If man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that
proceeds from the mouth of God, then Johann Starck has provided a
bread basket for the Church with his Prayer-Book. This book of
daily prayers, hymns, poetry, and devotions presents in every
syllable the Bread that has come down from heaven. Written as daily
nourishment in the Word of God, this book also lends itself to
meditation and prayer during many of life's peculiar situations.
Professor Dau describes Starck well when he writes, "Starck loved
nothing sensational, nothing that was for mere display in matters
of religion. Christian life, to him, was real and earnest, to be
conducted in a sober mind. He was always bent on its practical
applications to every pursuit and action, and on enlisting really
the whole of a person in the service of the Master." When
Christians nourish their souls daily with meditation upon the Word
of God and the Sacraments, faith is strengthened. The Bread of Life
fills hearts and minds, and Christ finds expression in the world
through Christian life and speech. A contemporary pastor said it
best when he said "Starck gives Christians a daily helping of
meditation in God's Word, and leads them to satisfaction in their
vocational tasks."
With his signature engaging style and straightforward wisdom, Craig
Groeschel--New York Times bestselling author, pastor, and
counselor--delivers a powerful guide to breaking free of destructive
thought patterns and renewing our minds for a bright and purposeful
future.
Are your thoughts out of control--just like your life? Do you long to
break free from the spiral of destructive thinking? Let God's truth
become your battle plan to win the war in your mind!
We've all tried to think our way out of bad habits and unhealthy
thought patterns, only to find ourselves stuck with an out-of-control
mind and off-track daily life. Pastor and New York Times bestselling
author Craig Groeschel understands deeply this daily battle against
self-doubt and negative thinking, and in this powerful new book he
reveals the strategies he's discovered to change your mind and your
life for the long-term.
Drawing upon Scripture and the latest findings of brain science,
Groeschel lays out four practical and transformative strategies that
will enable you to change your thinking and transform your life:
- Remove the lies you believe and replace them with truth
- Rewire your brain and learn exercises to renew your mind
- Reframe your mind and restore a healthy perspective
- Revive your soul through prayer and praise and reclaim your
life
God has something better for your life than your old ways of thinking.
It's time to change your mind so God can change your life.
Jacob Hochstetler is a peace-loving Amish settler on the
Pennsylvania frontier when Native American warriors, goaded on by
the hostilities of the French and Indian War, attack his family one
September night in 1757. Taken captive by the warriors and grieving
for the family members just killed, Jacob finds his beliefs about
love and nonresistance severely tested. Jacob endures a hard winter
as a prisoner in an Indian longhouse. Meanwhile, some members of
his congregation the first Amish settlement in America move away
for fear of further attacks. Based on actual events, Jacob's Choice
describes how one man's commitment to pacifism leads to a season of
captivity, a complicated romance, an unrelenting search for missing
family members, and an astounding act of forgiveness and
reconciliation. This expanded edition of Jacob's Choice includes
maps, photographs, family tree charts, and other historical
documents to help readers enter the story and era of the
Hochstetler family.

When a Christian prays, does it make any difference? Does it change
anything? Though our prayers do not change God's mind, He ordains
prayer as a means to accomplish His will. We can be confident that
prayer does change things—including our own hearts.
In Does Prayer Change Things?, Dr. R.C. Sproul argues that prayer has a
vital place in the life of the Christian and calls us to come before
God's presence with joy and hope. Dr. Sproul shares practical wisdom
and helps us understand the purpose, pattern, practice, prohibitions,
and power of prayer.
