Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Curl up in a cozy corner with a collection of experiences from a preacher's kid (PK) viewpoint. These stories have simmered for over twenty years in scribbled form, squeezed out between life's more pressing responsibilities. Papa always thought if he could not do the job at a church in two years, it was time to move to another church. So we girls had many fresh adventures and met many different kinds of people in the ten churches he served while we were growing up. Our parents taught us biblical principles by their example in life situations. They walked the talk before it was a popular phrase. They demonstrated the fruit of the Spirit in their daily lives. Sit back and experience life adventures through the eyes of a PK.

Pages : 152
Book Description
"Why did Papa offer me to the Lord to become a preacher?" Samuel Grant wonders. "My brother Toby would be much better than me. Things come easier for him than they do me." His sister Hallie's confession to taking the red string off the wrist of the older brother when the twins were toddlers adds more confusion to Samuel's dilemma. Hallie doesn't know if she put the string back on the right brother's arm. Now what will happen? "Maybe I'm not Samuel. Maybe I can live a normal life and get married to Katrina." The brothers live in a state of uncertainty while waiting for their true identity to be uncovered. On the way to finding out which twin is the older one, the Grant siblings endure hair-raising experiences, such a helping birth a baby, concealing the mother's whereabouts, caring for the newborn until the mother decides what she'll do with the infant, and an impromptu wedding. These and more challenges strengthen the character of the young man who was actually offered to the Lord in Papa's Vow.

Look and Live
Author: Matt Papa

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Only One Addiction Can Set You Free Matt Papa was a "professional Christian" in full-time ministry, ready and determined to change the world. All the while he was depressed, addicted to the approval of others, and enslaved to sin. But then everything changed. He encountered the glory of God. All of us live in the tension between where we are and where we ought to be. We try our best to bully our desires into submission. And we all know, this is exhausting. Are you tired? Stuck? Still fighting the same sin you've been fighting for years? The call in these pages is not to work or to strive, but to lift your eyes. You don't need more willpower. You need a vision of greatness that sweeps you off your feet. You need to see glory. Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Look and Live. "Matt has helped me see that love for God grows out of an experience of beholding the love of God. We burn only as we behold. . . . This is a fantastic book and I commend it to you with the most enthusiastic support."--from the Foreword by J.D. Greear "Matt Papa cares about the glory of God, and you can sense that zeal on every page of this dynamic book. He also cares about you and me getting to grips with that glory. . . . Matt guides us through these pages with kindness, seriousness, and love--for God's greater glory and our greater good."--Matt Redman, songwriter and worship leader "Making our lives about one unflinching gaze upon the glory of Christ--what a vision Matt Papa has put before us. I encourage everyone to read this book!"--Tony Merida, pastor, professor, and author "Matt Papa's book is a snakebite kit for suffering sinners. Each sentence of Look and Live extracts Satan's deadly venom and resuscitates the soul with the life-giving power of the glory of God!"--Tony Nolan, snakebite survivor, author, and gospel preacher "To journey through this book is to go on a quest that will awaken our souls to the reality of the One who is 'majestic in holiness' and 'awesome in glorious deeds.'"--Dr. Brent Crowe, author, speaker, and vice president of Student Leadership University "I have been wonderfully blessed by Matt Papa's friendship and ministry. I am grateful his reflections on worship are now shared in Look and Live. It is biblically faithful and keeps the focus of worship where it belongs: on our glorious God."--Daniel L. Akin, president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary "Matt Papa faithfully points us to the soul-stirring glory of God. Read this book and allow your heart to once again behold the wondrous mystery."--Matt Boswell, founder of Doxology & Theology, and pastor of ministries and worship at Providence Church, Frisco, Texas "This is Matt's life message--that Jesus Christ alone is worth living for, and that when you gaze upon His majesty and glory you will never be the same. This book is theologically robust and practically helpful, packed with Scripture and insight into the person and work of the risen Son of God. . . . This is a true gift to the church."--Clayton King, president of Crossroads Camps and Clayton King Ministries "If C. S. Lewis and David Crowder wrote a book together about worship, you would have the rich theology of the great Christian apologist with the deep passion of worship from the contemporary artist. That's what Matt Papa has given us in Look and Live--a must-read for every worshiper."--Mike Harland, president of LifeWay Worship
