Prayer - 10th Anniversary Edition
Author: Richard J. Foster
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 006180763X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
Best-selling author Richard J. Foster offers a warm, compelling, and sensitive primer on prayer, helping us to understand, experience, and practice it in its many forms-from the simple prayer of beginning again to unceasing prayer. He clarifies the prayer process, answers common misconceptions, and shows the way into prayers of contemplation, healing, blessing, forgiveness, and rest. Coming to prayer is like coming home, Foster says. "Nothing feels more right, more like what we are created to be and to do. Yet at the same time we are confronted with great mysteries. Who hasn't struggled with the puzzle of unanswered prayer? Who hasn't wondered how a finite person can commune with the infinite Creator of the universe? Who hasn't questioned whether prayer isn't merely psychological manipulation after all? We do our best, of course, to answer these knotty questions but when all is said and done, there is a sense in which these mysteries remain unanswered and unanswerable . . . At such times we must learn to become comfortable with the mystery." Foster shows how prayer can move us inward into personal transformation, upward toward intimacy with God, and outward to minister to others. He leads us beyond questions to a deeper understanding and practice of prayer, bringing us closer to God, to ourselves, and to our community.

Suffering and the Heart of God
Author: Diane Langberg
Publisher: New Growth Press
ISBN: 1942572034
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
She's seen slave dungeons in Ghana. Genocide in Rwanda. Systemic sexual abuse in Brazil. Child abuse and domestic violence in the US. After forty years of counseling abuse survivors around the world, Dr. Diane Langberg, a world renowned trauma expert, remains certain that what trauma destroys, Christ can and does restore. This book will convince you, too, of the healing heart of God. But it's not a fast process, instead much patience is required from family, friends, and counselors as they wisely and respectfully help victims unpack their traumatic suffering through talking, tears, and time. And it's not a process that can be separated from the work of God in both a counselor and counselee. Dr. Langberg calls all of those who wish to help sufferers to model Jesus's sacrificial love and care in how they listen, love, and guide. The heart of God is revealed to sufferers as they grow to understand the cross of Christ and how their God came to this earth and experienced such severe suffering that he too is "well-acquainted with grief." The cross of Christ is the lens that transforms and redeems traumatic suffering and its aftermath, not only for the sufferer, but it also transforms those who walk with the suffering. This book will be a great help to anyone who loves, listens to, and seeks to help someone impacted by trauma and abuse. There is no quick fix, but there is the hope for healing through the love of God in Christ.

A Window Into the Heart of God
Author: Martin Davis
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781530434084
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
"The cross of Christ is the ultimate demonstration of God's unfailing love for humanity. To know that "God is love," we need only look at Jesus on the cross, for in that act, Jesus, who is "of one being with the Father," reveals the heart of God. According to the great Scottish theologian, T. F. Torrance, the cross is a "window into the innermost heart of God," wherein we see the exact nature of God's love for the whole world. In giving himself for us on the cross, God proves that he loves us more than he loves himself (from "A Window into the Heart of God"). Across the globe, there is an awakening to the reality of God's love for all humanity, as revealed in Jesus Christ. Happily, more and more writers today are bringing the good news to a world in profound need of hearing the joyful message that animated the early Christians and empowered them to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ all over the known world. "A Window into the Heart of God" is the first booklet in the author's "Good News Series." In this series of short works, the author joins the many writers today who are finally "putting the good news back into the Gospel!"
