Just This is a collection of brief and evocative meditations and practices that invites us to cultivate the gift of waking up to the beauty of reality in all its glorious ordinariness. With his signature blend of contemplation, theology, and pastoral sensitivity, Fr Richard Rohr creates a spaciousness for the soul to grow into a kind of seeing that goes far beyond merely looking to recognising and thus appreciating. This is the heart of contemplation, the centerpiece of any inner dialogue that frees us from the traps of our perceptions and preoccupations. The contemplative mind does not tell us what to see; it teaches us how to see what we behold.

Pastor of Angelus Temple and the Dream Center, founder Matthew Barnett leads participants on a six-week learning experience to understand how simple it is to make a lasting impact on their world. It is not as daunting as we might think. World-changers start with a heart open to the leading of the Holy Spirit and a willingness to do as he asks. Ideal for small groups, Bible studies, and church classes, this kit includes a copy of the book One Small Step, a DVD with an in-depth video for each session, and a participant's guide to help members hear the Holy Spirit's voice and obey his nudges. Also included are small step activities to participate in, throughout the study and beyond. Boldly embrace the life-changing adventure of becoming the hands and feet of Jesus to the people right outside your front door. You will soon discover that "random acts of kindness" are not so random after all.

Die dood van ’n geliefde bring intense hartseer mee. Dr. Henk Gous deel in Wanneer ’n geliefde sterf uit sy jare lange ervaring as berader asook sy persoonlike ervaring met die verlies van sy dogter. Hy is daarom ideaal toegerus om jou met wysheid en empatie op hierdie moeilike pad van rousmart te begelei. Elkeen van die 40 dagstukkies het plek om jou eie emosies, vrae aan God, ondraaglike pyn, selfs woede, en enige ander gedagtes neer te skryf. So sal hierdie boekie ’n joernaal wees van jou uniek persoonlike reis na aanvaarding, vertroosting, vrede en vreugde.

Ervaar God se troos en liefde sodat jy uiteindelik weer met vreugde kan leef totdat jy jou geliefdes eendag weer sien.

Angs neem baie vorme aan, dis dalk die vrees wat oor jou skouer loer, die paniek wat alewig aan jou sy blyk te wees of die wolk van bekommernis wat oor jou lewe hang. Vir baie mense is dit ’n reus wat hulle wysmaak dat hulle nooit, ooit weer ’n normale lewe gaan kan lei nie; ’n reus wat jou vasvang in ’n greep van duisternis en wanhoop.

Jy kán egter losbreek en sonder angs lewe.

Uit sy eerstehandse ervaring van die stryd teen angs, deel Pastoor Louie Giglio beide praktiese en geestelike wenke om vry te kom. Aan die hand van ’n boodskap van bemoediging en hoop verduidelik hy die paradoks dat angs dalk dood is, maar steeds dodelik is – met ander woorde, angs is steeds oorweldigend, maar daar is egter Iemand wat reeds die oorhand oor angs gekry het.

Hierdie nuttige hulpbron wys jou hoe om ‘n kruisie te trek deur jou angs met die sterkste wapen tot ons beskikking: Jesus se kruis. Elke dag se oordenking sal jou help om een voet voor die ander te sit en grond te wen in die stryd sowel as om bose vestings af te breek omdat Jesus reeds namens jou die oorwinning behaal het.

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.

Whether you need motivation for a challenging day or comfort during trying times, All That I Need will provide you with promises and hope from God’s Word. Written by well-known evangelist Angus Buchan, these 366 devotions aim to make you aware of God’s presence in your life and that He provides all that you need.

Be encouraged to live out God’s love every day as you take inspiration from the Scriptures and advice and encouragement from Angus Buchan’s signature down-to-earth style.

Hoe wonderlik dat God ons vertrou om Sy ligdraers te wees. Nog beter nuus, Hy maak ons gewillig en bekwaam om Sy ligdraers te wees.

As ons aan onsself die vraag sou vra: Hoe vervul ons die verwagting van God, om sy werk hier op aarde te doen? Alles gaan nie noodwendig oor ons woorde nie, maar die grootste kommunikasie is wat mense by ons sien, ons optrede elke dag.

In die boek probeer ek ’n paar punte uitlig waarop ons kan fokus om die verwagting wat God oor ons het, na te kom. Die groot beloning vir ons staan in Fillipense 2 v. 16 waar die Woord sê dat God trots gaan wees op ons omdat ons Sy ligdraers was.

Ons geloof is ’n offer in Sy diens.

Old Testament heroes are best known for their most celebrated moments: Moses dividing the Red Sea; David slaying Goliath; Gideon routing an insurmountable army; Joshua marching around the defiant walls of Jericho.

And Elijah—calling down fire on Mount Carmel.

Blinded by the remarkable narratives of our biblical heroes, we can forget they each had a backstory—months and years of development, even difficulty, which fortified their spiritual muscle and prepared them for the tasks that made their lives unforgettable.

Every serious believer longs to summon up the kind of boldness and faith that can stand firm on Mount Carmel and pray down heaven into impossible situations. Yet few are willing to go through the process required to get them there. Strength of faith, character, and boldness can only be shaped in the hidden fires of silence, sameness, solitude, and adversity. Those who patiently wait on God in the darkness emerge with their holy loyalty cemented, their courage emblazoned, and their confident belief in Him set afire.

Join Priscilla Shirer on this 7-session journey through the life and times of the prophet Elijah to discover how the fire on Mount Carmel was forged in the valley of famine. And how the emboldened, fiery faith you desire is being fashioned by God in your life right now.
