Download or read book Glorious Weakness written by Alia Joy and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a girl, Alia Joy came face to face with weakness, poverty, and loss in ways that made her doubt God was good. There were times when it felt as if God had abandoned her. What she didn't realize then was that God was always there, calling her to abandon herself. In this deeply personal exploration of what it means to be "poor in spirit," Joy challenges our cultural proclivity to "pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps." She calls on readers to embrace true vulnerability and authenticity with God and with one another, showing how weakness does not disqualify us from inclusion in the kingdom of God--instead, it is our very invitation to enter in. Anyone who has struggled with feeling inadequate, disillusioned, or just too broken will find hope. This message is an antidote to despair, helping readers reclaim the ways God is good, even when life is anything but.

Download or read book Spiritual Suicide written by Dr. George Wilson Khaukha and published by PartridgeIndia. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost everybody has had this experience in life. This is to do with figuring out the map instructions somebody has given you to find a place you have never been to before. If you form a different mental map image in your mind from the instructor's you will surely get lost. It is critical that you and the instructor hold the same mental image of the map instructions. This treatise attempts to ensure that we have the same mental image of God's call for our salvation as what God Himself had and still has on His mind. Thus we will never have doubts about our spiritual journey. We can very clearly grade ourselves as "PASS" or "FAIL" without needing a famous preacher's consolation, enlightenment or switching between denominations. This is a very short treatise to capture the attention of everybody during this modern high paced way of survival and challenge the reader to audit himself/herself whether he/she is positively headed for God's call and living according to His will. After grasping the message in this treatise the reader will no longer have doubts about his/her status in relationship with God, using the self-audit spiritual checklist provided at the end of this treatise. I keep having this feeling that the enemy has camouflaged interpretations of God's word to appease the believers that they are on the right track when actually they are headed for destruction.

Download or read book How to Live Through a Bad Day written by Jack W. Hayford and published by Thomas Nelson Publishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each of us has experienced bad days, and these bad days are often compounded by our focus on the "badness" of the situation. But Dr. Jack Hayford contends that," in such times the Lord calls us to hear His voice." And so, beginning with seven phrases uttered by Jesus on the cross, he constructs the model for godly behavior while enduring hardship. Insights include: Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. To forgive those seeking to injure you is to remove yourself from their control. My God, my God, why have you forsaken Me? We can ask God the hard questions. Into Your hands I commit My spirit. Surrender your suffering to God and let go. How to Live Through a Bad Day is ideal for anyone who has experienced stress, pain, weariness, or an assault of character. Jack Hayford speaks the words of Jesus -- the words of life that sustain and encourage us to live through our worst days.
Download or read book True Worshipers written by Bob Kauflin and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone worships. But Jesus tells us that God is seeking a particular kind of worshiper. In True Worshipers, a seasoned pastor and musician guides readers toward a more engaging, transformative, and biblically faithful understanding of the worship God is seeking. True worship is an activity rooted in the grace of the gospel that affects every area of our lives. And while worship is more than just singing, God’s people gathering in his presence to lift their voices in song is an activity that is biblically based, historically rooted, and potentially life-changing. Thoroughly based in Scripture and filled with practical guidance, this book connects Sunday worship to the rest of our lives—helping us live as true worshipers each and every day.
Download or read book The Gospel According to Job written by Mike Mason and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2002-10-03 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone who has suffered knows that there is no such thing as "getting a grip on oneself" or "pulling oneself up by the bootstraps. The only bootstrap in the Christian life is the Cross," says Mason. "Sometimes laying hold of the cross can be comforting, but other times it is like picking up a snake." Job knew this firsthand. From him we learn that there are no easy answers to suffering. That the mark of true faith is not happiness, but rather, having one's deepest passions be engaged by the enormity of God. And through Job we learn the secret of the gospel: that "mercy is the permission to be human." The Lord never gave Job an explanation for all he had been through. His only answer was Himself. But as Job discovered, that was enough. The Gospel According to Job sensitively brings the reader to this realization, using a devotional commentary format that reminds them that it's all right to doubt, to be confused, to wonder–in short, to be completely human. But what will heal us and help us endure is a direct, transforming encounter with the living God.

Download or read book Little Steps written by James Ream Adams and published by Ozark Mountain Publishing. This book was released on 2020-04-27 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All too often survivors of a loved one’s suicide are left behind, struggling with a loss that fosters stigma, shame, blame, guilt and abandonment. For the survivor, these struggles last long after the funeral is over and friends and relatives have returned to their daily lives. Healing the loss after the suicide of a love one is about restarting your life with nothing firm to stand on. Little Steps is the guided process James Adams recorded in his journal documenting before, during and after his son committed suicide. It starts with conversations where voices of wisdom are guiding him along a spiritual path of discovery, then, as he was confronted with the trauma of his loss, those conversations shifted focus towards coping with and understanding the grief process as it unfolded. Feeling left behind and somehow responsible, James continued to write his guided conversations as he dealt with the questions of: Why did he do this? I should have… I could have… if only I had known or done… what did I do wrong? These real time journaled conversations capture in a loving, spiritual, and supportive way all the drama, trauma, and recovery as they occurred making Little Steps a powerful documentary of healing from a traumatic loss.
