Book Synopsis Lies We Believe About God by : Wm. Paul Young
Download or read book Lies We Believe About God written by Wm. Paul Young and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the bestselling novel The Shack and the New York Times bestsellers Cross Roads and Eve comes a compelling, conversational exploration of twenty-eight assumptions about God—assumptions that just might be keeping us from experiencing His unconditional, all-encompassing love. In his wildly popular novels, Wm. Paul Young portrayed the Triune God in ways that challenged our thinking—sometimes upending long-held beliefs, but always centered in the eternal, all-encompassing nature of God’s love. Now, in Wm. Paul Young’s first nonfiction book, he invites us to revisit our assumptions about God—this time using the Bible, theological discussion, and personal anecdotes. Paul encourages us to think through beliefs we’ve presumed to be true and consider whether some might actually be false. Expounding on the compassion fans felt from the “Papa” portrayed in The Shack—now a major film starring Sam Worthington and Octavia Spencer—Paul encourages you to think anew about important issues including sin, religion, hell, politics, identity, creation, human rights, and helping us discover God’s deep and abiding love.
Download or read book Waiting on God written by Wayne Stiles and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have all experienced a disconnect between God's promises to us and our everyday reality. We wait, without understanding why. We want to know God's plan so that we can trust it--but God so often hides his plan so that we will trust him. What can we do in the meantime as we are waiting for an answer, a change, or a miracle? With deep compassion, Wayne Stiles helps readers understand why God makes them wait. Unpacking the Old Testament story of Joseph, Stiles shows readers how to find comfort and opportunity in the time between God's promises and his answers, revealing the perspective-altering truth that sometimes when we think we are waiting on God, he is actually waiting on us. Anyone who has felt a disconnect between God's promises and their reality, who doesn't know what God wants them to do next, or who struggles with the brokenness of their world will find in Wayne Stiles a wise and trustworthy guide to finding peace in the pauses.

Book Synopsis God's Perspective: 60 Important Topics and what God's Word Says about Them by : Eric Dykstra
Download or read book God's Perspective: 60 Important Topics and what God's Word Says about Them written by Eric Dykstra and published by Thrill & Move Worldwide. This book was released on 2021-03-21 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every person who believes God exists wants to know His perspective on the issues in our world. Is it all black and white, or are there gray areas? Believers and nonbelievers alike love to express their opinions, but does the Bible actually SAY anything about these topics?The goal of this book is to give Jesus-followers the places in scripture where God addresses many of our biggest questions in life. This book is not designed to give an author's perspective on these topics, but instead to give scripture regarding these topics, and then allow the Holy Spirit to guide the reader to the answers. We believe this book will grow your faith, increase your ability to read your Bible with an ear to the Holy Spirit's voice, and give you the scriptures to back up your faith and what you believe.
Book Synopsis In the Beginning, God by : Joel D. Heck
Download or read book In the Beginning, God written by Joel D. Heck and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Heck presents a theological defense of young earth creationism through a straightforward reading of the first chapter of Genesis as narrative history. This book works well for topic study on creation and for Old Testament studies on the text of Genesis. Much has been written on the creation from the scientific view, but little has attempted to explain the text of Genesis 1. A failure to read Genesis 1 as narrative history almost always comes as a result of the reader bringing presuppositions on the assured results of science. The first chapter of Genesis must be taken as historical fact!

Book Synopsis No More Faking Fine by : Esther Fleece Allen
Download or read book No More Faking Fine written by Esther Fleece Allen and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripture reveals a God who meets us where we are, not where we pretend to be. No More Faking Fine is your invitation to get honest with God through the life-giving language of lament. If you've ever been given empty clichés during challenging times, you know how painful it is to be misunderstood by well-meaning people. When life hurts, we often feel pressure--from others and ourselves--to keep it together, suck it up, or pray it away. But Scripture reveals a God who lovingly invites us to give honest voice to our emotions when life hits hard. For most of her life, Esther Fleece Allen believed she could bypass the painful emotions of her broken past by shutting them down altogether. She was known as an achiever and an overcomer on the fast track to success. But in silencing her pain, she robbed herself of the opportunity to be healed. Maybe you've done the same. Esther's journey into healing began when she discovered that God has given us a real-world way to deal with raw emotions and an alternative to the coping mechanisms that end up causing more pain. It's called lament--the gut-level, honest prayer that God never ignores, never silences, and never wastes. No More Faking Fine is your permission to lament, taking you on a journey down the unexpected pathway to true intimacy with God. Drawing from careful biblical study and hard-won insight, Esther reveals how to use God's own language to come closer to him as he leads us through our pain to the light on the other side, teaching you that: We are robbing ourselves of a divine mystery and a divine intimacy when we pretend to have it all together God does not expect us to be perfect; instead, he meets us where we are There is hope beyond your heartache, disappointment, and grief Like Esther, you'll soon find that when one person stops faking fine, it gives everyone else permission to do the same.

