"Prayers to Move Your Mountains" is a new intercessory prayer
handbook for Charismatic and Pentecostal Christians. Like classic
books of prayer that have helped believers in their prayer lives
over the years, this book emphasizes not only prayers for self, but
others, too. Each prayer is woven together with scripture verses
and with notes referring to specific biblical texts. Types of
prayers include prayers that worship and glorify the Lord, praying
to enter God's presence, praying for revival, praying for others,
praying for forgiveness and power over sin, praying for personal
needs, and praying for the coming of the Kingdom of God.

The islands of the Outer Hebrides are home to some of the most
remote and spectacular scenery in the world. They host an
astonishing range of mysterious structures - stone circles, beehive
dwellings, holy wells and 'temples' from the Celtic era. Over a
twelve-day pilgrimage, often in appalling conditions, Alastair
McIntosh returns to the islands of his childhood and explores the
meaning of these places. Traversing moors and mountains, struggling
through torrential rivers, he walks from the most southerly tip of
Harris to the northerly Butt of Lewis. The book is a walk through
space and time, across a physical landscape and into a spiritual
one. As he battled with his own ability to endure some of the
toughest terrain in Britain, he met with the healing power of the
land and its communities. This is a moving book, a powerful
reflection not simply of this extraordinary place and its people
met along the way, but of imaginative hope for humankind.
Based in the riches of Christian worship and tradition, this brief,
eloquently written introduction to Christian thinking and worldview
helps readers put back together again faith and reason, truth and
beauty, and the fragmented academic disciplines. By reclaiming the
classic liberal arts and viewing disciplines such as science and
mathematics through a poetic lens, the author explains that unity
is present within diversity. Now repackaged with a new foreword by
Ken Myers, this book will continue to benefit parents,
homeschoolers, lifelong learners, Christian students, and readers
interested in the history of ideas.
