Walking Through Fire
Author: Vaneetha Rendall Risner
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1400218128
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
The astonishing, Job-like story of how an existence filled with loss, suffering, questioning, and anger became a life filled with shocking and incomprehensible peace and joy. Vaneetha Risner contracted polio as an infant, was misdiagnosed, and lived with widespread paralysis. She lived in and out of the hospital for ten years and, after each stay, would return to a life filled with bullying. When she became a Christian, though, she thought things would get easier, and they did: carefree college days, a dream job in Boston, and an MBA from Stanford where she met and married a classmate. But life unraveled. Again. She had four miscarriages. Her son died because of a doctor's mistake. And Vaneetha was diagnosed with post-polio syndrome, meaning she would likely become a quadriplegic. And then her husband betrayed her and moved out, leaving her to raise two adolescent daughters alone. This was not the abundant life she thought God had promised her. But, as Vaneetha discovered, everything she experienced was designed to draw her closer to Christ as she discovered "that intimacy with God in suffering can be breathtakingly beautiful."

The Better Mom

Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Mothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn’t change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful, and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God is using our children and motherhood to shape us. In The Better Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children, encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing the mess. We don’t need to settle for surviving our kids’ childhood. We can grow through it. With refreshing and heartfelt honesty Ruth emboldens moms to: Find freedom and walk confidently in purpose Create a God-honoring home environment Overcome unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and more Avoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection Cultivate life-giving friendships At the heart of The Better Mom is the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a worthy life. We don’t have to settle for either being apathetic or struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far. Ruth offers a better option. She says, “It’s okay to come as we are, but what we’re called to do and be is far too important to stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become."

Book Description
Building a relationship with Christ is so rewarding. One of the ways to do that is through prayer. Life can be full of challenges. I have learned that having a consistent prayer life can change your perspective of the way you see things in your world. Inside the passages of this book are my personal prayers and intimate conversations with God. It is my prayer that by me opening up and sharing the prayers of my faith and over my children, career, finances, broken heart and for my future husband, that readers will gain a sense of hope and courage knowing that we all go through times of questioning ourselves and maybe even God, but he gives beauty for ashes and makes all things work together for our good. There are often feelings, situations, or circumstances that we find ourselves in and that we don't indulge or share to a full extent with others because maybe were afraid of the judgement, embarrassment, or even resentment that come along with those things. The book is titled "Intimate Conversations with God" because he desires a relationship with us, and we have to be willing to open up and share our hearts with him because he's the only one that can truly meet us where we are and change the outcome of our circumstances. At the end of this, I want God to be pleased and readers to know that they aren't meant to face this life alone and that the answer to our tomorrows is in our prayers of faith of today. Be blessed.