Book Synopsis The Doctrine of the Knowledge of God by : John M. Frame
Download or read book The Doctrine of the Knowledge of God written by John M. Frame and published by P & R Publishing. This book was released on 1987 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frame explores our relationship with God as a knowing relationship. He writes, "We tend to forget how often in Scripture God performs His mighty acts so that men will 'know' that He is Lord." He thus examines our knowledge of God as it relates to our knowledge of ourselves and of the world in which we live. Reflecting his conviction that theology is the application of Scripture to life in all situations, Frame combines trenchant analysis of theological, apologetical, and epistemological issues with refreshingly practical insights for living in the knowledge of God. -- Publisher's description.
Book Synopsis Lively Oracles of God by : Gordon Jeanes
Download or read book Lively Oracles of God written by Gordon Jeanes and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reexamines what we often take for granted: how Scripture is presented to worshipers; how it is heard, especially by those with little experience of the life of the church; Scripture’s role in mediating the great narratives of incarnation and redemption at the high points of the year; where Scripture meets people in ritual transition; how the Bible itself provides the language of much public prayer. Contributors also consider how the relationship between Scripture and liturgy is tested by new priorities—the climate crisis, the inclusion and protection of children, the recognition and honoring of those who find themselves on the margins of the church, and the significance of gender and identity in all areas of the church’s life. This book does not offer definitive statements. It is an invitation to a wide audience to engage in new conversations with their practice of worship.
Book Synopsis An Eastern Perspective On The Word by : Charles Busby
Download or read book An Eastern Perspective On The Word written by Charles Busby and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Holy Bible was written by the Holy Spirit via the hands of ancient Middle-Eastern men. The accounts and events that are recorded in the holy book are thru the eyes and life experiences of each of those writers. The laws, traditions, manners, and customs of the time where each writer lived had a very great and significant impact upon the images and message that each writer intended to communicate, convey, and express in their writings. These recorded persons, events, and matters were profoundly impacted by the culture, laws, manners, and customs of the people being written about and the men God used to record them. Therefore, putting these matters into proper context is the first priority of any Bible teacher. Each biblical writer assumed that all future readers of their words would understand their writings through the same cultural lens that they experienced them. Thus they would record each event and the person spoken about per their particular cultural standpoint. However, Christianity is currently preached and taught primarily from a Western perspective. Western men and women do not understand or practice the same laws, manners, or exercise the same customs as those practiced by any of the Middle-Eastern persons that the Lord used to record his word. Most of today's Christians have little knowledge of these cultural differences. Therefore, the persons and events recorded in our Holy Bible are frequently misunderstood and misrepresented. Please allow me to use an example to make my point. The famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci named The Lord's Supper is one of the world's most famous and recognized paintings. The Lord's Supper is depicted by da Vinci as thirteen men (the Lord Jesus and his twelve disciples) around a long table. I believe that a copy of this painting probably hangs in more homes than any other picture ever painted. However, a Bible School student that has taken Biblical Manners and Customs will tell you that these people during this time and in that culture always took their meals while sitting on cushions, pallets, or mats upon the floor. The participants to the meals would gather in a circle so as to be able to face each other. The bread, meat, and other food items would be placed in the middle of those dining so that all could reach into the bowls and dip their bread or sop out of the bowls. Leonardo da Vinci was not aware of the difference in dining customs. Therefore, it is very understandable why he portrayed the event of the Lord taking that meal while sitting at a table. That was the way that his culture took its meals. However, da Vinci was still wrong and did not correctly represent or depict what the event actually looked like. Does this make him bad or evil? No, of course not! But he misrepresented the event and how the meal was actually observed by the Savior. There is only one goal in writing this book. It is to observe 2 Timothy 2:15. It is imperative that I provide the accurate image and the correct message in the context intended by the original writer. Their texts eventually became part of our Holy Bible. Each subject and event discussed in this book is presented and explained per a perspective that is predicated and based upon the manners and customs of the culture practiced where each of the subjects and events took place. The correct interpretation of the customs during those periods of time in the Middle East is what is needed to understand and correctly divide those matters in the Word of God. Many of these presentations will vary from what western Christians have come to believe, think, and teach about many of the persons used and dealt with by God.
Download or read book Through His Eyes written by Jerram Barrs and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-02-04 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eve, Sarah, Deborah, Mary, the woman at the well... women have played pivotal roles in redemptive history. Their case studies reveal God's perspective on women, then and now. Few biblical teachings have been as misunderstood and muddled by those inside and outside the church as its instruction concerning women. Through His Eyes answers the question "What does God think about women, and how does he treat them?" by walking readers through several biblical case studies. Through His Eyes begins with Eve and a series of Old Testament examples that demonstrate the respect God gives to women and their significant place in salvation history. In the New Testament we see how God blessed Mary by calling her to be the mother of our Savior and how beautifully Jesus treated women. Here is a happy exposition of the dignity and glory the Lord showers on women. The author encourages women to delight in their creation and calling, and he challenges men to honor women as does the Lord himself.
