Book Description
Though the title mentions letters of the alphabet, this book is not a children's book. No! It is a book for everyone because we all can learn more about Jesus. Names of Jesus from A to Z was written to give readers a better understanding of God the Father and Jesus, His beloved son. In the Baltimore Catechism #1, the question "Why did God make me?" is answered with the response, "God made me to know Him, to love Him, to serve Him in this world, and to be happy with Him forever in Heaven." It is our responsibility to know God. Scripture tells us in Peter 3:18, "But grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." Knowledge leads to love. Through Names of Jesus from A to Z we have a simple way to learn about God. The names and titles given to Jesus in Scripture provide a good description of God's love and mercy for mankind. Joseph G. Charles has been involved in Christian education for most of his life. He attended St. Patrick's School and St. Michael's High School in Brooklyn, New York. He graduated from Mount St. Mary's College in Emmitsburg, Maryland. Charles is a retired business executive, a 30 year veteran of human resources and employee benefit organizations.

I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die
Author: Sarah J. Robinson
Publisher: WaterBrook
ISBN: 0593193539
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.

Name Above All Names Devotional

Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
This beautiful original art print, Name Above All Names Alphabet, by Krista Hamrick so inspired author Beth Willis Miller that she wrote a devotional focusing on each of the 26 individual Names of Jesus Christ. Each of the 26 illustrations which Krista identified are so special, almost like stained glass windows, as Krista intricately painted each one with its Scripture reference. Beth's heart was drawn to write a devotional word study based on the Scripture reference for each of the 26 Names. Combining the beauty of Krista's artistic excellence with Beth's research of the Names, this devotional is perfect for individual quiet times or small group Bible studies focusing on the Name Above All Names--Jesus Christ--and His attributes and characteristics. Each of the 26 devotionals focusing on the Names of Christ closes with a practical application and personalized prayer, ending with reflection questions and takeaways. Example from "King of Zion" Practical Application: What does it mean to trust the Lord, the King of Zion? It means looking to Him as the source of our security and putting our faith in the grace, love, power, and protection of God when the inevitable pressures of life come. It means knowing as the psalmist did that as the mountains surround and protect Zion, the city of Jerusalem, God himself surrounds and shields His people. When we trust the Lord, we don't have to focus on the wicked and what they are doing or might do to us. We don't have to rehash our own woes. Even though there are problems the size of mountains facing us, we can cry out to the Lord who created the mountains and is able to move them. As we sing praises to Him, and focus on Him and His truth, He will encourage our hearts and help us to tell the nations about the great things He has done!Personalized Prayer: Lord Jesus, King of Zion, I put my trust in You today. You are my security and protection, my shield, my fortress, and my hiding place, and I sing praises to You. When enemies surround me and troubles multiply, help me to remember that you are ever faithful and that you surround and protect me, both now and forever. Thank You for the free gift of salvation, that we are justified on the basis of Your finished work on the Cross. Thank You that, right now, we are under the completely sufficient imputed righteousness of Christ. Because we have placed our trust in the finished work of Jesus Christ, we are redeemed by Your precious blood. The threat of failure, judgment, and condemnation has been removed. Knowing that God's love for us and approval of us will never be determined by our performance is the most encouraging promise to which we cling-what great things You have done! In Your mighty Name Above All Names-King of Zion, we pray, amen.Reflection Questions and Takeaways:Look Up-meditate on Psalm 9:11Look In-as you meditate on Psalm 9:11 pray to see how you might apply it to your life.Look Out-as you meditate on Psalm 9:11 pray to see how you might apply it to your relationships with others.Combining the beauty of Krista's artistic excellence with Beth's research of the Names, this devotional makes the perfect gift for individual quiet reflection or small group Bible studies focusing on the Name Above All Names--Jesus Christ--and His attributes and characteristics.

Original Blessing
Author: Danielle Shroyer
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 150642029X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
Of the worlds major religions, only Christianity holds to a doctrine of original sin. Ideas are powerful, and they shape who we are and who we become. The fact that many Christians believe there is something in human nature that is, and will always be, contrary to God, is not just a problem but a tragedy. So why do the doctrines assumptions of human nature so infiltrate our pulpits, sermons, and theological bookshelves? How is it so misconstrued in times of grief, pastoral care, and personal shame? How did we fall so far from Gods original blessing in the garden to this pervasive belief in humanitys innate inability to do good? In this book, Danielle Shroyer takes readers through an overview of the historical development of the doctrine, pointing out important missteps and overcalculations, and providing alternative ways to approach often-used Scriptures. Throughout, she brings the primary claims of original sin to their untenable (and unbiblical) conclusions. In Original Blessing, she shows not only how we got this doctrine wrong, but how we can put sin back in its rightful place: in a broader context of redemption and the blessing of humanitys creation in the image of God.
