Book Description
Do you know the reason for the season? College student Austin Emerson is just trying to make it to his sister’s for the holiday break. He didn’t count on his car’s transmission failing, his ride taking off to Vegas with his gas money, or what the weather forecasters are calling the snowpocalypse. With his options dwindling, Austin takes a chance with a stranger’s number from the campus ride share. It’s only a nine-hour drive, what can go wrong? Taciturn Maddox Brennan has his own reason for driving from Michigan’s Upper Peninsula to Flint in the middle of a snowstorm. One he’s not willing to share. When the storm of the century leaves them stranded at a motel, neither one is prepared for their developing closeness. What will happen when the plows make it through? Will they go their separate ways, or will they find there’s more than one reason they were brought together this season?

Jesus Is Not the Reason for the Season

Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Drawing from a variety of sources, the author presents an honest view of the pagan roots of Christmas that the Church has adopted as a sacred holiday. The author goes into detail to show that our Christmas celebration today is nothing more than the ancient pagan festival of Winter Solstice. Jesus has commanded the Church in Revelation 19:4, "Come out of her My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." The Church has mixed the holy with the profane and it is now time to arise, prepare to meet her Heavenly Bridegroom. The author makes the plea to the Church to come out of the paganism that has infiltrated our worship unto Yahweh.

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
How to focus on Christ during Advent Most Christians agree that Christmas is all about Jesus, yet most of us spend little time preparing our hearts to celebrate Him. Why is this? Partly because we don’t know how. In Unwrapping the Names of Jesus, Asheritah Ciuciu leads readers through the four weeks of Advent (Hope, Preparation, Joy, and Love). Each week: Begins with an interactive family devotional that equips readers to celebrate Advent together Offers five daily reflections that focus on that week's name of Jesus Includes suggestions for fun-filled family activities or service projects This devotional can be used by readers in their own personal worship times or as a tool to engage in family worship during the busy holiday season. Either way, participants will gain a greater sense of awe and wonder at who Jesus is. By focusing on the person and character of Jesus throughout the Advent season, readers will prepare their hearts so that when they admire the live nativity, sit in the candlelight service, or wake up on Christian morning, they can join the faithful who sing from the bottom of their hearts, "O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!"

Made Like Martha

Publisher: WaterBrook
ISBN: 0735291322
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
An invitation for overachievers to discover what it means to rest as God's daughters without compromising their God-given design as doers. Are you a Martha who feels guilty for not being a Mary? Do you want to sit at Jesus’s feet as Mary did—but you feel the need to get things done? In Made Like Martha, Katie M. Reid invites you to exchange try-hard striving for hope-filled freedom without abandoning your doer’s heart in the process. Through her own story and rich biblical illustrations, Katie reminds you that it’s not important whether you sit and listen or stand and work. What matters is that your spiritual posture is one of a beloved daughter who knows she doesn’t need to earn God’s love. Your desire to get things done is not something to temper but something to embrace as you serve from a place of strength and peace—knowing Christ already did His most important work for you on the cross. With “It Is Finished” activities at the end of each chapter and a fiveweek Bible study included, Made Like Martha helps you find rest from striving even as you celebrate your God-given design to “do.” “Made Like Martha will infuse your life with a fresh perspective as you learn both to embrace your God-given personality and also discover how—and when—to rest and retreat.” —Karen Ehman, Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker and New York Times bestselling author of Keep It Shut
