Het dit al ooit gevoel of jou man jou nie liefhet nie? Voel dit of jou vrou jou nie respekteer nie? Te veel huwelike eindig vandag in egskeiding omdat mans en vroue mekaar nie verstaan nie.

Deur die riglyne in Liefde en respek toe te pas, kan paartjies nuwe vlakke van intimiteit beleef en die huwelik hê waarvan hulle nog altyd net gedroom het.

Based on the viral sermon series, Crazy Faith is an invitation to stop watching the life of faith from the sidelines.

All too often we think that the great days of God’s power and wonder are behind us. Sure, there are some stories of God’s people doing mighty things, but those were in the ancient world, right? But think about Abraham, Moses, Esther, David, and Mary. They didn’t know they were living in “Bible times.” They were just living in “times.” Times like you’re living in today.

Somewhere along the way, they had the faith to live their lives out on the limb, to do something that seemed impossible, to trust God with something that was by all rational accounts unlikely to happen, something we might call crazy.

This type of faith is for today, and God is looking for people with big faith to do big things. Instead of living with baby faith, lazy faith, or hazy faith, it’s time to step into a life of crazy faith! It’s time to step out of excuses and fear and into the big, bold future that God has for you.

A coming-of-age travel memoir that probes thorny spiritual questions while taking the reader on a wild ride from the deep American South to the Middle East, Europe, and the Far East. Once the golden girl of her Arkansas town, Natalie finds herself squeezed under small town shame and rejection after being kicked out of church for getting a divorce. It's a hard fall off of a sanctimonious high horse, and religious fundamentalism has left her feeling broken and stuck. But she can't shake the 'wanderlust woes' that have plagued her since childhood, so she runs away to the Middle East. As a mostly-sheltered Southerner, she struggles to adapt but is determined to be 'at home' in the world. Her journey is more than a pilgrimage, it's a peregrination: a one-way ticket to elsewhere in search of the place of her own resurrection. Within these pages is a suspenseful adventure filled with love, loss, laughter, tears, and a little bit of scandalous behavior, but at the heart of it, Natalie walks squarely into the unknown to confront the secret matters of the soul that we wrestle with at night.

Ruth Haley Barton's award-winning, practical introduction to the spiritual practice of silence and solitude is an invitation to you to journey into the real presence of God and hear and his voice. Much of the Christian faith is about words - preaching, teaching, talking with others. But the hectic demands and noise of daily modern life can drown out God's words, and keep us from fully meeting him. Taking the story of Elijah the prophet as inspiration and example, Invitation to Solitude and Silence explores the power of quietness and stillness in connecting with God. Filled with practical exercises that draw on Ruth's own experience, it encourages and challenges us to rethink how we see silence and solitude and to use them to invite God deeper into our lives. Invitation to Solitude and Silence is ideal for anyone looking for spiritual disciplines to help them connect more fully with God and practices to aid their spiritual formation. Ruth's gentle wisdom will expand your idea of what prayer can be, and help you find time to rest and renew your faith so that your relationship with God is strengthened. Helpful and hopeful, this book is a reminder that God does not push himself where he is not wanted but waits for us to respond from the depths of our desire. Will you say yes?

Nadat Ockert en Michele Potgieter getroud is, het hulle hul tasse gepak en vertrek Oekraïne toe, nie vir hulle wittebrood nie, maar om daar te werk onder die mense wat onlangs bevry is van agter die ystergordyn.

Dit is egter ’n groot ontnugtering vir Michele in die begin – dit is yskoud in die winter en snikwarm in die somer. Die meeste huise het net buitetoilette en daar is min verskeidenheid in basiese kruideniersware. Die mense is baie vriendelik en hulle word meestal met oop arms verwelkom. Maar alles is nie altyd maklik nie, daar is ’n noue ontkoming met die mafia, agtervolging deur die KGB en verraad van binne die gemeente. Dan sterf Ockert tydens die Covid 19-pandemie tydens ’n besoek aan Suid-Afrika. Michele moet besluit of sy teruggaan Oekraïne toe, waar ’n oorlog dreig en of sy in Suid-Afrika by haar mense en haar kinders bly.

Dit is ’n aangrypende verhaal oor liefde: liefde vir God, vir die mense van die Oekraïne, maar ook die liefde tussen Michele, Ockert en hul kinders.

