Download or read book The Hole in Our Holiness written by Kevin DeYoung and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hole in our holiness is that we don't care much about holiness. Or, at the very least, we don't understand it. And we all have our reasons too: Maybe the pursuit of holiness seems legalistic. Maybe it feels like one more thing to worry about in your already overwhelming life. Maybe the emphasis on effort in the Christian life appears unspiritual. Or maybe you've been trying really hard to be holy and it's just not working! Whatever the case, the problem is clear: too few Christians look like Christ and too many don't seem all that concerned about it. This is a book for those of us who are ready to take holiness seriously, ready to be more like Jesus, ready to live in light of the grace that produces godliness. This is a book about God's power to help us grow in personal holiness and to enjoy the process of transformation.

Download or read book Good Or God? written by John Bevere and published by Messenger International. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These days the terms good and God seem synonymous. We believe what’s generally accepted as good must be in line with God’s will. Generosity, humility, justice—good. Selfishness, arrogance, cruelty—evil. The distinction seems pretty straightforward. But is that all there is to it? If good is so obvious, why does the Bible say that we need discernment to recognize it? Good or God? isn’t another self-help message. This book will do more than ask you to change your behavior. It will empower you to engage with God on a level that will change every aspect of your life.

Book excerpt: The Wilbur Award-winning book Grateful is now available in paperback and with an updated subtitle. If gratitude is good, why is it so hard to do? In Grateful, Diana Butler Bass untangles our conflicting understandings of gratitude and sets the table for a renewed practice of giving thanks. We know that gratitude is good, but many of us find it hard to sustain a meaningful life of gratefulness. Four out of five Americans report feeling gratitude on a regular basis, but those private feelings seem disconnected from larger concerns of our public lives. In Grateful, cultural observer and theologian Diana Butler Bass takes on this “gratitude gap” and offers up surprising, relevant, and powerful insights to practice gratitude. Bass, author of the award-winning Grounded and ten other books on spirituality and culture, explores the transformative, subversive power of gratitude for our personal lives and in communities. Using her trademark blend of historical research, spiritual insights, and timely cultural observation, she shows how we can overcome this gap and make change in our own lives and in the world. With honest stories and heartrending examples from history and her own life, Bass reclaims gratitude as a path to greater connection with god, with others, with the world, and even with our own souls. It’s time to embrace a more radical practice of gratitude—the virtue that heals us and helps us thrive.

Download or read book How Does Sanctification Work? written by David Powlison and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many popular views try to reduce the process of Christian growth to a single template: Remember past grace. Rehearse your identity in Christ. Avail yourself of the means of grace. Discipline yourself. But Scripture portrays the dynamics of sanctification in a rich variety of ways. No single factor, truth, or protocol can capture why and how a person is changed into the image of Christ. Weaving together personal stories, biblical exposition, and theological reflection, David Powlison shows the personal and particular ways that God meets you where you are to produce change. He highlights the variety of factors that work together, helping us to avoid sweeping generalizations and pat answers in the search for a key to sanctification. This book is a go-to resource for understanding the multifaceted, lifelong, personal journey of sanctification.

Download or read book The Way of Holiness written by Phoebe Palmer and published by . This book was released on 1843 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phoebe Palmer's excellent Christian devotional is filled with lessons on attaining spiritual closeness to God, and living a life of a true believer with the Bible close to heart. Superb for her thoroughness in selecting the finest lessons from scripture, Phoebe Palmer begins each chapter of this book with a short yet poignant verse or quotation. This work is an account of the author's own discovery of faith, given in the order of spiritual awakenings she received in the process of becoming a good Christian. With her talent for plain explanation through both poem and text, the author mentions chapters of the Bible most useful for readers to reference. Part of this work is introspective, as Palmer observes the gradual change in her spirit as she endeavors to attain true nearness to God. Yet her narration is also part-biographical, recounting incidents and encounters with people who had a lasting effect on her spiritual journey. As one of the first female Christian writers, Palmer is conscious of her gender and the potential that this book might inspire and awaken the spirits of fellow women. Above all however, she is focused upon the path and way to holiness; a journey on which all believers must walk in mindful reverence of the divine.

Book excerpt: What reader audience is this book intended for? Well, if you are not sure whether God exists or whether He loves you, or if you have lost your way and have fallen away from God and would like to return to Him, or if you have struggled to grow in holiness and have not made much progress, then this book will definitely help you get started on your journey back home where you belong - as a member of God's family. One important group of people can benefit from reading this book, and that is, atheists! Yes, because I was an atheist from age 18 to 24 while studying High Energy Physics at the University of Toronto in Canada. Then after a restless period of searching for the meaning of life when science started to let me down, I turned in desperation and asked God that if He really existed, to show me a sign in 48 hours. In less than 24 hours, God answered me in a dream. That was over 33 years ago, and my life has never been the same since. Your life too can take a turn for the better if you trust what I am going to share with you in the pages of this book. The major ideas and teachings in this book are based on three private revelations of God to the author, and I can take no credit for them. They were were revealed to me during the intense periods of searching, praying, and earnestly asking God for the solutions to crises in my life. God always answers our prayers in crisis situations if we beg Him for solutions to our dilemmas. Making it to heaven from life on this earth is not easy but can be attained by anyone who desires it. Isn't an eternity in heaven with God, all the angels and all the saints, worth putting our best effort forward? Come with me of this journey as I reveal to you The Key, The Door, and The Garden that will help you get started on your journey toward heaven.

Book excerpt: Holiness is a work of disarming simplicity, yet in not simplistic. It recognizes and respects the complexities, struggles, and rationalizations inside our hearts, even as it challenges us to greater depth of soul. It's a profound book-deceptively so because of its accessible language-that introduces us to what's deep inside the wells of our ancient spiritual traditions, and allow to what's deep inside the multiple crevasses layering our own hearts.
