Download or read book God Walk written by Mark Buchanan and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on Jesus's example of walking, bestselling author Mark Buchanan explores one of the oldest spiritual practices of our faith. What happens when we literally walk out our Christian life? We discover the joy of traveling at the speed of our soul. We often act as if faith is only about the mind. But what about our bodies? What does our physical being have to do with our spiritual life? When the Bible exhorts us to walk in the light, or walk by faith, or walk in truth, it means these things literally as much as figuratively. The Christian faith always involves walking out, as again and again we find the holy in the ordinary. "Come, follow me," Jesus said, and then he was off. The most obvious thing about Jesus's method of discipleship, in fact, is that he walked and invited others to walk with him. Jesus is always "on the way," "arriving," "leaving," "approaching," "coming upon." It's in the walking that his disciples are taught, formed, tested, empowered, and released. Part theology, part history, part field guide, God Walk explores walking as spiritual formation, walking as healing, walking as exercise, walking as prayer, walking as pilgrimage, suffering, friendship, and attentiveness. It is a book about being alongside the God who, incarnate in Jesus, turns to us as he passes by--always on foot--and says simply, "Come, follow me." With practical insight and biblical reflections told in his distinct voice, Buchanan provides specific walking exercises so you can immediately implement the practice of going "God speed." Whether you are walking around the neighborhood or hiking in the mountains, walking offers the potential to awaken your life with Christ as it revives body and soul.

Book excerpt: Walking in the Spirit is a journey into what the Bible teaches about life in the Holy Spirit.

Download or read book Walking in the Footsteps of Christ written by Joan Risch-Mayle and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-06-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul said, "We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God, but our lives as well." -(2 Thessalonians 2:8a NIV) As Paul shares, I have the desire to share my life through the teachings that come with analogies and parables. Walking in the Footsteps of Christ is an accumulation of "a gift of knowledge" laced with "a gift of wisdom." Writings placed within these pages reflect an inner dialogue between the Holy Spirit and my heart and mind--relating spiritual truths (which we might not understand) with physical truths (to which we may relate in our daily living). One such analogy that communicates a relationship between an author and a reader is as follows: A kiwi fruit matures faster when placed in a brown paper bag with an apple. Why? The apple gives off "ethylene gas," accelerating the maturity of the kiwi, while the apple remains an apple. God, through the venue of Holy Spirit, showed me that my writings originally were the catalyst for accelerating my spiritual growth (maturity). Applying spiritual truths with physical truths: The contents of this book (the bi-product of my walk) discharge "a spiritual ethylene gas" by placing two spiritual fruit-bearing beings in a one-on-one setting. Such as with the relationship between the apple and the kiwi, you, the reader, will not become like me--but may have a better understanding of what God could produce out of your own life. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example that you should follow in His steps. -(1 Peter 2:21 NIV) ***** This Book Becomes my Prayer (Walking in the Footsteps of Christ, Page 349) I pray, dear Lord, that Your readers, too, might take the time And glean some of these teachings And share with others as I have shared with them. Dear Lord, I place this book in Your Hands As my footsteps become footprints For generations to come. Through Jesus Christ, Our Lord Amen.

Download or read book Walking with Mary written by Edward Sri and published by Image. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary appears only a few times in the Bible, but those few passages come at crucial moments. Catholics believe that Mary is the ever-virgin Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven and Earth. But she also was a human being--a woman who made a journey of faith through various trials and uncertainties and endured her share of suffering. Even with her unique graces and vocation, Mary remains a woman we can relate to and from whom we have much to learn. In Walking with Mary, Edward Sri looks at the crucial passages in the Bible concerning Mary and offers insight about the Blessed Mother's faith and devotion that we can apply in our daily lives. We follow her step-by-step through the New Testament account of her life, reflecting on what the Scriptures tell us about how she responded to the dramatic events unfolding around her. “This book is the fruit of my personal journey of studying Mary through the Scriptures, from her initial calling in Nazareth to her painful experience at the cross,” writes Edward Sri “It is intended to be a highly readable, accessible work that draws on wisdom from the Catholic tradition, recent popes, and biblical scholars of a variety of perspectives and traditions. With the riches of these insights, we will ponder what her journey of faith may have been like in order to draw out spiritual lessons for our own walk with God.” He add, “It is my hope, therefore, that whether you are of a Catholic, Protestant, or other faith background, this book may help you to know, understand, and love Mary more, and that it may inspire you to walk in her footsteps as a faithful disciple of the Lord in your own pilgrimage of faith.”

Smith, pastor and author of We Need to Talk: Saying What We Need to Say Without Hurting Each Other How would you like to take a spiritual journey in the land where Jesus Christ was born, reared, educated, lived and died, and was resurrected? How would you like to travel to the place where Jesus walked on water and said, "Peace, be still"? Imagine walking where Jesus walked and fed more than five thousand men, not including women and children. Join author Major Stewart as he walks in the footsteps of Jesus: through Galilee, Bethlehem, Nazareth, Caesarea Philippi, Mount of Olives, garden of Gethsemane, and Jericho. Experience the places where Jesus performed life-altering miracles such as healing the sick, giving sight to the blind, and turning water into wine. Experience the place where Jesus Christ was beaten and ultimately crucified for the sins of humanity, as He walked the Via Dolorosa (Way of Sorrow) and then to Calvary. During a transition in his life, Major went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land that powerfully challenged and positively changed his life. Walking in His Footsteps was birthed out of the experiences he encountered while walking on the very roads that Jesus traveled. Embark on this journey in the "Land of Jesus." In the process, you will discover ways to grow closer in your walk with Jesus!

Download or read book In His Steps written by Charles Sheldon and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2013-05-17 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In His Steps is the dramatic story of a pastor and a small group of Christians who determined in their hearts to react in every situation as they thought Jesus would. Set against the hypocrisy and social upheavals of the 1890s, it provides delightful color and style, and depicts the same sordid plight of churches and Christians today. Founded upon God's Word, its focus is the verse in 1 Peter: "For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps." Because of a sudden and upsetting incident which disrupted the Sunday morning worship service of a small congregation, the world has been set aglow for Christ. Souls have been challenged to find the perfect will of God for their lives, to follow the steps of the Saviour wherever they should lead and despite persecution or crucifixion that might follow--just to know the joy of walking In His Steps.
