Download or read book Broken Windows of the Soul written by Arnold R. Fleagle, DMin and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2011-05-31 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Broken Windows of the Soul: The "Broken Windows Theory" suggests that a community can reduce crime and maintain social order when small problems are fixed promptly. Alternatively, minor vandalism (such as broken windows) left unrepaired, sends the message that no one cares-inviting more serious crimes. Fleagle and Lichi have applied this theory to the problem of sexual temptation and moral failure. Broken Windows of the Soul reveals the destructive nature of infidelity, sexual perversion and pornography and its effect on the culture and the church. Unless the cracks are quickly repaired, more "broken windows of the soul" are soon to follow. Fleagle and Lichi teach the regular practice of spiritual disciplines to transform the heart and experience deep character change. Each chapter includes questions for individual or group study.

Book excerpt: One young woman learns the true nature of power—both her own and others’—in the riveting conclusion to The Waking Land Trilogy. “Bates brilliantly concludes an impressive high fantasy trilogy with this tale of scheming and magic.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) Sophy Dunbarron—the illegitimate daughter of a king who never was—has always felt like an impostor. Separated from her birth mother, raised by parents mourning the loss of their true daughter, and unacknowledged by her father, Sophy desires only a place and a family to call her own. But fate has other ideas. Caught up in Elanna Valtai’s revolution, Sophy has become the reigning monarch of a once-divided country—a role she has been groomed her whole life to fill. But as she quickly discovers, wearing a crown is quite a different thing from keeping a crown. With an influx of magic-bearing refugees pouring across the border, resources already thinned by war are stretched to the breaking point. Half the nobility in her court want her deposed, and the other half question her every decision. And every third person seems to be spontaneously manifesting magical powers. When Elanna is captured and taken to Paladis, Sophy’s last ally seems to have vanished. Now it is up to her alone to navigate a political maze that becomes more complex and thorny by the day. And worse, Sophy is hiding a huge secret—one that could destroy her tenuous hold on the crown forever. “Sophy is truly a feminist hero: she embraces equality and justice for all—a theme running throughout the novel—while challenging societal norms.”—Booklist Don’t miss any of Callie Bates’s magical Waking Land trilogy: THE WAKING LAND • THE MEMORY OF FIRE • THE SOUL OF POWER

Download or read book Renovation Project written by Antwan Phelps and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-02-09 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world as we know it is full of transgression. People travel in many directions to cope with the difficulties behind the obstacles in their lives. In the end, the satisfaction they intended on receiving is lost in the wind. These obstacles are unavoidable, but how we push through them can paint the picture of our future. The Renovation Project introduces a formula that the soul needs to solve many problems that everyday obstacles bring. Gentrification is the key to letting go of all things that have been a hindrance to us and those around us. In this book, I give an example of a torn-down home, why renovation would be best, how renovation is possible, and how to maintain our renovated homes. In this case, our home is our souls. Enjoy! The Renovation Project has a scoop of both developmental psychology and spiritual awareness for individuals seeking guidance and wisdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Titled after a small gallery of the same name found in Rome, the poems are devoted to meditations on religious relics and works of art.

From holy statues, to cherished words, to historical monuments, Thompson seeks to vitalize the inanimate"--

Download or read book The Book of Mammon written by Robert Harding Morris and published by Author House. This book was released on 2005-03-28 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone yearns for “the good life” ... where children are reared in a loving, stimulating environment ... where youth are prepared for their future ... where adults achieve satisfaction through personal relationships and meaningfully rewarding work ... and where seniors find peace in their “golden” years. Typically, it entails economic sufficiency. Yet, when this universal hope becomes reality, many Christians confront a disturbing faith challenge. Jesus taught his followers to postpone earthly satisfactions until the next life. In the present world, their blessings will be found in poverty, hunger, sorrow, and persecution. Woe to those with wealth, full stomachs, laughter, and popularity! Christ practiced and demands self-denial, not self-satisfaction. Entry into Jesus’ severe life-style is difficult and the path is arduous. Multitudes are called but only a select few actually follow the way to eternal life that requires crucifixion of one’s self. This book is a thought-provoking biblical analysis of the gospel’s opposition to wealth. One cannot serve both God and money. The Christian dilemma is that practical faith absolutely requires compromise. Money is necessary for daily life and future needs. How is it possible to follow Christ in this money-driven society? The Book of Mammon searches the Bible for the surprising resolution.

Download or read book Pursued by Grace written by Colin A. Gittens and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Pursued by Grace: A Pastor's Restorative Journey, Colin recounts his experience of moral failure and his public and humiliating removal from ministry as a lead pastor of a large congregation. He candidly shares the effects this had on his family and on himself as a husband, father, and member of the clergy. Supported by references from the scriptures and lessons learned from other literature, Colin weaves his own story in with a very thorough examination of what leads someone—especially a Christian leader—to sin. He offers a firsthand account of the true cost of sin, and juxtaposes that humiliating and alienating ordeal with the tender, yet firm, love of his Heavenly Father, his loyal wife, his family and his supportive friends. Pursued by Grace is a story of redemption, restoration and resilience in the face of failure. While of particular interest to pastors, bible college students, and other Christian and secular leaders, this book provides important reflections and lessons for anyone struggling to avoid temptation, recover from doing wrong, and follow a Christian path.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In considering the lodestars of American neoconservative thought-among them Irving Kristol, Gertrude Himmelfarb, James Q. Wilson, and Francis Fukuyama-Antti Lepistö makes a compelling case for the centrality of their conception of "the common man" in accounting for the enduring power and influence of their thought. Lepistö locates the roots of this conception in the eighteenth-century Scottish Enlightenment. Subsequently, the neoconservatives weaponized the ideas of Adam Smith, Thomas Reid, and David Hume to denounce postwar liberal elites, educational authorities, and social reformers-ultimately giving rise to a defining force in American politics: the "common sense" of "the common man.""--

Although Sermons for Your Soul is a book of sermons it can also be used as a devotional tool. There are many scriptures embedded in the sermons for study and contemplation. I pray that the reader will be inspired through this book to trust God and to know that because He is omnipresent, they are never alone in what they go through.
