Jillian recognizes that there is a genuine need to have real-world advice on implementing God's call to love. The Call to Love lays out practical steps that can help you make vital changes in your life-changes that can help you shift your perspective and arrive at a place where you have more love to share. You may find yourself seeing others in a different light and feeling more able to love your neighbor with a true, godly love-and not just on Sunday morning! You already know the theology. The Call to Love shows you how to live it! Take the plunge and go from talking about love to living a life of love. You can be the change that society is longing for.

Book excerpt: “The best feel-good romcom you need right now.” Goodreads reviewer A mistaken arrest, an unpaid debt, and a trip to Vegas. Living in a small town where everyone knows your business isn’t easy. But when your dad is the business everyone talks about, it’s even harder. When Willa Montgomery becomes collateral to pay off her dad’s debt to local playboy Jameson Drake, she realizes things can always get worse. Forced to work for Jameson, she soon realizes there is more to him than meets the eye. Behind the delectable wrapping and gruff demeanor is a good guy who’s ready to help whenever Willa needs him. And the way he looks at her makes her think that the rumors are wrong. Because just maybe he doesn’t hate her as much as she thought. But has the former player really changed, or is he just warming up for his big game? This is the first book in the Sweet Dreams series and can be read as a standalone. Note from the author: In order not to get kicked out of the good (okay goodish.... fine, sometimes good) girls club, I’d like to point out that this is a steamy romcom and my characters use bad language (sometimes) and like to get it on. There’s no cheating and all my books have a HEA. #romanticcomedy #HEA #romcom #enemiestolovers #hotboss #alpha #broodyalpha #contemporaryromance #romance #quirky #funny #humour #humor #freebook #free #freeromance

We might say yes but still end up doing too much, too little, or nothing at all. What we need is a central idea to guide us. Relational Holiness offers us this very thing by inviting us to live a holy life that is most authentic when it is centered on love-the heart of God's character.

Book excerpt: Some things can come only when the Spirit takes over and somehow we become what we never thought we could be, because the Spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words. There are occasions when those sighs come to the surface and we know that God has taken our hearts to places we did not know could exist. -- from Proper 12 sermon, "Strength Out of Weakness" Through fascinating anecdotes and stories drawn from his wide-ranging ministerial experience, Tom Garrison applies epistle readings from the Revised Common Lectionary to contemporary life. His powerful and insightful messages proclaim the good news, trumpeting God's amazing and unconditional love for us while reciting countless examples of how we can reflect that love in our everyday lives. His illustrations have a folksy charm, and readers will discover that the sermons of this veteran preacher provide plenty of nourishing food for thought. Sermon titles include: * The Pain of Caring (Romans 9:1-5) * A Living Sacrifice (Romans 12:1-8) * Who Am I to Judge Another? (Romans 14:1-12) * Living on the Edge (Philippians 1:21-30) Tom M.

Download or read book No House to Call My Home written by Ryan Berg and published by Bold Type Books. This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deep and intimate look at the lives of LGBTQ youth in foster care, vividly chronicling their struggles, fears and hardships, and revealing the force that allows them to carry on: the irrepressible power of hope. In this lyrical debut, Ryan Berg immerses readers in the gritty, dangerous, and shockingly underreported world of homeless LGBTQ teens in New York. As a caseworker in a group home for disowned LGBTQ teenagers, Berg witnessed the struggles, fears, and ambitions of these disconnected youth as they resisted the pull of the street, tottering between destruction and survival. Focusing on the lives and loves of eight unforgettable youth, No House to Call My Home traces their efforts to break away from dangerous sex work and cycles of drug and alcohol abuse, and, in the process, to heal from years of trauma. From Bella's fervent desire for stability to Christina's irrepressible dreams of stardom to Benny's continuing efforts to find someone to love him, Berg uncovers the real lives behind the harrowing statistics: over 4,000 youth are homeless in New York City -- 43 percent of them identify as LGBTQ. Through these stories, Berg compels us to rethink the way we define privilege, identity, love, and family. Beyond the tears, bluster, and bravado, he reveals the force that allows them to carry on -- the irrepressible hope of youth.

As a single mother, Maddy Walkers life has been anything but easy, yet despite her pain and loss, she has committed her life to loving and serving others. Throughout the story, Maddys faith is stretched as God teaches her how to love, enabling her to touch the lives of many people in her community. When Maddy discovers that she is facing some serious health issues, she is tempted to withdraw, uncertain she has anything left to give. Her only prayer is to live long enough to see her daughter married and to know that Dani will be taken care of. But God is not finished with Maddy. When Isobelle Davis moves to town, God prompts Maddy to befriend her. Thrown into the midst of unwelcome change, Isobelle is struggling with feelings of anger and discontentment. Yet God uses what Isobelle views as a negative circumstance to provide an answer to Maddys prayer. In the process, Isobelles attitude is transformed and she gains new perspective as she is able to see how Gods hand was orchestrating it all.
