Download or read book On the Via Dolorosa with Christ written by Paul Ciholas and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After two millennia, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ remain the foundation of Christian faith. No matter how often the story of Easter is told and how much it is explained, we are awed by the inscrutability of God's incarnation in Christ and find ourselves caught up in an event that transcends our understanding and surrounds us in a sea of divine love that belongs to the realm of mystery. These forty mediations invite the reader to reflect on Christ's walk on the Via Dolorosa, the path of suffering that a bruised and exhausted Jesus had to trudge from the place of his condemnation to the site of his crucifixion. It is a sobering journey. It is also a holy path toward God. With the author the reader can walk from sacred place to sacred place and feel the transforming power of the presence of Christ. In this pilgrimage we encounter a tormented Judas, a bewildered peter, a transformed Thomas, and two startled disciples on the road to Emmaus. The passion story leads believers and readers through the tragic disintegration of moral and spiritual claims to a fresh reaffirmation of the promise of transfiguration and resurrection.

Download or read book Waiting on God written by Wayne Stiles and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have all experienced a disconnect between God's promises to us and our everyday reality. We wait, without understanding why. We want to know God's plan so that we can trust it--but God so often hides his plan so that we will trust him. What can we do in the meantime as we are waiting for an answer, a change, or a miracle? With deep compassion, Wayne Stiles helps readers understand why God makes them wait. Unpacking the Old Testament story of Joseph, Stiles shows readers how to find comfort and opportunity in the time between God's promises and his answers, revealing the perspective-altering truth that sometimes when we think we are waiting on God, he is actually waiting on us. Anyone who has felt a disconnect between God's promises and their reality, who doesn't know what God wants them to do next, or who struggles with the brokenness of their world will find in Wayne Stiles a wise and trustworthy guide to finding peace in the pauses.

