Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is not about never feeling pain or not going through adversity. Pain and adversity will always be around. The difference in how we overcome is in our response when it circles our life. Nevelle pursued love from one man after another until the heartbreak it brought became unbearable. The pursuit brought her to her lowest point until she had no desire to live. God was to blame. The man was to blame. Her father was to blame. She was to blame. This vicious cycle seemed to have no end. All she wanted was to love and be loved, yet to acquire it was not that simple. Nevelle had to reach deep within herself and face the truth of her past. An encounter with the Lord led her to the beginning of where the pain began. It was a pain that she had buried deep in her heart, one in which she had not known had become the filter of how she lived her life. With a new perspective of God, love, forgiveness, and repentance, Nevelle began a new journey to live and pursue godliness and wholeness.

Book excerpt: Tim Hiller was in the throes of NFL training camp striving for a prized spot on the Indianapolis Colts' roster, when six words abruptly changed his course: \"We have to let you go.\" Like Tim, we are all striving for something every minute of the day, everyday-career aspirations, social status, better parenting, friendship, love, fame, financial security, achievement, and more. In most cases, these are noble and understandable pursuits. Our time is short. Our lives are busy. We want these things now. But do they even matter? Our careers will end, our friends and family will all pass someday, and our finances can't leave this world with us. Someone will reject us. Ultimately, the world will forget our accomplishments. But what if we instead strive for the best thing possible-both in this life, and the eternal one to come? In Strive, former collegiate and NFL quarterback Tim Hiller leads you on a year-long journey, taking small steps each week on the path to making your life matter... to developing more and more into the person God designed you to be. Hiller provides daily encouragement, challenges, and resources-straight from God's word-to help each of us Strive toward a life of significance. Our lives are short. Together, let's pursue what matters.

Download or read book Life Equity written by Marsha Blackburn and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life you've led has prepared you for the life you dream of. For too long and for too many, the word leadership has had a masculine ring to it. Because women are such natural team players and consensus builders, many may simply view a strong desire to lead as, well, a bit rude. What we've failed to realize is if you define leadership as the art of getting a group of people working together effectively toward a common goal?then women bring some mighty powerful leadership skills to the table. So why don't we jump in? We long to dive into the challenges and make a difference, but holding us back are questions and self doubt: Do I have anything left to offer after my kids are grown? What if I fall on my face? Will anyone recognize what I have to offer? Do I have what it takes to make a real difference? How do I break into, or get around, the good ol' boy network? Whether you're a new college graduate, an empty nester, a divorceé starting life on your own (again), or a discontented cubical worker, Congressman Marsha Blackburn says you are an amazing, talented woman: Here is exciting news: there is a key truth that will unlock extraordinary possibilities for you. The simple but powerful truth is that your accumulated skills go with you. The ordinary, everyday tasks you have been performing are actually the foundation for getting you where you want to go. In even the most unglamorous roles, you have built real leadership ability that has prepared you for bigger things. Today, more than ever, the world needs leaders for jobs big and small, and women have been training for these tasks their whole lives. They can make a difference in their own lives and in our culture?and you can too.

Because only you can discover how the book ends and the rest of your life begins… Visit the Life Development Plan website as mentioned in the book: http://ldp.lifechurch.tv/jsp/main.jsp Chazown A Different Way to See Your Life You’re invited on a most unusual odyssey—to find, name, and live out your Chazown. It’s a journey you’ll never forget because it’s impossible to return unchanged. Practical, surprising, visually fresh, and biblically sound, the Chazown experience helps you clearly understand what you’ve always suspected: You’re not an accident. You have been created and put on earth for a unique and important purpose…a Chazown . And God intends for you to live it with passion and fulfillment for His glory. But where to start your search? As Craig Groeschel will show, your own Chazown is hiding just under the surface of your life in three often overlooked areas: your core values, your spiritual gifts, and your past experiences. Once you discover your personal Chazown , you’ll turn it into a highly motivating credo—complete with short-term goals, action steps, and an accountability network to make your big dream a reality. Pursue your Chazown and simultaneously improve five critical aspects of your life. These “small ‘c’ chazowns ” are your relationship with God, your relationships with people, your finances, your health and fitness, and your work life. Are you living someone else’s dream for your life, or no dream at all? Get ready for Chazown. Story Behind the Book Craig Groeschel started LifeChurch.tv, now attended by more than twelve thousand people each weekend on five different campuses, in the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, area in 1996. From that point on, he has been empowered by the knowledge that he is following God’s chazown (vision) for his life. Craig’s cutting-edge teaching style—including honest, uncomfortable teaching of God’s truth and ubiquitous use of in-your-face video and other imagery—has challenged and changed thousands of lives. His messages are simulcast live to each of the church’s campuses, and his ministry continues to explode. This book stems from a two-message series that he gave; its premise is the bedrock for all teaching and ministry at LifeChurch.tv.

Download or read book Pursue Godliness written by Steve Hankins and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-11-19 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his first letter to Timothy, the pastor of the church at Ephesus and his protégé in Christian life and ministy, the Apostle Paul exhorted him, “Discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness” (1 Tim. 4-7). Just two chapters later, the Apostle returned to this idea, encouraging Timothy to flee all sin and to “pursue ... godliness” (1 Tim. 6:11). Godliness is a recurring theme in Paul’s epistle, urged especially upon men training to become leaders of the church as pastors and evangelists. But the pursuit of godliness is also commanded of all others who hunger and thirst to follow Jesus as His disciple. Attaining godliness looms large in the New Testament as the primary outworking of the greatest command in the Word of God, spoken by Christ himself: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul and with all your mind” (Matt 22:37). In Pursue Godliness: A Servant’s First Priority, the author seeks to answer the question, “What does the Bible teach about how a Christian can make major strides forward in his growth in godliness?” Letting Scripture speak for itself through over 1,450 passages, the meaning, priorities, primary qualities, and practices for significant progress in godliness are unfolded in this comprehensive introduction to the subject. While a detailed, in-depth treatment of this Scriptural topic, it is written in clear, easy-to-understand language, not requiring a theologian’s training or vocabulary to understand. Read and grow. This is a book written for your transformation, for His glory!

Book excerpt: In this booklet taken from Life-study of Philippians, Witness Lee focuses on two words found in Philippians 3:14: goal and prize. The apostle Paul speaks of the goal and the prize, but what is the goal and what is the prize? Many would answer that both the goal and the prize are Christ.
