Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church... Ephesians 5:25 Joshua and Gayle were the model couple. After years of dating, Joshua romantically popped the big question to his college sweetheart. It was the proposal Gayle had always dreamed of. It didn't matter that Joshua had been drafted by the NFL and was a part of the prominent Maxwell family of Lewiston Springs; Gayle desired to be his wife simply because she loved him. Their relationship was a solid rock, storybook romance ... that was until Joshua's trust for his wife turned to suspicion. As Gayle struggles to piece together the broken fragments of her life, she tries to maintain her dignity around the high class people she once called friends. The vows she made to Joshua before God on their wedding day were true, but is love enough to keep their marriage out of divorce court? A Test of Faith is the third book in The True Love Novellas series.

The church was birthed in an outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, where the supernatural, including miracles, signs, and wonders, was established as the norm. This means that all believers can have powerful divine encounters with the Spirit, not as isolated events but as a lifestyle in which: -The supernatural realm is your greatest reality. -Jesus becomes real in you. -You are commissioned to demonstrate God's miraculous power. -You have a profound desire for more of God's presence. To regularly experience divine encounters, we must have a strong understanding of who the Holy Spirit is. Apostle Guillermo Maldonado clears up doubts and false concepts about the Holy Spirit, describing His nature and role in the world and providing striking testimonies of people who have been transformed by their encounters with the Spirit. God desires to manifest Himself to each of us--as Father, Provider, Miracle Worker, Healer, and Deliverer. He wants us to impact families, communities, and even nations for Christ. Entering into an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit will fill you with God's love--and give you a compassionate heart for the hurting world around you. You don't have to be a spiritual leader, and you don't have to be perfect, to experience the presence of God and continue the works of Jesus on earth. All you need is a powerful divine encounter with the Holy Spirit.

El autor de Radical, un éxito de ventas del New York Times, desafía a los cristianos a liberarse del evangelio actual que prostituye a Jesús por comodidad, poder, prosperidad y política, y a buscar por completo el verdadero evangelio que exalta a Jesús por encima de todo. El pastor David Platt cree que nos hemos vuelto muy buenos siguiendo un evangelio realmente malo, uno que adora las ideas estadounidenses sobre la verdad bíblica. Es hora de que los cristianos desilusionados, desalentados y divididos, y la próxima generación, sigan a Jesús hacia un futuro diferente. Tenemos que elegir: un evangelio estadounidense o el evangelio bíblico. División mundana o unidad de otro mundo. Compromiso con los ídolos de nuestro país o compromiso con el llamado de Dios en nuestras vidas. En No te detengas, Platt alienta a los seguidores de Jesús a tomar los riesgos necesarios y encontrar una recompensa inimaginable mientras: Trabajamos a favor, no en contra, unos de otros, especialmente cuando no estamos de acuerdo. Cambiamos el rumbo de siglos de división racial en la Iglesia Confiamos en toda la Palabra de Dios con convicción mientras amamos con compasión a todos los que nos rodean Hacemos justicia con bondad y experimentamos la buena vida según Dios Hacemos nuestra parte en la difusión del evangelio a todas las naciones del mundo Podemos experimentar la maravilla completa de Jesús y la belleza trascendente de su Iglesia aquí y ahora. Pero para hacerlo, algunas cosas deben ser diferentes. Empecemos no con "esa gente", sino con cada uno de nosotros. Con el evangelio en nuestros corazones y Dios como nuestro premio, sigamos adelante y no nos detengamos. > The New York Times bestselling author of Radical challenges Christians to break free from an American gospel that prostitutes Jesus for comfort, power, prosperity, and politics--and fully pursue the true gospel that exalts Jesus above all. Pastor David Platt believes we've gotten really good at following a really bad gospel--one that worships American ideas over biblical truth. It's time for disillusioned, discouraged, and divided Christians, and the next generation, to follow Jesus into a different future. But we have to make a choice: an American gospel or the biblical gospel, worldly division or otherworldly unity, compromise with the idols of our country or commitment to God's call in our lives. In Don't Hold Back, Platt encourages followers of Jesus to take necessary risks and find unimaginable reward as we: Work for, not against, each other, especially when we disagree Turn the tide on centuries of racial division in the church Trust all of God's Word with conviction while loving everyone around us with compassion Do justice with kindness and experience the good life according to God Play our part in spreading the gospel to all the nations of the world We can experience the full wonder of Jesus and the transcendent beauty of His church here and now. But in order to do so, some things need to be different. Starting not in "those people," but in each one of us. With the gospel in our hearts and God as our prize, let's press on and don't hold back.

A beautifully written and moving memoir about the pain of loss, spiritual skepticism, an overwhelming experience of God's love, and an encounter with the writings of sixteenth-century spiritual mystic Teresa of Avila.

All of us are recovering from something. Whether it's an addiction, a painful incident from our past, or a daily challenge just to get by in this world, something is holding us back from the promised-land life God wants for us. Real recovery isn't a one-time event or a process that fits into twelve steps or a preset length of time. Uncovering how to live free of what holds you back is a lifelong journey, and one that is best traveled with others. The Uncovery Devotional: Rethinking Recovery One Day at a Time will help you take those steps toward a better, healthier, happier you. The authors, George A. Wood and Brit Eaton, know that battles with addiction, mental health, suicidal thoughts, and past trauma cannot be won overnight. They've been in your shoes. And they provide the love, commitment, and compassion that will help you uncover and heal the bottom-line issue that causes you to struggle in the first place. Each month follows a theme, such as reflection, relationship, and reconciliation, while each day provides a short Scripture and prayer. Wild opportunities for hope, healing, and transformation exist for you in the Christian recovery space because you're not working to recover an old, broken life--you're going after a brand new one. You'll discover the truth about who you really are and Whose you really are so that you can reach deep levels of healing and deliverance.

