Book excerpt: If God is so good why do you feel so bad? Haven't your preachers, parents and Sunday school teachers told you that if you invite God into your heart and follow His commands that He'll bless you and protect you? Do you feel blessed and protected? In this raw and conversational book we will make sense of why all of the time, effort and sacrifice you've poured into your relationship with God hasn't paid off yet. I want to help you feel better while you wait. I know it feels like others are experiencing more fun and living a more exciting life while you're handcuffed to the commitments that you've made to God. You're not going to get any argument from me telling you that you're wrong to feel that way. I know what a letdown it is to read in the Bible how God is supposed to love, protect and support you if you dedicate yourself to him, then struggle everyday with loneliness, confusion, and boredom. I've been right where you are; it feels like your parents, preachers, teachers, and even God himself, has tricked you. You're a teen or young adult that has been promised a fulfilling, abundant life, but what you've experienced in your Christian walk hasn't matched what you've been taught. I understand. I'm glad we're meeting here, at this fork in the road. I can't promise you that this book will magically change your popularity, relationship status or bank account, but I can help you feel better while you wait. I agree with you that the wait is hard and the end of the tunnel seems a long way off, but: You can feel better while you wait on God You're not alone in this struggle You're right, the life God has promised you isn't the life you're living You can adjust a few small things that will bring you some joy and peace I'm not a psychologist or clueless adult that is going to preach at you. I'm just a former kid that remembers what it was like to struggle. This book has no lesson plans or hidden agendas, just a few Easter eggs per chapter that you will discover. Even if you don't follow a single word of my advice, you're going to feel better just by reading this book. We're in this struggle together. So what's stopping you from taking a chance on reading someone different? You've tried interpreting those sermons from your preacher and lectures from your parents, but your success has been limited. Why not give somebody who speaks your language a try? Scroll to the top and click the "buy now" button.

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 excerpt: Waiting Here for You helps us anticipate rather than dread the busy season of Advent and Christmas. Life is full of waiting – we can’t escape it. We find ourselves in the middle of it every day – waiting on a prognosis to be given…a verdict to be reached…a promotion to be announced. And in these seasons of waiting that anxiety, desperation and hopelessness creep in. Waiting Here For You takes us through the advent – the season of waiting. In it we see the story of the coming of Jesus. It teaches us that waiting is the means God often uses to carry his plans in our lives. And it brings us back to the truth that our waiting is never wasted when we are waiting on God. Join pastor and author Louie Giglio and take hold of the chance to uncover the vast hope offered through the journey of Advent. Find peace and encouragement for your soul as anticipation leads toward celebration! Waiting is not wasted when it is waiting with the Lord.

Book excerpt: What if the solution for the decline of today's church isn't more money, people, programs, innovation, or busyness? What if the answer is to stop and wait on God? In When Church Stops Working, ministry leaders Andrew Root and Blair Bertrand show how actively watching and listening for God can bring life out of death for churches in crisis today. Using clear steps and practices, they invite church leaders to stop the endless cycle of doing more and rather to simply "be" in God's presence. They tell the story of two congregations who did this--and found new life in the process. When Church Stops Working distills the core themes of Root's critically acclaimed Ministry in a Secular Age series in a more accessible form. Leaders and churchgoers who are burned out and hopeless will experience affirmation, encouragement, and empowerment as Root and Bertrand turn to the book of Acts as well as examples from contemporary congregational life to show what "active" waiting looks like and the saving grace it can hold.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up the son of agnostics, John Koessler saw a Catholic church on one end of the street and a Baptist on the other. In the no-man’s land between the two, this curious outside wondered about the God they worshipped—and began a lifelong search to comprehend the grace and mystery of God. A Stranger in the House of God addresses fundamental questions and struggles faced by spiritual seekers and mature believers. Like a contemporary Pilgrim’s Progress, it traces the author’s journey and explores his experiences with both charismatic and evangelical Christianity. It also describes his transformation from religious outsider to ordained pastor. John Koessler provides a poignant and often humorous window into the interior of the soul as he describes his journey from doubt and struggle with the church to personal faith

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I felt inspired by the Holy Spirit to write this book, based on my very own experience of not waiting and acknowledging God concerning my mate. As a result of my disobedience to God, I suffered some heartaches and pain. Why? Because I failed to obey God. I was forewarned that the man I would marry was not my husband, but I chose to marry him anyway. Although God will warn us, it is up to us to take heed. Warning comes before destruction. Even before I entered into my marriage there were lies, deceit, and infidelity, but I chose to ignore all the warning signs. That's what happens when that fleshly nature takes over. The worst concept we as single saved women or men can have is that we can change them. Beloved, they have to want change. Only God can change an individual's heart. Be willing to wait, let God give you what you need rather than what you want. Be willing to wait on God, he knows what is best for each of us, after all he created us. Don't make the mistake I did, know that you are worth waiting for. Blessings.

