When life circumstances change, we feel insecure and uncomfortable. Whether the causes of change are pandemics, natural disasters, personal trauma, or workplace issues, we find ourselves hurt, surprised, and confused about what to do. Michelle McKinney Hammond knows the curveballs of life. She has caught many of them. But when she was visiting England to give talks and the world suddenly went into lockdown mode due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she was caught by surprise just like us. It was time for her to change gears. Like a friend who's been where you are now, Michelle offers a reassuring voice: When Everything Changed: Say Yes to the Next Thing!

A beautifully written and moving memoir about the pain of loss, spiritual skepticism, an overwhelming experience of God's love, and an encounter with the writings of sixteenth-century spiritual mystic Teresa of Avila. Not by nature or training inclined to believe in such spiritual experiences, Laurel Mathewson discovered that God is full of surprises--and offers the gift of healing. 250 characters: A beautifully written and moving memoir about the pain of loss, spiritual skepticism, an overwhelming experience of God's love, and a surprising encounter with the writings of sixteenth-century spiritual mystic Teresa of Avila.

This book of essays recaptures beautiful elements of ancient Christianity that have been lost or shoved aside in modern society.

All of us are recovering from something. Whether it's an addiction, a painful incident from our past, or a daily challenge just to get by in this world, something is holding us back from the promised-land life God wants for us. Real recovery isn't a one-time event or a process that fits into twelve steps or a preset length of time. Uncovering how to live free of what holds you back is a lifelong journey, and one that is best traveled with others. The Uncovery Devotional: Rethinking Recovery One Day at a Time will help you take those steps toward a better, healthier, happier you. The authors, George A. Wood and Brit Eaton, know that battles with addiction, mental health, suicidal thoughts, and past trauma cannot be won overnight. They've been in your shoes. And they provide the love, commitment, and compassion that will help you uncover and heal the bottom-line issue that causes you to struggle in the first place. Each month follows a theme, such as reflection, relationship, and reconciliation, while each day provides a short Scripture and prayer. Wild opportunities for hope, healing, and transformation exist for you in the Christian recovery space because you're not working to recover an old, broken life--you're going after a brand new one. You'll discover the truth about who you really are and Whose you really are so that you can reach deep levels of healing and deliverance.

What would it have looked like and felt like to walk daily with Jesus during His time on earth, sharing in what He experienced and taught? And how does His life have significance for our own lives today? We can answer these questions by following in His footsteps--each step of the way. In any journey, the destination is important, but just as significant is the life we experience as we travel that path. Jesus' journey was similar. Who He traveled with, where He went, and what He experienced along the way were all important to Him. He's still on His journey, and He has invited you to join Him on it. This new devotional series, Life Along the Way, takes you through the life of Jesus by way of all four Gospels and the first chapter of Acts. In four 90-day devotionals, you can travel with Jesus for a full year if you wish--from His birth, to His ministry and miracles, to His relationships with the people around Him, to His death, resurrection, and ascension. The four devotionals in the journey, which you can read either sequentially or in any order, are: 1. Jesus With Us: Meeting Him Where He Began 2. Jesus Among Us: Walking with Him in His Ministry and Miracles 3. Jesus Through Us: Following His Example in Love and Service 4. Jesus in Us: Living Wholeheartedly the Life He Intends In this devotional, Jesus with Us, you will stop at important early places along Jesus's path, including His birth, the fulfillment of the promises of His coming, the plot to kill the Christ Child, Jesus's youth, the beginning of His ministry, the calling of His first followers, and His famous Sermon on the Mount. This devotional is designed so that... Each day's Scripture will be life-transforming Each day's "Life Lessons from Jesus" will be dynamic and relevant Each day's questions will be reflective and self-exploring, leading to spiritual growth Each day's prayer will be authentic and relational The beginning of Jesus's story is powerful, but it can also be very personal. As you journey each day with the Savior, you will learn to love Jesus and love like Jesus. Where are you on your walk with Jesus?