Download or read book The Call of Jerusalem written by Tan Nget Hong and published by 文桥传播中心. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading ‘The Call of Jerusalem’ from three different perspectives It's been almost 20 years since I first read Prof. Tan Nget Hong's first edition of ‘The Call of Jerusalem’. At that time, I did not know Prof. Tan personally nor had I heard about him. However, after reading this book, I wanted to make a phone call to him to express my appreciation of the book. Unfortunately, the phone call did not get through at that time. Over the past decade or so, Prof. Tan and I have become close friends and partners in the ministry of Caring and Comforting God's chosen people. On 27 and 28 October 2015, both of us were workshop speakers at the "Caring for God's Chosen People" Mandarin-speaking seminar held in Kuala Lumpur. Unexpectedly, the attendees filled the main Worship Hall of Kuala Lumpur Hokkien Methodist Church. We believed that this was the first time that a public meeting on the theme of “Caring for God’s Chosen People” was held in Malaysia. It is indeed a great honor that we can contribute to promoting the ministry of “Caring for God’s Chosen People” among the Malaysian Chinese churches. To this day, we still remember vividly the feeling of excitement in our hearts throughout the seminar, and we are indeed grateful to the Lord that we could be used by Him in this ministry. I am very glad to learn that Prof Tan is publishing an updated e-version of this book, and believe sincerely that reading this book will bring many benefits to the readers! Since his first visit to the Holy Land in 2000, Prof. Tan has made many trips to the Holy Land in the past 20 years. As a free independent traveler, he has opportunity to make meaningful visits to most biblically related places in the Holy Land, and this book is the product of his observations, research and meditations during his visits to the Holy Land over the past 20 years. Although today there are already many Chinese books about the Holy Land, this book still has its own unique features and deserves to be carefully read by believers. First of all, this book can be regarded as a very comprehensive handbook for the travelers to the Holy Land, and it serves both as a reference and a travel guide for those who are visiting the Holy Land. The destinations described in this book cover almost every Christian ‘must-visit’ site in the Holy Land. The author's explanation of each biblical site is very detailed, including the historical, geographical and cultural aspects, as well as current background. In addition, the author provides many practical guidance and suggestions for the reader based on his own rich personal experiences. The tips provided can also save first-time visitors to the Holy Land from many unnecessary hassles, including the trap of being deceived by unscrupulous ‘tour-guides’. This book can also be read as a devotional. Readers not only read about the author’s narratives of the scene and background of the biblical sites, but also his pastoral teachings, exhortations and relevant prayers. For as an elder of the church, Prof. Tan always shares with readers the relevant biblical facts and teaching, God’s will and the love of Christ. At almost every biblical site, the author quotes appropriate Scripture to help the reader connect with the teaching of the Bible. Believers who visit the Holy Land with this book in hand will feel that they not only enjoy the benefit of a personal guide to explain the significance and background of the biblical sites, but also receiving sound teachings of the Bible by an Elder with spiritual understanding. The last portion of the book reveals the author’s deep concern for the salvation of God’s chosen people as he exhorts believers to share God’s desire for the redemption of the Jews. May the apostle Paul's prayer become the prayer of every believers: "Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved." (Rom 10:1). This is also the burden that I share with the author. Our life mission is to make people know Christ and fulfill the Great Commission, through our speaking or writing, and in this, the Jews should have the priority, because ‘salvation is from the Jews’, as Paul says in Romans: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.” (Rom 1:16). Therefore, this book can be read from three different perspectives: 1. As a Holy Land travel guidebook for Christian travelers 2. As a devotional aid for Christian spiritual discipline 3. As an introduction to Missions to the Jews I pray that the Lord may use this book as a blessing for every reader.
Download or read book The Way of Abundance written by Ann Voskamp and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do you do when you wake up and feel like you're not enough for your life? Or when you look out the kitchen window as dusk falls and wonder how do you live when life keeps breaking your heart? As Ann Voskamp writes, “great grief isn't meant to fit inside your body. It's why your heart breaks.” And each of us holds enough brokenness to overflow—to be given as the greatest story of our lives. In sixty vulnerably soulful stories, The Way of Abundance moves from self-weary brokenness to Christ-focused givenness. Drawing from the critically acclaimed, New York Times bestseller The Broken Way and Ann's online essays, this devotional dares us to embrace brokenness as a gift that moves us to givenness as a way to draw closer to the heart of God. Christ Himself broke like bread, giving Himself to us so we might have a lifelong communion with Him. Could it be that our brokenness is also a gift to the world? This gentle but exquisitely profound book does nothing less than take you on an intimate journey of the soul. As Ann writes, "The wound in His side proves that Jesus is always on the side of the suffering, the wounded, the busted, the broken." Discover how surrendering in unexpected ways is the first step toward receiving what you long for. Discover the good news that your beauty is not in your strength but in your fragility. Discover why your healing shines radiant through your wounds—and how only in brokenness will you ever be whole—and find the way to the abundance you were meant for.

Download or read book Life As It Happens Devotional written by Crawford G. Clark and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2024-02-22 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As all of us know, life has its ups and downs. In many ways life truly is a rollercoaster. A rollercoaster goes up, comes down, goes around curves, enters the dark at times, twists, and in some cases, goes backwards. I think that using a rollercoaster is a great example that can describe life perfectly. How is one able to navigate all the ups and downs, twists, and turns, as well as the darkness that is experienced on occasions? The key, I believe, is a faith in a living God. This living God allows Himself to be known through the person of Jesus Christ. This devotional is slightly different than most devotionals. The devotionals contained in this volume were written over a period of time and as the current events were taking place. As you will experience, there are numerous events mentioned that were part of our lives, some that may be distant to you and some that occurred daily that you may have been somewhat close. Since I am a sports junkie, you will find several references in this devotional pertaining to sporting events that have taken place. Most of the sporting events refer to the teams in Philadelphia. Each devotion is two pages in length and is written in a way to help you think about your relationship with God. It is my prayer that after completing the reading of this devotional you will find yourself closer to God and understand who He is clearer.