Across the 30,000 or so varieties of Christianity, believers universally love Jesus. They have no trouble accepting his humanity and his divinity. Many express intimations of his close presence in their lives; a fear of his judgment and wrath as well as a love of his compassion; a justification for their worldviews and politics (of all persuasions), and firm convictions about his atonement for their sins and thus his centrality in their personal salvation.

But who is Christ?

Is Christ simply Jesus's last name, denoting his role as saviour of humanity, as messiah? What is Christ? How is his function or role different from Jesus's? Are we missing something fundamental because of our overwhelming emphasis on Jesus to the exclusion of the Christ, or our misunderstanding of what it means that Jesus was `the Christ'? Could it be that such limited views are contributing to the slow and painful erosion of Christianity in western culture, to its insularity and insistence on purity and exclusion?

These are questions Fr Richard Rohr has been pondering for many years. In his ecumenical and scripturally grounded books on contemplation, mysticism and many more topics, he has emphasized the importance of a large framework for understanding the nature of 'what is' and what lasts, of unity and the ultimate reality of God's presence in all of creation-Christian and non-Christian, human and non-human.

Could it be that Jesus, who is the Christ, is offering us a model and example on how to live inside `this Big Frame?'

As Christians, we know that we should become more like Jesus - so we try to act differently. But changing our outward behaviour doesn't change our hearts. Only God's grace can do that. Renovation of the Heart lays a biblical foundation for spiritual transformation, exploring the disciplines and practices that are crucial if we are to be changed from the inside out. Immensely profound but also practical and encouraging, Dallas Willard's insightful wisdom challenges us to rethink what it really means to become more Christlike and how we do so. This special 20th anniversary edition - featuring a new introduction by John Mark Comer, revised discussion questions and a never before published interview with Dallas Willard - shows that this dynamic and practical approach to spiritual growth is just as needed today as it was 20 years ago. It will both challenge and inspire you on the path of becoming more like Jesus and equip you to engage actively and intentionally in your spiritual formation. Renovation of the Heart has helped countless Christians begin the process of spiritual transformation. It is ideal both for anyone new to the Christian faith looking for guidance in discipleship, and those who are already Christians and want a new approach to help their spiritual growth and reaffirm their faith. Don't settle for complacency. Accept the challenge Renovation of the Heart offers and discover what Dallas Willard describes as a divine process that "brings every element in our being, working from inside out, into harmony with the will of God." Become an intentional apprentice of Jesus Christ, changing daily as you walk with Him.

Christianity Today Book of the Year In the overlooked moments and routines of our day, we can become aware of God's presence in surprising ways. How do we embrace the sacred in the ordinary and the ordinary in the sacred? Framed around one typical day, this book explores life through the lens of liturgy-small practices and habits that form us. In each chapter, Tish Harrison Warren considers a common daily experience-making the bed, brushing her teeth, losing her keys. Drawing from the diversity of her life as a campus minister, Anglican priest, friend, wife, and mother, Warren opens up a practical theology of the everyday. Each activity is related to a spiritual practice as well as an aspect of our Sunday worship. Liturgy of the Ordinary is now part of the IVP Signature Collection, which features special editions of iconic books in celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of InterVarsity Press.

Holy Fear is not a topic you'll hear much about these days. But if you want to build a faith that stands strong through troubled times, you cannot afford to ignore this book.

In The Awe of God: The Astounding Way A Healthy Fear Of God Transforms Your Life, John Bevere invites you to take a fresh look at what it means to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. This healthy, holy, and largely forgotten virtue is the uncommon path to a more fulfilled and fruitful life.

In this book you will see why godly fear is the foundation of:

• Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge
• Foresight, clarity, and divine direction
• Maturity and conformity to the image of Jesus Christ
• Building an eternal legacy
• Confidence, fearlessness, and security
• Freedom from the fear of man as all lesser fears are eclipsed

If you look at the men and women in Scripture, the ones who lived and finish well all have one thing in common: they are marked by holy fear.

The Awe of God was designed to be read slowly and intentionally. At the end of each of the 42 chapters are five tools to help you deepen your understanding and apply what the Spirit of God is teaching you. Experience the intimate relationship with God that you have always longed for by unlocking this countercultural message.
