Why is it that so many Christians find it difficult to develop a vibrant and exciting prayer life? Even though prayer is foundational to the Christian life, many are intimidated or uncertain about how to talk to God. Prayer feels quaint and old-fashioned to some, sacred and uncomfortable to others. It's not a lack of inspiration--there's plenty of that. And it's not that Christians don't realize prayer is important--they know it is. So what's the issue? Pastor Chris Hodges has spent years studying the prayers of the Bible and the models of prayer that the scriptures provide for Christians. Now, he shares with readers the teachings and methods he's used to successfully help hundreds of thousands of people understand how to spend time in conversation with God--and enjoy every minute. Pray First will help readers:
Written in the personable, relatable, and always biblically based style that has become Hodges's hallmark, Pray First is a revolutionary how-to manual for all Christians who want to experience a dynamic, intimate prayer life with God.

Journalist Lesley Mofokeng investigates the life of his remarkable grandfather, Mongangane Wilfred Mofokeng, a prominent Dutch Reformed Church evangelist, who built a thriving community out of the dust of the far Northwest. The journey takes him from Joburg’s Marabi-soaked townships of the 1930s to his childhood home of Gelukspan near Lichtenburg and then to the rural Free State and the remote mountain kingdom of Lesotho. In what becomes a spiritual quest, he traces the inspirational footsteps of his ancestors and the legendary King Moshoeshoe. In the process, Mofokeng proudly claims his heritage and also uncovers a long-lost chapter of South African history and the church of the apartheid regime.
In 2018, at the end of a speech Rod Dreher gave in Genoa, an artist
gave him an engraving by his own hand. In broken English, the artist
explained that he was in his studio that afternoon when the Holy Spirit
told him that he should come hear Rod Dreher, and give him a particular
drawing of an obscure medieval saint. None of this made sense to Dreher
until two years later, lost in depression and confusion, the saint - a
Tuscan hermit named Galgano - appeared in Dreher's life again under
circumstances that did not at all seem coincidental, sending Dreher on
a search for God's will for his life.
Wat maak iemand ’n held? Of wat maak hom ’n skurk? Wanneer ons hulle

As the West struggles against attempts to destroy it from within and without, key lessons in resilience from its Jewish parent can enable both Christianity and civilization to survive. Western civilization is facing a critical moment. Foreign enemies sensing its weakness are circling. Internally, the West is being consumed by division, decadence, and demoralization. The October 7 attack on Israel presented it with a choice between civilization and barbarism—a challenge the West has failed. But this damaged society is far from lost if it takes advice from an unexpected source. Western culture is based upon Christianity, whose own foundations in turn lie in Judaism. The unique survival of the Jewish people offers both the West and its struggling Christian church, as well as secular people who shun religion, priceless lessons in resilience that they must learn if their culture is to survive.

Change is inevitable. And sometimes it's confusing and difficult, even
when it's good. We can't keep change from coming, but we can allow it
to transform us rather than derail us by facing it and embracing it
through the lens of God's unchanging promises to us.
We will all face changes again and again throughout our lifetimes. We don't have to live dreading the challenges that these changes bring. We can equip ourselves to become people of bravery, optimism, and hope in an ever-changing world, because we have God's assurance that His character and His promises will never change. Become a change warrior and embrace the courage to change.
Force for Good is a bold and refreshingly balanced exploration of
positive masculinity, written to inspire men to become powerful forces
for good in a world that desperately needs them to step into this role.

masculinity – aggressive dominance on one side and passive
disengagement on the other. It offers a vision of true and healthy
masculinity that is both strong and gentle, fierce and safe, confident
and humble.

