Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two thousand years ago there was a man who wrote no books, created no art, ruled no country, won no battle, and invented no technology. He was born in a stable to a teenage mother and her poor husband. He lived in obscurity for thirty years as a carpenter until he began a ministry that lasted three meager years, until he was falsely accused as a criminal and put to death on a Roman cross. So why, two thousand years later, are we still talking about him? Why are the world's museums filled with paintings of him? Why do people still gather every week to hear stories about him? Why is his face still seen on magazines? Why are there entire libraries of books written about him? Because this man came back from the dead. I have not written this book convince you of that. I have written this book, first to tell you the story of this man, Jesus Christ, and the events surrounding his death and resurrection; and second, to tell you the implications of his resurrection are, if it really happened.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two thousand years ago there was a man who wrote no books, created no art, ruled no country, won no battle, and invented no technology. He was born in a stable to a teenage mother and her poor husband. He lived in obscurity for thirty years as a carpenter until he began a ministry among the Jewish people that lasted three meager years. At the end of those three years, he was falsely accused as a criminal and was put to death on a Roman cross. So why, two thousand years later, are we still talking about him? What on earth could this unremarkable man have done to earn himself such a long-lasting legacy? Why are the world's most famous museums filled with paintings of him? Why do people still gather every week to hear stories about him? Why is his face still seen on magazines? Why do music stores have entire sections devoted to him and why are there entire libraries of books written about him? Why is this man, of all people, the most famous that ever lived?Because this man came back from the dead.I have not written this book to try and convince you of that. I have written this book to do two things. First, I want to tell you the story of this man, Jesus Christ, and the events surrounding his death and resurrection. Second, I want to tell you what the implications of his resurrection are, if it really happened.
Book Synopsis Living Hope - A Collection for Holy Week and Easter by : Andy March
Download or read book Living Hope - A Collection for Holy Week and Easter written by Andy March and published by . This book was released on 2023-02-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I want to tell you the real story of Jesus the King and his crazy glory. He broke all the rules, didn't play by the book Want to know why? Well, let's take a look" In Living Hope: A Collection for Holy Week and Easter, Andy March invites us to take a fresh look at the events of Jesus and his followers' journey from the triumphant entry into Jerusalem, through to the devastation of Jesus' death on the cross, then to the unexpected joy and hope of that resurrection day. Through story and poetry, sermons and reflections, Living Hope will inspire, provoke, and give us a fresh understandingof the life-transforming power of Holy Week and Easter. May it lead us to a place of wonder and worship once more. "Fresh, creative, insightful and powerful meditations for Easter - grateful to this gifted writer for such a superb resource for personal or group study - I highly recommend this." Simon Ponsonby (Priest, Author, Teacher) From the Introduction ... Living Hope is not designed to be read front-to-back like a novel. See it more as something to be dipped into and enjoyed. Part 1 - Telling the Story A collection of monologues and sketches that seek to tell the familiar story in a new way, often from the perspective of the characters involved. These would be perfect for use in services and would work as stand-alone pieces. Part 2 - The Power of the Cross - Devotional Services for Good Friday Reflections (written from the perspectives of the characters involved) and prayers and interspersed with Bible readings from the Passion narratives in the Gospels. These were written for "Last Hour" services, taking place at 2pm on Good Friday. The Bible readings are part of the text to help you in your own devotions. Part 3 - Proclaiming Hope - The Message of Holy Week and Easter Sermons I have preached over the years on Gospel passages on the Passion (the period between Palm Sunday and Good Friday) and Resurrection of Jesus. These have been preached on ordinary Sundays during Lent and Easter season as well as Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Some are interspersed with the monologues that you will find elsewhere in the book. Part 4 - Easter for All Ages These are some of the all age talks I've written for our services on Easter Sunday. Hopefully these will inspire and help those who have the wonderful but challenging task of leading services and are looking for something fresh to say. Part 5 - Responding to Hope Poetry, which often forms my personal expression of worship in this season. My greatest challenge as a "professional Christian" is that I can be so focused on communicating the Good News to others that I fail to appreciate its meaning for myself. These poems flow from those times when I stop, reflect and worship. Part 6 - Journeying in Hope A four-week devotional for Holy Week and Easter that starts on Palm Sunday, containing Bible verses I selected and reflections I wrote on Twitter. You may want to use this to accompany your own devotions, perhaps at the end of the day.

