Böcker av Clark Cothern

A fresh approach to an old topic is this unique treatise on Spirit-Controlled Living. Focusing on impulses -- those pesky little "triggers" of idea and energy that may lead even well-disciplined people toward brilliant or regretted actions -- Clark Cothern''s third book provides readers more than "white knuckling" techniques for self-control. His step-by-step biblical model of impulse management shows how to use spontaneous anger, overspending, overeating, misplaced sexual desires, and other impulses to identify weak areas and partner with God toward achieving peace and freedom.

Have you experienced those times in life when you''re zooming along on a course bound for your destination when suddenly, CLANK-some outside force beyond your control (be it accident, event, circumstance, or someone else''s decision or action) changes your direction? Then off you go down another road, one you wouldn''t otherwise have traveled. Maybe you''re in the midst of a detour right now. The road is rough. The scenery is strange. The landmarks are unfamiliar. Clark Cothern invites you to travel with him on a few of his detours and discover a renewed sense of purpose. Yes, He is Lord of those smooth, wide interstates in your life. But He is also Lord of the detours.

What character qualities can be found in every great father? Love, patience, gentleness, faithfulness, self-control-the fruits of the Spirit, in fact! And the One who produces that fruit in us is the One who is At the Heart of Every Great Father. Clark Cothern shows dads how to be truly great fathers-no matter how old their kids are-by allowing the Father to cultivate His character in them. Powerful, straight-talking stories in each chapter are guaranteed to grab men''s attention, entertain them, and inspire them to be better dads by actually showing-not just describing-great fathering in action.
