Does God really exist and do divine miracles really happen? At a
time when many are searching for truth and questioning whether
there really is a God, Burnt Stone provides an inspirational
account of several divine encounters personally experienced by the
author Virginia Douglas (Howe). In part one of this book Virginia
seeks to explain sound Biblical truths about the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit, together with powerful testimonies of her own
personal experiences with the Lord. In part two she shares her own
personal life story in a way that is both candid and compelling.
She manages to demonstrate genuine gratitude and a healthy dose of
humour despite all that she has been through. Burnt Stone
communicates a very timely message that no matter what setbacks you
experience in life, it is possible to overcome them all by trusting
in the Lord and believing in His Word. It provides clear evidence
that God still heals and delivers today and that He remains the
same yesterday, today and forever. Virginia Douglas (Howe) is an
anointed woman of God, a prayer warrior, an intercessor and a
teacher who serves as an appointed elder in her local church. Born
in Jamaica in the 1940s, she has experienced numerous personal
challenges throughout her life, almost losing her life on several
occasions. Since accepting Christ in the late 1980s, she is now
dedicated to serving God and sharing her personal testimony to
inspire others to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Confessions of an Adulterous Christian Woman offers a rare and
honest look at the destructive descent into adultery and reveals
the redeeming power of God's grace and His ability to restore a
ruined life. Author Lyndell Hetrick Holtz was a pastor's wife,
Bible study leader, and retreat speaker who never believed she
would commit adultery. She thought her involvement with ministry
gave her extra protection from the temptation to have an affair.
But, in her forties, her life began to crumble, and suddenly
adultery seemed to be the solution for an unhappy life and
marriage. With emotion and conviction, Lyndell reflects on the
disillusionment and faulty beliefs that led to destructive
decisions. She tells of the heartache and pain she experienced when
her affair was discovered and the resulting consequences, including
the loss of her 25 year marriage, her beautiful home, her witness
in the community, her friends, and the respect of her four adult
children. It seemed as if her life was over and her relationship
with Christ forever ruined. But it was here, broken and sprawled in
the dust of shame and defeat, where Lyndell encountered love unlike
any she had ever known. With worship and humility, she shares how
God lovingly embraced her shattered life and began to redeem,
restore, and rebuild it in miraculous ways. Confessions of an
Adulterous Christian Woman gives women a first-hand look at the
destruction of adultery and provides the awareness needed to avoid
assuming that Christian women are immune to adultery's snare. This
powerful story examines the devastating effects of adultery, but
more importantly, reveals a God who continues to write His story of
redemption, restoration, and reconciliation on the broken lives of
humanity, taking us, from utter despair to undying devotion to Him
and the unconditional, healing love He gives.

fortified and ready to conquer every day as you gain daily
encouragement from Marialuz. As women, we're used to digging and
drinking from our own cisterns; we are tempted to taste life on our
own before we try His way. it is only when we realise how fragile
we are, and how insurmountable and lonely the walk without Christ
is, that we start to express an interest in trying God's way. God
has revealed to me the secret of a joyous life; the secret is in
leaving our own ways behind and embracing His way. In this first
volume we have looked at the lessons God taught me, like learning
to love each other despite our differences.
A delightful call to a vibrant spirituality that celebrates the
everyday elements of our physical lives, reminding us that our

The faith of Jesus was once considered a distinctive way of
life, rather than a complex theological system. Seeking to recover
such a model, Pilgrim Heart re-imagines discipleship as a way of
life guided by a set of simple daily practices known to the
earliest disciples and the saints through the ages. Proven to
transform lives for two thousand years, these practices include
friendship, Sabbath rest, hospitality, confession, forgiveness, and
storytellingall part of an in-the-world spirituality, one that
embraces the God-given embodied human experience.
This is more than a book it is a blueprint of what God is saying
during this hour. Bill Vincent is an anointed Prophetic writer that
releases powerful fresh revelation in this book. In THE PROTOTYPE
CHURCH you will be able to see into God s heart of a new type of
Church coming forth. The body of believers not caught up in this
new move is against it, criticizing it as dangerous phenomena and
preaching dire warnings about control, manipulation, and mental ill
health. Any one whom is a critic is criticizing the Holy Spirit in
this move. It is easy to speak against something you don t fully
understand. Listen you need to be open to what God wants to do. You
have never seen such a level of power, grace, and holiness of God
all at one time. The church is outgrowing itself month by month.
Are you ready for miracles as commonplace; the amazing and
incredible presence of God to be everywhere. The team that you are
part of, which is caught up in the epicenter of all this activity,
is the most profound experience that you have ever encountered. Of
course, there are problems problems that often are huge and
time-consuming. However, as you pray for wisdom, the anointing to
move forward is so great that godly insight seems to spring into
your conscious mind with ease. During the moving forward to
becoming a prototype Church you will find oppositions. Every day
brings a pressure cocktail of more people, more needs, greater
opposition, further demonic attacks, fresh misunderstandings,
calculated misinterpretations, added responsibilities,
supplementary clerical problems to overcome, and extra requirements
for advice, leadership, and ministry. Everything is strained to the
limit of personal and physical ability. One thing that will surely
cause a quicker finished Church is Revival. Revival seems to be
concerned with endurance and stamina as much as it is preoccupied
with anointing and empowerment. You are in the midst of constant
attack and blessing; of tiredness, pressure, and opposition; of
trying to keep everything going smoothly so that more people can be
touched and reached; of not losing people to poor organization and
mismanagement. You do not want this move to blow through society,
touching thousands of lives, but not see church built at the end of
it. Indeed, it shows no signs of tapering off! Are you getting
excited about a new move of God? The need to develop leaders and
train people to look after others, the need for more prayer, and
the demand for more workers is huge. You are caught up in the whole
wonderful and demanding, exhausting mix of a move of God. The
implications and repercussions are going to hit everyone, hard. You
don t need this pressure right now. We know you will enjoy this
powerful book THE PROTOTYPE CHURCH."
