Pages : 140
Book Description
My Scars Are Now My Beauty Spots is a picture painted to speak. Imagine the opportunity to follow the journey of rainwater as it forms puddles, watching it flow to nearby streams and dams, and eventually making it to the vast open shores of the ocean. Envision the breeze, sand, and sense of calmness...Divinity uses poetry to lure you into her world; a world with different pieces of mirrors, each piece uniquely reflecting fragments of who you are and shared similar experiences. In a world that one calls home, one has home-cooked meals, family cheer, and laughter but there is more when one looks closer. The book showcases the union of stories and poetry; it allows one an opportunity to watch spoken word become real. "All dressed up in our Sunday best, we crossed the main road and up the road we went. We took the first right turn and maybe another turn, then lo and behold we were greeted by big chains locking and securing the gate. My brother and I thought that was where our journey would end but to our dismay, there was another church my mother had heard of from another colleague and that is where we were now going."

The Beauty of Broken
Author: Elisa Morgan
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 084996525X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Find beauty and hope by facing and dealing with the messiness of family life. The family is an imperfect institution. Broken people become broken parents who make broken families. But actually, broken is normal and exactly where God wants us. In The Beauty of Broken, Elisa Morgan, one of today’s most respected female Christian leaders, for the first time shares her very personal story of brokenness—from her first family of origin to the second, represented by her husband and two grown children. Over the years, Elisa’s family struggled privately with issues many parents must face, including: alcoholism and drug addiction infertility and adoption teen pregnancy and abortion divorce, homosexuality, and death Each story layers onto the next to reveal the brokenness that comes into our lives without invitation. “We’ve bought into the myth of the perfect family,” says Elisa. “Formulaic promises about the family may have originated in well-meaning intentions, but such thinking isn’t realistic. It’s not helpful. It’s not even kind.” Instead she offers hope in the form of “broken family values” that allow parents to grow and thrive with God. Values such as commitment, humility, relinquishment, and respect carry us to new places of understanding. Owning our brokenness shapes us into God’s best idea for us and enables us to discover the beauty in ourselves and each member of our family.

In the Way of Jesus
Author: Paul D. Kroeker
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525503529
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
A revolutionary love movement is circling the globe. Broken lives are being transformed and the love of Jesus is being gossiped into the most remote regions of the planet. However, in the West, the church is in decline. The brand image is broken. Christianity is not seen as radical or revolutionary and some of those who claim to be “Christian,” seem to bear little resemblance to the life and teachings of Jesus. Through national and international engagement in Christian ministry, Paul Kroeker has witnessed this development firsthand. He has come to realize that “Though we thought we were rich, we are really poor, and though we thought they were poor, the international church has the riches we need to live the abundant life Jesus describes” (inspired by Revelation 3:14-22). In the Way of Jesus takes readers on a journey of renewed hope found in the person of Jesus Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit. Through personal anecdotes and biblical insights, Kroeker lays out the path of discipleship that leads to an intimate relationship with Jesus: “When someone has been with Jesus, their love becomes authentic and compelling. They eagerly share what Jesus has done for them. Their joy is infectious. They are an open book—evidence of God’s love and forgiveness. Their love for one another becomes extraordinary and reveals the good news of the Kingdom of God. Brand image and reality are one and the same. This alone will lead to the awakening of the church in the West, allowing for a new tide of God’s redeeming love to move across our nation and heal our land.” In the way of Jesus you become a disciple who will love, live and serve like him. Love, Live, Serve like Jesus.
