Download or read book Spiritual Ambitions written by Tom Schulte and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-01-05 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our ambitions determine the kind of person we become, and the kind of person we become determines what we will do in life. And since what we do in life can have lastingeven eternalresults, its no surprise that many of us strive to reach our ambitions. Yet while we can be consumed with pursuing worldly, secular ambitions for career and family, our spiritual ambitions are too often left to chance as we drift through life. Spiritual Ambitions: How Rich Do You Want to Be in Eternity? challenges us to identify our spiritual ambitions and evaluate their genuine importance to our lives. Whether you want to start a ministry, become a pastor, or just be more mindful of Gods presence in your life, author Tom Schulte shows you how to set your ambitions and listen for Gods guidance to follow the path he sets out before you. To be used by God to fulfill his purpose is the greatest reward and victory we can have as Christians, but first we must be the kind of person who is pleasing to God. Therefore, we must develop our spiritual ambitions and make them our priority in life, proving to ourselves and to God that we are receptive and ready to heed the call and be touched by Gods Spirit.

Book Synopsis Spiritual Discipleship by : J. Oswald Sanders
Download or read book Spiritual Discipleship written by J. Oswald Sanders and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Take time and trouble to keep yourself spiritually fit.” — 1 Tim. 4:7, J. B. Phillips Translation As J. Oswald Sanders points out, true discipleship is more than intellectual assent to a belief in Christ; it involves the whole person and lifestyle. True disciples pursue their Master. They know that God is watching over their faith, but they also take Scripture’s command seriously: “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you.” They take pains, by His power, to look more and more like Jesus. This book will help you to be such a disciple. It examines Jesus’ teaching on what it means to follow Him, helping you become the kind of Christian Jesus wants you to be—not one devised by man or even other Christians. You’ll learn: The profile of an ideal disciple Conditions for discipleship The tests that disciples endure How disciples pray and grow The posture and practices of a disciple And more For anyone who wants to be not just a believer in Christ, but an imitator of Him, this book is a treasured resource. Includes questions for reflection, ideal for both individual and group study.

Book Synopsis The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by : John Mark Comer
Download or read book The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry written by John Mark Comer and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ECPA BESTSELLER • A compelling emotional and spiritual case against hurry and in favor of a slower, simpler way of life “As someone all too familiar with ‘hurry sickness,’ I desperately needed this book.”—Scott Harrison, New York Times best-selling author of Thirst “Who am I becoming?” That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. Outwardly, he appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren’t pretty. So he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life.” It wasn’t the response he expected, but it was—and continues to be—the answer he needs. Too often we treat the symptoms of toxicity in our modern world instead of trying to pinpoint the cause. A growing number of voices are pointing at hurry, or busyness, as a root of much evil. Within the pages of this book, you’ll find a fascinating roadmap to staying emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in the chaos of the modern world.
Book Synopsis The Practical Steps to the Deeper Spiritual Life by : Larry Mehaffey
Download or read book The Practical Steps to the Deeper Spiritual Life written by Larry Mehaffey and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-01-23 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In attempting to more effectively communicate the principles of spiritual life to those who sincerely desire a deeper reality in their walk with Christ, I have discovered that most people appreciate practical and straightforward instructions, and this is especially true when it involves the mystical nature of spiritual life. Although spiritual life is not meritoriously attained through natural means or human effort, there are several Practical Steps that can be taken to help facilitate the practice of spiritual disciplines. The combination of these Practical Steps with the spiritual disciplines themselves will work to promote a dynamic life of faith that will effectively bring the believer into a productive and rewarding relationship with God. Man is an intentional creation of divine wisdom explicitly designed to fulfill a sacred purpose: Agape love requires a soul to empty the wealth of its humanity upon the altar of God as a willing sacrifice If determination is to live up to its potential in promoting the spiritual life , it must be united with some very fundamental practical steps Heaven should not be a culture shock to the consciousness of the believer; it should be a gradual final step into the glorious reality of a spiritual life whose progress began at conversion Divine pleasure must be the goal of human effort, not divine favor The genuineness of what we actually believe is nowhere so obviously exposed as in our daily schedules It does not take overtly carnal acts to corrupt the days of a mans life, for inattention and idleness produce the same result as evil actions or wicked intentions Liberty must always precede service if either are to be authentic It is our great love for the Father, not our initial desire for salvation, that motivates and liberates the sincere believer to live a life of chosen obedience to God
Book Synopsis Age of Ambition: Chasing Fortune, Truth, and Faith in the New China by : Evan Osnos
Download or read book Age of Ambition: Chasing Fortune, Truth, and Faith in the New China written by Evan Osnos and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2014-05-13 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize in General Nonfiction finalist Winner of the 2014 National Book Award in nonfiction. As the Beijing correspondent for The New Yorker, Evan Osnos was on the ground in China for years, witness to profound political, economic, and cultural upheaval. Age of Ambition provides a vibrant, colorful, and revelatory inner history of China during a moment of profound transformation. From abroad, we often see China as a caricature: a nation of pragmatic plutocrats and ruthlessly dedicated students destined to rule the global economy-or an addled Goliath, riddled with corruption and on the edge of stagnation. What we don't see is how both powerful and ordinary people are remaking their lives as their country dramatically changes. In Age of Ambition, Osnos describes the greatest collision taking place in that country: the clash between the rise of the individual and the Communist Party's struggle to retain control. He asks probing questions: Why does a government with more success lifting people from poverty than any civilization in history choose to put strict restraints on freedom of expression? Why do millions of young Chinese professionals-fluent in English and devoted to Western pop culture-consider themselves "angry youth," dedicated to resisting the West's influence? How are Chinese from all strata finding meaning after two decades of the relentless pursuit of wealth? Writing with great narrative verve and a keen sense of irony, Osnos follows the moving stories of everyday people and reveals life in the new China to be a battleground between aspiration and authoritarianism, in which only one can prevail. An Economist Best Book of 2014. Winner of the bronze medal for the Council on Foreign Relations’ 2015 Arthur Ross Book Award

Download or read book The Shift written by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times best-selling author of Excuses Begone! The Shift—the book inspired by the movie of the same name—illustrates how and why to make the move from ambition to meaning. Download The Shift and allow these lessons to guide you down a more authentic and rewarding path today. As we contemplate leaving the morning of our life, where ego has played a commanding role, and entering the afternoon (and evening), where meaning and purpose replace ambition and struggle, we may encounter unexpected occurrences that accompany this new direction. It’s almost a universal law that we’ll experience a fall of some kind. Yet these falls or low points provide the energy we need to move away from ego and into a life of meaning and purpose. The Shift doesn’t mean that we lose our drive and ambition; it signifies that we become ambitious about something new. We make a commitment to living a life based on experiencing meaning and feeling purposeful, rather than a life based on never-ending demands and false promises that are the trademark of the ego’s agenda.
