Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise God! I was given the opportunity to share the words and songs he has given me throughout my lifetime. I pray that when reading this book, you realize how awesome our Father in heaven actually is. He is real. He is holy. He is all-powerful. He is the answer to any and every problem you may be facing now or are confronted with in the future. Satan is a liar and trying desperately to get people to turn away from our loving Father, but remember, his time is short""God is eternal. There is nothing that can come upon you that God hasn't already taken care of. Even death is a win situation when you believe in our Savior, Jesus Christ. God has everything under control. I pray that when reading this book, you feel encouraged, strengthened, and have the peace that passes all understanding. I pray that you can learn to laugh at adversity, and praise God in all things, remembering that all things work together for the good to them that love God (Romans 8:28). God has provided everything we need to live in joy on this earth. Every answer to all questions and every test can be found in his precious word, the Bible. As Barnaby would say, "It's an open book test." Barnaby was the minister that encouraged me to actually read the Bible that had been gathering dust for so many years on my bookshelf. I thank God for Barnaby and his ministry. I pray that the words and songs in this book will encourage you to pick up your Bibles and to start reading. I pray that it makes you hungry for more knowledge of our precious God and Savior, Jesus Christ. "Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him and sup with him and him with me" (Revelation 3:20). I pray that God blesses you abundantly and that you live in peace and understanding.

Allen, Jr.—Barron, founder of Word on Fire Catholic Ministries, proclaims in vivid language the goodness and truth of the Catholic tradition.

Download or read book Unlikely Fighter written by Greg Stier and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some memories are permanently seared into our childhood brains with a hot iron of adrenaline and fear. For five-year-old Greg, it was the memory of his ma walking back to the house after confronting his stepdad with a splintered, bloodied baseball bat in her hand. Greg Stier was raised in a family of bodybuilding, tobacco-chewing, fist-fighting thugs. He never knew his biological father because his mom had met his dad at a party; she got pregnant, and he left town. Though his mom almost aborted him, in a last-minute twist, Greg’s life was spared for so much more. Unlikely Fighter is the incredible story of how God showed up in Greg’s life—and how he can show up in yours as well. This is a memoir of violence and mayhem—and how God can transform everything.

Book excerpt: Douglas O'Donnell draws out the historical, exegetical, and theological significance of the songs of Moses, Deborah, Hannah, David, and Habakkuk.

God's Lyrics offers both a corrective and a call-a corrective to sing of Christ from the Psalms, the Law and the Prophets, and a call to use the whole counsel of God in worshiping him.

Arrangements of these new hymns can be downloaded from the God's Lyrics page on www.prpbooks.com. Book jacket.

Download or read book I You and the Word God written by Sarah Zhang and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I, You, and the Word “God” introduces the approach of lyrical ethics, inspired by Emmanuel Levinas’s ethical-phenomenological philosophy. Through the optics of lyrical ethics, the reader discovers how the ancient erotic poems of the Song of Songs bear ethical and theological significance for contemporary readers. Levinas’s intertwined concepts—oneself qua sensibility, otherness perceived through responsibility, and transcendence embodied in one’s love for the other—reveal themselves as lyrical colors woven into the fabric of Song 4:1–7, 5:2–8, and 8:6. More importantly, Levinas’s understanding that poetic language breaks the tautology of logocentric discourse and gestures to the outside of consciousness provides the theoretical ground for the listener to solicit meaningfulness from the Song. Through this lyrical reading of the selected poetic units, the book demonstrates that the traditional interpretive methods of representative description, narrative paraphrase, and thematic distillation fail to encounter the otherness of poetry. In contrast, lyrical ethics pays attention to that which transcends consciousness: the awakening of the reader’s subjectivity, the saying underlying the said, the sound of the sense, and the invisibility of the visible. The Song so caressed reveals in human love the purposelessly purposive encounter with God.
Download or read book Expository Exultation written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2018-04-16 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “God has appointed preaching in worship as one great means of accomplishing his ultimate goal in the world.” —John Piper John Piper makes a compelling claim in these pages about the purpose of preaching: it is intended not merely as an explanation of the text but also as a means of awakening worship by being worship in and of itself. Christian preaching is a God-appointed miracle aiming to awaken the supernatural seeing, savoring, and showing of the glory of Christ. Distilling over forty years of experience in preaching and teaching, Piper shows preachers how and what to communicate from God’s Word, so that God’s purpose on earth will advance through Biblesaturated, Christ-exalting, God-centered preaching—in other words, expository exultation.

Book excerpt: Everyone worships. But Jesus tells us that God is seeking a particular kind of worshiper. In True Worshipers, a seasoned pastor and musician guides readers toward a more engaging, transformative, and biblically faithful understanding of the worship God is seeking. True worship is an activity rooted in the grace of the gospel that affects every area of our lives. And while worship is more than just singing, God’s people gathering in his presence to lift their voices in song is an activity that is biblically based, historically rooted, and potentially life-changing. Thoroughly based in Scripture and filled with practical guidance, this book connects Sunday worship to the rest of our lives—helping us live as true worshipers each and every day.
