Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's no sin to hurt. Thousands of Christians suffer real emotional pain--such as depression, anxiety, obsessiveness. Many other Christians, including prominent leaders, believe emotional problems are the result of sin or bad choices. These attitudes often only add to the suffering of those who hurt. In this book Dwight Carlson marshals recent scientific evidence that demonstrates many emotional problems are just as physical or biological as diabetes, cancer and heart disease. While he never discounts personal responsibility, Carlson shows from both the Bible and up-to-date medicine why it really is no sin to hurt. Understandably and compellingly, Why Do Christians Shoot Their Wounded? brings profound help for those who hurt and those who counsel. For those who suffer, here is a powerful liberation from guilt. For those who care for the suffering, here is vivid proof that those in emotional pain deserve compassion, not condemnation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a credit to Jesus Christ, who sustained the author through repeated and prolonged abuses of unmentionable proportions for several decades. The #1 purpose of this book is to glorify Jesus who is the Great Physician of impossible shatters, abuse, and heart-shreds, even amid emotional comatose and poly-fragmented dissociation. The #2 purpose of the book is to identify with the broken, rejected, and abused and to commend you all for your strength and survival. It is written as a voice for all the survivors of abuse and for those who may be currently trapped as a victim. It is written as a source of inspiration to offer hope to those who are on the healing journey, or desire to begin this journey to hope, healing, and freedom. The #3 purpose of the book is as a resource for those who are open-minded enough to be willing to learn how to understand and help the broken and abused and receive a deeper comprehension of the realities they face. We cannot correctly represent Jesus if we cannot see the abused and brokenhearted through His eyes and heart. When we truly see them through His heart and eyes, we will be propelled into compassionate action just as Jesus was. This book addresses and gives hope for abuse issues and aftermath on every level that many may prefer to shove under the carpet. This includes not only the various abuses out there but some of the aftermath such as extreme emotional agony, suicide, dissociation, rejection, PTSD, and satanic bondage. The enemy of our soul loves darkness and delights to feed on the unresolved anguish and footholds that are buried in his closets. With God’s help, the enemy and his tactics must be exposed and those whom he has wounded and/or holds captive must be freed, for he is defeated through the blood of the Great Physician, Jesus Christ!

Book excerpt: What can one man do? History is filled with world-changing events that turned on the hinge of a single person taking action. Their decisions and words shaped the world later generations came to inhabit. In The Power of One Man, author Ron Archer examines biblical figures who changed the world in which they lived, then applies those lessons to the challenges men face today—deftly weaving the narrative with stories of both failure and success in his own life in a way that is not only educational, but inspirational. Most of the social problems in our culture stem from an epidemic of fatherlessness. But as Ron’s own life demonstrates, God has a plan to redeem and restore those areas by redeeming and restoring men themselves—one individual at a time. What can God do with just one man? Anything He wants to—if you let Him.

Book excerpt: Understanding true faith can help you unlock your true potential as a follower of Jesus. True faith, however, may just be one of the most misunderstood concepts in our culture. We speak of having faith or being a person of faith, but in the biblical context, faith is as much a verb as it is a noun. Faith is something we do, how we walk and live. Indeed, there is a very practical element to faith, and the letter written by Jesus’ brother, James provides one of the most practical portraits of what real, everyday faith looks like. At times, the book of James will sound like it is contradicting the writings of Paul. At other times, the book of James feels like it is promoting a works-based salvation. However, when we truly dig deep into this letter, we can discover some incredibly helpful principles to make the faith we proclaim a faith that we truly live. James gives us a faith that is more than just belief. It is a faith beyond belief. Faith Beyond Belief digs into this book and pulls out nine such principles and shows you how to apply them to your Christian walk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Revitalizing Christianity takes the reader through ten areas where Christians misunderstand highly motivating Christian truths. This study guide is designed to work with an individual or group interested in seriously studying the Bible with the help of that book. Many Christians have doubts about the reality of God. Attacks, especially in the realm of science, have many questioning whether the God of the Bible is real. Without getting bogged down in the science, Mr. Webster provides simple assurance that the God of Christianity is the only real God. But the God of Christianity has gained a terrible reputation, and these books address how understanding the biblical message from God's perspective reveals a God who really is good and wonderful and even exciting. Mr. Webster addresses misunderstandings about Christian love and the nature of sin, saving faith, Christian hope (heaven), God's plan, the role of suffering, the role of prayer, the role of Christian forgiveness, and the role of the church, taking the reader back to the Bible over and over to show that Christianity was always meant to be exciting and good.