Book excerpt: Devotions for a vacation that’s refreshing in every way. Vacations often give us an opportunity to rest and reflect. However, when our normal routines and habits are suspended, it can be hard to spend time with God. These 30 devotions have been specifically designed to help you to rest in the Lord’s goodness and glory during your time away so that you can return home feeling refreshed spiritually as well as physically. Author John Hindley, who also wrote Serving without Sinking, says this: “I want to help you find rest, peace, joy, hope, and renewed zeal. We go away to be refreshed. Christ is the one who sets his Spirit in our hearts to cause streams of living water to well up within us and flow from us. Sometimes we rest away from Jesus, but how much better to rest with and in him? He is where our true refreshment is found.” You can pick and choose which devotions to read depending on the type of vacation you are on (for example, city break or beach) and there are optional family activities and questions linked to each devotion giving other family members an opportunity to reflect alongside you.

Download or read book Refresh written by Blake McKinney and published by Nurturing Faith Incorporated. This book was released on 2013-06-12 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The words in this book flow from a conviction that God intends for your faith to intersect with your everyday life. Many people hang out with God for an hour on Sunday and then ignore him for the rest of the week. Or they have a ten-minute "quiet time" in the morning, and then leave God behind and get on with the business of the real world. But the real world is the only place in which you can live out your faith in God. He wants you to pay attention to him not only while you sing on Sunday, but all week long while you wash dishes or negotiate contracts or take algebra tests or sit in traffic or whatever else you do. He wants to go with you to the office, the classroom, the coffee shop, the soccer field, and every other stop on your route each day. Both your faith and your everyday life will be enriched when they experience more regular contact with each other. My hope is that these devotions will help to facilitate that contact. This book is yours now, and you can use it however you desire. But I would suggest that you read one of the readings each weekday, in the middle of the day, in the middle of your normal activities. Let it be a divine interruption that helps you to pay attention to him right in the midst of the real world. Let it refresh you and remind you that God is God and he is with you and he can make an impact on the way you live the rest of your day. May God use this book to make you more impressed with him, and more willing to let him work in you and through you each day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents often feel at a loss with popular culture and how it fits in with their families. They want to love their children well, but it can be overwhelming to navigate the murky waters of television, movies, games, and more that their kids are exposed to every day. Popular culture doesn’t have to be a burden. The Pop Culture Parent equips mothers, fathers, and guardians to build relationships with their children by entering into their popular culture–informed worlds, understanding them biblically, and passing on wisdom. This resource by authors Ted Turnau, E. Stephen Burnett, and Jared Moore, provides Scripture-based, practical help for parents to enjoy the messy gift of popular culture with their kids. By engaging with their children’s interests, parents can explore culture while teaching their children to become missionaries in a post-Christian world. By providing realistic yet biblical encouragement for parents, the coauthors guide readers to engage with popular culture through a gospel lens, helping them teach their kids to understand and answer the challenges raised by popular culture. The Pop Culture Parent helps the next generation of evangelicals move beyond a posture of cultural ignorance to one of cultural engagement, building grace-oriented disciples and cultural missionaries.

Download or read book Hit Refresh written by Satya Nadella and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “At the core, Hit Refresh, is about us humans and the unique quality we call empathy, which will become ever more valuable in a world where the torrent of technology will disrupt the status quo like never before.” – Satya Nadella from Hit Refresh “Satya has charted a course for making the most of the opportunities created by technology while also facing up to the hard questions.” – Bill Gates from the Foreword of Hit Refresh The New York Times bestseller Hit Refresh is about individual change, about the transformation happening inside of Microsoft and the technology that will soon impact all of our lives—the arrival of the most exciting and disruptive wave of technology humankind has experienced: artificial intelligence, mixed reality, and quantum computing. It’s about how people, organizations, and societies can and must transform and “hit refresh” in their persistent quest for new energy, new ideas, and continued relevance and renewal. Microsoft’s CEO tells the inside story of the company’s continuing transformation, tracing his own personal journey from a childhood in India to leading some of the most significant technological changes in the digital era. Satya Nadella explores a fascinating childhood before immigrating to the U.S. and how he learned to lead along the way. He then shares his meditations as a sitting CEO—one who is mostly unknown following the brainy Bill Gates and energetic Steve Ballmer. He tells the inside story of how a company rediscovered its soul—transforming everything from culture to their fiercely competitive landscape and industry partnerships. As much a humanist as engineer and executive, Nadella concludes with his vision for the coming wave of technology and by exploring the potential impact to society and delivering call to action for world leaders. “Ideas excite me,” Nadella explains. “Empathy grounds and centers me.” Hit Refresh is a set of reflections, meditations, and recommendations presented as algorithms from a principled, deliberative leader searching for improvement—for himself, for a storied company, and for society.
