Book Synopsis Converge Bible Studies: Our Common Sins by : Dottie Escobedo-Frank
Download or read book Converge Bible Studies: Our Common Sins written by Dottie Escobedo-Frank and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2013-04-04 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The disciples were fairly ordinary people. They had regular families, made their livelihoods in regular ways, and had typical and varied political leanings. But they met Jesus and started to live extraordinary lives. Because of their closeness to Jesus, we tend to think that the disciples lived lives with less sin than we live with. We imagine that Jesus’ love rubbed off on them so that they were also extraordinary humans. But the Gospels show us differently. They show us that Jesus’ close companions were as human as we are. And it is because we recognize the sins of the disciples as our own that we can relate to them so closely. They are our common sins. Converge Bible Studies is a series of topical Bible studies based on the Common English Bible. Each title in the series consists of four studies on a common topic or theme. Converge can be used by small groups, classes, or individuals. Primary Scripture passages are included for ease of study, as are questions designed to encourage both personal reflection and group conversation. The topics and Scriptures in Converge come together to transform readers’ relationships with others, themselves, and God.
Download or read book Ordinary Sins written by Jim Heynen and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a bar hosting its nightly Sad Hour to the moonlit sandbox of a retired army general, Jim Heynen’s new collection of micro fiction presents character sketches of strange yet fascinating men and women. Modeled after Theophrastus' Characters — brief, verbal snapshots of people created by the Greek philosopher — Heynen captures not just the quirks and eccentricities of his characters, but also their humanity. Guilty of only ordinary and forgivable sins, these sketches reveal universal human idiosyncrasies as much as they do the individual characters. Paired with the wonderfully evocative illustrations of renowned illustrator Tom Pohrt, Ordinary Sins will appeal to story lovers and collectors of beautifully made books alike.
Book Synopsis Ordinary Vices by : Judith N. Shklar
Download or read book Ordinary Vices written by Judith N. Shklar and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seven deadly sins of Christianity represent the abysses of character, whereas Shklar's "ordinary vices"--cruelty, hypocrisy, snobbery, betrayal, and misanthropy--are merely treacherous shoals, flawing our characters with mean-spiritedness and inhumanity. Shklar draws from a brilliant array of writers--Moliere and Dickens on hypocrisy, Jane Austen on snobbery, Shakespeare and Montesquieu on misanthropy, Hawthorne and Nietzsche on cruelty, Conrad and Faulkner on betrayal--to reveal the nature and effects of the vices. She examines their destructive effects, the ambiguities of the moral problems they pose to the liberal ethos, and their implications for government and citizens: liberalism is a difficult and challenging doctrine that demands a tolerance of contradiction, complexity, and the risks of freedom.

Book Synopsis Memoirs of an Ordinary Pastor by : D. A. Carson
Download or read book Memoirs of an Ordinary Pastor written by D. A. Carson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2008-02-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: D. A. Carson's father was a pioneering church-planter and pastor in Quebec. But still, an ordinary pastor-except that he ministered during the decades that brought French Canada from the brutal challenges of persecution and imprisonment for Baptist ministers to spectacular growth and revival in the 1970s. It is a story, and an era, that few in the English-speaking world know anything about. But through Tom Carson's journals and written prayers, and the narrative and historical background supplied by his son, readers will be given a firsthand account of not only this trying time in North American church history, but of one pastor's life and times, dreams and disappointments. With words that will ring true for every person who has devoted themselves to the Lord's work, this unique book serves to remind readers that though the sacrifices of serving God are great, the sweetness of living a faithful, obedient life is greater still.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered if God is real? Have you asked either yourself or others, "Is God truly real?" only to never receive a definitive answer? Perhaps, you've grown up in a Christian household, or are a devout Christian, or perhaps you are a nonbeliever. But whoever you are, at your core, you do not know for sure if God is truly real. This book unlocks the truth of how real God is and how alive He is in our lives today. In this book, Pastor Ae Cha, through her personal relationship with God, shares individual testimonies revealing in detail how God answered her to prove that He indeed is real.

These stories illustrate in detail how much our Heavenly Father cares and loves His greatest creation""humanity. Each story reveals how He loves you and yearns to be in a personal relationship with you. Contained within each chapter is the revelation of how God is with you when you need a job, when you are facing severe health issues, dealing with feelings of unbelief and doubt, mistaken understandings about His character, and so much more. Within the pages of this book lies the answer of whether or not "God is Real" and the truth of His existence and never-ending love to help you in every area of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Cares More About How You Eat than What You Eat Christians should have their heads on straight about food—but too often our eating is complicated by burdens and rules, by diets and dependencies. So how can we keep a spiritually healthy view of what we eat? Should Christians stop eating white sugar? Does the Bible ask us to go paleo? Most questions about food aren’t really about nutrition but about how we understand God. In Broken Bread, Christian Book Award–winner Tilly Dillehay challenges us to abandon the concept of good and bad foods and instead offers a way to… celebrate food without obsession make healthy choices without bondage to rules feed our families without feeling frazzled find satisfaction without using food as an emotional crutch This isn’t another diet book. You won’t find any system or plan for eating but rather a joyful call to develop a vision of Christ that informs the way you eat. Take delight in food again, and discover a feast for today that whispers of the eternal feast to come.
Book Synopsis A Christian Directory (Vol. 1-4) by : Richard Baxter
Download or read book A Christian Directory (Vol. 1-4) written by Richard Baxter and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-25 with total page 2688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Baxter's 'A Christian Directory' (Vol. 1-4) is a comprehensive guide for Christian living that covers a wide range of topics including prayer, worship, virtues, and vices. Written in the 17th century, Baxter's work reflects the Puritan tradition of practical theology and combines spiritual insight with practical advice on how to live a godly life. The book's dense prose and detailed explanations make it a valuable resource for those seeking to deepen their spiritual practice and moral understanding. Baxter's emphasis on personal piety and ethical conduct resonates throughout the pages, reminding readers of the importance of faith in everyday life. Richard Baxter was a prominent English Puritan preacher and writer known for his works on theology and devotional literature. His pastoral experience and commitment to the Protestant Reformation influenced his writing, as seen in 'A Christian Directory.' Baxter's dedication to the spiritual well-being of his congregation led him to compile this extensive guide, drawing from his own experiences as a minister. I highly recommend 'A Christian Directory' to readers interested in exploring the intersection of faith and practical living. Baxter's timeless wisdom and profound insights continue to inspire and challenge Christians to grow in their relationship with God and cultivate a life of holiness.

Book Synopsis A Fresh Look at Confession by : David M. Knight
Download or read book A Fresh Look at Confession written by David M. Knight and published by Twenty-Third Publications. This book was released on 2013 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Knight was forty years a priest before he learned that priests don't hear sins in confession. "What you are really revealing is your ideals," he says. "The real you has a different set of ideals, reflecting your heart instead of your lapses. This 'you' abides with God." With these words Father Knight reveals that A Fresh Look at Confession is unlike anything you may have read about the sacrament. He speaks about the heart of confession, its meaning and mystery, and why it is so necessary for authentic followers of Christ. This is deep theology, explained in clear language. But it's also much more: Father Knight's moving, intensely personal account of his own journey as a sinner takes readers beyond theory and into the awe-inspiring reality of our complete redemption in Jesus, who does not just forgive, but who "takes away" the sins of the world. From a varied background as missionary, teacher, pastor, professor, retreat director, and campus minister, Father Knight's ministry has come to focus on making mystical experience commonplace in conscious Christian living.
