Book Synopsis Modeling the Heavenly Father to Earthly Children by : Kevin Anthony Keating
Download or read book Modeling the Heavenly Father to Earthly Children written by Kevin Anthony Keating and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth ...” (Lk. 10:21 NIV) Jesus called God his Father, and he taught his followers to think of God as their Father too, saying, “This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven ...’ ” (Mt. 6:9 NIV) The Scripture describes our Father God as loving and compassionate, just yet gracious, merciful and forgiving. But what if hearing the words “Father in heaven” evokes in our children’s minds negative images from adverse experiences they have had with their own fathers on earth? As explained in MODELING THE HEAVENLY FATHER TO EARTHLY CHILDREN, we Christian dads, as well as grandfathers and other influential male adults, have the responsibility and privilege to raise our boys and girls, sons and daughters of all ages, in such a way as to give them an accurate and positive understanding of who God really is. We do this by emulating and modeling divine attributes like justice and abhorrence of evil, but also kindness, wisdom, communication, compassion, and most certainly love. This will take dedication and perseverance; nonetheless, we must rise to this challenge, for our kids will be watching us and learning about what “heavenly Father” really means.
Download or read book Heaven on Earth written by Lynn Sandberg and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-12-11 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is the perfect father, and you can improve your parenting style by looking to Him. He sets the example for how to be a provider, protector, teacher, and disciplinarian. This guidebook to Christian parenting explores the attributes of God a parent should try to emulate. It also brings to light four ways that Jesus grew in Luke 2:52, developing intellectually, physically, spiritually, and socially. As a parent, you can help your children follow in their saviors footsteps. Just as the Lord disciplines those He loves, parents must discipline their children. Heaven on Earth carefully describes biblical principles to help parents provide the environment children need. It offers proper and healthy techniques to aid parents in leading children to honor and respect not only their parents but ultimately the Lord. Whats more, it draws a line between appropriate and abusive actions to control childrens behavior. Parents can proactively develop a disciplinary plan to guard against crossing these boundaries. Parents face many challenges to lead and guide the family in godly ways, and many struggle with the feelings of anger and failure. Find encouragement and strength through the power of Gods Word and the strength of the Holy Spirit, and get practical help in facing rebellious and wayward children. You can be inspired to overcome any obstacle, and raise your children for the glory of God.

Book Synopsis Family Discipleship by : Matt Chandler
Download or read book Family Discipleship written by Matt Chandler and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2020-08-28 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important disciple a parent will make is within their own home, and yet this is the most difficult disciple to make. Family Discipleship by Matt Chandler and Adam Griffin helps readers develop a sustainable rhythm of gospel-centered discipleship through a guided framework focusing on moments of discipleship in 3 key areas: time (intentional time gathering your family around gospel activities or conversations), moments (leveraging opportunities throughout the day), and milestones (celebrating significant life events). Each section provides parents with Scriptures to consider, questions to answer, structures to implement, and ideas to try out as they seek to see Christ formed in their children. Here is a book that begins with the end in mind, offering ideas and examples of what gospel-centered family discipleship looks like, helping parents design their own discipleship plan as they seek to raise children in the love and fear of the Lord.
Book Synopsis Our FatherS Who Art in Heaven by : Rodric K. Reid
Download or read book Our FatherS Who Art in Heaven written by Rodric K. Reid and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing can replace the influence that a father has in the life of his child. A daughter looks to her father as a measure to gauge the man she will ultimately offer herself as a life-mate in matrimony. A son looks to his father as a role model to whom he one day will become. God has given us the ideal blueprint of a father through His word and His daily interactions with we, His children. Our heavenly Father begins His relationship by assuring each of us that He loved us so much that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus. It is through His relationship with Jesus that a good father begins to mirror his relationship with his children. Certainly, mine did! I was completely blessed to have a loving earthly father who, unbeknownst to me, was ushering me into eternal relationship with our heavenly Father. But on April of 2007, my entire life changed when my best friend, my mentor, my pastor, my father died. Our FatherS Who Art in Heaven is a collection of life lessons that I learned from my earthly father and the biblical revelations our heavenly Father has given to help better understand those life lessons. Every day, God is speaking to us through His word to teach, lead, and prepare us for all of the trials life brings. Whether your father is still present in the flesh or sainted with the Lord, this book will reveal the plan of unconditional love of both an earthly and a heavenly father that has been prepared for you.

Book Synopsis Beautiful and Terrible Things by : Christian M. M. Brady
Download or read book Beautiful and Terrible Things written by Christian M. M. Brady and published by Westminster John Knox Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bible scholar Christian Brady, an expert on Old Testament lament, was as prepared as a person could be for the death of a child—which is to say, not nearly well enough. When his eight-year-old son died suddenly from a fast-moving blood infection, Brady heard the typical platitudes about accepting God's will and knew that quiet acceptance was not the only godly way to grieve. With deep faith, knowledge of Scripture, and the wisdom that comes only from experience, Brady guides readers grieving losses and setbacks of all kinds in voicing their lament to God, reflecting on the nature of human existence, and persevering in hope. Brady finds that rather than an image of God managing every event and action in our lives, the biblical account describes the very real world in which we all live, a world full of hardship and calamity that often comes unbidden and unmerited. Yet, it also is a world into which God lovingly intrudes to bring comfort, peace, and grace.

