Book Description
James A. Harnish, from the Introduction: “I’m broken. So are you. We’re all broken people who live in a broken world. The critical question is, how do we find strength to put broken things back together again? This book is an invitation to touch the scars that mark the broken places in our lives, in the same way the risen Christ invited a doubting disciple to touch the nail scars in his hands. It is a challenge to explore some of the dark places in our human experience, to uncover the sinister power of sin, and to experience the way the grace of God meets us in our broken places to bring new life.”

Book Description
Discover how Jesus’s blessings convert emotional suffering from a source of shame to a resource for faith. Long description: When you hurt, what does it mean for your faith? Too often church culture and religious individuals suggest that emotional pain shows lack of faith or sin against a punitive God. How ironic—Jesus suffered loneliness, misunderstanding, persecution and death to meet us at the lowest places and lift us to hope and life with his resurrection. Reframing apparent defeat as the first step in a life of purpose, this book shows how Jesus’s blessings, the Beatitudes, address the paradox of living through suffering on the way to joy. When you feel depressed or anxious, unworthy or ashamed, this book helps you recognize Jesus as a fellow struggler who meets you in your suffering, offering and embodying life and hope. It will help you hear Jesus’s blessing you when you feel least worthy of blessing. This vital resource features engaging spiritual practices and group discussion questions ideal for use by individuals on their own, in counseling or in groups. Christians and seekers in emotional pain as well as counselors, clergy, spiritual directors, Stephen ministers and family members will gain needed insight and guidance for the spiritual journey through suffering.

Book Description
There is no doubt that we are entering the final stages of the history of this world. Lawlessness abounds, terrorism is on the increase, and wars and rumors of war abound. Natural disasters such as tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, cyclones, floods, and tornados are also becoming more common as the earth struggles under the burden of humankinds rebellion. So what does the future hold for the beloved of Christ? Finding God in a Broken World provides insight into the steps to remaining free in Christ during the turbulent days ahead. The book explores seven key areasfrom embracing the love of God, finding Gods purpose for our lives, and overcoming the world, to living the victorious Christian life and remaining free in Christ, regardless of the circumstances we find ourselves facing in the coming days. Author John R. Clarkes scientific background gives him a distinctive insight into the Bible and the Word of God, and it allows for a different perspective on the events of the end times and Christian living than those normally provided by theologians. Although the times of the last days can be fraught with tension, unease, and even hostility, it is important for Christians to know that by understanding the difficult aspects of Gods teachings, his positive purposes and his plans for eternity will come into better perspective. By meditating on these teachings, the hope and prayer is that believers can find inspiration, comfort, and blessings.
