Book Description
Where is the church now compared to fifty years ago? Is our faith stronger or weaker? Is the church's influence what it used to be? If not, why? We need to understand that as goes the church, so goes the nation. God has called the church to be the head-not the tail-leading society to His throne of grace. Only Believe is dedicated to revealing the heart of God according to the Bible for revival, a stronger personal relationship with Christ, and more effective church growth. The reason for our national dilemma, how to have a personal relationship with Jesus, and the biblical answers to other questions are included and backed up by the authority of Scripture. I pray that Only Believe: Drawing Closer to God will lead you to personal spiritual introspection as you take this spiritual journey. "Keith Kimball has combined his vast Bible knowledge with many years of experience to compile one of the most practical and pertinent books for our day: Only Believe. His premise is so basic, and yet so overlooked by a generation which seems to be on a quest to sensationalize the message at the risk marginalizing the truth. New believers as well as seasoned saints will be blessed as they are challenged to simply believe the life and work of Jesus and to simply obey His commands." -Royce E. Williams, evangelist, Missions Evangelism Ministries "Keith's book carries out a word he uses in one of his chapters: simplicity. He uses the great truths of the Bible to challenge the reader to apply them in their quest to draw closer to God. A good read." -Dr. Jim Henry, former president of the Southern Baptist Convention

Book Description
Thich Nhat Hanh offers powerful, direct, and uncompromising reflections on Zen thought, mindfulness, and the enlightenment inherent within us all. One of the key tenets of the Zen school of Mahayana Buddhism is that each one of us is already a Buddha—our enlightenment is inherent within us, and the practice of mindfulness is the tool to bring this truth to our full awareness. While it can bring much relief, this simple statement does not preclude the need for practice. We must strive to always be aware of our Buddha nature, rather than waiting until times of emotional upheaval when it is more difficult to practice. Thich Nhat Hanh uses the teachings of 9th-century Zen Master Linji to elaborate on this simple truth and to give readers tools that can help awaken them to their true inner nature. Linji’s recorded teachings are the most significant we have from the Ch’an school. One of the unique aspects of Linji’s teaching, is the need to “wake ourselves up,” not only by means of sitting meditation and listening to enlightened teachings, but also through unique techniques such as the shout, the stick, and the empty fist. Master Linji emphasized direct experience of our true nature over intellectual explorations of the teachings, and he encouraged his students to not “become lost in the knowledge or the concepts of the teaching.”
