Beschreibung

What If Times of Spiritual Dryness Are Actually Part of God's Plan? 
· Discover how to reframe times when God feels distant 
· Go beyond willpower and habit modification to true spiritual growth 
· Learn to live in, not just through, fallow times 
 
Most Christians experience zeal early in their Christian life, but when that fades to a season of dryness, it's tempting to assume one of two things: We have failed or God is absent. So we throw ourselves into ministry, spiritual disciplines, and study in order to break through to the other side of this dry season, not realizing that willpower and habit modification cannot "fix" our spiritual lives or kick-start a new season of spiritual growth. Why? Because we've missed the point of the wilderness.  
 
Far from being evidence that we're failing in our faith, spiritual dry seasons are actually part of God's plan to draw us into a deeper walk with him. With the wisdom and compassion of those who have been there, Kyle Strobel and John Coe invite you to draw near to the Lord as you walk through the differing seasons of the soul. They explain the purpose of the wilderness in the story of God's people--including our Savior--and show how our spiritual lives actually benefit from times of dryness. 
 
If you have found yourself in the desert, desperately longing for the living waters Jesus promises, this book will assure you that God is not absent--and you may be on the cusp of experiencing a deeper faith.

    He’s a tender-hearted firefighter who’s been burned by love. She’s an optimistic bookstore owner determined to heal his heart. Little do they know how much sacrifice it will take for them to be together. 
    Firefighter Darren Spark doesn’t think twice about risking it all when it comes to his job, but he’s not about to put his heart on the line for love. He's accepted the fact that no woman will want him when he can't promise them a future ...until he meets the one who challenges that belief. 
    Abandoned as a baby, Danica Reed longs to fill in the missing pieces of her past with a family of her own. She’s more than ready to get married and have kids, but she wonders why the perfect man—who's just as into her and wants the same things—keeps taking one step forward in their relationship, then two steps back. 
    Darren won’t let himself hope for more; Danica won’t settle for less. But there’s one obstacle they can’t seem to overcome. Will the spark that drew them to each other be enough to keep their love burning or will their short-lived romance go down in flames? 
    *Please note this book deals sensitively with the topic of male infertility.

    Jesus Revealed in the End Times...

    Most books about the end times focus on the events described in biblical prophecy--wars, natural disasters, economic turmoil, and more--rather than the One who is revealed in those events. The result? God's people end up fearful about what is to come rather than hopeful about Who is to come. But the Bible's prophecies of the last days can fill us with joy and peace as we anticipate the return and reign of our beloved savior, Jesus Christ. 
     
    In Jesus Revealed in the End Times, bestselling author Dr. Robert Jeffress takes a radically different approach to prophecy, helping you see the end times through the lens of Jesus Christ. You'll stop fretting about future events as you start to know Jesus more deeply, see him more clearly, and praise him more joyfully. 
     
    By the time you finish this book, you'll not only have a greater understanding of God's plan for the future but also have a greater sense of calm and courage in the face of what is to come because you've come to know the One who controls the future.

  • The Bible vs Biblical Womanhood - How God's Word Consistently Affirms Gender Equality - cover

    The Bible vs Biblical Womanhood...

    A biblical defense of egalitarianism that relies on Scripture to affirm gender equality in the eyes of God. 
    "Biblical womanhood" is the idea that the Bible teaches God-ordained male leadership and female submission in the home and subordination in the church. Some say this hierarchy of authority is sufficiently evidenced by examples of male leadership (and lack of female leadership) in the Bible: the first human was male, Israel's official priests were male, most authors of Scripture were male, Jesus was male and chose twelve male Apostles. God is addressed as Father. Wives are commanded to submit to their husbands. 
    In The Bible vs. Biblical Womanhood, New Testament scholar Philip B. Payne argues that the very Bible passages that are often believed to teach male headship and female subordination actually teach gender equality. He demonstrates that the Bible does not endorse gender hierarchy but instead emphasizes:The Holy Spirit gifting all believers for ministryThe oneness of the body of Christ (the church) and the priesthood of all believersHumility, service, and mutual submission required of all believersFreedom and willingness to relinquish freedom in order to spread the gospel 
      
    These concepts are examined in 14 Bible passages throughout the Old and New Testaments, using careful exploration of Greek and Hebrew word meanings, historical and cultural context, and examples from Scripture. Payne defends his position by providing detailed answers to common objections at the end of each chapter. 
    The Bible vs. Biblical Womanhood is for those struggling to reconcile the Bible's seemingly contradictory teachings about man and woman. Readers will come away with greater confidence in the reliability of Scripture's consistent, harmonious message of gender equality.

    126 years after Andrew Murray first published Waiting on God in 1896, fellow South African, Colin Millar, brings a fresh charge to this relational and foundational practice of the Christian faith. These 31 meditations have been carefully and prayerfully updated in modern English, making them accessible to a new generation of believers. 
    Colin has taken one of Andrew Murray's quotes literally: "A minister has no more solemn duty than to teach people to wait on God." He has himself taught, challenged, and invited thousands into the practice of Waiting on God. And as they have responded to the call of God to wait on Him, several things have become very apparent:Many are encountering the simple yet overwhelming joy and peace of our Father to a much greater extent than ever before and now walking in a personal love relationship with God.Others are hearing and acting on an ever-clearer whisper of His voice in their hearts. He is even giving answers to prayers that they have never even prayed. 
    Would you, too, take up this charge to wait on God - alone or with your family, church, ministry, or business? 
    This book narrated by South African, Colin Millar, gives it a true Andrew Murray feel. The audiobook of 31 devotionals for the Christian seeking closer communion with God is more than a century old. Now beautifully updated in modern English, it continues to inspire and stir the faithful today. Spending time with these meditations on the Almighty can deepen your relationship with God and even change your life in just one month! A South African of Scottish ancestry, Dutch Reformed Church minister ANDREW MURRAY (1828-1917) was a prolific writer, publishing more than 200 powerful books, including Waiting on God, The School of Obedience, Absolute Surrender, and The Deeper Christian Life.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    In the bustling ports of the ancient East, Zayd ibn Musa is known for his unmatched skill and his paralyzing anxiety. His small dhow, Al-Barakah, is his last hope for survival against the oppressive monopoly of the great merchant Bahlul. Forced onto the treacherous Deep Route—a sea of uncharted shallows and violent squalls—Zayd’s preparations are stripped away, forcing him to confront his deepest fear: the loss of control. 
    From a miraculous escape from the Sea of Shallows to weathering a devastating squall, Zayd’s voyage becomes a sequence of physical and moral tests. His ultimate challenge is Layla, a young fugitive carrying explosive evidence against Bahlul, offering Zayd instant, but morally corrupted, wealth. 
    Listen to this epic journey of self-discovery where the power of human effort (Asbab) meets the serenity of divine reliance (Tawakkul). Discover what Zayd finds in the wreckage of his ship: a certainty (Yaqeen) that provision comes not from the ledger, but from the purity of the heart.
