Praying with Jesus uncovers the four aspects of having a successful prayer life. The main key is realizing that the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are with us in prayer. The Scripture in Acts 10:38, talks about how Jesus was anointed with the Holy Ghost and power and went about doing good healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him. It is knowing God is with us that will cause us to realize nothing is impossible for us in prayer.

Ten Second Sermons uses a faith-based haiku format to encourage and challenge both individual readers and the church as a whole. Mark Lidtke, a devoted Christian who served as a public middle school teacher for three decades, shares how the Lord has guided him even when he struggled with his faith. As he approached retirement, he found himself in a time of reflection, and he prayed. God was quick to answer, and his faith was ignited as he wrote haikus - something he often used to promote learning as a teacher. In this book exploding with powerful verses, he tackles a number of topics, such as love, empathy, revelation, and how Christians can live for Jesus. The haikus can be used for daily inspiration or as building blocks that will help you celebrate a deepening relationship with Christ. Whether you're struggling with your faith or want to cultivate a connection with God for the first time, this book will inspire you to live your best life.

When Jesus called his first disciples, he asked them, "What are you looking for?" Jesus knew that we are all searching for something: a relationship with God; a grace-filled way of living; and the answers to life's most important questions such as "Who am I?" Too often we seek those answers in the wrong places. We can search the world and come up empty only to find that what we were seeking was inside of us all along. In a part-spiritual autobiography and part-guided meditation, certified spiritual director Mark Ekstrom invites believers to join him on a journey of self-discovery and faith while offering insight into his spiritual ups and downs, doubts, wonderings, and the growth that has brought him to where he is today. Organized as a thirty-day pilgrimage with daily meditations, spiritual seekers are guided through reflection questions, scripture readings, spiritual disciplines, and prayer in order to experience God's love and grace more fully, foster a deeper spirituality, and continue to build a strong personal relationship with God. Experiencing Grace leads believers on an introspective thirty-day journey to encourage an awareness of God not as a theological concept, but as a transforming relationship.

This book is a game changer, if taken seriously. There is so much uncertainty in the world today, and events taking place that we never thought we would see in our lifetime. As these events continue to escalate, we know it is more imperative than usual to be spiritually prepared for end-times. What is your plan? Are we truly ready for what is coming? In an inspirational handbook, Ivonne Pyke shares personal stories, scripture, spiritual insights, and a checklist of what to expect as end-times approach. She explores faith, fear, life changing plan, and the persecution of religious beliefs; the six pieces of armor that God provides His earthly followers; several matters in life that require perseverance; the three significant books in the Bible-the Books of Truth, Remembrance, and Life; and ways to thrive during the post-rapture when life as we know it has completely changed. Included is a list of get-me-by recipes that instruct how to make homemade household items such as laundry detergent and toothpaste to survive the uncertainty that accompanies a drastic change in the world. In the Last Days is a spiritual handbook that offers diverse insights into how to prepare the mind, body, and soul for end-times and the post-rapture.

The Rocks of the Cross is the story of Christ revealing Himself in the life of this father named Paul, as he journeys to be in the life of his son Jason. This story is designed to encourage parents to be actively engaged in the lives of their children, and to make a positive and long-lasting impact in their lives. It calls for committed parents to shape this generation and future ones, by actively participating in the greatest service of all: humanity. It is also a story of hope, adversity, tenacity and triumph. Triumph proven sweeter when we allow God to lead the way. Although this is a love story of a father and son, this book will also speak to a much larger audience. I say this, as we all have difficulties to traverse in life, and no one is immune from those. But, yet, it is during those adverse episodes that the essence of our character, of what we believe in and on, is tested and ultimately revealed.

We have been indoctrinated with the lie that belief in God is irrational. As a result, the United States is rapidly becoming a post-Christian nation. At the current rate, by 2040 most Americans will no longer identify as Christian. Mark Stelter relies on his professional experiences as a lawyer, theologian, and former college professor to carefully examine secular materialism and clearly demonstrate that it is the theistic worldview-not the atheistic worldview-that is most supported by the evidence. Stelter explores a variety of topics that include the triumph of secularism in American culture, the shift in worldviews, the separation of church and state, the academic assault on religion, moral truth versus moral relativism, the intolerance of tolerance, and much more. Post-Christian Nation is a well-documented examination of how Christianity-not atheism-prevails when tested by reason, logic, and science.

He knows the limitations of human beings, and fixed them in such a way that we all can look up to Him for understanding, direction, guidance, hope, restoration, and wisdom in our daily lives.