JourneyWise: Finding meaning in each step along the path of life and being transformed by the journey as a whole. A common thread binds us together: the broken and winding roads we all travel. Most of us carry with us some form of spiritual, emotional, or physical baggage. That type of weight takes its toll. Our paths can be difficult or daunting if we try to journey them on our own. In JourneyWise, noted pastor and author Shane Stanford offers us a different understanding of our life's path, enabling us to reframe our journey into one that is healed and redeemed. He begins by asking these questions: What if you could have Jesus Himself as your life's companion? What if you had access to His innermost thoughts, tapping into His wisdom? What if your story could intimately intertwine with His and of others who closely follow Him? And what if all of this were possible by purposefully applying only a few paragraphs of His teachings? The Beatitudes are more than just poetic verse used to begin Jesus's Sermon on the Mount. They are the essence of Jesus's message from beginning to end. These familiar words establish the overall tone of Jesus's teaching ministry and reveal His most deeply held values. To be JourneyWise is to discover and live out the simple yet powerful truths of the Beatitudes. It is through the Beatitudes, which literally mean "blessings," that Jesus gives us a new definition of significance before leading us to reflect on the deeper meaning of life, our relationship with God, and the interconnections we have with others. They speak to our friendships, actions, fears, prejudices, and joys. They are pragmatic, powerful lessons wrapped in simple words. In their simplicity and accuracy, the Beatitudes yield amazing results when practiced faithfully. This book will stir your spirit and touch your emotions to bring healing so you can follow Jesus wholeheartedly. Writing with honesty, poignancy, and compassion about the complexities of our daily existence, Shane shows how, in each beatitude, Jesus provides a foundation for developing a significant and spiritually formed life. Here, you will find words of hope and the infinite possibilities of Christ's simple blessings. JourneyWise with Jesus.

What if you never expected miraculous healing was possible but were surprised when it actually happened, or by the way in which it happened? And what if you found out that, all along, the Bible had principles for healing prayer that we could apply to our lives for restoring body, mind, and spirit? Join authors David Chotka and Maxie Dunnam in their unexpected journeys of discovery that healing prayer is God's idea, not a human concept, and that He invites us to intercede for healing in our own lives and on behalf of others. Prayer, including healing prayer, is one of the greatest activities in which Christians can participate with God to fulfill His purposes. God wants us to pray as an integral part of our relationship with Him and as a vital aspect of our life of faith. This intriguing book covers such topics as: Healing prayer: what does the Bible say? Medicine, miracle, and mystery: how they interrelate Why and how we pray for healing The role of compassion in healing Christ's forgiving and healing presence within us How to prepare yourself for prayer Eight ways healing prayer is misunderstood Healing Prayer includes accounts of God's power to heal today, and it provides guidance for how to organize a prayer team in your small group, church, or denomination. Above all, this book shows that it is God who initiates healing prayer. Our part is to respond to His instructions and leading as we pray. All He asks is our openness to Him. Read this book and you, too, may be surprised by the power of Healing Prayer.

When circumstances in our life change, many of us are left feeling uncertain and uneasy. From pandemics to natural disasters, from personal traumas to workplace issues, we often find ourselves at a crossroads--hurting, blindsided, and confused about what to do. Michelle McKinney Hammond knows all about life's curveballs. She's caught plenty of them. But when she was visiting England for some speaking engagements and the world suddenly went into lockdown mode because of the COVID-19 pandemic, she was taken by surprise along with the rest of us. It was time for her to shift gears. Again. Like a dear friend who's been where you are now, Michelle offers a calming voice of reason in When Shift Happens: Say Yes to Your Next! Weaving stories from Scripture with tales from her own life, she offers heartfelt lessons, prayers, and reflection questions to help you embrace your next. When Shift Happens will: Provide practical tools for navigating change Give you solid spiritual principles for dealing with life's shiftsEnable you to consider the value of mistakesHelp you embrace change as opportunityShift your perspective to expect the best as God redirects"Mindset is everything when confronted with unanticipated change," Michelle notes. "You are never out of options unless you choose to be. Emerging cycles all point to one thing--whether you are ready or not, shift happens. It's not the end. There's always a next!"

Everyone has secrets. Elizabeth Good's seem shocking - at first - until the room begins to shift, hands raise, tears well, and hurting hearts respond, "I thought I was the only one." Brave enough to lay her own story on the table, Elizabeth Good noticed, as the scales of shame and fear began to fall from her eyes, the same was happening to others in domino effect of healing. Thousands who have lived paralyzed by secrets are learning to speak up and live free through Good's Real Talk curriculum, and the move of God is not so quietly transforming churches, business, families, and communities. Now readers can engage with the same tools, giving them permission (often for the first time in their lives) to Speak the Unspeakable and change the trajectory of their life, discovering their purpose for impacting others, and becoming the ultimate key to unlock a spirit of silence and brokenness threatening to tear the contemporary church apart. Speak the Unspeakable is an invitation to transformation and a handbook for getting the job done. The world of silence in which we've been living, is starting to shift culturally as Good leads others (individuals and groups from kids to CEOs) through her unconventional approach to emotional healing and next-level living. Using the language and lessons gained from her decades as a pastor, licensed psychologist, and not-for-profit activist working with sex trafficking victims, Good is uniquely equipped to guide and support readers on their journey as they "trade unspoken problems for unspeakable results."