Book Synopsis Reclaiming the Lost Art of Biblical Meditation by : Robert J. Morgan
Download or read book Reclaiming the Lost Art of Biblical Meditation written by Robert J. Morgan and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight. — Psalm 19:14 Do you long to deepen your intimacy with the Lord? To find a sense of soul-steadying peace? To develop emotional strength? Then you will need to pause long enough to be still and know He is God. Trusted Pastor Robert Morgan leads us through a journey into biblical meditation, which, he says, is thinking Scripture—not just reading Scripture or studying Scripture or even thinking about Scripture—but thinking Scripture, contemplating, visualizing, and personifying the precious truths God has given us. The practice is as easy and portable as your brain, as available as your imagination, as near as your Bible, and the benefits are immediate. As you ponder, picture, and personalize God’s Word, you begin looking at life through His lens, viewing the world from His perspective. And as your thoughts become happier and holier and brighter, so do you.
Book Synopsis From Dry Bones to Living Hope by : Missy Buchanan
Download or read book From Dry Bones to Living Hope written by Missy Buchanan and published by Upper Room Books. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the shadow side of aging is a reality, author Missy Buchanan brings spiritual light and nourishment to people in the later years of life. Older adults struggle with chronic pain and diminished physical abilities. They contend with losses that pile up like the dry bones in the prophet Ezekiel's vision—the loss of loved ones and friends, the loss of their home and belongings, the loss of independence, and the loss of purpose. In a culture that values youth more than age, older adults often feel forgotten and without purpose. Each chapter of From Dry Bones to Living Hope opens with an intimate, prayerful lament to God from the perspective of the older adult who longs for spiritual renewal and purpose. The authentic voice of lament establishes credibility with older readers who yearn for others to empathize with their struggles. The second part of each chapter, "Cultivating Hope," guides them to God's perspective on aging and specific actions they can take that lead to hope and joy.
Download or read book Daysprings written by Sam Portaro and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2000-05-25 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dayspring, my dictionary tells me, is an archaic word meaning 'dawn.' But I have chosen Daysprings as the title for this collection of meditations for the several meanings in the ancient word and its components. I hope these brief reflections shed new light on old, familiar passages and illuminate the way through new ones. I also hope these pieces will prove to be springboards to new and creative meditation for readers, pastors, and preachers, and that they will find within these pieces an extra buoyancy for each day. Lastly, I hope these thoughts will flow like fresh, living waters through days of fast and feast, bringing refreshment. --from the Preface In his accompanying volume to Brightest and Best: A Companion to the Lesser Feasts and Fasts, Sam Portaro offers meditations for each of the weekdays for the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week, and Easter. Following the lectionary texts for each day, he focuses on the seasonal themes of incarnation, manifestation, suffering, redemption, and resurrection, showing how the eternal truths of the gospel shed light on the ordinary and extraordinary events of our lives. Solidly grounded in the prayers and scriptures of these seasonal liturgies, Portaro's meditations bring fresh and powerful--sometimes pointed--insights for those who follow the daily readings and prayers of these days of the weeks in the church year as found in Lesser Feasts and Fasts.

Book Synopsis "Your Hearts Will Rejoice" by : Ludolph of Saxony
Download or read book "Your Hearts Will Rejoice" written by Ludolph of Saxony and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vita Christi, a spiritual classic of the fourteenth century by the Carthusian Ludolph of Saxony, was an early and extremely comprehensive book of meditations on the events recorded in the gospels. A popular and influential book for centuries, it was instrumental in the conversion of Ignatius Loyola, and Teresa of Avila directed that every convent of her reform include “the Carthusian” in its library. This volume, which consists of excerpts from the full Vita Christi (forthcoming from Cistercian Publications), presents Ludolph’s meditations on the resurrection and the appearances of the risen Christ, concluding with Pentecost. Although shelves of books are dedicated to Christ’s passion, comparatively little spiritual reading for the Easter Season exists. This book is intended to help fill that lacuna and to introduce readers to this classic text.