The Place Called "There" We often think that our possessions are only physical or material either as a car, building, piece of land or other tangible assets. Just as physical possessions can be handed down generations, so also can spiritual secrets and assets be transferred like intellectual properties. There are hidden secrets from plain sight, revealed to those who by reason of use, have their senses exercised (Hebrews 5:14) to see, or/and hear, and then act. To these ones, it will belong and be entrusted because they are the ones who follow through the hidden secrets presented to them. 'The Place Called There' is a memoir of voyage of enduring faith and friendship with God, through 'the wildernesses' of advanced school of patience, trust, and perseverance (PTP).

We live in a society full of words; everyone is saying something. People openly share their opinions, accusations, and speculations in today's culture where things are unstable and unreliable. Words fly around, and it can be difficult to know what or whom to believe. Words can make or break us. We often choose to allow good or bad words to dictate whether we're happy or sad. However, we can't afford to let everything we hear and see control our emotional thermostat. In Who Told You That?, author Clarence B. Skinner shares the message that God's word is truth, it's life, and it doesn't fail. In a blend of personal testimony and an examination of God's word, Skinner communicates that God is speaking to you today. He's saying: "I forgive you. I'm not angry with you. I love you. I want to lead, guide, and help you." God has promised to take care of you, provide for you, watch over you and protect you. God's word can be trusted.

Consider Moses the nomad and David the shepherd or perhaps Mary the alabaster seeker and Zacchaeus, the tax-collecting tree climber. Scripture is rich with broken and ordinary people who chose to follow Jesus even in the midst of less than ideal circumstances. The Bible is overflowing with disciples who chose Jesus through the Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays of their lives. When following Jesus there are seasons abundant in victories, but there are also seasons heavy with doubt and despair. An Ordinary Saturday is full of mistakes made and lessons learned by one of God's beloved daughters, all centered on Scripture to show that although we are broken, He makes us whole. Author Hailey Brianna made a lot of wrong turns but always ended up exactly where she needed to be because of God's grace and provision. There will always be moments in our lives when we're asked to wait on God in the desert. The question is, how do we respond when facing the gap between where we are and where we want to be? When all hope seems to wither, we must remember we worship the Giver of Hope, Jesus Christ. An Ordinary Saturday is an inspiring book that reminds readers to choose Jesus always and hold on to the hope God provides. During your walk with God, Sunday always comes, but that does not mean the rest of our days are wasted.

Have you ever wondered who you are and why you're here? There are many who question who they are in the world, thrown into a whirlwind of confusion without warning. Carmen Seguinot Matos was one of those people who questioned her identity with good reason. We are born. We live our lives based on what is given to us starting from birth through to adulthood. It could be prosperous, good, fair, bad, or horrible. If you think about the great uncertainty that surrounds us when we are born, you must admit there should be a manual to guide newborns into a successful life. Our parents should have a goal for us that will lead to victory. It's a good thing there is such a manual: the Bible, God's infinite Word. The goal all parents should have is for their children to have hearts for Jesus and live victorious lives into adulthood. God uses a variety of different ways to help us become strong, vital servants of Jesus Christ. Instead of shrinking back in the face of the struggles and challenges of this world, let's look up to the Lord and seek His strength, plan, and purpose. Come and let Carmen tell you a little bit about herself; you may have more in common than you would have imagined.

I calmly looked at him with respect, I tried very hard not to show any fear, and replied, "Oh sorry, we were just laughing about something my friend had just said. No harm intended." Instantly the angry young man who was ready to rip me out of the car changed facial expression to almost a smile, and said, "No problem. Have a good day!" My friend Dave turned to me, looking shocked and relieved exclaiming, "How on earth did you get out of that That was amazing!" Learning and practicing to keep calm under pressure has kept me from taking unwise actions or making rash decisions. Little did I know that practicing such peaceful responses would also help provide a platform for developing wisdom.

Whoever pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity, and honor. Jesus made us able to reign in life. In Him, we have become the righteousness of God. It is time for Christians to understand their right-standing relationship with the Father. Righteousness is a free gift of God provided by Jesus Christ at Calvary through the grace of God. It simply means being in the right standing with God. This does not refer to your good work or pious look but to God's righteousness. The kingdom of God is a kingdom of righteousness.It simply means being in the right standing with God. This does not refer to your good work or pious look but to God's righteousness. The kingdom of God is a kingdom of righteousness. Romans 14:17 says "For the kingdom of God, is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost". It's awesome to be conscious of your righteousness in Christ Jesus, that is God- conscious. Our actions inevitably fall in place as we behold this wonderful truth and continually renew our minds to be transformed with His word. Our true identity in Christ and victorious life are solely dependent on Christ's finished work and waking in the light.
