Many parents have taken a defeatist approach toward understanding their teens, and not without good reason; it does often seem hopeless, after all. But that's where you, the volunteer youth worker, come in. Mark Oestreicher shows that Understanding Today's Teenager is both possible and rewarding, if one has the right tools. Marko explores the dimensions of nature vs. nurture, brain activity, culture, biology, and emotional development, all of which lead teenagers to do the wacky things they do that adults don't understand and often can't remember having done themselves. Marko also reminds us that adolescent development doesn't end at the age of 18 just because United States law says it does. A Volunteer Youth Worker's Guide to Understanding Today's Teenager uses a combination of science, logic, and compassion to help bring us back from the cliff edge and remember why we started working with teens in the first place. Use this book as a jumping-off point to re-ignite your passion for teens.
Hierdie boek handel oor die onderstebo koninkryk van God. Hierdie koninkryk wat op 'n heel anderster manier werk as wat ons mense werk. Jesus se slagspreuk; die koninkryk van die hemel is hier word getakel in hierdie stuk met 'n spesifieke verwysing na vele van sy gelykenisse en aforismes. Wanneer ons na Jesus se lering en stories, in die maatskaplike en politiese konteks van sy tyd kyk ontbloot dit 'n heel ander perspektief. 'n Perspektief wat ongemaklik, selfs irriterend, tog steeds lewegewend is. Hierdie koninkryk wat alles op sy kop kom draai het, of eintlik weer regop gedraai het, is waar ons, ons menslikheid herontdek. Die boek is opgedeel in drie dele, drie areas en aspekte van elke mens se lewe wat Jesus op hulle, kop of weer regop, kom draai het. Ek en God, ek en myself, en ek en my dorp. Hierdie werk se doel is ook om die ‘Liewe Jesus’ beeld te dekonstrueer, en die radikaliteit van Jesus se boodskap en die koninkryk na vore te bring.
Die daaglikse lewe kan uitdagend wees; ons aandag word maklik afgelei deur soveel dinge wat belangrik lyk. Maar om die lewe te leef wat God vir jou beplan het, moet jy tyd maak vir dit wat die belangrikste is, en die fondament van ’n vervulde lewe – jou verhouding met Hom. Oor die verloop van drie jaar het Joyce Meyer in haar joernaal die persoonlike oordenkings en inspirasie neergepen wat haar besige lewe aangevuur het. Daardie oordenkings vorm My tyd met God , 365 dagstukkies wat die leser intieme insig gee in Joyce se geestelike reis. Met hierdie boek bied sy ’n praktiese manier om tyd saam met God deur te bring. Die dagstukkies bevat oordenkings wat spruit uit Joyce se lewe, opbouende verklarings en relevante Skrifgedeeltes om groter nabyheid met God aan te moedig. Die Bybelverse en persoonlike stories wat sy deel sal jou help om groter vreugde en vrede te ervaar danksy jou spesiale tyd met God. Jy sal meer doeltreffend deur die lewe kan gaan, beter besluite kan neem en die wonderlike lewe wat jy bestem was om te hê, vir jouself toeëien.

An Unlikely Missionary Dispels the Myth That
The perfect Lent book for art lovers of all ages
How can someone be perfectly imperfect? Isn't that a contradiction? The Bible is filled with stories of people with all kinds of flaws and imperfections. The astounding thing is what happens when God changes their lives. Perfectly Imperfect is about people whose true-to-life stories are found in the New Testament. They are like us in many ways confused, tempted, and often afraid, but then they meet Jesus, and their lives are wonderfully transformed. Through the character sketches in this book, we learn how God works with us. We discover something about the way God transforms us from what we are into what we can be. In these sometimes tragic and broken lives, we get a glimpse of how God renews us and remakes us into people who are perfectly imperfect.
Internationally renowned Bible teacher Joyce Meyer draws on her own history of abuse to show women how Christ's redeeming love heals emotional wounds and brings joy to life. Can a woman who has been deeply hurt by life's circumstances be healed, heart and soul? If she has been wounded by a man she loved and trusted, can she love and trust again? As a woman who endured years of abuse, abandonment, and betrayal by those closest to her, Joyce Meyer can answer with a resounding "yes!" Meyer's positivity comes from living her own journey, and from seeing so many women who don't believe they can fully overcome their pain--or even know where to begin--find the guidance they need in the life-changing wisdom of the Bible. Meyer's bestseller Beauty for Ashes told of her personal story of healing. Now, with the passage of more time, HEALING THE SOUL OF A WOMAN delves deeper into Joyce's story and the journey of healing for all women. Each chapter guides you through whatever obstacles may be holding you back to find your true destiny as God's beloved. God can heal all pain, and He wants to do this in you. Let HEALING THE SOUL OF A WOMAN be the first step toward the wonderful, joyful future God intends for you.
Kan eet teruggeëis word as heilige daad, deels met die wete dat jy nooit geïsoleerd is nie, selfs al voel dit so? Hedendaagse verbruikerskultuur vergeet die onsigbare, minag die ontasbare en maak ’n bespotting van die geringe. Is daar ’n lewegewende alternatief vir hierdie kultuur? Ons kan dit verander deur Christelike spiritualiteit en die keuse om aandagtig en bewustelik te lewe. Jy kan dit doen by ’n tafel – jy kan ’n sinnelose, bedwelmde bestaan ontkom en jy kan sien en hoor wat jy nooit sal sien en hoor as jy slegs ’n gewone verbruiker bly nie. Begin deur bewustelik te eet. Kyk na jou bord, asem die reuke in, kyk saam met wie eet jy, besef dat iets moes sterf vir daardie kos om op jou bord te beland, hetsy ’n hoender of ’n wortel. Die tafel is die verbindingsplek, met jouself, die natuur, met ander mense en met God. Kry balans in alles – moenie te veel eet nie, moenie te min eet nie, eet van alles, eet volhoubaar.
The spoken word has immense potential for either building up or tearing down. Too often, it's the latter. Many of us are daily carrying around hurtful words, sometimes without even knowing it. These negative words have great influence over our lives and the lives of those around us. But thankfully, they are not the last word. Mary Busha speaks to the hurting and guides them toward victory over the harmful, demeaning, or insulting words of their past. She shows readers how to - understand the emotions and circumstances behind the words - choose to want to forgive their offenders - embrace the truth about who they are created to be - recognize the effect of both negative and positive self-talk - pray effectively to break the power of negative words - and walk in the freedom God provides in his Word She also encourages readers to find ways to use their own words to lift up the people God places in their paths.
Families are living stories. They tell us where we came from, guide us as we live our lives, and help us see who we could become. Especially priceless are the lives and words of those who came before us. Christ-followers from earliest times to the present enrich us with their insight and inspiring examples. In the face of political, social and theological challenges, these saints lived lives faithful to the gospel story. The Book of Saints The Middle Era is a devotional gateway to the thoughts and insights of church leaders, teachers, and spiritual mentors who lived between the early fourth and early fifteenth century. Living in a world of change, conflict, and controversy, these saintly persons have much to say to us today. Their words and life stories, along with prayers and Scripture selections, are brought together in this book to inspire and challenge us to a life of love and holiness, the great themes of our family story. |
