Standing by the Pillar
Author: Matt Bower
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1604775114
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Line upon line, precept upon precept, Standing by the Pillar challenges the contemporary Christian's understanding of God's requirements on their lives. Utilizing biblical stories as analogies to our current situation, this book reveals that the Christian cannot have a significant impact on the culture unless and until he serves God with all of his heart, soul, mind and strength. To attempt any compromise on God's call on each Christian's life is to run the risk being relegated to insignificance. Trained as an educator, Matt Bower has not only taught social sciences in both public and private schools, he has done extensive research and teaching on the practical application of biblical principles in everyday life. Now as a pastor, he teaches and trains others in a distinctly Christian worldview. Matt pastors Valley Covenant Community church located in the heart of the Yakima Valley, where he lives with his wife and their seven children.

In Search of God
Author: Dr. Mohamed Gad
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1462027059
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Only God knows. We may ponder and choose our own path to receiving His Word, but we must realize ours is a human path. We cannot let blind faith, tradition, and ritual cloud our judgment and determine our perception of the world. The potent mix of fanaticism (whether tied to a nation or a religion), ignorance, and emotion has driven wedges among the peoples of the earth—wedges that need not exist at all. In Search of God: God, Religious Scriptures, and Proof of Divine Revelation presents the result of author Dr. Mohamed Gad’s twenty-five-year study of Christian, Islamic, and Judaic scripture, revealing the unifying truths of divinity, belief, and faith. In Search of God challenges serious students of all faiths and backgrounds as it examines proof for the existence of God, creation and evolution, prophecy, the identity of Jesus, the concept of the Holy Trinity, and the commonalities and spirit of revelation of the world’s three major religions. Dr. Gad’s personal journey and critical, spiritual investigation personify the human desire to understand God’s intention for us. Yes, only God knows, but armed with truth and tolerance we now have a chance to create a brighter future for our children and ourselves, a future in which we seek God, trust in Him, and are at peace.
