Sinossi

Why slowing down is the secret to spiritual strength 
 
In our fast-paced world of outrageous headlines and knee-jerk reactions, we struggle to hear God's voice amid the noise. Despite constant connectivity, our lives lack true spiritual connection and depth. 
 
A. J. Swoboda and Nijay Gupta offer a practical theology guide for building resilient faith through Christian discipleship. Addressing spiritual deconstruction and doubt with honesty, they show how to fortify your faith against cultural challenges through eight transformative spiritual practices, including 
 
● taking your time in prayer and Bible study, 
● building patience for your spiritual journey and faith formation, 
● slowing down your thinking and decision-making process, 
● finding peace with unanswered questions rather than demanding easy solutions, and 
● facing spiritual difficulties head-on instead of avoiding them. 
 
This Christian living book helps weary believers reconnect with God and neighbor through intentional spiritual growth. With a foreword by Glenn Packiam, it's perfect for devotional reading, small group study, or anyone seeking authentic faith formation.
Disponibile da: 23/09/2025.

    When Lacey unexpectedly inherits the Monterossa family mansion from her grandmother, she and her friend Daisy turn it into a tea room and inn. Two months after opening the inn, an older gentleman guest is found murdered in his guestroom.

    But only if the pair leaves the past and moves into the present can the inn succeed and a murderer be brought to justice. 
    Straw Hats and Old Lace is book one of the contemporary Christian romance series of novellas by the same name.

    She knows what it is to live in a body that is unraveling, a world that doesn't understand, and a church that doesn't always know what to say. With compassion, wit, and quiet strength, Sydney invites you to remember that some of life's fiercest battles are fought flat on your back—and not one of them is wasted. 
    In Fearfully and Wonderfully Broken, Sydney shares her story of becoming disabled just two weeks after her honeymoon and learning to live with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)—a condition that disrupts the brain's ability to send correct signals to the body, resulting in daily seizures, mobility loss, and chronic pain. 
    Learning to live with this disability, as well as the loss and pain that comes with it, has been one of her greatest struggles as well as the way in which God is building her strength. But Sydney doesn't just talk about disability—she lives with it, coaches on it, and laughs through it, inviting her readers to join her journey. Fearfully and Wonderfully Broken aims to:discover practical strategies for coping with chronic struggles and limitations;make peace with questions and embrace the daily fight for faith;uncover strength in weakness and dignity in dependence; andreceive heartfelt hope and encouragement to keep going—even when healing doesn't come. 
      
    Sydney will be your unafraid guide through whatever valley you are walking through, normalizing doubt and the daily fight for faith, and recognizing the presence of God there.

    Journey Towards SpiritualityJapji Sahib EnglishSpiritual bliss 
    Philosophy of Sikhism is characterized by logic, comprehensiveness and its "without frills" approach to the spiritual and material world. Its theology is marked by simplicity. In Sikh ethics there is no conflict between the individual’s duty to the self and that towards society (sangat). 
    Sikhism is the youngest world religion founded by Guru Nanak some 500 years ago. It emphasizes the belief in One Supreme Being and the Creator (Waheguru) of the universe. It offers a simple straight path to eternal bliss and spreads a message of love and universal brotherhood. Sikhism is strictly a monotheistic faith and recognizes God as the only One who is not subject to limits of time or space.Sikhism believes that there is only one God, who is the Creator, Sustainer, Destroyer and does not take human form. The theory of  incarnation has no place in Sikhism. It does not attach any value to gods and goddesses and other deities.

    As parents, we want to shape our children into emotionally mature and healthy human beings. But we cannot effectively shape our children's emotional well-being until we've addressed our own traumas and emotional needs. 
     
     
     
    In It Starts with You, marriage and family therapist and parent coach Nicole Schwarz offers a nonjudgmental, shame-free guide to parenting children with a calm confidence. Working from a place of grace and compassion, she encourages us to explore how our history, thoughts, and assumptions impact our parenting decisions. Moving away from traditional discipline strategies, Schwarz focuses on the importance of having a calm brain, connected relationships, respectful conversations, and a coaching mindset with our kids. 
     
     
     
    It Starts with You lays out a five-step process you can turn to whenever you're stuck in a difficult parenting situation. Each step is grounded in research and presented in a way that is easy to understand. Rather than adding unnecessary pressure, we learn that kids do not need perfect parents, but parents who are willing to learn, grow, and move forward with them in a positive direction.
