Hebrews 11:6 says, "But without faith it is impossible to please
him [God]. . . ." If God demands that we have faith when it is
impossible for us to have faith, then we have a right to challenge
His justice. But since He places within our hands the means whereby
faith can be produced, then we must take responsibility for whether
or not we have faith.
The Bible Faith Study Course takes you through the Word of God
to teach you how faith is produced and how to turn your faith loose
in every area of your life. These principles will enable you to
please God and live victoriously in this life!
Chapter titles include:
-- What Faith Is
-- How Faith Comes
-- How To Turn Your Faith Loose
-- What It Means To Believe With the Heart
-- Six Big Hindrances to Faith
-- The God-Kind of Faith
Fear is a giant that shouts at us from the battle lines of our
lives--a giant adorned in seemingly impenetrable armor. But God has
given us supernatural weapons that even fear cannot outrun. Sharing
stories from her own life and others', author and speaker Krissy
Nelson uncovers a powerful truth: As children of God we are made to
live fearlessly. Concealed within the familiar story of David and
Goliath are three supernatural weapons David used to slay the giant
of fear. These weapons are hidden in plain sight for us to
discover--and also to learn to use, because what God gave David, he
also gives us. Nelson dives into Scripture and explores how to
position yourself to see fear for what it is: a giant that dares
defy the army of the living God. It is time to run boldly toward
freedom. You are equipped for battle, and you are not alone--God
will fight for you!
Facing obstacles? Feeling stuck? Transitioning into a new season of life? Let this seasoned broadcast journalist-turned-preacher help you find your poise when your red-light moments arrive.
From childhood, we are trained to associate the color red with negative and even dangerous situations. To grow spiritually, however, pastor Elictia Hart insists we must redefine our responses to red situations. With highlights from her glamorous career as a broadcast journalist for FOX, ESPN, and Entertainment Tonight, along with a balanced look into the lives of beloved heroes in the Bible, Elictia Hart explains how our "red moments" can become "green lights" for trusting God and embracing our divine destiny.
Every television reporter knows when the red light is on, you are on. Red means go. Playing off this insider phrase, Elictia Hart-now a wife, mother, and pastorpassionately shares how God transformed the red flags in her life into victorious banners for personal growth, a deeper faith, and a richer sense of her purpose for his
kingdom.
For a generation, the Catholic Church in Brazil has enjoyed
international renown as one of the most progressive social forces
in Latin America. The Church's creation of Christian Base
Communities (CEBs), groups of Catholics who learn to read the Bible
as a call for social justice, has been widely hailed. Still, in
recent years it has become increasingly clear that the CEBs are
lagging far behind the explosive growth of Brazil's two other major
national religious movements--Pentacostalism and Afro-Brazilian
"Umbanda."
On the basis of his extensive fieldwork in Rio di Janeiro,
including detailed life histories of women, blacks, youths, and the
marginal poor, John Burdick offers the first in-depth explanation
of why the radical Catholic Church is losing, and Pentecostalism
and "Umbanda" winning, the battle for souls in urban Brazil.
Pentecostalism is one of the most significant modern movements in
global Christianity today. A mixture of ecstatic expression and
earnest piety, metaphysical nuance and embodied spirituality, it is
far more than the stereotype of a supernatural sideshow. In this
presumably secular era, Pentecostalism continues to grow, adapting
to a diverse religious marketplace and becoming more racially and
ethnically diverse. Originally an American phenomenon, it is now a
globe-spanning religion. In this book, Arlene M. Sanchez Walsh
provides a thematic overview of Pentecostalism in America, covering
Pentecostal faith and practices, gender and sexuality, race and
ethnicity, trends and offshoots, and the future of American
Pentecostalism. She also considers Pentecostalism's spiritual
lineages, examining colorful leaders, ordinary adherents, and
prominent outliers, as well as its deep roots in American popular
culture. She examines Pentecostalism as a narrative performance,
aiming to explain what Pentecostalism is through the experiences
and stories of its adherents. Sanchez Walsh treats this Christian
movement with the critical eye it has often lacked, and places it
in context within the larger narrative of American religious
history. An indispensable introduction to Pentecostalism, rich with
insights for experienced readers, Pentecostals in America is an
essential study of a vibrant religious movement.
I make no apology for the Bible I make no apology for the way
people shout and praise God in these meetings. I make no apology
for the loud noise of hundreds of people clapping their hands in
praise People shout, sing, and dance in the Spirit in these
meetings. I will not apologize for the way children of God who
attend our meetings talk in tongues and prophesy I have no apology
for God's Word I cannot apologize for what God declared we ought to
be receiving and enjoying today Asa A. Allen was a controversial
evangelist with a Pentecostal healing and deliverance ministry. He
was associated with the "Voice of Healing" movement founded by
Gordon Lindsay. Allen became one of the first to develop a national
television ministry. His television programs frequently included
excerpts from his "healing line" ministry.
How are spiritual power and self-transformation cultivated in
street ministries? In Addicted to Christ, Helena Hansen provides an
in-depth analysis of Pentecostal ministries in Puerto Rico that
were founded and run by self-identified "ex-addicts," ministries
that are also widespread in poor Black and Latino neighborhoods in
the U.S. mainland. Richly ethnographic, the book harmoniously melds
Hansen's dual expertise in cultural anthropology and psychiatry.
Through the stories of ministry converts, she examines key elements
of Pentecostalism: mysticism, ascetic practice, and the idea of
other-worldliness. She then reconstructs the ministries' strategies
of spiritual victory over addiction: transformation techniques to
build spiritual strength and authority through pain and discipline;
cultivation of alternative masculinities based on male converts'
reclamation of domestic space; and radical rupture from a
post-industrial "culture of disposability." By contrasting the
ministries' logic of addiction with that of biomedicine, Hansen
rethinks roads to recovery, discovering unexpected convergences
with biomedicine while revealing the allure of street corner
ministries.
Experiencing Father's Embrace is an excellent resource for anyone
interested in growing or ministering in the Father's love message.
The author's style of writing makes this book easy to read, yet it
is one of the most thorough and profoundly impacting books
available on knowing God as a Father.
