Deur die loop van haar invloedryke loopbaan as skrywer het Stormie
Omartian miljoene vroue geďnspireer om kragtig te bid oor hulle
huwelik, gesin en lewe. Nou wil Stormie die volgende geslag
gebedstryders leer hoe om met God te praat.
In Die krag van ’n biddende meisie ontdek ampertiener-meisies tussen 8
en 12 méér as net hoe om met God te kommunikeer. Hulle sal ontdek hoe
lief God hulle het, wat hulle ware geestelike identiteit is, wie Jesus
is en hoe hulle Hom as hulle Verlosser kan aanvaar.
Elke hoofstuk het eenvoudige vrae om meisies in hulle geloof te help
groei, met plek om hulle antwoorde neer te skryf.
Vat hande met Stormie en help ampertiener-meisies om die
lewensveranderende krag van gebed te ontsluit.
With the extraordinary growth of Christianity in the global south
has come the rise of "reverse missions," in which countries in
Asia, Africa, and Latin America send missionaries to re-evangelize
the West. In The Spirit Moves West, Rebecca Kim focuses on South
Korea as a case study of how non-Western missionaries evangelize
Americans, particularly white Americans. Known as the "Asian
Protestant Superpower," South Korea now sends more missionaries
abroad than any country except the United States; there are
approximately 22,000 Korean missionaries in over 160 countries.
Drawing on four years of in-depth interviews, participant
observation, and surveys of South Korea's largest
non-denominational missionary-sending agency, University Bible
Fellowship, Rebecca Kim gives us an inside look at reverse
missions. Conducting her research both in the US and South Korea,
she studies the motivations and methods of Korean evangelicals who
have sought to "bring the gospel back" to America since the 1970s.
She also explores how a mission movement from the global South
could evolve over time in the West. The Spirit Moves West is the
first empirically-grounded examination of a much-discussed
phenomenon, which concludes by considering what the future of
non-Western, especially Korean, missions will bring.
This volume, the first in a major new series which will provide
authoritative texts of key non-canonical gospel writings, comprises
a critical edition, with full translations, of all the extant
manuscripts of the Gospel of Mary. In addition, an extended
Introduction discusses the key issues involved in the
interpretation of the text, as well as locating it in its proper
historical context, while a Commentary explicates points of detail.
The gospel has been important in many recent discussions of
non-canonical gospels, of early Christian Gnosticism, and of
discussions of the figure of Mary Magdalene. The present volume
will provide a valuable resource for all future discussions of this
important early Christian text.
Amid Passing Things is a collection of meditations on all the ways
God enters our lives, even when we're unaware. Based on his own
life experiences, Franciscan friar Jeremiah Shryock offers both
struggles and joys that come in a life that's consciously
encountering God-the Holy One all around us-not in some far-off
place, but right here and now in this life, amid passing things.
Gebeur daar vandag nog wonderwerke? Groot wonderwerke, soos genesing
van terminale siekte en kreupelheid?
Isak Burger vertel in God se wonderbaarlike genesingskrag 11
verstommende ware verhale van gewone mense vir wie daar opreg gebid is
en wat bonatuurlik genees is. Saam met die ware verhale van mense wat
persoonlik wonderbaarlike wonderwerke beleef het, praat Isak oor die
aard van wonderwerke, wonderwerke in die Bybel en die mite dat God en
die wetenskap altyd teenoor mekaar gestel moet word.
Dié ware verhale van bonatuurlike genesings sal elkeen wat dit lees,
verseker dat jý as gelowige Hom ook kan vra om die onmoontlike te doen.
Soms sę Hy ja ...
God se wonderbaarlike genesingskrag getuig van die genade, liefde en
genesingskrag van God – Hy wat gister, vandag en tot in ewigheid
dieselfde is.
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.

om sy Joodse ouma te ontmoet en sy eie Joodse wortels na te speur. Hy

Although most natural law ethical theories recognize moral
absolutes, there is not much agreement even among natural law
theorists about how to identify them. The author argues that in
order to understand and determine the morality (or immorality) of a
human action, it must be considered in relation to the organized
system of human practices within which it is performed. In order to
depict this structure and to explain how it bears upon the analysis
of action, the author investigates a number of issues that have
attracted the attention of Thomistic and Aristotelian scholarship.
He examines the nature of practical reason, its relationship with
theoretical reason, the derivation of lower from higher ethical
principles, the incommensurability of human goods, the relationship
between will and intellect, and the principle of double effect.

This is an introduction to African Christian ethics for Christian
colleges and Bible schools. The book is divided into two parts. The
first part deals with the theory of ethics, while the second
discusses practical issues. The issues are grouped into the
following six sections: Socio-Political Issues, Financial Issues,
Marriage Issues, Sexual Issues, Medical Issues, and Religious
Issues. Each section begins with a brief general introduction,
followed by the chapters dealing with specific issues in that area.
Each chapter begins with an introduction, discusses traditional
African thinking on the issue, presents an analysis of relevant
biblical material, and concludes with some recommendations. There
are questions at the end of each chapter for discussion or personal
reflection, often asking students to reflect on how the discussion
in the chapter applies to their ministry situation.
Wanneer ’n mens se lewe vreeslik deurmekaar voel met niks wat reg uitwerk nie, mense wat siek word, vriende wat vreemde dinge doen en węreldwye chaos, het jongmense ’n anker nodig.
As gelowiges is ons grootste lewensanker God en sy Woord. Gewilde skrywer Ewald van Rensburg ken die harte van kinders en jongmense, en hy verstaan hulle vrae en twyfel. Met die opbouende en inspirerende verhale in hierdie 365 Skrifgebaseerde oordenkings wil hy opnuut vir jong tieners hoop bring in ’n wankelende węreld. Die oordenkings fokus op God se ewige liefde en trou, en sy redding deur Jesus Christus deur vanaf Genesis tot Openbaring chronologies deur die Bybel te werk. Elke kort oordenking word gevolg deur ’n kort gebed.
God in elke storie se 365 oordenkings sal elke jongmens se hart opnuut anker in God se trou.
In the 1970s Hennie Keyter was an angry young man, fresh out of military service for the apartheid government of South Africa, unsure of his path in life and deeply uneasy about his faith. When God revealed to him that He had a purpose for him and a calling on his life, at first Hennie was not ready to hear it. When he finally accepted and understood his mission, a flame was lit in his heart that nothing could have extinguished.
But nothing could have prepared him either for the extraordinary spiritual journey he was about to embark on which would take him wherever God wanted him to go: from Malawi, "the warm heart of Africa", to Mozambique at the height of its civil war, where he was sentenced to death and faced a firing squad, from a less than welcoming beginning in Zanzibar, to the United Nations base at Lokichokio on the border between
Kenya and Sudan (where on one trip he discovered that he had a price of US 10 000 on his head). Desiring only to do the will of God and to spread the Gospel, Hennie took up the challenge of taking the Gospel to many of the countries on the African continent and in the Middle East, building up leaders and planting churches in poverty stricken areas, lands devastated by years of conflict and deprivation, and war zones where soldiers seemed to have lost everything, even hope.
Through the bushfire of mass evangelism and his dedicated teams of volunteers, supported by the love and faith of his wife Rita and his children Anton and Mari, in His Call, My All: An African Drumbea, A Missionary's Heartbeat Hennie Keyter looks back at his life in the service of the Lord and forward to continuing His work for as long as God requires it of him.
