Lectures on Revivals of Religion - Theological Discourses

Charles G. Finney

Summary

Lectures on Revivals of Religion is a religious book by Charles G. Finney, an American Presbyterian minister who was known as the "Father of Old Revivalism." Finney departs strongly from traditional Calvinist theology by teaching that people have a completely free will to choose salvation. He taught that preachers had vital roles in producing revival. Finney's theory of atonement combines principles from different historical theories, notably the governmental and the moral influence theories, but can't be associated solely to one of them. A major theme of his preaching is the need for what he called conversion. He also focused on the responsibilities that converts had to dedicate themselves to disinterested benevolence and to work to build the kingdom of God on earth.

The Lord's Prayer - Learning...

Kevin DeYoung

Bestselling Author Kevin DeYoung Explores Jesus's Foundational Prayer
Christians know the importance of prayer, but the act of praying can be a real challenge. Some have the desire, but not always the will; others worry they don't do it well. Books about prayer usually emphasize spiritual discipline, but that can foster more guilt than reassurance. So how can Christians improve their prayer life, embracing the privilege of communicating with God? 
In The Lord's Prayer, Kevin DeYoung closely examines Christ's model for prayer, giving readers a deeper understanding of its content and meaning, and how it works in the lives of God's people. Walking through the Lord's Prayer word by word, DeYoung helps believers gain the conviction to develop a stronger prayer life, and a sense of freedom to do so.

- Concise, Inspiring Guide to Prayer: Examines Luke 11:1–2 and Matthew 6:5–9, gives biblical and historical context to each part of the Lord's Prayer, and ends with a doxology
- Accessible Resource for Many Readers: A great guide for laypeople and students as well as for pastors, church leaders, and ministry leaders
- Versatile Resource: A useful reference for seminary review or personal devotional reading

7 Day Manifestation Experiment -...

Steve Martile

“Do you want to know what you think about most of the time? Take a look at the results you’re getting. That will tell you exactly what’s going on inside.” ~ Bob Proctor
You are constantly reinforcing whatever you put your attention on. Your attention creates your reality. When you focus on everything happening outside of you, you simply get more of those items showing up in your life. This is fine when it is stuff you want, but what about when it is not?
If you want to create something new, you must go inside and make changes at that level of reality. There is no limit to what you can do, be, or have. You have been designed to perform miracles. You can create whatever you wish.
Here’s What You’ll Learn in this book:
- Develop empowering self-confidence.
- Use your imagination to attract miracles into your life.
- Train yourself to focus on your 'inner being' and nourish the connection with the loving energy of the Creator.
- Overcome limiting beliefs that prevent you from attracting the abundance and joy you deserve.
- Use the illusion of truth to train your mind to focus your thoughts upon a desired outcome so that it materializes in physical form.
My purpose with this book is to remind you that you are the co-creator. You are the wizard. You are the magician. You are the painter. You are the Picasso of your life. It’s all you.

The Cost of Control - Why We...

Sharon Hodde Miller

We all wish we had more control. When our relationships are strained, when our bodies refuse to cooperate, when the future is uncertain, control promises security and peace. If only I were in charge, we dream. And this illusion seems more attainable than ever. Technology, science, medicine, and the internet all promise us ever-increasing mastery over our world. 
 
 
 
The problem is, control is a "devil's deal." The more we seek it, the more it betrays us. In place of predictability, it gives us anxiety. In place of certainty, it creates more complexity. And in place of unity, it divides. It's not just that we cannot control things; it's that we break them even more when we try. 
 
 
 
Thankfully the answer to our craving is not simply to "let go and let God." When our kids aren't listening, when our loved ones are self-destructing, or when our health is declining, we don't have to scramble after control, nor do we have to throw up our hands. Instead, God has given us a better tool. 
 
 
 
In this culturally insightful and eye-opening book, Sharon Hodde Miller helps us discover the real power God has given us in Christ, to exercise influence over ourselves and our lives.

STRANDED - The Diary of a Church...

Dave Gilpin, Jenny Gilpin

Church Planting is a serious business- it’s like mountain climbing where some rocks are firm while others crumble directly beneath you. It’s challenging like nothing else, yet the views are like no other. You can actually see heaven invading earth, as well as humanity in all of its humanness.  
This is our diary of church planting in England- the north of England- 10,000 miles from our hometown in Australia. It starts at the end where storms erupt and rocks give way- eventually uprooting us back to the land that sent us. It then shoots to day one of year one – the day we arrived at Heathrow Airport and caught a train to the northern heartland of Britain to start a church in a place where we knew no one.  
The first 10 years records the successes and failures, the gatherings and the dispersing, the mountains and the valleys, all made worth it by the breakthroughs both large and little. The second 10 years takes the listener on a whirlwind tour as we plant new congregations here there and everywhere, seeing, by year 14, a thousand people in our weekend services.  
The final years saw the church peaking with over 2000 in our services over 10 locations. STRANDED then crosses over into the terrain that finally triggered a war for our future- battle lines were drawn and darkness descended. But none of this is just our story- it's the story of everyone who dares to step out in faith to go to places they’ve never been, to see dreams come true that many have never dreamt - it’s the guts and the glory, the power and the providence working hand in hand for an eternal future.  
It’s a holy journey but not for the faint hearted.
