Are you sick and tired of the Enemy who plans to destroy your
life, your family, relationships, your health, and your dreams,
through fear, doubt, unbelief, and the insecurities brought on by
rejection and unworthiness? The thief comes to kill, steal, and
destroy and rob you of the promises of God given to his redeemed.
Jesus died on Calvary to forgive our sins and to make and bring
peace to us, and he took our punishment so that we could be healed
and receive every blessing in heavenly places.
In this book, you will receive biblical principles that, when
studied and applied, will bring the Word of God to life for you.
You will learn to walk by faith and talk faith in every area of
life. You will see that healing is God's will for his people. You
will see how the Enemy lays traps of unbelief to hinder you. You
will see that Jesus defeated Satan, and his power is broken.
My prayer for you is that you will receive understanding and
that the Lord Jesus will be glorified in your life in every area.
Having faith is having confidence that God will do what he promises
he will do. God never changes; his word remains the same. We are
changed from glory to glory
Eric Hanson claimed to follow the most remarkable person in
history, yet his life was as exciting as sugarless gum. Confronted
with a disparity between a promise of abundant life and what he saw
in life surrounding him, he left everything behind for a year to
travel around the globe through the world's poorest countries.
Refugees, hermits, prostitutes, mobs, secret police, monks, and
a motorcycle gang. A dangerous journey introduces us to a fresh
side of faith, God, and a fulfilling life.
"My eyes were opening to whole new levels of pain and poverty,
darkness and despair, I saw new and altogether beautiful things
become real to me. The Bible is full of God's promises of healing
and restoration, but those words always seemed plastic and hollow
to me. For the first time in my life, I began to see God move and
heal-to truly touch people in the midst of unbearable pain. And in
that, God's message of restoration suddenly took on a significant,
real-life meaning to me.
As I watched Jose's transformation, my heart was ripped from my
chest and squeezed until my muted soul could hear God whispering
that this-real change, real love, not contrite phrases in an old
book-was the heart of God for His people."
"Eric has written a powerful, endearing account of his
adventures around the world. But this isn't a book that will leave
you feeling helpless. It will give you faith in your own story and
hope for living a more meaningful one." -Jeff Goins, author,
Wrecked: When a Broken World Slams into Your Comfortable Life
This book is an ambitious blue print of ideas to unite all the
people of the world according to the divine teachings of peace and
Tawhid (an Arabic word for "unity" and "universalism"). The divine
teachings of peace and Tawhid are universal teachings and practices
of Islam. They apply to all people of all religions, in all
compartments of their lives. The main purpose of the divine
teachings of peace and Tawhid is to establish "the all truth, one
reality and purity of the universe." These teachings do not only
combine the true teaching of all the books and prophets of God, but
they also combine all the true teachings of all the compartments of
our lives, secular and religious. This book is written in the
Islamic context, and extols and persuades the Muslim society to
return to the basis and cornerstone of Islam-that is, to establish
peace and unity and one brotherhood. Furthermore, this book is not
only for the Muslims since peace and unity is a universal concept.
Every person-whether Christian, Jew, Hindu, Buddhist, or from any
other religion-is looking for peace, and what better way to attain
this peace than by uniting and unifying all people of all religions
of the world.
Life can sometimes lead us to unexpected places, to only leave
us broken, desperate, and hurting. Heather Gillis and her husband,
Mac, waited in anticipation for the birth of their third child.
Like many Christian couples, their dreams and expectations in
marriage, parenthood, and daily life developed differently than
they'd planned, and left them grieving a life that would never be.
Their journey gives insight into a new normal and uncovers the
stepping stones of the healing process. In their process, they
re-discovered God's abounding love through their experiences of
joy, heartbreak, and purpose. Heather reaches out to parents around
the globe to speak openly about being a wife, mother, friend,
relative, or stranger during life-changing trials and devastating
struggles. In God's love, she has found beauty in the midst of
pain, as well as peace in His presence on Earth while waiting for
heaven.
