Book Description
A Wretch Like Me is a powerful testimony of what God's saving grace and redemption can do for those trapped in the clenches of addiction. Addiction has no filter. Addiction is controlled by the thief; ready to steal, kill, and destroy. This Christian Living autobiography offers insight to the life, and mindset, of someone trapped inside addiction and eating disorders. Stephanie's life was controlled by bulimia and severe alcohol abuse for over fifteen years. After the tragic death of her daughter, Stephanie gave up on life, and wanted to just simply die. Severe alcohol, abuse, and malnourishment, led to countless seizures from alcohol withdrawals. Nothing was worth living for. After the birth of her second child, the enemy continued to whisper his lies into her ear, "it is all your fault that your daughter is gone," and she believed him. She quickly fell back into the deepest level of torment and Hell that addiction has to offer. Homeless, violently sick of being sick, and painfully alone, Stephanie was finally desperate for change. This book takes you on a journey through the painful life of an addict, visions of Hell, and by God's grace alone, we come out together on the other side, walking in His freedom and truth. If you are struggling with an addiction or alcoholism, this book is for you. If you are trapped by an eating disorder, this book is for you. If you know nothing about addiction other than the destruction it is causing a loved one, and you want to gain insight, this book is for you. If you see the same homeless man asking for help on that same street corner, day after day, and don't know how to help, then this book is for you to give to him. Stephanie's autobiography is raw and unfiltered, but filled with mighty wisdom and truth, guiding you to the solid fact that foot of the cross is always level. Stephanie humbled herself, surrendered her life to Jesus, and now God has taken her prior mess and made it into a beautiful message full of His redemption and grace. Think your life is too far gone, and not worth saving? Come read through this journey. He can, and will, rescue A Wretch Like Me.

Paul and the Power of Grace
Author: John M. G. Barclay
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 1467459224
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Paul and the Gift transformed the landscape of Pauline studies upon its publication in 2015. In it, John Barclay led readers through a recontextualized analysis of grace and interrogated Paul’s original meaning in declaring it a “free gift” from God, revealing grace as a multifaceted concept that is socially radical and unconditioned—even if not unconditional. Paul and the Power of Grace offers all of the most significant contributions from Paul and the Gift in a package several hundred pages shorter and more accessible. Additionally, Barclay adds further analysis of the theme of gift and grace in Paul’s other letters—besides just Romans and Galatians—and explores contemporary implications for this new view of grace.
