Book Description
We are all in pursuit of something. Faith Hounds: A Relentless Pursuit shows what we should pursue and, even more, how to get it. The number one issue people seem to have with the concept of faith is that they think it is ineffective. The common phrase is, "Well I tried to believe, but it did not work." By using biblically backed truths, this book goes into detail on what God says about pursing him and his promises, walking the reader through the process of when they first set their hearts to ask God for something until it finally shows in their life, while also addressing the possible hindrances that could be stopping them from seeing their answer. If you or someone you know is tired of seeing nothing come from praying or has completely abandoned the concept of God and faith, give this book a read. It will change your world and set a fire in your belly to be a relentless faith hound and pursue everything the Lord has for you.

The Faith of Christopher Hitchens
Author: Larry Alex Taunton
Publisher: HarperChristian + ORM
ISBN: 0718022181
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
2016 Winner of the Gospel Coalition Book Awards At the time of his death, Christopher Hitchens was the most notorious atheist in the world. And yet, all was not as it seemed. “Nobody is not a divided self, of course,” he once told an interviewer, “but I think it’s rather strong in my case.” Hitchens was a man of many contradictions: a Marxist in youth who longed for acceptance among the social elites; a peacenik who revered the military; a champion of the Left who was nonetheless pro-life, pro-war-on-terror, and after 9/11 something of a neocon; and while he railed against God on stage, he maintained meaningful—though largely hidden from public view—friendships with evangelical Christians like Francis Collins, Douglas Wilson, and the author Larry Alex Taunton. In The Faith of Christopher Hitchens, Taunton offers a very personal perspective of one of our most interesting and most misunderstood public figures. Writing with genuine compassion and without compromise, Taunton traces Hitchens’s spiritual and intellectual development from his decision as a teenager to reject belief in God to his rise to prominence as one of the so-called “Four Horsemen” of the New Atheism. While Hitchens was, in the minds of many Christians, Public Enemy Number One, away from the lights and the cameras a warm friendship flourished between Hitchens and the author; a friendship that culminated in not one, but two lengthy road trips where, after Hitchens’s diagnosis of esophageal cancer, they studied the Bible together. The Faith of Christopher Hitchens gives us a candid glimpse into the inner life of this intriguing, sometimes maddening, and unexpectedly vulnerable man. “If everyone in the United States had the same qualities of loyalty and care and concern for others that Larry Taunton had, we'd be living in a much better society than we do.” ~ Christopher Hitchens

Faith Like a Dog
Author: Tom Saunders
Publisher: Covenant Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1685264042
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 83
Book Description
What is faith? What does true faith look like? Many people profess to have faith in God. It’s true that faith comes much easier to some people than it does for others. But what does genuine faith truly look like? The Bible tells us that faith means putting our full confidence in the things we hope for, it means being certain of things we cannot see. Is that even possible? That’s the kind of faith God wants us to have in Him. He wants us to trust our entire existence to Him. Every need, every want, every desire, He wants us to trust that He will provide for us. He doesn’t say He will give us whatever we ask for; He says He will provide for our needs and look after those who trust in Him. Can we really trust God for our every need? It’s hard to imagine what that type of faith might look like to most of us, but many of us have perfect examples of that type of faith living in our homes—our pets, more specifically our dogs! Obviously, our children rely on us to provide for them, but as they grow, they become less dependent on us as parents. Dogs, however, are completely dependent on us from the time we bring them home to the day they die...they count on us to provide for their every need. They must have complete faith in us to provide for them no matter what they need from food to hygiene to companionship and love; they have—must have—complete faith and trust that we will provide for them, that we won’t let them down. That’s the kind of faith God wants us to have in Him. Isn’t that what true faith looks like? If we claim to be believers, isn’t that what our faith in God should look like? Shouldn’t we have complete faith that God will meet our every need no matter how big or how small? Faith that demonstrates an unwavering trust that God will never let us down...shouldn’t we have faith like a dog?

Book Description
When an eerie high-frequency pitch is the calling card of a methodical killer, FBI Agent Faith Bold and her canine companion are thrust into a deadly game of silence and screams. Can Faith and Turk break the code before the next victim hears their final note? “A masterpiece of thriller and mystery.” —Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Once Gone) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SO SILENT is Book #15 in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 7,000 five star ratings and reviews.

Suffering from past demons, she feels unfit for duty and content to retire—until Turk walks into her life. Turk, a former Marine Corps dog, wounded in battle, suffers from his own demons. But he never lets it show as he gives everything to Faith to get her back on her feet. Each are slow to warm up to each other, but when they do, they are inseparable. Each is equally determined to hunt down the demons chasing them, whatever the cost, and to watch each other’s backs—even at the risk of their own life.

Pages : 161
Book Description
A successful American surgeon gives away everything he owns and moves to Russia to keep a promise he made to God when he was fourteen. . . and finds unexpected joy. Doctor Bill Becknell moved to Russia and, despite not speaking the language, began providing medical care to people in the villages above the Arctic Circle. He traveled by truck, snowmobile, reindeer sleigh, and helicopter to reach people who had never seen a doctor or heard about Jesus—people who told him that they’ve been waiting all their lives for someone to explain who created the stars in the night sky. Every trip he made was an adventure. Despite extreme hardships, brokenness, sacrifices, and even near-death experiences along the road, Bill discovered that God has an unfailing love that is beyond comprehension. This is the true story of one man’s journey to confront and understand the suffering, pain, confusion, and despair that challenge our lives. Sorrow is a part of living, but how we handle the tragedy in our lives makes all the difference. This book was written to encourage us not to be afraid to step into the unknown abyss of faith. “This book about battles of faith . . . will be an encouragement to everyone who reads it.” —Ingeborg Fuhrhop-Stetzler, president, Agape Germany
