Book Description
Every human heart longs to be truly known and deeply loved. Each person has a God-given longing for fulfillment and a sense of belonging that is met only in a relationship with God. But does God really want a relationship with you? Yes, and He demonstrates His desire for that relationship over and over again in Scripture. Constant Companion is an exploration of practical wisdom for growing this intimate relationship with God. Drawing from scriptural references, personal anecdotes, and spiritual wisdom, author Ami Loper emphasizes that our desire for belonging is not a coincidence and is, instead, a reflection of God’s own yearning for an intimate relationship with each of us. Throughout history, humanity has sought various means of satisfying this need, yet ultimate fulfillment lies only in embracing the loving presence of a constant Companion—God. This book will show you how to get past feelings of unworthiness, unwillingness, and other distractions and how to listen to God’s voice through the practices of meditation, prayer, and Scripture-reading. Constant Companion is a stirring invitation to embrace our deepest yearnings and embark on a transformative journey to bask in the awe of His abiding presence.

I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
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.