It's hard enough having a painful secret that you are terrified of sharing. It's even harder when you find yourself in the international limelight as the advocate wife of a Christian hero imprisoned for his faith. The worst part is fearing that, if you did share this secret, it might devastate the lives of your family and close friends, alienate tens of thousands of active supporters, and cause persecuted people around the world to become even more vulnerable. Naghmeh Abedini Panahi lived in constant tension from the irreconcilable realities playing out in her own life, in her family life, in the conduct of others, and on the worldwide stage as she interacted with power brokers and well-known religious leaders. Tension involving: Steadfastly honoring God versus being carried away by the tide of circumstancesPersonal reality versus public personaGenuine faith versus hypocritical religionTruth and caring versus the end justifying the meansObedience to God versus loyalty to othersFor Naghmeh, it all came to a breaking point, and the only way through it was to die. Not physically, but in experiencing a death and rebirth in her understanding of God, her faith, and her identity as a woman. "I can't tell you how I was able to make it through, because I didn't," she writes. "Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes, the new me emerged from the catastrophe of my marriage." I Didn't Survive: Emerging Whole After Deception, Persecution, and Hidden Abuse is Naghmeh's firsthand story, which takes you from war-torn Tehran to the quiet Midwestern U.S. to the halls of power in Washington D.C. It vividly describes the Islamic upbringing that shaped her, her unexpected conversion to Christianity, and the events that led to her marriage to Saeed Abedini, a magnetic pastor in the Iranian underground church. The book details Saeed's arrest and imprisonment for preaching the gospel, her fateful decision to share the truth about her husband, her betrayal and abandonment by former supporters, and the new life of advocacy for women that has arisen from the brokenness. Through the pain, abuse, and loss, Naghmeh clearly demonstrates what it means for us to find our true identity in God, discover the protective care God has for His children, and participate in sharing the love and healing He desires to bring to the world.

Everyone is familiar with the Bible--after all, it's still the best-selling book in the world. But just exactly how did we get the collection of sixty-six books that make up God's Word? The Book that Conquered Time: How the Bible Came to Be tells the sometimes dramatic, always fascinating, and ultimately faith-building story of the Bible. It traces its history from ancient parchments to the modern work of translating the Word into everyday language. You will discover: The differences and similarities between the Jewish holy books and the Christian BibleHow the New Testament writings were copied and collected, including the apocryphal gospels and lettersThe church leaders who succeeded the apostles, what they wrote, and what they thought of the writings they inheritedThe church councils, controversies, and disputes that boiled over in the 300sWhy certain writings were removed from the Bible, even though they might be helpful if not essential for our faithThe purposes of modern Bible translations and the differences between themThe Book that Conquered Time provides fresh insights on why the Bible continues to be the most powerful book of all time.

Un día estarás delante de Dios y darás cuenta de tu vida. La pregunta más importante que puedes hacerte ahora es, ¿estarás listo? La mayoría de los cristianos saben que su respuesta a la cruz determina dónde pasarán la eternidad. Pero, ¿sabías que cómo pasarás la eternidad está determinado por lo que hagas en esta vida?

Todos enfrentamos y enfrentaremos momentos difíciles. La adversidad, muchas veces, se presenta de manera inesperada, y puede ser temporal, o nos acompaña por largos períodos de tiempo. La adversidad podría alterar el proyecto de vida que teníamos planeado o producir cambios inmediatos en nuestro estilo de vivir. Sin embargo, siempre deja lecciones maravillosas y conocemos a Dios de una forma diferente, profunda y personal. Toda adversidad tiene solo una ruta: la de ser superada. Cómo enfrentar momentos difíciles le ayudará a convertir la adversidad en oportunidades. Sus recomendaciones son claras y sencillas, entre otras: enfrente los pensamientos negativos; piense bien la situación y sus posibilidades; no se detenga, avance; rodéese de personas que lo animen; admita sus limitaciones; desarrolle estrategias; y descubra las oportunidades de la vida. ----- We all face and will face difficult times. Adversity often occurs unexpectedly. It can be temporary, or accompany us for long periods of time. Adversity could alter the life project we had planned or produce immediate changes in our lifestyle. However, it always leaves wonderful lessons, and we know God in a different, deep, and personal way. All adversity has only one route: we are to overcome it. How to Face Difficult Moments will help you turn adversity into opportunities. Sixto Porras's recommendations are clear and simple; among others, he suggests: face negative thoughts; think well about the situation and its possibilities; don't stop, move forward; surround yourself with people who encourage you; admit your limitations; develop strategies; and discover life's opportunities.

