Book excerpt: Janet Grillo's husband died tragically on December 13, 2001. It wasn't clear whether his death was a suicide, assisted suicide, suggested suicide, or murder. After his death, she was shocked to learn that he was part of an organized crime ring when a close friend of her husband told her he had been involved with the Mafia. Janet wrote this book to help others understand that healing after a tragic loss does not happen overnight. When a sudden loss occurs, we are devastated beyond our wildest imagination. We have so many questions and have no idea where to turn for answers. Instead, we fold within ourselves and pray to God to help us through our pain. Sometimes we wonder if God truly exists. After her loss, Janet sat perpetual adoration at her Catholic church and decided to use her journal to write directly to God. One day she wondered what God would say if He wrote back. She began a new page with "Dear Janet" and signed it "Love, God." Empty lines waited patiently while she waited anxiously to see if her request was crazy or profound. Janet was amazed when God spoke to her through her head, heart, and soul. She shares the inspiring messages in the pages of this book.

Our wilderness experience as we travel to the Promised Land is a step-by-step process that will transform the life of a lost sheep crying out in the wilderness into that of an empowered disciple.

This journey through the wilderness will inspire you to conquer a painful past, low self-esteem, and spiritual torment that is designed to break your spirit and kill your dreams. Take a walk with author Pamela Farrar through trials and tribulations as she presses her way through branches of bad choices, climbs mountains of impossibilities, and traverses the dense terrain of setbacks and disappointments. He Changed Me will lead you on a path of spiritual freedom and self-awareness.

Download or read book The Biblical Illustrator Vol 45 Pastoral Commentary on Romans written by Joseph Exell and published by Primedia E-launch LLC. This book was released on 2013-10-20 with total page 2377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **This ebook version of The Biblical Illustrator - Pastoral Commentary on Romans contains nearly 3800 pages of commentary! What if Charles Spurgeon helped you prepare next Sunday’s sermon? Or what if you could talk over your preaching with Joseph Parker, Richard Baxter, Henry Ward Beecher and H. P. Liddon. Do you think it would make a difference to get the input of some of the greatest preachers who ever lived? That’s precisely what Joseph Exell had in mind when he put together the massive series of volumes called The Biblical Illustrator. In what can only be called a Herculean feat, he spent years gathering preaching notes and sermon outlines from the very best preachers of his day (in the late 1800s and early 1900s), and he did it covering every book of the Bible. And it is amazingly comprehensive. Exell approached his task by taking every verse in the Bible and seeking to discover how it has been preached in the past. Though there is plenty of exegetical material here, this is not primarily a commentary. This series is for preachers, teachers, Bible students and anyone else looking for penetrating pastoral insights from some of the all-time greats of the faith.

He also served as Missionary Associate for the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention as professor and principle of the Barbados Theological Collage, Barbados, West Indies. This study comes out of over forty years of preaching and teaching from Paul's Book of Romans. Ponder These Questions In Your Heart. As a Christian, do you sometimes feel incomplete, insufficient, insignificant, unworthy and unable to live as you desire? At your best do you feel you are a failure and at your worse you are just no good? Do you feel that the things you do are never satisfying to you and are unworthy of God's approval? Do you sometimes feel the person you are as a husband, wife, mother, father, neighbor, Christian worker is never good enough? Your heart's cry is, "Oh, I wish I could be a better husband, wife, parent, Christian." Are you at times able to say, "I do know some victory, some joy, some peace, but my defeats and despairs are greater than I believe they ought to be? Have you tried and tried but you are always failing, ending up empty? You may at times feel like the fellow who said, "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired." If these express your feeling, then you know what Paul was feeling when he said, "Who can deliver me from this death" (Romans 7:25). If your answer to these question is Yes, this study is especially for you.