This is the story of one man's burden for the city he lived in
and loved. Detroit, once America's leading industrial city, falls
with political corruption, racial intolerance, and its auto
industry's refusal to change. Bob spearheads the partnering of his
New York City church with an inner-city Detroit church, trusting
God's power to take one small step in revitalizing Detroit. This
book may challenge you to trust God to raise you from your own
struggles. "Bob Chancia has accurately and passionately
communicated the issues facing Detroit as well as the hope for
Detroit-the Gospel of Jesus Christ ... because Jesus is the only
hope for Detroit and all men. Bob, a native New Yorker, loves
Detroit as much as we native Detroiters. I couldn't put this book
down A must read " -Diane Denaro Frank, founder and executive
director, AngelHouse.org "Here is the account of a miracle touching
two great cities. New York's Calvary Baptist Church, by joining
with Detroit's Citadel of Faith Covenant Church, has displayed the
power and presence of Christ in helping bring a once great city
back to vibrant life. Bob Chancia has beautifully and forcefully
recounted this miracle that touches two cities." -Rev. James O.
Rose, pastor emeritus, Calvary Baptist Church, New York City;
Dallas Theological Seminary board of directors for nineteen
years.
The Vita Christi of the fourteenth century Carthusian, Ludolph of
Saxony, is the most comprehensive series of meditations on the life
of Christ of the late Middle Ages. Ludolph assembles a wealth of
commentary from the fathers of the church and the great medieval
spiritual writers and weaves them into a seamless exposition on the
Gospel. This is the first English translation of this classic work,
and it also is the first edition in any language to identify the
thousands of sources used by Ludolph, both those he quotes and the
many he cites without attribution. It will be of great interest to
students of Christian spirituality, but it is intended, as was the
original text, for ordinary believers seeking to enter more deeply
into the meaning of the life of Christ. When complete, there will
be 4 volumes.
Have you ever asked how God's knowledge of the future impacts your
life today? Frustrating God offers a challenge to the assumptions
of open theism and provides answers that are both refreshing and
new. Theologians and laypeople alike have struggled with the extent
God's knowledge, the limitations of human free will, and the
practical implications these ideas have for everyday life. Why
doesn't God do something about all the evil in the world? Have you
ever tried to answer the question about God's goodness in light of
the fact that people He created will be lost for all eternity? How
can God answer prayers if He does not know and may not be able to
anticipate the future consequences of those answers? How do we
resolve the apparent conflict between human freedom and God's
overwhelming power? You can find the answer to these and many more
questions in Frustrating God. In this challenge to the theological
view of open theism, Pastor Luis Scott offers a radically new
alternative to the seemingly tense relationship between God's
foreknowledge and human free will. This deepened understanding of
God's nature can enhance your perception of a God so magnificent
that the only word to describe our struggle to know Him is
frustrating. In Frustrating God you will begin a journey to a
deeper knowledge of the mysterious God of the Bible-the God who
baffles us, but loves us enough to lay the penalty of sin upon His
beloved Son.
Are you living your life in a state of joy, gratitude and
thankfulness? Do you laugh a lot and feel like it's Christmas every
day? If not, then this book is meant for you.Many of us instead
live our lives feeling depressed, anxious and unhappy. We race home
from work only to be overloaded with even more work around the
house. Rather than enjoying our lives and interpersonal
relationships, we tend to lose sight of what's really important and
instead focus on acquiring material things and the numerous work
tasks needed to get done. We may have forgotten how to play and
enjoy life. The more debt we take on, the more pressured our lives
become as well. Some of us are also angry inside, holding onto
grudges and feeling like we have been victimized by another's
thoughts, words and deeds. Feeling victimized, we may then lash out
in anger at the people closest to us and do harm to those we love.
Harnessing the Force both simplifies the wellness concepts and
expands upon the spiritual content of my previous book, The Force
is With You Always It is loaded with wit and wisdom about living
life in harmony with your true inner self. It connects you to your
soul within in order to make beautiful soul music without. It will
help you turn enemies into friends while living in harmony with
nature and Spirit. Learning to live a healthy life in harmony with
Spirit is well worth the pursuit.
The world as we know it is about to change. Whether it is the
Mayans' 2012 or the Christians' final days, humans can feel a major
change coming to the world they now inhabit. Blood Quantum offers
the hope of change of mind and soul over that of physical
extermination. A world where the veil between the spirit world and
the physical world once again is opened so that both can be quided
by the Great Mystery of life, in a peaceful and harmonious way.