Protect Yourself in the End-Times Confusion What is the greatest danger for believers at the end of the age? Is it persecution? Natural disasters? Financial collapse? Internationally renowned Bible teacher Derek Prince warns that the most pressing danger is not any of these but rather deception. Satanic deception in the forms of false teaching, counterfeit signs and wonders, and other spiritual treachery is a Battle of the Ages that began in the garden of Eden and is intensifying to its greatest pitch in these end times. The danger of deception in this battle is high, even if we are confident that we are "safe." Derek explains, "Anyone who denies his vulnerability to deception is already deceived, for Jesus has foretold it, and He does not err." We are living in a dangerous time in which we require God's supernatural warnings and wisdom. We must learn to recognize our own self-deception and to discern the end-time plots of the enemy before being drawn in to his tricks and schemes. The Battle of the Ages will equip you to: Test the source of supernatural signs and wondersDiscern truth from falsehoodLearn the characteristics of candidates for deceptionKnow the safeguards against deceptionBreak free from pride, a stronghold of SatanResist the schemes of Satan and share in Jesus's triumph over himRecognize the mixture of the false church within the true churchDistinguish the Holy Spirit from counterfeit spiritsKeep your heart pure and surrendered to GodPowerfully share the gospel to bring in a great harvestYou can uncover Satan's strategies, effectively engage in spiritual warfare, free others from the enemy's grip--and win the battle over deception and destruction.

For better or worse, people will define the quality of your life and your future. Everything has to do with people--and how we respond to them. In many of our endeavors, people are the single most important factor in our sense of well-being and happiness. Yet, even though we depend on the influence, cooperation, knowledge, and affirmation of others--and others depend on us--we are rarely taught how to understand and effectively relate to our family members, friends, coworkers, and others we encounter each day. In the ideal world, people value each other and nobody judges anyone else, our families are loving and supportive, and we forgive those who offend us. But in the real world, it often isn't that way. Friends gossip about us, enemies try to undermine us, those who should love us may abandon us, and we sometimes hold on to resentments for years. When problems or issues arise in relationships, we fall back on our emotions or past patterns of dealing with conflict. We withdraw from other people or lash out at them. That's why we need to develop the art of being a People Specialist. International speaker Tiago Brunet has spent years researching and teaching others how to become experts in real-life relationships. In People Specialist, he explains: How to be intentional about building strong relationships in all arenas of lifeThe three spheres of friendship: strategic, necessary, and closeHow to manage unavoidable and avoidable relationshipsThe elements that lead to a strong and lasting marriageHow understanding ourselves enables us to cultivate positive relationshipsHow to see ourselves as others see usHow to implement a program of personal development and successTime-tested biblical principles for connecting to others and resolving conflictsHow to see the best in others and invest in themWith humor, frankness, and energy, Brunet shows how anyone can become a People Specialist, transforming their own life and the lives of those around them.

"A romance novel set in 1955 in Michigan featuring a respected pastor who receives an unsettling letter from a missionary in Japan that forces him, his family, and his congregation to tackle tough questions about faith and redemption"--

When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth? (Luke 18:8) Jesus's question is one that should bother all Christians. The number of faithful teenagers in America has been diminishing from one generation to the next. Today, ninety-six percent of those born between 1998 and 2013 don't believe in the Bible, absolute moral truth, or a supreme, loving, all-powerful Creator. They don't even believe in the concept of sin. We have failed the biblical command to pass our faith from one generation to the next. Yet youth specialist Jeff Grenell believes this trend is reversible. In fact, he says, once we stop doing youth ministry in a Nickelodeon way for teenagers living in a Stranger Things world, we will see the spiritual awakening we've been praying for. Next Gen Faith: 12 Spiritual Practices for Youth is designed to provide key steps for spiritual formation for Christian adults who work with youth as well as families, teens, and young adults seeking such a resource. With group discussion outlines written by youth leaders, it includes foundational, outward, and inward disciplines with the goal of drawing people closer to our awesome, powerful God. Next Gen Faith captures the essence of what's needed to raise godly young people who will become tomorrow's leaders, offering pointers for youth ministries based on theology and discipleship.

Ya somos bendecidos con toda bendición en cielo y en la tierra, dice la Palabra de Dios en el libro de Deuteronomio. Y esa bendición está íntimamente enlazada con una vida de fe inquebrantable que se afianza a cada paso de nuestra jornada. En La Biblia, ese viaje en el que nos embarcamos los cristianos fue iniciado por Abrahán, conocido como el Padre de la Fe. El camino de la fe es el libro que nos revela los misterios más ocultos de la fe, el poder de Dios que estamos llamados a conocer y la autoridad y las bendiciones con las que fuimos investidos por Él para vivir y a la vez bendecir nuestra generación y las venideras. ----- We are already blessed with every blessing in heaven and on earth, says the Word of God in the book of Deuteronomy. And that blessing is intimately linked with a life of unwavering faith that takes hold at every step of our journey. In the Bible, that journey on which we Christians embark was initiated by Abraham, known as the Father of Faith. The Journey of Faith is the book that reveals to us the most hidden mysteries of faith, the power of God that we are called to know, and the authority and blessings with which we have been invested by Him to live and at the same time bless our generation and those to come.

A collection of stories inspired by the Gospel of Mathew.