Book Synopsis Your Father in Heaven by : Henry Pattarumadathil
Download or read book Your Father in Heaven written by Henry Pattarumadathil and published by Pontificio Istituto Biblico. This book was released on 2008 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of discipleship in Matthew has been explained in several ways using different identity defining terms from the gospel. Such as one who does the will of God, one who practises the greater righteousness, one who becomes like a child, one who carries the cross etc.. The present study identifies the extensively but selectively used relational appellation Father for God in the gospel as the most important key for understanding the identity of the disciples. By examining all the passages where this appellation is used to refer to god as the father of the disciples, this study shows that discipleship is viewed in Matthew as a process of becoming children of God. Five different dimensions of discipleship - christological, ecclesiological, missiological, eschatological, and ethical -are integrated in this study. Discipleship is a process of becoming children of god: through Jesus, the son, one can become a child of god (christological); by responding affirmatively to jesus and to his message one enters the earthly family of God and continues his/her journey with other brothers and sisters (ecclesiological); through their life witness and teachings the disciples attract and invite other people to join them in their process of becoming children of God (missiological ); one becomes irrevocably a child of God only in the kingdom (eschatological); to reach this state one should do the will of God and practise the greater righteousness (ethical).

Book Synopsis The Daniel Fast for Spiritual Breakthrough by : Elmer L. Towns
Download or read book The Daniel Fast for Spiritual Breakthrough written by Elmer L. Towns and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2010-02-12 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elmer Towns's Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough has become must-reading as this powerful spiritual discipline of fasting has seen a revival among followers of Christ. Now Towns digs deeper into one of the most popular forms of fasting today, the Daniel Fast. With an emphasis on a healthy, simple diet, the Daniel Fast is named after the prophet Daniel who participated in a partial fast for spiritual purposes. Daniel was taken captive into Babylon when he was sixteen years old. The Babylonian king wanted the young prophet to help him administer his rule over the captive Jews--and he wanted to "Babylon-ize" Daniel, to make the young man of God more like him. The first step the king took in his campaign was to provide a sumptuous feast to tempt Daniel--food fit for a king-- basically fattening comfort foods. In response, the prophet refrained from the king's table, choosing instead to eat only vegetables and to drink only water. He honored God over the king. Dr. Elmer Towns introduces readers to the spiritual, physical, and mental basics of the Daniel Fast, coaching them through either a ten-day or twenty-one-day period of renewal, and he includes original Daniel Fast recipes created by executive chef John P. Perkins. Dr. Towns addresses practical questions, such as what to eat and when, as well as how to pray effectively. Readers will learn how to encounter God during their fast, how to worship through self-discipline, and how to pray for specific answers. They will also explore the role of weeping, repentance, and spiritual warfare in their life of faith. Daniel is a model to God's people of someone who chooses spiritual nourishment over bodily satisfaction, in The Daniel Fast for Spiritual Breakthrough, God's people can learn to follow his example.
Download or read book God Is... written by Inalie Painter and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is a close friend to all believers, but how well do you really know this God of love and mercy? How can we be like him if we do not know and understand who he is? In "God Is..." author Inalie Painter uses insightful observations, anecdotes, and biblical illustrations to help readers discover the character of our great and sovereign God. By increasing our knowledge of who God is, we will increase our understanding of him and his expectations for his people. Like Paul, our goal should be to 'know him and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death' (Philippians 3:10, NKJ). Your knowledge of God will certainly increase as you read "God Is..." "God Is..." is a warm commentary on the multiple facets of the character of God. ...a delightful read and an inspiration to share the greatness of God with others. -Conrad Hurd, Missionary with Wycliffe Bible Translators for forty-nine years The Hebrews told stories of God's mighty deeds, the prophets reported direct encounters with God, the Greeks devised endless myths of the gods, early Christians wrestled with the incarnation of God and theologians have argued the nature of God for centuries. In "God Is..."Author Inalie Painter, with her well-read Bible in hand, simply tells us what she knows God to be. -Dave Sheffel, ThM, Bible Teacher
Download or read book Who's Your Daddy? written by Waylon Ward and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2009-05 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are we living in a "post-father" era? This book is a wake-up call to men and women, challenging them to understand the crisis of fatherlessness in the world and to examine its impact on our culture and in individual lives. The author also identifies the different types of father wounds, the specific scars that men and women carry, and provides personal steps for healing and experiencing God's Father Love. As a generation, one of the biggest issues we face is fatherlessness. We have a generation of boys, raised by women, who don't know how to be a man, husband, or father; and a generation of girls raised without the protection, affirmation, or wholesome affection of a father. In this book, Waylon Ward tackles these tough issues head on. Dr. John A. King Best-selling author of It's a Guy Thing: Helping Guys Become Men, Husbands, and Fathers Waylon Ward is an experienced pastoral counselor and life coach who has focused on healing the wounds of father deprivation for more than 30 years. From his own childhood and the life experiences of thousands of people he has counseled, he has learned how to enable individuals to find healing from these wounds by coming home to the loving heart of God the Father. Waylon and his wife, Lynn, founded Mercy Matters, a ministry of counseling, teaching and restoration. The Global Fathering Initiative (GFI) was created in 2008 to address the fathering crisis in our world and to provide healing for wounded men, women and children. Waylon is also the author of The Bible in Counseling and Sex Matters.
Book Synopsis Jesus, Psychology, and Mental Health by : George Hinn
Download or read book Jesus, Psychology, and Mental Health written by George Hinn and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is manifestly evident that religion is not always led to mental health." I remember reading this statement from the book, The Psychology of Christian Personality by Ernest Ligon in the early 1960s. I was struck by it, because as a child growing up, I was told just the opposite.Subsequent empirical evidence has shown that Ligon was correct, but why? Religion is supposed to change people. Where was the disconnect? Does religion change people, or maybe do people change religion?In various ways, this statement has been a source of direction and study for me over my forty plus years in teaching and counseling. This book explores these questions and possible answers in light of mental health and the integration of Psychology and Religion.
