Can't You Talk Louder, God
Author: Steve Shultz
Publisher: Destiny Image Publishers
ISBN: 0768499852
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
ARE YOU TALKING TO ME? How many times have you felt God trying to speak to you and yet you feel like you're hearing nothing? Who hasn't asked, "God, can't you talk louder? I just want to know what to do!" The reality is that all of God's sheep, in every denomination, already hear God's voice--every day! Steve Shultz uncovers the many Scriptures "hidden in plain sight," as he likes to say. These clear, yet often forgotten passages contain easy answers to the questions you've asked, or wish you could ask, about hearing God's voice. Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. ...everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort (1 Corinthians 14:1, 3 NIV). Learn how you can tune in to what God has to say personally to you! You don't even have to believe in prophecy. It's not the term "prophecy" that's the problem, but how it's defined. The wisdom in this book speaks on a "vulnerable" level through the author's exciting and dramatic real-life stories. The series of questions and answers by themselves made this book worth more than the cost.

The Beatitudes are not telling you how to become a Christian—they tell you what a true Christian looks like. Everyone wants to be blessed. We want to be blessed in life, blessed in death, and blessed in eternity. In the Beatitudes, the Son of God tells us about the life that is blessed and about the people who are blessed. But Jesus does more than just describe a blessed life, He gives us a way to actually pursue it.

And if you have lost hope that any of these things are possible, this book is especially for you. You can make progress, starting today.

God's Megathemes
Author: Jim Phillips
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 9781973654025
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
There are many truths in scripture that are never explicitly stated yet are present in every story in the Bible. For example, we miss God's best for us when we are disobedient, and when God acts, it always results in the greatest good, for the greatest number, for the longest period of time. But while these and other truths are available for us, there may not always be an explicit chapter and verse of the Bible to consult. In God's Megathemes, author Jim Phillips identifies over twenty "megathemes" of scripture-those principles, lessons, ideas, and truths that are never explicitly stated but that pervade the Lord's message to us. Arranged under six major themes for your spiritual growth, these megathemes range from themes of the trustworthiness of God and his Word, the destructiveness of sin, and the goodness of the gospel to what it means to live a Christlike life, how God provides for us, and what kind of adversity we face as followers of Jesus. Knowing these truths will affect your deepest convictions about who God is, what God does, and why he does it. God's Megathemes will help any who want to know God better to find the spiritual nourishment they need from uncovering the truths of God's Word.
