been able to get into A Course in Miracles.' - Dr Christiane

If you've always wanted to read A Course in Miracles but feel
daunted by its sheer size, you'll love this modern-day rewrite of

you'll find: - daily lessons with titles like 'Transcending the
Chatty Asshat in My Head' and 'The Ego Is Not My Amigo!' - the
essential message of the original spiritual text explained in the
context of everyday life - recaps to make the lessons from the
Course really stick - personal stories that are both laugh-out-loud
funny and deeply soul-stirring Pam's unique blend of eternal truths
with pop culture and personal anecdotes makes this book a deeply
relatable and, most importantly, fun text to help you on your
spiritual path. It's user friendly, accessible, easy for everyone
to understand - and it will change your life.

and worry, Brother Richard brings us on a transformative journey of
meditation, poetry and sacred pause, enabling us to experience a

John Eldredge, autor best seller del New York Times ofrece una guia
paso a paso hacia una oracion eficaz, una guia paso a paso a traves
de diversas ocasiones en las que las oraciones pueden ser
aplicadas, incluyendo el fundamento biblico que respalda "la
tecnica", anecdotas alentadoras y modelos de oraciones. ?Por que
unas oraciones funcionan y otras no? ?Como se sentiria orar con la
confianza y la garantia de que Dios te escucha y que tus oraciones
hacen una diferencia? John Eldredge ofrece una guia paso a paso
hacia una oracion eficaz. Todos tenemos una razon para orar.
Anhelamos ver que Dios conceda nuestras peticiones y las de
nuestros seres amados. Sin embargo, algunas veces no lo hace, y
entonces, ?donde nos deja esa situacion? ?Estamos haciendo algo
mal? ?No nos escucha? ?Por que las oraciones de algunas personas
parecen mas eficaces que las de otras? Entonces nos desanimamos y
dejamos de lado la oracion, el arma misma que Dios nos ha dado para
que no nos desanimemos. Si tienes algun interes en la oracion,
necesitas oraciones que funcionen. Esa es la clase de oraciones que
constituyen el tema de este libro. Cuando descubrimos que la
oracion no consiste simplemente en pedirle a Dios que haga algo,
sino que representa nuestra colaboracion con El, se abren ante
nosotros nuevas posibilidades. No hay nada mas esperanzador que el
pensamiento de que las cosas pueden ser diferentes, y de que
tenemos un papel que desempenar en producir los cambios necesarios.
Con Dios, podemos mover montanas. Mueve montanas te ensenara como
experimentar el poder de la oracion, desde la intimidad de la
oracion de escuchar, la oracion de sanidad interior y el "clamor
del corazon", hasta la habilidad de las oraciones de intervencion,
de consagracion y de guerra espiritual. Tu vida nunca sera la
misma. Tampoco lo sera el mundo... gracias a tus oraciones. This
book offers a step-by-step guide through a variety of prayer
applications, including the biblical basis supporting the
"technique," encouraging anecdotes, and model prayers. The
disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to pray!" Most Christians-most
people for that matter-want to pray and do pray, but they don't
feel confident in the process. This book offers a step-by-step
guide through a variety of prayer applications, including the
biblical basis supporting the "technique," encouraging anecdotes,
and model prayers. John Eldredge has been teaching people how to
pray for twenty years, and he has seen remarkable results. From
experience, he knows what gets in the way of effective prayer and
how to help people toward prayer that is truly effective. The book
begins with a liberating reframing of what prayer is. Most
Christians labor under the fundamental misconception that prayer is
essentially "asking God to intervene." This assumption has led to
untold confusion and grief, for many do ask but God does not seem
to hear...or care. Whereas Jesus said to his disciples, "I will
give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on
earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will
be loosed in heaven" (Matt 16:19). When we operate from a position
of our authority in Christ, we approach prayer with far greater
confidence.
Prayers & Promises for Girls incorporates more than 70 themes
that will help guide your sweet girl in how to connect with her
Creator in all the different areas of her life. It will help her
understand God's promises about faithfulness, trust, wisdom, worth,
beauty, strength, and much more, while also encouraging her to
pray. She will see that by staying connected to God, and believing
the promises of his Word, she can live a fulfilling, blessed life
in close relationship with her heavenly Father.

Scripture reveals a God who meets us where we are, not where we
pretend to be. No More Faking Fine is your invitation to get honest
with God through the life-giving language of lament. If you've ever
been given empty cliches during challenging times, you know how
painful it is to be misunderstood by well-meaning people. When life
hurts, we often feel pressure--from others and ourselves--to keep
it together, suck it up, or pray it away. But Scripture reveals a
God who lovingly invites us to give honest voice to our emotions
when life hits hard. For most of her life, Esther Fleece Allen
believed she could bypass the painful emotions of her broken past
by shutting them down altogether. She was known as an achiever and
an overcomer on the fast track to success. But in silencing her
pain, she robbed herself of the opportunity to be healed. Maybe
you've done the same. Esther's journey into healing began when she
discovered that God has given us a real-world way to deal with raw
emotions and an alternative to the coping mechanisms that end up
causing more pain. It's called lament--the gut-level, honest prayer
that God never ignores, never silences, and never wastes. No More
Faking Fine is your permission to lament, taking you on a journey
down the unexpected pathway to true intimacy with God. Drawing from
careful biblical study and hard-won insight, Esther reveals how to
use God's own language to come closer to him as he leads us through
our pain to the light on the other side, teaching you that: We are
robbing ourselves of a divine mystery and a divine intimacy when we
pretend to have it all together God does not expect us to be
perfect; instead, he meets us where we are There is hope beyond
your heartache, disappointment, and grief Like Esther, you'll soon
find that when one person stops faking fine, it gives everyone else
permission to do the same.
We need God's help...and fast Deborah Smith Pegues, a behavioral
consultant and the author of "30 Days to Taming Your Tongue" (more
than 500,000 copies sold), offers readers a 9-1-1 prayerbook for
life's many circumstances and needs. Brief, immediate, and
heartfelt, these prayers bring God's Word to the forefront of a
reader's mind as they lift up cries for:
- help on the homefront
- financial discipline and direction
- resistance of temptations
- guidance in important decisions
- comfort in the midst of pain
This conveniently sized emergency guide can remain close at hand
and heart as it leads readers to God's presence for every need.
