Are you hurting and secretly wondering, “How am I going to get through
this? Why aren’t my prayers being answered? Where is God? When will my
prayers be answered?”
Writing out of the pain of his wife’s fight for her life, Pete Greig
steps into the dark side of prayer and emerges with a hard-won message
of hope, comfort, and profound biblical insight for all who suffer in
silence. God on Mute: Engaging the Silence of Unanswered Prayer is a

you.

prayers. Each day of this journey prayerfully explores a bit of the
Bible, alongside a quote from the book.

How to Tell the Truth is the story of Preston Perry’s path toward God.
A hope-filled apologetics and evangelism book.
In this compelling and gripping book, Preston tells the story of how
God chased him. The streets of Chicago were his home, and it was there
that he encountered all sorts of people who had their own versions of
the truth—from Jehovah Witnesses to Mormons to Hebrew Israelites. That
is where Preston discovered not only the importance of the truth but
how to tell the truth in a way that speaks to someone’s heart. Sharing
our faith is not about winning arguments; it’s about winning hearts.
And the way we do that is by engaging with friends, neighbours, and
coworkers around us about our beliefs with truth, dignity, and respect.
With How to Tell the Truth, you will:
• Be inspired by Preston’s own incredible story about how God
transformed his life forever by showing him the very heart of what it
means to be a Christian.
• Be equipped with practical and easy ways to reach your friends and
your neighbours with the truth of the gospel with kindness and love.
• Be challenged to respond to God’s call to be bold. Eternity is at
stake.
This book is like no other book you’ve read. Preston’s own story,
including his successes and failures, is woven throughout the book to
help us see how urgent our task is—and how powerful our God is.

“God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.” This
simple but powerful statement has been a cornerstone of John Piper’s
ministry for nearly 40 years. Laying out the principles behind this
“Christian Hedonism” Desiring God has proved to be a source of rich
theological insight for countless readers through the years, guiding
them to the fullness of joy found in Christ.
In this foundational work, John Piper addresses profound questions
about the purpose of life and the human pursuit of pleasure. Drawing
wisdom from Scripture and insights from church history, Piper
challenges the belief that believers must sacrifice joy in order to
please God. Instead, finding delight in God does not diminish his
glory; rather, it magnifies it and fulfils the deepest desires of our
souls.

Boet Cronje is hardkoppig, arrogant en ontken dat sy bruin
regterhand op die plaas eintlik sy halfbroer is. Maar met God as
vennoot, 'n familieplaas en 'n erfgenaam lyk die toekoms vir Boet
aanvanklik belowend. 'n Langdurige droogte en die dood van sy seun
laat hom egter in opstand teen God kom. Die koggelaar vertel die
verhaal van 'n man wat oortuig is dat God hom tart; ironies genoeg
word hy die een wat koggel.
God created you in His image, with specific skills and gifts. You are
completely one-of-a-kind, and there’s no one in the whole world exactly
like you. But the world often tries to conform us to its image instead.
You may have felt the pressure of these lies: that you’re not good
enough, that things would be better if you were more like someone else,
or that you need to become the person others want you to be in order to
be loved and accepted.
God’s Word shows us over and over again that we are loved and chosen by
God. He calls us to rest in our identity in Christ, but how can we do
that when there is so much confusion and pressure? In Living
Confidently, you will explore what God says about who we are with eight
sessions designed to help you know and understand everything you have
in Christ.
Throughout the eight sessions of this study, you will explore what God
says about who you are and be equipped to walk in confidence and stand
firm in your identity.

scriptures

and mind

close to your heart
- Refresh your learning with Scripture memory cards so you can be
reminded of the truth long after you've finished
You can walk in freedom from worry and self-consciousness through the
