was reading, he shared how he needed someone to guide him. Then from that passage, Philip was able to announce the good news of Jesus to him. Similarly, the nine chapters in this volume serve as a type of guide for discovering Christ in this largest prophetic book of the Bible. They unlock many confusing passages while also revealing our Savior. Beginning with Isaiah’s life-changing vision of God, Stephen Kaung then considers some of the more famous passages about the birth of the Lord Jesus, His life, and His suffering at the cross. We are guided through Scriptures on the future kingdom as well as essential help for our present situation in the church. As the Ethiopian found Christ through Isaiah and “went on his way rejoicing,” may we too find Christ our Redeemer in Isaiah and be filled with joy at the discovery.
