"I'm thrilled at the release of his book." - Max Lucado, author of
Anxious for Nothing Life can be difficult. But does God care Don
Moen has learned to lean on God's promises in good times as well as
bad and he says, "You can still trust Him." In his new memoir,
through heartfelt stories reminiscent of Max Lucado, "Papa Don"
weaves a blanket of gentle comfort for people looking for answers.
Don asserts, that God has not forgotten us even when... We face a
job loss We go through an unexpected divorce We receive a bad
report from the doctor We face the death of a loved one As Moen
writes, "God is always working in ways we cannot see." As a beloved
songwriter and worship leader, Don Moen is the author of classic
songs like "Thank you, Lord" and "God Will Make a Way"-the
inspiration for this book. He knows what it means to feel anxious,
worried, and down. And he knows what it means to persevere and see
a new day. If you enjoy the encouraging style of Max Lucado, and if
you find comfort in the books of Gary Chapman, then you will love
reading God Will Make a Way, a new release from Thomas Nelson.
Meet Daniel. A Transformed Man Who Transformed His World. What does
an ancient Jewish prophet have to do with modern America? What, if
anything, can we learn from a man who lived 2,400 years ago as a
captive in the land we now call Iraq? As it turns out, quite a bit.
David and Jason Benham are convinced the biblical example of Daniel
holds the keys to contemporary Christians living victoriously in a
world increasingly hostile to people of faith. Like Daniel, many
believers today find themselves in an unfriendly environment, one
opposed to the God they serve. Yet, like Daniel, they must learn
how to take a stand while serving the people around them. Living
Among Lions is for Christian brothers and sisters who have the
potential to transform their world but find themselves standing in
the shadows wondering how to respond in an unfriendly environment.
Divided into three sections, Living Among Lions covers three
distinct characteristics that made Daniel strong: Conviction,
Commitment, and Courage. Daniel possessed all of these qualities
and lived them out. As a result, God gave him unprecedented favor
and supernatural power. A mere slave living in exile, Daniel
emerged as one of the most powerful men in the known world.
Daniel's conviction, commitment, and courage empowered him not
merely to survive in Babylon but to thrive. He did not conform to
his world; he transformed his world.
Find freedom in an age of anxiety. Let's face it: we are afraid.
Our world is riddled with fear-inducing headlines, financial
meltdowns, family crises, and phobias of every stripe. No wonder
the New York Times now reports one in ten Americans is now taking
antidepressant or anxiety medication. So how do we cope or even
succeed in a world spinning out of control? As someone who has
battled panic attacks and anxiety most of his life, Lance Hahn can
relate. In How to Live in Fear, Lance tackles the pervasive problem
of fear and panic head-on by inviting readers into his world. In
this genuine and practical book, he invites readers into the life
of a pastor living with anxiety disorder. Through humorous personal
stories-like losing it on an airplane or collapsing onstage as he
is about to preach-Lance will win over readers with his
transparency. He will also share the remedies that have helped him
recover and overcome throughout the years. How to Live in Fear is a
public intervention of sorts. We need to talk about this issue,
especially the church-at-large. Millions of people suffer from
anxiety disorders, and the church has done little to make them feel
normal. Many Christians now take medication privately but keep it a
secret under the shame of being viewed as a failure. Lance
willingly bares his soul in order to get the conversation started.
He firmly believes the church should not only recognize the issue,
but also help believers reconcile the guilt of being a Christian
while dealing with dread and anxiety Filled with practical tips and
advice, and full of relevant scriptures, How to Live in Fear gives
readers the tools to relax in the face of fear-real or imagined.
Lance will show readers that while he may still encounter bouts of
panic, he has never let his disorder stop him from living a full
life.
Through our study of the Bible will learn that the goal of the Christian life is to become like Jesus—for our own personal growth and for the sake of others. Every believer needs to ask three big questions: What do I believe? What should I do? And who am I becoming?
In Think, Act, Be Like Jesus, bestselling author and pastor Randy Frazee helps readers grasp the vision of the Christian life and get started on the journey of discipleship. After unfolding the revolutionary dream of Jesus and showing how our lives fit into the big picture of what God is doing in the world, Frazee walks readers through thirty short chapters exploring the ten core beliefs, ten core practices, and ten core virtues that help disciples to think, act, and be more like Jesus Christ.
