Book Description
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER • The question isn't whether God speaks. The question is what does He have to say to you? The New York Times bestselling author of The Circle Maker teaches readers how to listen to God. WINNER OF THE ECPA CHRISTIAN BOOK AWARD FOR CHRISTIAN LIVING The voice that spoke the cosmos into existence is the same voice that parted the Red Sea, and made the sun stand still in the midday sky. One day, this voice will make all things new, but it’s also speaking to you now! That voice is God’s voice, and what we’ve learned from Scripture is that He often speaks in a whisper. Not to make it difficult to hear Him, but to draw us close. Many people have a tough time believing God still speaks. Sure, in ancient times and in mysterious ways, God spoke to His people, but is He still speaking now? Mark Batterson certainly believes so. And he wants to introduce you to the seven love languages of God; each of them unique and entirely divine. Some of them you might suspect but others will surprise you. By learning to tune in to and decipher each language, you’ll be able to hear His guidance in simple as well as life-altering choices. God is actively speaking through: Scripture, Desires, Doors, Dreams, People, Promptings, and Pain. Batterson gives you the tools you need to unlock each of these languages. God’s whisper can answer your most burning questions, calm your deepest fears, and fulfill your loftiest dreams. Discover how simple it is to hear God’s voice in every aspect of your life! He’s speaking, make sure you know how to listen!

Book Description
Christians who want to take the next step in their faith walk need look no further. It's time to ante up and go all in with God. The Gospel costs nothing. You can't earn it or buy it. It can only be received as a free gift, which is compliments of God's grace. It doesn't cost anything, but it demands everything. It demands that we go "all in," putting all that we have into God's hands. But why do so many Christians hesitate to do that? And when did we start believing that the Gospel is an insurance plan? We're afraid that if we go all in that we might miss out on what life has to offer. But Jesus did not die to keep us safe. He died to make us dangerous. So, let's step out of spiritual no man's land and kneel at the foot of the cross of Christ and surrender to his lordship. It's time to dethrone yourself and enthrone Christ as king, and Pastor Mark Batterson is here to show you how. Using his customary vivid, contemporary illustrations, as well as biblical characters like Shamgar, Elisha, Jonathan, and even Judas, you will be challenged to trade what Batterson calls "inverted Christianity" for true discipleship as you strip away your excuses and inhibitions and follow God completely. It's now or never. Are you ready to go all in and all out for God? Also available: All In student edition, video curriculum, and study guide.

Book Description
Where Peaceful Waters Flow Words of Encouragement Devotional is filled with God's loving words to His children. The devotional is written as if the Lord is ministering to you Himself with refreshing words of comfort to feed your weary and wounded soul. These encouraging words will minister, restore and revive you. Use this devotional during your quiet with the Lord as you sit with Him each day. Read it during that special time with the Lord, when you shut out everything and everybody to dwell in His presence. As you allow the Lord to come into your quiet conversation every day, your relationship with Him will grow stronger and stronger. You can also use this devotional as you are meditating and giving the Lord your “first fruits” of the day; you will find yourself handling things easier because you have spent time with Him first. You see, with our Lord, it is not about how much money you give, it is about honoring Him with your very best, and keeping Him first. Honoring the Lord with your best will enrich your life in a way in which you have never known. The words of encouragement included this book were ministered to me throughout the 10 years of my writing ministry. It took a lot of praying to find out how the Lord wanted me to put this book together, and which messages to include in the book, because there were so many wonderful messages He had given me over the years. Therefore, Where Peaceful Waters Flow” is divided into two parts. The first part of the devotional book is entitled, “BE STILL," and it's filled with words of encouragement for your time when you are meditating and prayerfully sitting at His Feet.The second part of the devotional book is entitled, “ARISE Praying with The Father In the Midnight Hour” and it is filled with responses received from the Holy Spirit during prayer and intercession times in the midnight hour.If you want to experience the Lord, like never before; then come and allow these words of encouragement to usher you into His presence. Come and sit at His feet; be still and know that He is God. It is time for us to get back to an intimate relationship with Jesus. Get ready to dwell in the presence of the Lord and be refreshed, renewed and strengthen, as the Lord pours His refreshing oil over you to revive your weary soul. Come inside to Where Peaceful Waters Flow.

Book Description
Terry Hershey, a popular author and retreat leader, understands that slowing down is difficult when you live in a fast-forward world. However, he also knows from personal experience that there is always a price to pay if we don't regularly take time simply to pause--to cease activity, to treasure quiet time, and to discern the deep meaning of life's little moments. In The Power of Pause, Hershey uses powerful stories and meditations, inspiring quotes, and a specific call to action at the end of each chapter to help us understand the profound value of slowing down in our daily lives and taking time for the truly important things. Over the course of 52 brief chapters, we learn how to take back the life God always intended for us to have by letting go of the things that keep getting in our way.
