This book is a must read for every Christian. It is God calling us back to the place He created us to be. Some of us seem to be running from the place that God has for us. It is in the place of surrender that we find the life that God intended us to have. We are called to make an impact in this generation as we allow God to lead our lives. Some of us keep striving to do it when our own, doing it our own way. When will you stop pursuing your own life and allow God show you the life that He has chosen for you? Oh Jonah generation, stop running and return to the place He is calling you to!

In Big American Problems, Sam Wittke examines the link between various types of politics and the spiritual realities of God and human sinfulness, as laid out in the scriptures. In an increasing atmosphere of division, enmity, confusion, and authoritarianism in our American cultural moment, it is critical for Christians to think through these things through a realistic, biblical framework. Big American Problems hopes to tell the truth about our unprecedented American moment comprehensively and in a simplified manner. The conclusions herein are only meant to be weighed in proportion to the more immense matter of the Gospel, but they do provide a startling glimpse into what happens when the Gospel is rejected by a society.
It is important to make the necessary adjustments as we reach the different levels of our Christian journey. If you are on the wrong diet you cannot operate on the level God would have you to be. Your knowledge of who God is and His works and power has to operate on the different levels of your faith, as we grow so shall our faith and power in God.

Losing a loved one is emotionally draining. Add to that the nagging questions of how you will cope with that loss and move forward with your life can sometimes leave you in a state of constant agitation. I found myself in this situation on multiple occasions. I needed to find a way to cope that did not involve a significant financial investment or the consumption of chemical stimulants. Exercising and performing other activities was my answer. They helped clear my mind. They also went a long way in helping to heal the void that had crept into my life. This guide shares some of the activities I engaged in that became my bridge over troubled waters. They helped ease my mind and slowly became the wind beneath my wings.
When at last we realize our predicament, that we have engaged ourselves in a lost-cause war with God, it is good news to discover that he has taken it upon himself to create a truce and to effect reconciliation with us. But then a little later it should also occur to us that the heavenly Father had a purpose for making that peace, even at such a great cost. So our search must take us deeper and higher than just being good boys and girls in a dying world. We will come to realize that we have been called to more than just 'Genesis 3 Christianity'. And so the quest begins!

Once upon a time in Alabama, a beautiful princess called Noel, was born on Christmas Eve.

Early on in my study, it became evident that Mark was not simply recounting the healing incidents that Jesus had performed. Mark looked at the healing miracles of Jesus through the lens of God's perspective. What was significant to Mark and what captured my spiritual imagination was his interpretation of the healing miracles. He made it clear to the readers that Jesus clearly understood the redemptive implications of his mission as the Jewish healer-redeemer. Jesus fully embraced his Messianic mission to bring salvation to the Hebrew people. He would become the perfect sacrificial lamb of God to bring about the restoration of fallen humanity. In and through him, God's good creation would be restored.Through Jesus' sacrificial death, God would create a new covenant of grace, which could be acceptable to both Jews and Gentiles. The healing miracles demonstrated the defeat of sin, sickness, death, and the evil influence of Satan's demonic forces. Jesus did this by not only removing our sins but also taking the consequences of our sins upon himself, nailing them to the cross. All of Jesus' healing miracles were interpreted similarly. I found Mark's gospel both inspiring and informative, allowing me to see the heart, love, compassion, and mind of God for His creation.
Elisa Rendon gave her heart to Jesus as a teenager.But events at her congregation shook her so much that she was driven away from the Lord. For years, she lived a life of sin by following her desires-even enjoying an illicit relationship as a married mother.She also became involved in Santeria, which includes being the conduit of and serving spirits of the dead. This practice is commonly found in Hispanic countries and dates from the time the African people were brought to the New World. While the author may have lost her way, she eventually found her way back to Jesus. She shares her personal struggle of redemption in this book for anyone looking to ignite their faith.There is no such thing as a perfect Christian. There are redeemed Christians. It is hugely important to understand this difference. We all make mistakes. We do and say things that are harmful to ourselves and others and go astray from the path that God has prepared for us. But we all have a chance to find our way back.
"e;I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. ...As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing."e; John 15:1, 4-5 NKJVLike the unhappy caterpillar in I AM A WORM Or Am I? we often try to change ourselves but fail. We can become downtrodden when we don't see lasting results. It is only when we turn to God and put our trust in Him, that we experience true change. Follow along in this delightful allegory as the caterpillar meets a butterfly who offers hope for a new life. Drawn to a mysterious vineyard, he learns the challenging lessons of faith. The vinedresser tends the branches in this special vineyard and brings about glorious change, for an abundant harvest!
So much of our lives is influenced by how we see God. For author Patty Howard, these words began a two-and-a-half-year journey of listening to God every morning with the expectation that He would speak. When God speaks, He meets us where we are and shows us who we are. Sometimes we are invited to share what we hear. With social media as her pulpit and her friends as her congregation, Howard shared what God had given her every day. The Holy Spirit did the rest.In Meet Me in the Morning, she has gathered those meditations, originally posted on social media, and compiled them into a devotional, mostly in the order and in the form they originally appeared. May these daily meditations encourage you, inspire you, convict you, and convince you that God sees you, knows you, and loves you beyond measure.This daily devotional shows how scripture applies to real life, in real time, and invites you to carry the ideas and insights beyond the page and into your daily life.
"e;What they all know can force change, or the flesh will agonize in pain. Chains are broken when you make up your mind to think higher than the lowness of mind of the people that think they know the real you. Love learning the truth, grow in wisdom and lead the way to freedom for the next generation."e;JOYCE LANG-SIMPSON

This book is expressively about what I had encountered in my personal and family life throughout the years. The contents written are real life experiences. Names in some instances are not used in order to be respectful and protective of individuals who is part and parcel of what I have written. The core of the writing is to give honour and glory to God for His mercies and to highlight that He never turned His back on us no matter how messed up we may be or have been in life. It is always of healing from years of pain and suffering.
Jesus said: I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. (Jn. 13:15, 17 ESV)A common question among Christians faced with making decisions is, "e;What would Jesus do?"e; It expresses our desire to do what is in accord with the will of the Lord. But another, less-speculative question can also be asked regarding our life situations, namely, "e;What DID Jesus do?"e; What actions did He take? What choices did He make in his life? What did He do with His time here on earth? How did He choose to live? That is the focus of this book then: looking at His activities and deeds so that we who seek to follow Jesus can see clear examples of righteous behavior which He modeled for our benefit and which can be incorporated into our lives. In doing this, we will be more able to pursue Christlikeness in very practical ways.
