This collection of special prayers is a wonderful companion for
parents and caregivers and will help guide children on their
journey to adulthood. It includes verses for every occasion?for
parents to recite as the incarnating soul prepares for birth, for
the baby after birth, and for children of all ages. Also included
are prayers for morning and evening and graces for mealtimes. A
lecture by Rudolf Steiner provides context for the prayers,
offering insight into the greater cosmic relationships in which
individuals are immersed before birth, during life, and after
death.
A call to Christians to be caught up in the powerful whirlwind that
is the gospel of grace Christianity is based on the foundation of
the good news of the gospel. Yet how many Christians truly find
their identity there? How many are thriving in a community clinging
to the gospel? How many forget about the wondrous glory of Jesus?
J. A. Medders is on a mission to help Christians remember that the
power that raised Jesus from the dead is also the power for our
everyday life in Christ. Yet living a gospel-centered life does not
always come easily. The biblical meditations in Gospel Formed help
to kindle, or rekindle, the passion to live a grace-addicted,
truth-filled, Jesus-exalting life by constantly driving the reader
back to the power of the cross and the empty tomb. Funny, punchy,
and theologically accessible, readers will be encouraged,
challenged, and ultimately reoriented to the true North of
Christianity--Christ Himself.
