There are many reasons to have fear, but God can conquer them all!
Hoe en wat ons dink, het ’n geweldige invloed op ons verstandelike,
emosionele en selfs fisieke welsyn. Om die waarheid te sê, ons denke
kan ons beperk tot dit wat ons glo ons kan doen, of dit kan ons dinge
laat ervaar waarvan ons nooit kon droom nie. Wanneer ons ’n denkwyse
kies wat ons vermoëns verruim, sal ons groter intellektuele
satisfaksie, emosionele beheer en fisieke gesondheid ervaar. Die vraag
is net: Hoe?
Dr. Leaf wys lesers hoe om hierdie kragtige hulpmiddels te kombineer om beter te vaar op die gebied van geheue, leer, intellektuele prestasie, werkprestasie, fisieke prestasie, verhoudings, emosionele gesondheid en – die belangrikste van alles – ’n lewe vol sin en betekenis te ervaar.
Why are so many 20- and 30-something Christians disappearing from the church?They are told how much the church wants young people, yet there is growing suspicion among young believers about who is in and who is out of the scope of Christian orthodoxy. Through this suspicion, a rift between the generations has emerged. In the face of frustration, of being cut out because they don't seem to fit, young believers often take their gifts and leave the church.This book helps those who feel displaced by this generational collision to find a sense of place and welcome with a church that is still becoming all that God wants it to be. If you are a young person who wonders if there is a place in the church for someone like you, or if you want to know if your own church can be the kind of body in which young people are welcome, A Seat at the Table will give you a new personal and kingdom perspective. Embrace the challenge to re-imagine your relationship with the church in light of this generational collision, not seeing it as an unredeemable rift, but as an opportunity to give and receive hospitality.

There are a lot of personality and intelligence tests out there designed to label you and put you in a particular box. But Dr. Caroline Leaf says there's much more to you than a personality profile can capture. In fact, you cannot be categorized! In this fascinating book, she takes readers through seven steps to rediscover and unlock their unique design--the brilliantly original way each person thinks, feels, relates, and makes choices--freeing them from comparison, envy, and jealousy, which destroy brain tissue. Readers learn to be aware of what's going on in their own minds and bodies, to lean in to their own experience rather than trying to forcefully change it, and to redefine what success means to them. Released from the suffocating box of expectations, they'll embrace their true identity and develop a clear sense of divine purpose in their lives. Knowing and understanding our identity empowers our choices. Unlocking one's you quotient is not optional--it is essential.

On the heels of his New York Times bestseller "Mind Siege," Tim LaHaye, with Ed Hindson, equip readers with armor to guard their hearts and draw nearer to God. Some chapter titles include: The Battle for the Heart The Ultimate Deception The Erosion of Trust A Prescription for the Heart Finding God's Heart |
