Book Description
In "Walk Humbly with Your God: Putting God's Purpose First in Your Life," readers are invited on a transformative journey to deepen their relationship with God and align their lives with His divine purpose. Through a compelling blend of biblical insight, practical wisdom, and heartfelt conviction, this book serves as a guide to anyone yearning to walk more closely with God. The chapters unfold a path of spiritual discovery, starting from the roots of our relationship with the Divine in "Walking with God in the Beginning" and moving through the many aspects of a life lived in faith. The book offers a profound look into what it means to truly walk in God's truth, teaching readers to embrace a life guided by divine principles and to maintain integrity in their faith even in the face of adversity. This profound work delves into the essence of humility in "Walk Humbly with Your God," encouraging readers to cast aside pride and embrace a simpler, more modest approach to their spiritual journey. It grapples with the realities of doubt and difficulty in chapters like "Walking with God in Spite of Doubt" and "Do Not Give Up in Your Walk with God!", providing encouragement and strategies to persevere. "Walk Humbly with Your God" does not shy away from challenging readers to examine their faith deeply, as seen in chapters like "Examine Yourselves to See Whether You Are in the Faith." It also highlights the importance of wisdom and discernment in dealing with others in "Walk in Wisdom Toward Outsiders," promoting a Christian way of life that extends beyond the walls of the church and into every interaction. Perhaps most crucially, the book culminates in the profound reflection on the role of the Holy Spirit in our daily walk with God. "Walk by the Spirit" and "Invisible Guidance: The Daily Influence of the Spirit on Our Walk" offer an in-depth understanding of how to live a life that is not only informed by Scripture but also led by the Spirit’s gentle guidance. Each chapter serves as a milestone in the believer's spiritual expedition, from choosing to walk with God to continuously moving forward in faith to never shrinking back. "Walk Humbly with Your God" is more than a book; it's a lifelong companion for anyone who seeks to live a life that is pleasing to God, filled with the joy of His presence and the peace of His guidance. Join the multitude of believers who have found in these pages a roadmap to a richer, more fulfilling relationship with Jehovah. Whether at the dawn of your spiritual journey or well along the path, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to put God's purpose first in their life.

Book Description
The Center for Social Concerns provides community-based learning courses, community-based research, and service opportunities for students and faculty and lies at the heart of the University of Notre Dame. It is a place where faith and action, service and learning, research and resolve intersect. For more than 30 years the Center has offered educational experiences in social concerns inspired by Gospel values and the Catholic social tradition so that students and faculty may better understand and respond to poverty and injustice. Through the Center's programs students, faculty, staff, and alumni are enabled to think critically about today’s complex social realities and about their responsibilities in facing them. The Second Vatican Council articulated the significance of the baptismal call to discipleship for all believers, emphasizing active participation of the laity in the life of the church in the world. Responding to that urging, the Congregation of Holy Cross dedicated themselves to intentional formation of the laity through academic study of theology and through long-term immersion at their aposolates in the United States, Peru, Chile, and Uganda. The Center for Social Concerns, founded at the University of Notre Dame in 1983 by Fr. Don McNeill, C.S.C, deepened these efforts through a combination of pastoral theology, community-based learning, and lay formation for mission. This edited volume consists of eleven firsthand accounts from those directly formed by the Center for Social Concerns' approach to pastoral theology and through post-graduate collaboration in ministry with the Congregation of the Holy Cross. These fifteen essays will hold great interest for Catholics wishing to explore the implications of Vatican II for the church's mission in the world, for undergraduate and graduate students focusing on pastoral theology and missiology, and for all the people of good drawn to explore the relationships between faith and justice, contemplation and action.

Lectures on Faith
Author: Joseph Smith (Jr.)
Publisher: Zion's Camp Books
ISBN: 0988124564
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 101
Book Description
This special edition of the Lectures on Faith from Zion’s Camp Books is formatted for convenience on an eReader, with more than 100 internal links to scriptures and citations. We hope it will give you a great reading experience! The Lectures on Faith were originally prepared as materials for the School of the Prophets in Kirtland, Ohio in 1834 and were included in the Doctrine and Covenants from 1835 to 1921. Although the Lectures on Faith have never been accepted as revelation by the body of the church (and so were removed from the Doctrine and Covenants in 1921), they contain important doctrinal insights that can help anyone seeking to learn more about faith and come closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. President Joseph Fielding Smith noted, “I suppose that the rising generation knows little about the Lectures on Faith. . . . In my own judgment, these Lectures are of great value and should be studied. . . . I consider them to be of extreme value in the study of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” (Joseph Fielding Smith, Seek Ye Earnestly. Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 1970.) Elder Bruce R. McConkie of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles has stated the lectures contain “some of the best lesson material ever prepared on the Godhead; on the character, perfections, and attributes of God; on faith, miracles, and sacrifice. They can be studied with great profit by all gospel scholars.” (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine. Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1966.)

Simple and Free
Author: Jen Hatmaker
Publisher: Convergent Books
ISBN: 0593236777
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
Why do we pursue more when we’d be happier with less? In this updated edition of 7, New York Times bestselling author Jen Hatmaker tells the story of how she and her family tried to combat overindulgence—and what they learned along the way about living a truly meaningful life. Simple and Free is the true story of how Jen Hatmaker (along with her family) identified seven areas of excess—food, clothes, spending, media, possessions, waste, and stress—and made seven simple choices to fight back against the modern-day diseases of greed, materialism, and overindulgence. So, what’s the payoff from living a deeply reduced life? It’s the discovery of a greatly increased connection with God—a call toward simplicity and generosity that transcends social experiment to become a radically better life. In this new edition, written not just for readers of faith but for everyone who craves a gentler, simpler life, Hatmaker shares how sustainability and generosity still impact and challenge her today. Annotated throughout with new reflections from the author, this book offers thoughtful insights on the vastly different world of Simple and Free from back when it was first published as 7, and considers the dramatically different space Hatmaker occupies now. Simple and Free is funny, raw, and not a guilt trip in the making. Come along and discover what Jesus’ version of rich, blessed, and generous might look like in your life.