And the place between His answers can feel like a wasteland where dreams—and faith—go to die. When we’re waiting, we wonder, “Why?”, “Why me?”, and “How long?” But the truth? . . . When God says, “Wait,” He doesn’t tell us for how long. When God says, “Wait,” we face one of life’s greatest tests. When God says, “Wait,” we have decisions to make. When God says, “Wait,” we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way. Author Elizabeth Laing Thompson invites you to walk alongside people of the Bible who had to wait on God. . .imperfect heroes like David, Miriam, Naomi, Sarah, Joseph, and others.

They might even help you learn to enjoy the ride. This book is about the journey of waiting, the space between answers, and the people we become while we live there.

Book excerpt: Everybody waits, but nobody likes to wait. Waiting feels like a waste of time, an unnecessary exercise in patience, or a foreboding sense that something bad is about to happen. More than we realize, we have grown accustomed to filling our desires instantaneously, and we have taught ourselves to miss out on one of the most rewarding exercises in all of life. The Bible has much to say about waiting. Commands, encouragements, examples, and promises for waiting saturate God's Word. To wait on God is to entrust ourselves to His perfect care, to apply faith in the midst of unchanging circumstances, to trust God's plan over time, and to eagerly anticipate future realities which are being perfectly prepared for us. The reward of waiting is immeasurable joy in God. He dispenses all good things to His children according to His infinite resources and His flawless timing. Waiting on God fuels our pilgrimage through this life, kindles our affections for eternal realities, bolsters our fight against sin, disarms our hearts' idols, and best of all, culminates in our being forever in the presence of our great, glorious, and gracious God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world of fast-food meals, high-speed Internet and quick solutions, waiting is tough. Sometimes, if we don’t get a quick answer to our problems—wanting a child, a mate, a new job, a house–we feel stuck. Where is God? Has he forgotten us? No, says Marlinda Ireland, God has not forgotten! We may be caught in a “divine delay,” a time of waiting which holds a purpose and is an opportunity to learn enduring lessons. Learn from the biblical stories of men and women who persevered in waiting for God and discover four primary causes of delayed answers to prayer. Then, learn three secrets that help readers mature during a “heavenly holding pattern.” Ireland shows how to value a time of waiting for what is desired, and offers encouragement and confidence in God’s all-knowing love. Step-by-step, through sound biblical principles, she lifts readers out of their frustrations into a renewed passion for the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When things really go wrong, what do you do with the feeling that God is to blame? A popular Coast to Coast radio host (and Episcopal clergy) provides some answers. In a first of its kind book, Ian Punnett provides a spiritual path for expressing your rawest emotions through prayer and how to rebuild a relationship with one's higher power--or anybody else in your life. In this important and practical book, Ian Punnett provides insight on feeling anger and resentment toward God and offers advice on how to deal with the pain and blame that accompanies these emotions. In a book that is edgy, timely, funny and compassionate, Punnett presents real help in everyday language for transforming the negativity of anger into a positive and useful force that will ultimately help us pray more effectively, bring us closer to God, enhance our spiritual relationship, and change the way we live and love others. After a divorce, a broken friendship, the death of a loved one, the loss of a job or even the accumulation of all the tiny cracks in our spirit from life's disappointments, it’s easy to feel pissed at God. When anger is left unchecked, it is harmful to our minds, bodies and souls. “How to Pray When You’re Pissed at God is not “the last word” on angry prayer,” Punnett writes, “but it might be the first words you have ever heard on the topic. By the end of the book, it is my hope that you’ll understand the role of anger in our lives, the benefit of honest prayer, and the need for honest, angry prayer in the lives of the faithful and faithless.”
