Summary

Understanding the Anointing is a must-read book! The first thing Jesus declared when He started ministry was that the Spirit of God was upon Him. He went further to say that the same Spirit of God anointed Him to preach the gospel to the poor; to heal the broken-hearted and to preach deliverance to the captives. It was such an enormous assignment, and it was only possible by the anointing that came upon His life. The anointing is not a philosophical, theological, or psychological idea, but the Holy Spirit and His presence in manifestation. In this book, we will look deeply at the anointing for our spiritual enlightenment and empowerment.
 
We live in a dispensation of time where evil is escalating. It is a perilous time because evil has now become good and good has become evil. (Isaiah 5:20). Hence, the need for you and me to walk in the anointing of God. However, it is impossible to walk in the anointing of the Holy Spirit without a sufficient understanding of what it is. With spiritual understanding comes spiritual empowerment and elevation. Even before we talk about the anointing, we must understand what it is with the help of the Holy Spirit. Some Christians don’t care whether they understand it!

Hope is not a wish waiting to come true. It's not an external desire waiting to be realized. Hope is an ever-present reality regardless of how dire a situation may seem. 
Undoubtedly, there are moments when hope is obscure. That's because hope has many hiding places. It hides behind heartbreak, camouflages in stress, and disguises itself in grief. It only takes a few disappointments before our expectations are hijacked by doubt and disbelief. Hope is easy to lose and hard to find, but there is never a season when hope is out of reach.All Hope is Found, by bestselling author of?Woman Evolve?Sarah Jakes Roberts, will showHope can be broken.Hope can be reframed.Hope can be put to work.Hope can spread.

Sarah is not shaking up your life with renewed expectation and the epic pursuit of hope for you to go back to your norm. She wants you to get out of your comfort zone and into your go zone—the space where the abnormal eventually becomes comfortable because you refused to give up.

  • Exploring the Financial Parables of Jesus - The Economy of Grace and the Generosity of God - cover

    Exploring the Financial Parables...

    Storytelling is a powerful and effective means of communication, a truth Jesus knew and used to great advantage in his parables. Many of the plots in these parables involve financial matters. They teach about God's perspective on money, resources, and their use, but further, they teach profound spiritual truths about the kingdom of God. This kingdom operates according to a different kind of economy, wherein relationships, love, and serving others take precedence over accumulating wealth and possessions. 
 
Taken together, the parables examined in this book paint a picture of divine generosity and grace in both the financial and spiritual realms. This in turn challenges readers to reexamine their priorities and how money and possessions can be used for the kingdom. 
 
The author brings his expertise in literature and biblical studies to bear in a fresh examination of the nature of parables and their interpretation in general and of a number of Jesus's prominent parables with financial themes, all with an eye toward contemporary application. He does so without scholarly jargon, making this accessible book ideal for both undergraduate courses on the Gospels and for church leaders and groups.

    It's no secret that we live in an increasingly isolated world. 
 
 
 
The pandemic has only exacerbated what was already a startling trend: loneliness and disconnection have been on the rise for a long time in our society. We long for a deep sense of meaning to make sense of our lives, but we don't know how to find it. Even worse, we often search for it in unhealthy ways that hinder the very thing we're desperate for: genuine relational connection. 
 
 
 
Psychologist Todd Hall has been researching human relationships and ways of connecting for many years. In The Connected Life, he offers the fruit of that work, contending that real human growth doesn't come through head knowledge alone but through relational knowledge and strong attachment bonds. It's our relationships—with God and others—that lead to authentic transformation. Ultimately, the family of God provides the best context for lasting growth. 
 
 
 
Here is a wise, accessible introduction to transformative relational connection, addressing the deeply felt disconnection in our society and inviting us into lasting relationships with God and others.

    Written in an accessible, conversational style that incorporates numerous stories and questions, this book exposes the weaknesses of a Western worldview through a personal engagement with Indigenous theology. Randy Woodley critiques the worldview that undergirds the North American church by dismantling assumptions regarding early North American histories and civilizations, offering a comparative analysis of worldviews, and demonstrating a decolonized approach to Christian theology. 
 
 
 
Woodley explains that Western theology has settled for a particular view of God and has perpetuated that basic view for hundreds of years, but Indigenous theology originates from a completely different DNA. Instead of beginning with God-created humanity, it begins with God-created place. Instead of emphasizing individualism, it emphasizes a corporateness that encompasses the whole community of creation. And instead of being about the next world, it is about the tangibility of our lived experiences in this present world. The book encourages listeners to reject the many problematic aspects of the Western worldview and to convert to a worldview that is closer to that of both Indigenous traditions and Jesus.
