What He Must Be
Author: Voddie Baucham Jr.
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433520818
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
All parents want their daughters to marry godly young men. But which qualities, specifically, should they be looking for? What will you say when that certain young man sits down in your living room, sweaty-palmed and tongue-tied, and asks your permission to marry your daughter? What criteria should he meet before the two of them join together for life? What He Must Be... If He Wants to Marry My Daughter outlines ten qualities parents should look for in a son-in-law, including trustworthiness, a willingness to lead his family, an understanding of his wife's role, and various spiritual leadership qualities. Author Voddie Baucham follows up on his popular book Family Driven Faith with this compelling apologetic of biblical manhood. By studying the principles outlined in his book, parents who want their daughter to marry a godly man-as well as those who want their sons to become godly men-will be well equipped to help their children look for and develop these God-honoring qualities.

Book Description
ALICE FEENEYS NEW YORK TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER “Boldly plotted, tightly knotted—a provocative true-or-false thriller that deepens and darkens to its ink-black finale. Marvelous.” —AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

Gospelbound
Author: Collin Hansen
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 0593193571
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
A profound exploration of how to hold on to hope when our unchanging faith collides with a changing culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders. “Offers neither spin control nor image maintenance for the evangelical tribe, but genuine hope.”—Russell Moore, president of ERLC As the pressures of health warnings, economic turmoil, and partisan politics continue to rise, the influence of gospel-focused Christians seems to be waning. In the public square and popular opinion, we are losing our voice right when it’s needed most for Christ’s glory and the common good. But there’s another story unfolding too—if you know where to look. In Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra counter these growing fears with a robust message of resolute hope for anyone hungry for good news. Join them in exploring profound stories of Christians who are quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus—from the wild world of digital media to the stories of ancient saints and unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of justice and mercy. Discover how, in these dark times, the light of Jesus shines even brighter. You haven’t heard the whole story. And that’s good news.

Saved, Single and Pregnant

Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 164079025X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 123
Book Description
Saved, Single and Pregnant was inspired after I gave birth to my son as a single Christian woman over twenty three years ago. It addresses relationship issues, parenting struggles medical diagnoses, and triumph! Further, it speaks to how we can become unknowingly ensnared and perpetually entrapped. Transparency, I believe, is necessary in order to set people free from their bondages. My purpose is to give hope to the hopeless, discouraged, powerless or naïve. As I share my life's journey to date, I am hopeful and prayerful as others read my story and testimony they will be strengthened and encouraged that they can overcome their valley experiences. I believe with truth, acknowledgement, education and cooperation along with prayer and obedience one can be victorious in life. Life is not perfect for any of us. I heard someone say "we have all been dealt a difficult hand, the true test is how well we play the hand we have been dealt. Grace and Peace!
