Download or read book Chasing Love written by Sean McDowell and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The music we listen to, the movies we watch—they're all telling us to keep chasing love, and that we'll finally be happy when we find it. But is love really all we need? The love that the world tells us to pursue is all about self, about following your heart’s desires. But what is the Christian worldview on love? When we follow Jesus, we realize that he invites us to reorient the focus of our lives, so instead of chasing love primarily for our own happiness, we are first and foremost to give love—to God and to others. In Chasing Love, Sean McDowell will invite readers into Jesus’ radical, upside-down approach to love, and in doing so, he’ll answer some of the toughest questions we’re asking about love today: How does Jesus speak to singleness? What does the gospel say about LGBTQ issues? Can sexual sin truly be forgiven? What if I’m not happy in my marriage?

Download or read book Why I Didn t Rebel written by Rebecca Gregoire Lindenbach and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique combination of personal history, interviews, and social science, a young millennial shares surprising reasons that youthful rebellion isn’t inevitable and points the way for raising healthy, grounded children who love God. Teen rebellion is seen as a cultural norm, but Rebecca Gregoire Lindenbach begs to differ. In Why I Didn’t Rebel--based on a viral blog post that has been read by more than 750,000 people--Lindenbach shows how rebellion is neither unavoidable nor completely understood. Based on interviews with her peers and combining the latest research in psychology and social science with stories from her own life, she gives parents a new paradigm for raising kids who don’t go off the rails. Rather than provide step-by-step instructions on how to construct the perfect family, Lindenbach tells her own story and the stories of others as examples of what went right, inviting readers to think differently about parenting. Addressing hot-button issues such as courtship, the purity movement, and spanking--and revealing how some widely-held beliefs in the Christian community may not actually help children--Why I Didn’t Rebel provides an utterly unique, eye-opening vision for raising kids who follow God rather than the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You are about to read one of the most important books in your life. This is not a "how to" book. It is a "how to be" book. It is about relationships-good relationships. People search for happiness and do not find it because happiness cannot be found. Happiness is acquired through great attitude and enduring relationships. Sex Talk for Teens is about sex and your relationship to sex. It is about your attitude toward yourself and toward others. More importantly, sex was created and promoted by God. Sex is the absolute perfection of quality human relationships. It was set in the most perfect relationship-marriage. It is surrounded by the greatest level of love, devotion, and commitment. Its joys and pleasures go way beyond the physical. It is the apex of human togetherness. Great relationships are built upon great attitudes. If you are content to have a poor marriage, have poor sex. If you want a great marriage, have great sex. If you want an outstanding marriage, have outstanding sex. This is the message from the Bible, and it is promoted in Sex Talk for Teens.
