Growing up in the Midwest in the tumultuous 60s and 70s, the
author witnessed a foundational shift in American love and sex.
While traditional families showed us daily trials with characters
on black and white TV sitcoms, the country swirled with the
confusion of rapidly changing social norms. Relationships became
more experimental, and even those rooted in love for God were
caught up in trying to make this new life fit with what God defines
for us in the Bible.
For more than twenty years she hid her own life of substance
abuse, promiscuity, and same-sex relationships from family,
friends, and colleagues. She married, watched her marriage
disintegrate, and then despaired. As she finally found her
relationship with God, she found both the joy and the peace she had
been seeking. In this quest to share love as God intends and to
know family as he designed, she transparently offers her story so
others struggling with similar life decisions may find their
way.
"For a man's ways are in full view of the Lord - He examines all
his paths." (Proverbs 5:21)
"Does God Exist? Yes, Here Is the Evidence" considers one of
life's most enduring questions. To find an answer, Hendrick Park
follows a trail of evidence that uncovers arguments for the
existence of God in the characteristics of the natural world, in
the moral and religious experiences of people's lives, and in the
knowledge contained in divine revelation.
Presented in three parts corresponding to the types of evidence,
this exploration draws upon the work of a variety of scientists,
philosophers, and theologians. In addition, narratives of Park's
personal encounters with the actions of God in his own life provide
illustrations that amplify the conclusions expressed by authorities
in the various fields of thought.
If you believe in God, but wonder about the reasons for faith
that reside in the natural world, human experience, and divine
revelation, then "Does God Exist? Yes, Here Is the Evidence" will
help to strengthen the foundations of your faith. By asking this
one big question-does God exist-you may find yourself asking and
then seeking answers to other deep questions about your ultimate
destiny with God. "Does God Exist? Yes, Here Is the Evidence" will
serve as your guide along the way.
Power is the point of envy of those who are weak and the pride
of those who are not. Although power can hold command over the
lives of others, it can very much lead to the destruction of the
one controlling it. Author Stephen R. Williams discusses the
pitfalls of abused power without repentance and guidance in his
latest book, "Samson-The Modern-Day America. "
Most people are familiar with the story of Samson, the only man
to hold incredible strength in the Bible. He was born to dedicate a
life of service to the Lord, ordained by God to be a Nazarite, and
destined to judge and rule the Philistines. A similar plot leads us
to the powerful country of America, which was once a nation of
people seeking for a place of worship and service to God. Through
time, both Samson and America acquired power that any entity could
ever want. However, a common weakness leads them both to
destruction.
Discover the cause of a great man's fall and its shocking
similarity to the struggle of a powerful country. Backed with
biblical Scriptures, "Samson-The Modern-Day America "is a book that
holds nothing but the key to a struggling country's redemption.
