Building on a Solid Foundation

ISBN: 9781930314047
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This compelling explanation of the Catholic faith focuses on seven topics that are hardest hit by competing modern world-views. Written by two returning Catholics and the priest who inspired them, this book lays a strong scriptural foundation for the Church teachings on the Trinity, the Eucharist, and the Church, as well as Catholic teachings regarding salvation, confession, purgatory, and Mary. Seven appendices also deal with questions pressing all Christians, including Genesis and evolution, science and faith, and the Catholic understanding of saints and relics. As such, this book provides a refuge for anyone who would like to encounter the real Christ and experience a personal relationship with him. More readable than a typical catechism, each chapter of Building on a Solid Foundation also provides a list of relevant scripture citations (useful for Bible studies), as well as excerpts from early Christian writings (A.D 100-749) that affirm the amazing two-thousand-year continuity of Church teaching and witness to the Truth.

How to Take a Crisis and Build a Solid Foundation: Personal Theoretical Framework for Application in Practice
Author: Shelly Lynn Peters
Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 9781977207807
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
When I first started as a Health Care Provider in the role of Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner on a hospital inpatient facility--I had experience as a psychiatric RN, but transitioning to a provider role was stressful. Documentation was different (and I was a bit slow--after all I am in my 50's) so I rationalize my stress with "at the end of the day, the goal was the same--everyone is breathing, and acute agitation is medicated'. This project was written in 2014 during an assignment for psychotherapy. It is a combination of my personal life experience as a fifteen-year illicit drug user and all the poor decisions that come with it AND the faith in God to guide me forward in recovery. Becoming a student was the new addiction, I learned to use my addicting behaviors to grow and develop as an example to my children to lead them in "the way they should go." During my academic years, as a student, every semester I wrestled with anxiety in the beginning as I adjusted to the change and got organized. I love the learning process as it is much like a 'double-edged-sword; I learn and advance academically and I utilize the lessons within my work environment to improve the healthcare environment and influence others. On the personal side, I am married to a wonderful man who holds down the house while I press-on and practice as a NPP. He is not afraid of the kitchen or the laundry room for that matter. He is experienced at grocery shopping too. I remind him, as he tells me he is proud of me, that I cannot do what I do without you doing what you do. I am grateful that my two children are in their twenties and both live in their own apartments. My son is a father of two beautiful children and my daughter is a LPN working in long-term care. Demonstration is a powerful tool. I have my own personal story of recovery and strive to effect change in the people I see that struggle with similar life's adversities.

Building Your Life on the Principles of God: the Solid Foundation
Author: Anthony Bright Atwam
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 149699793X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
Lord, please continue to have mercy on humanity. You have made provisions for everything we need in this world and the world to come. Yet many people although desire good life, are suffering, some are confused, others are desperate, families are broken down, our nation is struggling to cope, many people are lost in spiritual matters and sin. In this book, the authors main argument is that God, in his unfailing love for humanity, has already provided what people are frantically seeking in life. What people need to do is to turn to the Holy Scriptures for guidance. This book can be of such help. You see, when life is calm, our foundations dont seem to matter. But when crisis come, our foundations are tested. In this book, the author also argues that it is a waste of time and effort for people to build their lives on a faulty foundation. Jesus describes Gods principles as a solid foundation for people to build their lives on. We are strangers in this world; therefore we need someone who knows the journey of life to guide us. God is the creator of this world, and He alone knows the in and out of this world. His principles provide guidance for a perfect life. The attempts by some groups of people to suppress the knowledge of God in the society have not been very helpful in many ways, although they could not succeed. For example, these people could not provide the society with any viable alternative guiding principles on how people should live their lives. This has led many people to turn to wrong sources for guidance, sometimes with very little success or no success at all leading to a life of despair, hopelessness, and failure. Because of this suppression of Gods word, there seems to be famine in our society, famine of truth, famine of the word of God. There is also darkness in our society, many people are confused and some do not know what to do with their lives. But the word of God is light, its gives understanding, it gives hope, it provides guidance on spiritual matters, the salvation of the human soul, and solutions to all our problems. Sometimes, life is easier and beautiful if you know what to do in any situation you find yourself. Many people desire a good family life, peace, joy, hope, self discipline, strength, encouragement, a connection with a higher being that transcends human existence and meaning to life in their spiritual quest. As you read this book, know that I am praying for you for all these blessings in Jesus name, amen. Anthony Bright Atwam. According to scripture, the church is the salt and the light of this world. But the church seems to have locked the resources God has given her to be given to the world in the room and has put the keys in her pocket while the world is suffering. One of the things the church needs to do is to start to unpack and release the resources God has given her to meet the needs of postmodern spiritual quest. Anthony Bright Atwam.

Pages : 144
Book Description
In today's uncertain world, storms will arise that test your faith in a loving heavenly Father. At times, the winds and waves of the world's deceptions will roll in and seek to erode your confidence in God. Without a firm foundation in the truth of God's Word, you may be tempted to go off course and accept less than God's best for you. However, when you hear Jesus' words, receive them, and put them into practice, you will construct a life the torrents cannot shake, "because it was well built" (Luke 6:48). The Purple Book will help you understand foundational truths that God wants you to hear on topics such as sin, salvation, spiritual gifts, prayer, worship, generosity, and evangelism. It will show you how the Bible is "God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness" (2 Timothy 3:16). It will help you understand that the faith you hold has true power to change lives and transform nations. It will give you a solid foundation the enemy cannot dismantle—and a heart shaped by knowledge of God's Word.