This compelling new book can be used in conjunction with the 30-week all-church Believe campaign or read separately as an individual study. Either way, readers will deepen their understanding of what it means to not just know the Story of God, but to live it.
Your path to purpose begins with people. Relationships. We know
that we need them, but busy schedules, financial pursuits, and
self-serving agendas often distract us from the people God has
placed in our lives. Overcoming a childhood that lacked true
relationships, CEO David Hoffman successfully broke the rules of a
transaction-based world by founding a real estate company focused
on meeting people where they are. In Relationships over Rules,
David shares his journey and seven principles you can adopt to
build authentic relationships that will help you welcome
opportunities for growth and service, reach your potential
regardless of your past, live with perspective and gratitude, and
fulfill the great plans God has for you. Guided by true stories and
application exercises, watch your life transform as you pour
yourself into those around you. You can achieve lasting success
when you put relationships first.
God has given His followers a unique calling and gifting to be used
by His Spirit to change the world. But so many of us look at
today's problems and slowly become paralyzed and desensitized. Stop
Watching, Start Doing is a practical, Biblical guide to help you
find your spiritual gifting and calling, as well as the place where
God wants to use you to change someone's world.
Seventy percent of the oil America uses each year goes to
transportation. In "Transport Beyond Oil", leading experts show how
to slash that statistic and reduce dependence on fossil fuels. The
authors demonstrate that smarter development and land use
decisions, paired with better transportation systems, can
dramatically lower energy consumption. John Renne calculates how
oil can be saved through a future with more transit-oriented
development. Petra Todorovitch examines the promise of high speed
rail. Peter Newman envisions 100 per cent oil-free cities through
the development of electric-transit, renewable natural gas, and
other sustainable energy sources. Additional topics include funding
transit, freight transport, and non-motorised transportation
systems. Each chapter provides policy prescriptions and their
measurable results. "Transport Beyond Oil" delivers practical
solutions, based on quantitative data. This fact-based approach
offers a new vision of travel that is both transformational and
achievable.

After watching his career as a professional baseball player go down
in flames, Cy Young Award-winner Barry Zito discovered a real
connection with God and a renewed passion for life. In 2007,
pitcher Barry Zito signed a seven-year, $126 million contract with
the San Francisco Giants. At that time, it was the largest contract
ever given to a pitcher. He was at the top of his game, in peak
physical condition, and had the kind of financial security most
people can only dream of. He was also miserable. And it began to
show. Zito's career declined over the next few years until he hit
rock bottom-watching from the bench as his team won the World
Series in 2010. In the months that followed, Zito came face-to-face
with the destructiveness of his own ego-his need to be viewed as
the best. He also came face-to-face with God and with the truth
that he was loved no matter what he achieved. In Curveball, Zito
shares his story with honesty and transparency. The ups and the
downs. The wins and losses. By sharing his experiences as a man who
had everything except happiness, Zito offers readers a path through
adversity and toward a life defined by true success.
La Biblia nos ensena que la meta de la vida cristiana es llegar a
ser semejantes a Jesus, tanto por nuestro propio crecimiento
persona, como por el bien de los demas. La vision de Dios en cuanto
a nuestra vida va mas alla de nosotros mismos, porque es una vision
de comunidad; de vivir juntos. Esto significa que la necesidad de
asemejarnos a Jesus se halla intimamente relacionada con nuestra
manera de pensar, con nuestra forma de actuar hacia los demas y en
ultima instancia, con el tipo de persona en el que nos estamos
convirtiendo. Para comenzar este camino, necesitas captar la vision
y saber hacia donde se dirigen tus pasos. En este libro, el pastor
y autor Randy Frazee te ayudara a desarrollar una vision personal
de tu crecimiento espiritual, y un sencillo plan para dar los
primeros pasos. Despues de presentar la historia de la Biblia y
mostrar donde se ubica nuestra vida en el cuadro general de lo que
Dios esta haciendo en el mundo, Frazee nos ayuda a identificar diez
creencias basicas, diez practicas basicas y diez virtudes basicas
que nos ayudaran a pensar como Jesucristo, actuar como El y
asemejarnos mas a El. Identifica tambien algunas de las barreras y
de las trampas que nos impiden crecer, destacando la necesidad que
tenemos de tomar deliberadamente la decision de caminar en la
gracia, usando los medios que Dios nos da gratuitamente para que
crezcamos y nos fortalezcamos en nuestra fe."
