Book excerpt: If you're feeling lost, disconnected, or longing for something more, join bestselling authors John Eldredge and Brent Curtis as they explore the greatest love of our lives: our faith. The Sacred Romance invites us to find the peace and purpose we crave by slowing down, asking questions, and deepening our relationship with God. Eldredge and Curtis believe that modern Christians have lost touch with our hearts. We've left that essential part of ourselves behind in the pursuit of efficiency, success, and the busyness of our lives. The Sacred Romance will guide you through a journey to getting to know yourself and your creator even better, asking you: What is this restlessness and emptiness I feel, sometimes after years into my Christian journey? How will my spiritual life touch the rest of my life? What is it that is set so deeply in my heart, that simply will not leave me alone? When did I stop listening to God’s leading? The Sacred Romance is a journey of the heart. It is a journey full of intimacy, adventure, and beauty, that will guide you to your fondest memories, your greatest loves, your noblest achievements, and even your deepest hurts--but the reward is worth the risk.

Download or read book Liberating Ministry from the Success Syndrome written by R. Kent Hughes and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2008-01-07 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year thousands of God's servants leave the ministry convinced they are failures. Years ago, in the midst of a crisis of faith, Kent Hughes almost became one of them. But instead he and his wife Barbara turned to God's Word, determined to learn what God had to say about success and to evaluate their ministry from a biblical point of view. This book describes their journey and their liberation from the "success syndrome"-the misguided belief that success in ministry means increased numbers. In today's world it is easy to be seduced by the secular thinking that places a number on everything. But the authors teach that true success in ministry lies not in numbers but in several key areas: faithfulness, serving, loving, believing, prayer, holiness, and a Christlike attitude. Their thoughts will encourage readers who grapple with feelings of failure and lead them to a deeper, fuller understanding of success in Christian ministry. This book was originally published by Tyndale in 1987 and includes a new preface.

Download or read book Timeless Illustrations for Preaching and Teaching written by Donald Barnhouse and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If we look through a piece of red glass, everything is red; through blue glass everything is blue; through yellow glass, everything is yellow, and so on. "The glorious truth is that when we believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as our Saviour, God looks at us through the Lord Jesus Christ. He sees us in all the white holiness of His Son. That is the great New Testament doctrine of the imputation of our sin to the account of Christ and His righteousness to our account." Preachers and Bible teachers prize good illustrations. A great story is often the clearest and most memorable way for listeners to grasp the truth of God's Word. This timeless collection brings together hundreds of penetrating illustrations and pithy anecdotes from one of the twentieth century's evangelical master expositors, Donald Grey Barnhouse. With typical warmth and humor, Barnhouse illuminates all of Scripture's key topics: God, Christ, the tempter and temptation, sin, salvation, the Bible, the church, Christian life and growth, forgiveness, witnessing, thanksgiving, Christian families, and much more. This two-in-one collection was previously published as "Illustrating Great Themes of Scripture" and "Let Me Illustrate: 400 Stories, Anecdotes, and Illustrations."
