Difficult situations occur every day, all over the world. They can
occur in our homes, on our jobs, and even in our churches. As
Christians, we must face these challenges and understand their
roots in the spiritual world. We must also answer the call to
witness Christ in everyone, especially those who cause us
difficulty and distress. In "More than Conquerors II: They That Are
with Us: A Believer's Guide to Overcoming Opposition and Ethical
Dilemmas, " minister and author Thomas Randolph Wood Jr. shows
through real-world examples how true victory over situations,
circumstances, and difficult persons is available through Jesus
Christ.The helpful, encouraging lessons of "They That Are with Us"
offer answers to the hard and sometimes overwhelming challenges we
encounter in our lives today. Perhaps we struggle with money, with
relationships, with the future, or with faith; by sharing our
stories and sharing the word of God, we can learn to honestly
support each other in our walks both inside and outside the
physical structures of our church buildings. Through this testimony
and witness, we experience the true will of God for our
congregations, for ourselves, and for our world.

God has been revealing to me that writing is an effective way for
me to share my heart with Him; I feel encouraged to use it as a way
to share his love and my faith in him with you. I have spent the
majority of my life searching desperately for the missing piece to
complete my life puzzle. The discovery of my life has been
made....Jesus. From the bottom of my heart to the top of the
highest mountain, I would like to proclaim to everyone who is
alive, ?God loves you God wants to be close to you You are created
for HIM He his waiting with open arms and unending love for you God
forgives you We can approach God with confidence in our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ. The idea of this book grew from a seed planted
in my heart on November 9, 2012. While reading II Kings, God
revealed to me an important role in my Christian life. God tells of
King Hezekiah, who was aware of God's presence in past events, had
a personal relationship with God via a powerful prayer life, and
trusted in God's help for current events in his life. One thing he
lacked was his concern for future generations. God convicted my
heart that I was lacking this as well. Not sure what to do, I
prayed that God would show me. A book. Since I will not be around
forever to share my faith with future generations, I can share my
faith through a book. This is the first and possibly the only book
I will write; I will leave that up to God. This is a collection of
prayers and writings regarding some truths God has revealed to me.
An invitation to you...to draw near, speak to God about what is on
your heart, then be still, and know that He is God. This is the
sacrifice God wants from us. He wants us to share our heart with
him and trust him and his word to guide our lives. Talk to God
about anything you would a family member, best friend, co-worker,
etc. God wants us to come to Him first.

Why have multiple mega-church leaders-Ted Haggard and Bishop Eddie
Long, for example-committed acts of sexual misconduct? This book
discusses the reasons in depth and examines how these acts are
impacting the future of megachurches. Mega-churches-churches with
congregations that number in the thousands of worshippers-are
growing in popularity in America and around the world. Shockingly,
a growing number of megachurch leaders have committed acts of
sexual misconduct. While these scandalous crimes have received much
attention through the media, literature that examines the topic in
detail has been lacking. This book examines the various aspects of
sexual misconduct by megachurch leaders, providing a comprehensive
review of the topic that discusses the direct and indirect reasons
for these crimes. The book provides unbiased, factual coverage of
megachurch sexual abuse cases, covering issues surrounding the
victims in specific cases, the role of the church, and notable
ministers, such as Ted Haggard of New Life Church, Colorado
Springs, CO; Bishop Eddie Long of New Birth Missionary Baptist
Church, Lithonia, GA; and Joe Barron of Prestonwood Baptist Church,
Dallas, TX. The author also discusses how these incidences have
impacted societal perceptions of religion, and large churches, and
religious organizations, and provides recommendations to curb
future cases of sexual abuse within megachurches.
Have you ever heard of something that peaked your interest? That's
how this book came about. Daniel 10:1. One word stood out for me
and that was the word "but." I stopped reading the paragraphs and
began to read the word. The Bible tells us to study to show thyself
approved a workman that needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing
the word of truth, discerning God's will for your live. This on
verse took me on a journey that enlightened me and empowered me.
Take a walk through the pages. I promise you it will peak your
interest.
Poems, prn (Latin: pro re nata) is a compilation of recent poems by
Larry Troxel. He separated them into two groupings; the first
consisting of poems that are more about the lighter and serious
sides of life, and the sweet feelings and inspiration that evolve
there from. From those selections his associate James Atkinson, an
accomplished musician and composer, has created and recorded
beautiful songs on a CD Music and Poetry From the Heart, with poems
such as My Soul, The Flowers Say, Touchings, and Waves. The second
group is poems that paint, in the brightest colors, his
religiosity, principals of faith, devotion and church. It is his
hope that some may find what he has written to be interesting,
agreeable, and maybe even inspiring, prn.
This book began ... as a collection of poems and tributes, shared
with friends and family, that I finally had the courage to
complete. I tend to be garrulous in person, but brief in writing.
Hence, this is a small book of the biggest ideas I've had -- at
least big enough to make note of them in verse. These pieces do not
rhyme. My goal is the expression of a pure and often fleeting
thought; one that touches the heart and reverberates truth in some
form. The book can be read in any sequence: OUTSIDE... Love,
commitment and romance INSIDE... Personal enlightenment and
challenge AROUND... Time and holidays ABOVE... Tributes and
memorials BEYOND... Spiritual and human development May you find
here an insight that echoes along your pathway. ...And let me know
if you run across my moonglasses Kevin Gardner [email protected]
In this mundane, material, sensory world in which pain, sadness,
disappointments, failures, discontent, depression, and disharmony
are encountered daily, we can now embark, in this Book, on a
journey through which we are able to shape our own destiny and
master our own lives in order to avoid suffering, to gain inner
Peace, to become compassionate, wise, happy and eventually
enlightened human beings, by the grace of God.
