Download or read book Cherished with Love from Above written by Danny Frigulti and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-28 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book expands on the definition of "Cherish" in each chapter and how God has always planned to cherish people all over the world. The contents reveal a pattern of "Love from Above" for all humanity with the Bible as the primary historical and spiritual reference. The equality of man and woman, being created in the spiritual image of God for fellowship with Him (Genesis 1:26), lays a foundation of understanding that His love and appreciation are the same for all people. Many women are presented in multiple chapters to show the impact they had on changing global history for God's glory. A chapter on love (1 Corinthians 13) emphasizes the importance for developing holy love for each other. Also, Jesus' teaching on what it means to be a "Good Samaritan" who cherishes everyone is detailed. The universal impact of Christ's virgin birth and His physical resurrection are described in prophetic details. Such information has caused millions, perhaps billions, to worship and cherish the LORD for thousands of years. A chapter on the joy of cherishing with prayer and praise is filled with examples. Two chapters from Song of Songs reveal intimate love Scriptures shared between a husband and wife. These two chapters are a must to read between husbands and wives for love and romance enhancement. The final chapter shows how our sins are forgiven and how we can be assured of being "cherished and loved" for eternity in Heaven when we pass away.
Download or read book Cherish written by Gary Thomas and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gary Thomas, pastor and bestselling author of Sacred Marriage, believes that one simple word can bring hope, light, and life into any marriage: Cherish. Most marriages survive by gritting teeth and holding on. But what if surviving marriage wasn't the goal? What if we aimed to thrive instead? In Cherish, Thomas teaches us that although there are a countless number of marriages consisting of two people just going through the motions, there are real ways this pattern can be reversed: when husbands and wives learn to cherish one another in their everyday actions and words. The way we treat something acknowledges whether we cherish it or hold it with indifference or contempt. To truly cherish something is to go out of our way to show it off, protect it, and honor it. We want others to see and recognize and affirm the value that we see. Thomas reminds us that in a world desperate for marriage redemption, the act of cherishing is needed now more than ever. Cherishing your spouse will elevate your marriage relationally, emotionally, spiritually, and even physically. You will set different goals for your relationship, and you'll see your marriage with fresh eyes. Through personal stories, real-world examples, and timeless biblical truths, Thomas shares the tools you need to turn your marriage around, including: Using your mind to change your heart Sacrificing for your spouse Praying with intentionality Prioritizing your life partner Through the biblical act of cherishing, we can empower our spouses to become who they are called by God to be, and in the process to become more of who we are called to be, creating a marriage that feels more precious, more connected, and more satisfying. If you're ready to revolutionize your relationship, it's time to learn how to truly Cherish it.

Book excerpt: Sacred Pathways reveals nine distinct spiritual temperaments--and their strengths, weaknesses, and tendencies--to help you improve your spiritual life and deepen your personal walk with God. It's time to strip away the frustration of a one-size-fits-all spirituality and discover a path of worship that frees you to be you. Experienced spiritual directors, pastors, and church leaders recognize that all of us engage with God differently, and it's about time we do too. In this updated and expanded edition of Sacred Pathways, Gary Thomas details nine spiritual temperaments and--like the Enneagram and other tools do with personality--encourages you to investigate the ways you most naturally express yourself in your relationship with God. He encourages you to dig into the traits, strengths, and pitfalls in your devotional approach so you can eliminate the barriers that keep you locked into rigid methods of worship and praise. Plus, as you begin to identify and understand your own temperament, you'll soon learn about the temperaments that aren't necessarily "you" but that may help you understand the spiritual tendencies of friends, family, and others around you. Whatever temperament or blend of temperaments best describes you, rest assured it's not by accident. It's by the design of a Creator who knew what he was doing when he made you according to his own unique intentions. If your spiritual walk is not what you'd like it to be, you can change that, starting here. Sacred Pathways will show you the route you were made to travel, marked by growth and filled with the riches of a close walk with God. A Sacred Pathways video Bible study is also available for group or individual use, sold separately.
