Book excerpt: Somewhere between the air-conditioned foyer and padded pews, Christianity lost its mantra: They who "live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution." --J. J. Turner * Have Christians taken sanctuary in church buildings and complained about how dark it is outside? * Is there a mass exit from the battleship where the demands are tough, to a berth on the cruise ship where pleasure reigns? * How can you know if you are spiritually asleep? * Are Christians enduring hardships or making excuses? * Is Christianity about auditing God's word--or is it about being a doer of God's word? * What are some biblical examples of God's wake-up calls? * Are Christians responsible for attaining spiritual maturity?

Download or read book Wake Up written by Rev. Marlon F. Hall and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First an expression of black urban youth, Hip Hop music continues to expand as a cultural expression of youth and, now, young adults more generally. As a cultural phenomenon, it has even become integral to the worship experience of a growing number of churches who are reaching out to these groups. This includes not just African American churches but churches of all ethnic groups. Once seen as advocating violence, Hip Hop can be the Church’s agent of salvation and praise to transform society and reach youth and young adults in greater numbers. After looking at Hip Hop’s socio-historical context including its African roots, Wake Up shows how Hip Hop has come to embody the worldview of growing numbers of youth and young adults in today’s church. The authors make the case that Hip Hop represents the angst and hope of many youth and young adults and that by examining the inherent religious themes embedded in the music, the church can help shape the culture of hip-hop by changing its own forms of preaching and worship so that it can more effectively offer a message of repentance and liberation.

Download or read book Church of Cowards written by Matt Walsh and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Would You Surrender for God? Christians in the Middle East, in much of Asia, and in Africa are still being martyred for the faith, but how many American Christians are willing to lay down their smartphones, let alone their lives, for the faith? Being a Christian in America doesn’t require much these days. Suburban megachurches are more like entertainment venues than places to worship God. The lives that American “Christians” lead aren’t much different from those of their atheist neighbors, and their knowledge of theology isn’t much better either. Matt Walsh of The Daily Wire exposes the pitiful state of Christianity in America today, lays out the stakes for us, our families, and our eternal salvation, and invites us to a faith that’s a lot less easy and comfortable—but that’s more real and actually worth something. The spiritual junk food we’re stuffing ourselves with is never going to satisfy. As St. Augustine said over a millennium ago, our hearts are restless until they rest in Him. Only God Himself can make our lives anything but ultimately meaningless and empty. And we will never get anywhere near Him if we refuse to take up our cross and follow Jesus. This rousing call to the real adventure of a living faith is a wake-up call to complacent Christians and a rallying cry for anyone dissatisfied with a lukewarm faith.

Download or read book WAKE UP You Are Not Really a Christian and Here is Why written by Dean Larson and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you have ever sat in church and said: This doesn't make sense. If what you believe isn't the truth, would you want to know it? If so, this book is for you. We are going to discuss the tough questions that many people have about God, Christianity, and the Bible. In the title of this book I make a bold claim. I state that you are not really a Christian. Did you know: Christ never said he came to die or take on your sins? Christ never taught about the resurrection? Christ never said there is original sin? That according to Christ and God, there isn't a new covenant? That according to Christ and God, there isn't vicarious atonement? That the teaching of "none righteous" contradicts the teachings of Christ and God? That the teaching of "without the shedding of blood there is no remission" contradicts the teachings of Christ and God? That the teaching of "faith counted for righteousness" contradicts the teachings of Christ and God? That the teaching of "being saved" contradicts the teachings of Christ and God? Why are the books in the New Testament deliberately out of order? Don't Lie to Me! That's the thought I had that motivated me to search for the answers. I will provide extremely detailed proof of everything I am discussing in the Evidence section of this book. A true Christian follows the teachings of Christ. I will prove to you that you may not be a true Christian because you do not follow the teachings of Christ. Furthermore, there is a high probability that you don't even know the original teachings of Christ. We are going to discuss the tough questions that many people have about God, Christianity, and the Bible.

Book excerpt: Michael Strahan spent his childhood on a military base in Europe, where community meant everything, and life, though idyllic, was different. For one, when people referenced football they meant soccer. So when Michael's father suggested he work toward a college scholarship by playing football in Texas, where tens of thousands of people show up for a weekend game, the odds were long. Yet he did, indeed, land a scholarship and from there a draft into the NFL where he scaled the league's heights, broke records, and helped his team win the Super Bowl, as a result of which he was inducted into the Hall of Fame. How? By developing "Strahan's Rules" -- a mix of mental discipline, positive thinking, and a sense of play. He also used the Rules to forge a successful post pro-ball career as cohost with Kelly Ripa on Live! -- a position for which he was considered the longshot -- and much more. In Wake Up Happy, Michael shares personal stories about how he gets and stays motivated and how readers can do the same in their quest to attain their life goals.

Book excerpt: What if fear is the new brave? That's the question that you need answered if you are living afraid. Finding courage begins with fear itself--fear of the Lord. I Choose Brave reveals a countercultural plan to help you where you are--knee-deep in fears of parenting, the future, your marriage, and a world that feels unstable.

In I Choose Brave, Katie Westenberg digs deep into Scripture and shows that finding the courage to overcome our fears must start with fear of the Lord. Hundreds of passages speak to this foundational truth, yet we have somehow relegated them to antiquity. In sharing her own compelling story of facing her worst fear, Katie serves up theological truth with relatable application. In this book, you will · discover a fresh take on an old truth that displaces fear once and for all · understand why the culture's idea of "fearlessness" is a farce · access the holy courage you were made for With this new knowledge comes tremendous freedom. Hidden in the cleft of the Rock, the One truly worthy of our fear, you will begin to understand the only path to real courage.