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirituality has emerged as a prominent theme in contemporary culture. It is seen in issues as diverse as Eastern philosophies and religious awakenings; its psychological impact is apparent in alternative medicine, Alcoholics Anonymous, and meditation. In their own ways, each of these has helped people get relief from the problems psychiatrists often treat. But the mental health profession has generally ignored these isues, focusing on specific target symptoms, from anxiety to heavy drinking. Their efforts rely increasingy on medications and brief therapies as they succumb to the chilling influence of managed care. This raises an important question: Can the spiritual and professional, two perspectives that seem different, be reconciled? This book is designed to provide an answer to this question. It draws on recent findings in psychology, neuroscience, and innovative therapies to understand how people in America and worldwide express their spiritual needs. It then shows how the mentally ill, substance abusers, and people troubled by a sense that something is missing in their lives can be helped by developing a sense of personal meaning, while still benefitting from contemporary therapy and medications. Finally, it examines shortcomings in both the biomedical and spiritually-oriented approaches. The book draws on clinical experience and recent research studies, including the author's work over thirty years. This is enhanced by case studies drawn from patients, mental health professionals, the lay public, and even cult members. All this is brought together to create a vivid understanding of how mental health treatment can be made more effective by giving meaning to people's lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Viktor E. Frankl: The Man and His Message Philosopher of Meaning Viktor Emil Frankl was a philosopher of meaning. Even from his childhood days and into his adolescent years, Frankl was concerned with meaning. At the early age of four, he vividly remembered the thought of his own mortality. In his autobiography, he recalled: “... one evening just before falling asleep, I was startled by the unexpected thought that one day I too would have to die. What troubled me then – as it has done throughout my life – was not the fear of dying, but the question of whether the transitory nature of life might destroy its meaning.” Even as a teenager, Frankl was on a quest for meaning, searching for the answer to the question: “What is the meaning of life?” He wrote: “I well remember how I felt when I was exposed to reductionism in education as a junior high school student at the age of thirteen. Once our natural science teacher told us that life in the final analysis was nothing but a combustion process, an oxidation process, I sprang to my feet and said, ‘Professor Fritz, if this is the case, what meaning does life have?’” In 1921, as a high school student at the age of 16, he gave his first public lecture to an adult education school. It was entitled: “The Meaning of Life.” For Frankl, all of life was imbued with meaning, no matter what situation in which one may find oneself, no how well of ill (chronically or terminally ill) one was, no matter where one was along life’s journey, no matter how badly a person may have wrecked his or her life. In all of its various conditions, life still has meaning, as Frankl often said, “... every life, in every situation and to the last breath, has a meaning, retains a meaning.” He was emphatic: “The so-called life not worth living does not exist.” Frankl was an amazing man who had an amazing message to tell men and women in the 20th century. He was an extremely gifted human being: a physician, psychiatrist and philosopher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelicals are supposed to be experts at telling their story. From an early age you are expected to have a "testimony," a story of how God saved you from a life of sin and sadness and gave you a new life of joy and gladness. What happens if you don't have such a testimony? What if your story just doesn't fit the before-and-after mold? What are you supposed to do if your voice is not one usually heard? In these offbeat, witty, and often bittersweet essays, up-and-coming writers tell the truth about growing up female and evangelical. Whether they stayed in the church or not, evangelicalism has shaped their spiritual lives. Eschewing evangelical cliches, idyllic depictions of Christian upbringing, and pat formulas of sinner-to-saint transformation, these writers reflect frankly on childhoods filled with flannel board Jesuses, Christian "rap" music, and Bible memorization competitions. Along the way they find insight in the strangest places--the community swimming pool, Casey Kasem's American Top 40, and an Indian mosque. Together this collection of essays provides a vivid and diverse portrait of life in the evangelical church, warts and all.
