Book Synopsis Searching for Answers in Capernaum by : Dale Weatherford
Download or read book Searching for Answers in Capernaum written by Dale Weatherford and published by David Weatherford. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Searching for Answers in Capernaum” is the fifth book of “The New Way Series.” It is based on the first century manuscript “Acts of the Apostles” written by Luke. Capernaum is a large city located in Galilee and a place where Jesus once lived and taught. The children of Capernaum thought it was the most wonderful place to grow up. But as they entered adulthood, they realized that not only was Capernaum not perfect, but maybe their ideas and beliefs were changing, too. As they learned of Jesus’ death and resurrection in Jerusalem, they began to search for answers to their questions. Gradually, we see the New Way impacting their world, but we also see Capernaum changing as more and more Jewish Pharisees moved into the area. The New Way that they had discovered became dangerous and even life-threatening as it stood firmly opposed to the traditional beliefs. Acts is a turbulent time of history and Capernaum’s children became adults at a time of great social change. “Searching for Answers in Capernaum” is based in first century Galilee, but is relevant as we contemplate the same questions today. Enjoy the fictional account of how these adults dealt with their changing world. “Waiting in Obedience in Capernaum” is the next book in The New Way Series and continues with the characters you’ll meet in this book. Watch as their world continues to radically change, and they must determine their response.
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 233 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 Searching for Jesus by : Robert J. Hutchinson
Download or read book Searching for Jesus written by Robert J. Hutchinson and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, Bible scholars and university researchers have been systematically debunking what ordinary Christians believed about Jesus of Nazareth. But what if the most recent Biblical scholarship actually affirmed the New Testament? What if Jesus was not a Zealot revolutionary, or a Greek Cynic philosopher, or a proto-feminist Gnostic, but precisely what he claimed to be: the divine Son of Man prophesied in the Book of Daniel who gave his life as a ransom for many? What if everything the Gospels say about Jesus of Nazareth—his words, his deeds, his plans—turned out to be true? Searching for Jesus changes “what if?” to “what is,” debunking the debunkers and showing how the latest scholarship supports orthodox Christian belief.
Book Synopsis Encountering Differences in Antioch of Syria by : Dale Weatherford
Download or read book Encountering Differences in Antioch of Syria written by Dale Weatherford and published by David Weatherford. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Encountering Differences in Antioch of Syria" is the seventh book of "The New Way Series." It is based on the first century manuscript "Acts of the Apostles" written by Luke. We have seen how the New Way might have moved from Jerusalem to both villages and large cities in Galilee, but Luke records that it also began to impact the surrounding countries — countries that had once been considered archenemies of Israel. The city of Antioch was established by Alexander the Great, but when the Romans took control, they desired to make it the capital city of the region. They provided incentives of property, jobs, housing, and religious freedom. As a result, Antioch soon became the third largest city of the Roman Empire and was filled with people from many different nations. Many followers of Jesus and New Way groups relocated to Antioch. They encountered people from all over the known world, and specifically Pharisees from Jerusalem who were intent on destroying the New Way. Once again, I have chosen to imagine what it must have been like for some of the characters who were introduced in Book #1 of the New Way Series to become adults and relocate to Antioch of Syria. They expected to be in the minority. They were prepared to face the misunderstanding of other religions. But they were surprised to discover that some of the hardest battles were keeping the peace with fellow followers. They had to deal with questions, conflicts, and disagreements as the New Way was being forged and strengthened by its battles. These young adults had to determine what they believed, and what they were willing to sacrifice in order to follow those beliefs. What would they give up in order to be obedient to Jehovah? Watch as these young friends of Jesus became adults in a strange land, far from home. And look forward to the final New Way Series Book #8, "Telling the World from Antioch of Syria," where they begin to face the high price of spreading the New Way deeper and deeper into the uttermost parts of the world.

This book was released on 2022-08-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel is a rich exploration of two New Testament healings: the bleeding woman who touched the hem of Jesus's garment and the daughter of Jairus the Pharisee. The Gospel of Luke (8:40aEUR"48) sets the miracles on the same day as Jesus and a crowd make their way to the house of Jairus. Could there be a connection between the woman who has bled for twelve years and the twelve-year-old girl who has died? If so, how are they related? What desperation drives the weakened woman to push through the crowd and emboldens her to touch the hem of Jesus? What compels a strict, faithful Pharisee to step outside the confines of his beliefs and risk ridicule and shunning from his neighbors to seek help from a questionable, itinerant rabbi? How does life change for them after the women are healed? This moving story has emerged from the author's knowledge of and reflection on scripture along with careful research into the time and place of the event. Characters come to life as their stories unfold, revealing intimate portraits of life and love in Roman-occupied Capernaum. Ultimately, this is a story of newfound faithaEUR"that of Jairus and the members of his household as their belief in God's love and mercy is tested and transformed through the miracles of Jesus. The author has made every effort to present an accurate account of first-century life in Galilee during the lifetime of Jesus and the early years of Christian conversion that followed His resurrection. Anyone who has struggled with doubt and whose own faith has been tested will be inspired to learn how the members of a single household came to believe in miracles!

