There is a familiar passage of scripture, Matthew 10:16, that is greatly misunderstood. Jesus is sending the apostles out on their first evangelistic mission and he tells them, “I am sending you out as sheep among wolves.” A major part of the misunderstanding comes from the fact that these were grown men, despite referring to them as lambs. Jesus wasn’t sending out lambs, he was sending out rams (adult male sheep), and rams aren’t weak or passive.

“Do your best” is not a Bible verse, but this truth is communicated in scripture.

Discover joy and purpose in all you do!

At times, our chaotic world reveals hints of the utter brokenness in which we live, like a peek behind the veneer. As people of faith in a powerful God, we want to lift our faces to heaven to cry out or bury our face in our hands to whisper prayers. Either way we utter things like “God, please help,” “God, what are you doing?” “God, those people are terrible!” And we aren’t alone in those words we lift to heaven. In fact, our frustrating and exhausting experience with chaos, injustice, and corruption is much like that of the distressed prophet Habakkuk in the Old Testament.

Through biblical insight, personal stories, and prophetic visions, the goal is to challenge followers of Christ to use their words to influence the Kingdom of Heaven.

If following Jesus involves a life of sacrifice and suffering, is it wrong for a Christian to seek purpose and joy in this world? Many Christians sense tension between their desires to enjoy life in this world--the beauty of God’s creation, the rich love of deep relationships with others--and the reality that this world is fallen and broken, in need of redemption. How can we embrace and thrive in the tension between enjoying creation and promoting redemption?

Our world is charged with both the grandeur of God and the void of his absence. The seven deadly sins are the force causing that hole. They are at work in each of us. They decimate our relationships, our souls, and our world. These deadly sins often seem pleasing and good for gaining what we desire, but they are thoroughly poisonous. Conversely, the Beatitudes are Jesus' pictures of a restored creation.

Issus de "l'étincelle divine", nous sommes tous un fragment de la force créatrice de Dieu le Père et Dieu la Mère. Si notre cerveau possède deux hémisphères, l'un masculin, l'autre féminin, il en va de même du miroir de la création. Notre Père, co-créateur de l'univers, immobile et imperturbable, est pur intellect, alors que Dieu la Mère est le dieu émotif et actif qui peut "interférer" avec notre plan de vie.

This planet is more than just a stopover on your way to Heaven. It is your final destination. God wants you to enjoy your earthly existence, and to think otherwise is to miss the life he intends for you. Exploring the book of Genesis, Heaven Is a Place on Earth gently but firmly strips away common misconceptions of Christianity and broadens your worldview to reveal the tremendous dignity and value of everyday life.

A book that calls us to be a composite of two women--Mary and Martha--who take time to know Jesus better and whose theology informs and emboldens their ministries to others.

How do you build a life of significance? As pastor and writer Jeff Manion shares in Dream Big, Think Small, truly great lives are built on the foundation of a holy redundancy - a persistence and determination to move faithfully in the right direction. So many believers want their lives to count, but they are impatient with the slow pace at which goodness grows. Many of us struggle to embrace the faithfulness required to show up day after day after day.

This volume aims to call attention to and trace the various lines of prophetic time to the events in which they culminate. To receive its testimony, the listener will need to have an ear to hear and must expect to cast away many preconceived opinions as fast as they come to see their lack of harmony with God's word.

Our Spiritual Compass: The Conscience and Morality provides an overview of man’s immaterial parts (spirit, soul, heart, flesh, will, mind, and conscience). It uses this background to provide an in-depth Biblical study of the conscience. The latter part of the book is dedicated to understanding morality from the standpoint of conscience, examining how 200 years of worldly thought have corrupted our understanding of morality and ethics, and the ways in which modern life and philosophy are at odds with God’s guidance. Clear, accessible, and well researched, this is the book you need.
