In a world where boundaries and guardrails are encouraged, our focus can become
narrow and near-sighted. The Christian faith is replete with self-control and guided
resistance of all the matters of life that can trip us up. But are boundaries and
guardrails, self-control and resistance meant for the spirit chasing after the heart of
God?

Bible teacher and author, Kat Armstrong dares to ask and explore what faith and life
in general would look like if we broke through all the barriers holding us back and we
actually practiced loving the Lord our God with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind,
and all our strength. What if we lived giving Jesus our ALL?

Born out of a real-life confrontation with a fellow student at seminary who challenged
Kat's reasoning, purpose, and goal for pursing a deeper knowledge of God's Word,
this study delves into the deep of our person and dares us to answer, What Am I
Even Here For? Who am I to chase after God? How do I actually follow Jesus'
command?

Through engaging and heartfelt Biblical teaching, Kat guides us on a journey down
the narrow path, the one less traveled, because it is hard and it is difficult-but it is
worth every step. Following after Jesus takes effort, perseverance, trust, focus, and
energy. It takes our ALL. In a world that emphasized qualifications, Kat offers a fresh
perspective of encouragement that aligns with Scripture from beginning to end:
"Don't be afraid. Give me your everything."

If you have ever felt challenged or insecure in your personal pursuit of God, this is
your study.

Designed for use with the No More Holding Back Video Study (sold separately).

The dramatic, real-life stories in this book will inspire you, and Benny Hinn's Bible-based teaching on the key to your miracle will give you a greater understanding of how Jesus heals today.

Discover the Good Life as you learn from the wise voices of the past. We've lost ourselves. Disconnected from the past and uncertain about the future, we are anxious about what our lives will be and troubled by a nagging sense of meaninglessness. Adrift in the world, many Christians have their identity completely wrapped up in work, and their definition of the "good life" is financial success. Fewer of are staying committed to the Christian faith, finding it difficult to reconcile their experience with their longings and desires. With so much uncertainty, where can we find a true vision of "the Good Life"? Learning the Good Life speaks to this malaise with a curated collection of voices from the past, inviting Christians into an ages-old dialogue with some of history's wisest and most reflective minds. Featuring thought-provoking writings from a diverse lineup of over 35 writers and thinkers: From the classic-including Confucius, Augustine, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, Henry David Thoreau, and Frederick Douglass; To the modern-including W.E.B. DuBois, Flannery O'Connor, T.S. Eliot, and Simone Weil; To the contemporary-including Wendell Berry, David Foster Wallace, and Marilynne Robinson. Together these sages, writers, philosophers, and poets address important issues such as virtue, beauty, community, wonder, suffering, and meaning. Each of these texts are introduced by experts from a variety of Christian colleges and universities to help provide a richer narrative in which Christians can participate. Each text is also accompanied by discussion questions to provoke further thought and contemplation and to facilitate discussion when used in groups. Learning the Good Life is ideal for any Christian seeking a deeper connection to the wisdom of the past and wanting a more cohesive vision of the good life. Though not all these writers were themselves Christians, they all have a message for you. All of them are calling you to die to yourself, to your habits of indulgence, to your pride and ambition-and to dedicate your time to learning, thinking, and loving.

Die Untersuchung beschaftigt sich mit den Schulfahrten an den Katholischen Gymnasien im Bistum Osnabruck und stellt die Frage, ob diese damit ihrem schulischen Auftrag nachkommen. Dabei tragt der Autor zunachst zur Weiterentwicklung der Pilger- und Wallfahrtstheologie bei, indem er die Ursprunge des Pilgerns und des Wallfahrens herleitet, in den Kontext der Kirchengeschichte stellt und sie an den Erfahrungen der untersuchten Schulfahrten reflektiert. Er pladiert hier fur eine Differenzierung zwischen Pilgern und Wallfahren, die sich in unterschiedlichen Konzepten der Durchfuhrung niederschlagt. Um die Frage nach der Relevanz fur eine Pilger- oder Wallfahrt an einer Schule zu beantworten, zeigt Andreas Gautier zunachst die Motivation von Schulgrundungen auf. Hier werden Unterschiede zwischen Katholischer Kirche und Staat als Trager deutlich. Diese umfassen das Bildungs- und Erziehungsverstandnis, was wiederum unterschiedliche Antworten auf die Frage liefert, ob Pilgern oder Wallfahren dem schulischen Auftrag gerecht wird. Der empirische Teil, dem eine quantitative Erhebung zugrunde liegt, untermauert diese Herleitung und zeigt weitergehende Implikationen fur eine Umsetzung auf.