Book excerpt: For many years, award-winning journalist and author Cole Moreton has been involved in and worked alongside those offering relief and welcome to men, women and children arriving, in desperate straits, near his home on the south coast. Back in 2019, he wrote, 'The men, women and children risking their lives to cross the Channel in small boats are not aliens, invaders, migrants or some other lesser category of human to be dismissed. They are us.' Incarnation is a major theme of this exhilarating course. Mary and Joseph's search for a place to give birth to the son of God, and their terrifying flight to Egypt to escape the murderous intentions of King Herod, have clear echoes in the accounts Cole offers of contemporary journeys. And through his captivating exploration of Leaving Home, Fleeing Home, Carrying Home and Finding Home, we are enabled to reflect on our own need for guidance, sanctuary and comfort in the love of God, who ever walks beside us. For the first time ever, the course book is accompanied not only by a CD/audio download but also by a video, filmed on location by Monkeynut in a beautiful manor house outside Dover. Cole Moreton is joined in discussing the themes of Searching for Home by Bishop of Dover Rose Hudson-Wilkin, activist Bridget Chapman and Grmalem Gonetse Kasa, who came to the UK from Eritrea some years ago.

Download or read book The Answer written by Joseph Brice and published by BCMG. This book was released on 2024-07-20 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we pray! Have you ever prayed for something and later realized the answer you received wasn’t what you expected? It can be confusing and frustrating. Sometimes, we even reject the answer and pray again, convinced it couldn’t possibly be from God. Often, we miss the answers to our prayers because of our preconceived notions about how they should appear. When the solution doesn't match our expectations, we doubt its authenticity and seek an alternative that aligns with our imagination. However, it's crucial to understand that God's answers to our prayers may not always come in the form we anticipate. They might be disguised in unexpected situations or come from people we never thought could offer a solution. Keeping an open mind and trusting that "God’s ways are higher than ours" is essential. When we pray, we seek solutions for our immediate desires and needs. Yet, the effects of our prayers can extend far beyond our own lives. Our existence might be the answer to someone else’s prayers from centuries ago, highlighting the profound influence of prayer. Its responses can ignite hope and inspiration not just within us but also in those around us. The quest for a solution to a problem can be arduous and emotionally taxing, yet this distress can lead us to discover the solution. Conversely, we might endeavor to find a solution to someone else’s problem without realizing that we are the solution ourselves; we might be the answer to their prayer. This interconnectedness reminds us of the ripple effect our prayers can create. Before Jesus went to the cross, he saw a portion of his destiny as a filled cup in a collage of tests and trials. He prayed three times that this cup would pass him, as he did not want to drink from it. God did not answer him. However, during his third request, Jesus submitted to God’s will, saying, “Nevertheless, not my will, but your will be done.” When life becomes challenging and we yearn for a different answer from God, His silence can be our answer. God may not alter His will for our lives. Have you ever wondered if the answer to a question you've been grappling with is already out there? If we can formulate a question, God already has the answer. With God, the answer always precedes the question. He comprehends the end from the beginning and is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. The Scripture says, “The Lamb was slain before the foundations of the world,” reaffirming God’s omniscience and omnipotence and reminding us that He is perpetually in control. Before humanity ever sinned, the solution to the problem was already in place. God had already provided the Answer because He is the Answer. Everything we need is in Him. He is the thirst and the water that quenches the thirst. He is the air we breathe and the lungs that desperately need it. He is the hunger and the food that satisfies. He is everything we need and more. He is God! Be cautious not to dismiss your answered prayer simply because it doesn’t align with your expectations. This is a common pitfall, like the religious leaders known as the Pharisees, who missed out on salvation by not recognizing Jesus because He didn’t fit their preconceived image of a messiah. Similarly, we might overlook our blessings if we are too fixated on what "The Answer" should look like. Remember, we should do what we can and leave the things beyond our reach to God. Today, we face many challenges, and people want answers. When we pray, we should strive to have faith in God, knowing that Jesus is The Answer!