From Tsh Oxenreider, bestselling author of Shadow and Light: A Journey into Advent, arrives a devotional to help you meditate and rejoice in the transcendent miracle of Easter. You will:

For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's
womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm
139:13-14
Kaiings wil sę: Waarheid en wysheid is twee karperde wat weet dat dit in die ritme van lewe nie altyd klopdisselboom gaan nie. Mens word ontnugter deur die feit dat waarheid dikwels verpak is in kaiings van twyfel, sinisme, valsheid en oppervlakkigheid. Selfs Pilatus het gesukkel terwyl die Sanhedrin hom woedend aangluur: Wat is waarheid? Die media beweeg dikwels tussen feit en sensasie. Waarheid word omhul deur skyn en die teendeel van feitelikheid, naamlik bedrog en leuens. Die media laat mens twyfel. So ook is wysheid meestal ‘n masker vir dwaasheid en eie gewin. Veral in publieke kommunikasie en politieke debatte. Ook die waarheid van die Christelike geloof word maklik verpak in kerspapier van kerklike formules en sinodeverslae oor hoe om geloof suiwer te hou en van dwaling te bevry. Ongelukkig kan geloofsbelydenisse ook met behulp van die kulkuns van interpretasie en kultuurparadigmas, met hermeneutiese ‘spekskiet’ verpak word. Die titel wil sę: Die waarheid van kaiings braai uit en kierankies vorm harde kastaiings wat niemand weet hoe om uit die vuur te krap nie. Selfs die harde neut van hoe om oor God op outentieke wyse na te dink proe, na baie eeue van ortodoksie, effe galsterig. Hierdie boek waag nie met definisies oor die wat van geloof en die sin van die lewe nie, maar karring voort oor die hoe van geloof: Om met blomkoolore te skrum (volharding), met derms te geniet (God se vrolike ruil) en empatie te luister (barmhartigheid). Om weer sinvol te lees en te leef, in bliksemgedagtes met dood te moet worstel en te voorkom dat ek as pastor bloot as ‘n hoëpriester met aparte pyn gebrandmerk word, moet ek soms van Weskus bokkom-spraak, asook van tinktinkietaal en mossiegetjirp gebruikmaak!

Understanding God's Unbreakable Covenant with His People and Their Land
In ’n węreld wat nooit ophou verander nie, moet suksesvolle leiers ook deurgaans die koers aanpas en veranderinge aanbring. Dit wat gister gesorg het vir sukses, werk nie meer vandag nie. Maar hoe lyk suksesvolle leierskap vandag? In Leierskap 101 bespreek Stephan Joubert en Johan Smith 101 aspekte van hoe leierskap vandag lyk. Hierdie unieke blik op leierskap bevestig dat leiers God se gestuurde dienaars is. Deur te kyk na sake soos integriteit, visie, leierskap in die kerk en gehoorsaamheid wys hulle dat leierskap nie ’n lyding hoef te wees nie, maar ’n heerlike en vervullende voorreg. Ontdek ’n heel nuwe waarheid oor leierskap en word die leier wat God bedoel het jy moet wees.
Recently voices have been heard saying that the Bible is not literally God's word, but rather the word of God in ordinary Human language. Sometimes people say that the Bible is nothing more than words about God. Izak Spangenberg attempts to formulate a contemporary perspective on the Bible. He shows that the Bible is a book that can greatly assist us in our reflections on God and in our quest for meaning in life. If we use it wisely, it can indeed serve as a guide. Essentially, however, in the author's opinion, the Bible is not intended as a book of law with which we are to judge other people.
Ten spyte van getroue kerkbywoning, Bybel lees en gebede is dit
opvallend dat ons geloof dikwels nie ’n verskil in ons lewe maak nie.
Hoe kan ’n mens dan in ’n nuwe kragtige geloofsrat inbeweeg? Deur
'n ware konneksie met die Here te maak. In hierdie 250
onopgesmukte dagstukkies deel Susan alledaagse stories uit haar lewe
wat jou sal help om die Here se nabyheid oral tasbaarder te ervaar. Die
boek is daarop gemik om geestelike groei aan te moedig deur nuwe
maniere van dink en doen te kweek. |
