  The Death of Omnipotence and...

  Omnipotence is dead. 
  At least it should be. It has no biblical support. And it dies a death of a thousand qualifications in philosophy. 
  Those harmed and hurting wonder why an omnipotent and loving God doesn't prevent pointless pain. The problem of evil buries omnipotence six feet under. 
  But the death of omnipotence is not the death of God. 
  In this ground-breaking book, best-selling and award-winning author Thomas Jay Oord explains why omnipotence should be rejected. But Oord offers a replacement: amipotence, the power of love. 
  If we think love shapes and guides God's power, we make better sense of life. We make better sense of the Bible. Amipotence explains why God doesn't prevent genuine evil and it overcomes other obstacles to belief. An amipotent Spirit empowers all that is loving, true, beautiful, and good. 
  No book makes a bolder but more needed argument for why God is not all-powerful. Those who care about God, love, scripture, and logic will find what they've long been looking for.

  Endorsements: 
  "Omnipotence has long been considered a basic, non-negotiable, characteristic of God. But is it biblical? And does it push us toward theological landmines that blow up faith? In this book, Oord, with his typical gentle candor, lays out the complex issues in clear and readable chunks. In the end, Oord points to the beauty and comfort of a God who is uncontrolling love."

  Forgiveness - Healing the Wounds...

  Forgiveness is often seen as a personal choice—a decision to let go of past hurts and allow ourselves to heal. At its core, it is the process of releasing resentment, anger, or thoughts of revenge toward someone who has wronged us. While it may seem like an act of kindness directed at others, true forgiveness is, in fact, a gift we give ourselves. By forgiving, we free ourselves from the emotional and mental weight of holding onto painful experiences. 
  It is important to recognize that forgiveness is not the same as excusing the harmful behavior. It doesn’t mean that the hurtful actions are acceptable or that we should forget about the wrongs done to us. Forgiveness is not a dismissal of pain; rather, it is a conscious choice to stop allowing that pain to control our lives. When we forgive, we are not condoning the actions of others, but instead, we are choosing to release the grip that the negative emotions tied to those actions have on us. 
  The power of forgiveness lies in its ability to release us from the shackles of negative emotions. Holding onto anger, resentment, or hurt can poison our well-being and cloud our perception of life. By forgiving, we begin the healing process, allowing ourselves to move forward rather than remain stuck in the past. Forgiveness also creates space for growth, both personally and in our relationships with others. It opens up the possibility for renewed connections and understanding.