What if you never expected miraculous healing was possible but were surprised when it actually happened, or by the way in which it happened? And what if you found out that, all along, the Bible had principles for healing prayer that we could apply to our lives for restoring body, mind, and spirit? Join authors David Chotka and Maxie Dunnam in their unexpected journeys of discovery that healing prayer is God's idea, not a human concept, and that He invites us to intercede for healing in our own lives and on behalf of others. Prayer, including healing prayer, is one of the greatest activities in which Christians can participate with God to fulfill His purposes. God wants us to pray as an integral part of our relationship with Him and as a vital aspect of our life of faith. This intriguing book covers such topics as: Healing prayer: what does the Bible say? Medicine, miracle, and mystery: how they interrelate Why and how we pray for healing The role of compassion in healing Christ's forgiving and healing presence within us How to prepare yourself for prayer Eight ways healing prayer is misunderstood Healing Prayer includes accounts of God's power to heal today, and it provides guidance for how to organize a prayer team in your small group, church, or denomination. Above all, this book shows that it is God who initiates healing prayer. Our part is to respond to His instructions and leading as we pray. All He asks is our openness to Him. Read this book and you, too, may be surprised by the power of Healing Prayer.

What would it have looked like and felt like to walk daily with Jesus during His time on earth, sharing in what He experienced and taught? And how does His life have significance for our own lives today? We can answer these questions by following in His footsteps--each step of the way. In any journey, the destination is important, but just as significant is the life we experience as we travel that path. Jesus' journey was similar. Who He traveled with, where He went, and what He experienced along the way were all important to Him. He's still on His journey, and He has invited you to join Him on it. This new devotional series, Life Along the Way, takes you through the life of Jesus by way of all four Gospels and the first chapter of Acts. In four 90-day devotionals, you can travel with Jesus for a full year if you wish--from His birth, to His ministry and miracles, to His relationships with the people around Him, to His death, resurrection, and ascension. The four devotionals in the journey, which you can read either sequentially or in any order, are: 1. Jesus With Us: Meeting Him Where He Began 2. Jesus Among Us: Walking with Him in His Ministry and Miracles 3. Jesus Through Us: Following His Example in Love and Service 4. Jesus in Us: Living Wholeheartedly the Life He Intends In this devotional, Jesus with Us, you will stop at important early places along Jesus's path, including His birth, the fulfillment of the promises of His coming, the plot to kill the Christ Child, Jesus's youth, the beginning of His ministry, the calling of His first followers, and His famous Sermon on the Mount. This devotional is designed so that... Each day's Scripture will be life-transforming Each day's "Life Lessons from Jesus" will be dynamic and relevant Each day's questions will be reflective and self-exploring, leading to spiritual growth Each day's prayer will be authentic and relational The beginning of Jesus's story is powerful, but it can also be very personal. As you journey each day with the Savior, you will learn to love Jesus and love like Jesus. Where are you on your walk with Jesus?

It's hard enough having a painful secret that you are terrified of sharing. It's even harder when you find yourself in the international limelight as the advocate wife of a Christian hero imprisoned for his faith. The worst part is fearing that, if you did share this secret, it might devastate the lives of your family and close friends, alienate tens of thousands of active supporters, and cause persecuted people around the world to become even more vulnerable. Naghmeh Abedini Panahi lived in constant tension from the irreconcilable realities playing out in her own life, in her family life, in the conduct of others, and on the worldwide stage as she interacted with power brokers and well-known religious leaders. Tension involving: Steadfastly honoring God versus being carried away by the tide of circumstancesPersonal reality versus public personaGenuine faith versus hypocritical religionTruth and caring versus the end justifying the meansObedience to God versus loyalty to othersFor Naghmeh, it all came to a breaking point, and the only way through it was to die. Not physically, but in experiencing a death and rebirth in her understanding of God, her faith, and her identity as a woman. "I can't tell you how I was able to make it through, because I didn't," she writes. "Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes, the new me emerged from the catastrophe of my marriage." I Didn't Survive: Emerging Whole After Deception, Persecution, and Hidden Abuse is Naghmeh's firsthand story, which takes you from war-torn Tehran to the quiet Midwestern U.S. to the halls of power in Washington D.C. It vividly describes the Islamic upbringing that shaped her, her unexpected conversion to Christianity, and the events that led to her marriage to Saeed Abedini, a magnetic pastor in the Iranian underground church. The book details Saeed's arrest and imprisonment for preaching the gospel, her fateful decision to share the truth about her husband, her betrayal and abandonment by former supporters, and the new life of advocacy for women that has arisen from the brokenness. Through the pain, abuse, and loss, Naghmeh clearly demonstrates what it means for us to find our true identity in God, discover the protective care God has for His children, and participate in sharing the love and healing He desires to bring to the world.
