Summary

Love. According to 1 Corinthians 13:7, "It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." Always. There's a word that we would rather ignore. Is it even possible to always choose love?


 


The first days or weeks of marriage might feel easy; loving your spouse is as natural as breathing. But if you've been married for longer than a month, you've likely run into times when choosing love requires effort—sometimes a lot of effort. What would it look like to always protect each other? How can you trust when trust has been broken? Is there hope for a relationship that feels like a constant struggle? What can you do to persevere in the moments you want to yell, cry, throw things, run away, or do all of the above?


 


Commit your marriage to God. Spend time in his presence together. Keep short accounts. Say sorry. Forgive quickly. Use this devotional as a tool strengthen your marriage. It will encourage you to dive into God's Word, seek his wisdom, ask for help, and lean into his love. You cannot always choose love in your own strength, but everything is possible with God, and God is love. So, you can love because he loves you—always.

    Grieving is part of every blended family. Sabrina and her new husband were both widowed when their families blended, so grieving was expected. They recognized the losses suffered in their families would take time to heal. What they have since learned is that every blended family experiences grieving―whether you are widowed or divorced. And the process usually takes longer than expected. Sabrina vulnerably shares her personal experiences and struggles, revealing her mistakes and fears that she had early on in her new marriage and with her new family. In A Home Built from Love and Loss, you’ll learn to  work through different parenting styles as a stepmother or stepfather;  parent kids in different ages and stages of development (hormones, personalities, and power dynamics);  compassionately address chaos and hurt feelings together and independently;  deal with feelings of guilt;  handle initial rejection from stepchildren;  glean biblical wisdom on how to do life together with grace;  connect better on an emotional level with your newly-formed family while keeping traditions that have grounded your family; and  honor the bereaved or divorced spouse.  For anyone facing the challenges of blended families, A Home Built from Love and Loss offers practical advice and spiritual guidance to find hope in the midst of grief.

    Religionless Christianity -...

    Christianity is not about rituals but changed hearts. In the prophetic tradition of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Eric Metaxas calls slumbering Christians to battle. 
    Picking up where he left off in his electrifying Letter to the American Church, Eric Metaxas renews and deepens his call to believers not to “practice” their faith but to live it—heroically and with joy.  
    Invoking famous but misunderstood words of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, he shows that God’s answer to evil is “religionless Christianity”—the rejection of religiosity and the embrace of a living and active faith, one that consumes the whole person and affects every aspect of his life. The awakening of this faith will bring revival, a “new birth of freedom,” and a renaissance of Christian culture.

    Our Saint was born in the beautiful countryside of Verdu in Catalonia, Spain in or around 1581. There's not much known about his childhood, other than he was born of a distinguished old family of Catalonia. However, his family instilled in him the love of Jesus and the love of his fellow man. Otherwise, how could he possibly have dedicated his life to helping the poorest of the poor, the lowest of the low. From an early age, it was well known that he was destined to live his life for the Church. So when he was old enough, he was enrolled in the University of Barcelona.

    On February 5, 1969 Drs. Montgomery and Steen were invited to the campus of DePaul University to debate the question, "Is there a supreme being - someone above me - who knows me, who watches out for me, who can help me, who is my guarantee of eternal life; or is man on his own in this universe?" Julian J. Steen was Dean of the Chicago School for Adults, and a well-known American humanist.

    Read the Bible Like a Mystic -...

    There is a better way to read the Bible: with the eyes of a mystic and the heart of contemplation. 
     
     
     
    Can the Bible be saved? More and more Christians are troubled by how difficult passages in the Bible can be used to promote sexism, homophobia, hostility to other faiths, and other problems—but a sterile, "academic" reading of the sacred text seems spiritually unfulfilling. Carl McColman, author of The New Big Book of Christian Mysticism, reminds us that there is an ancient "third way" of approaching the Bible: reading the scripture like a mystic. This contemplative approach to the Bible understands that much of the sacred text was never meant to be taken literally, yet this approach maintains that spiritual wisdom, guidance in prayer, and encouragement for meditation are encoded throughout the sacred text. 
     
     
     
    Read the Bible like a Mystic will help Christians find an expanded relationship with their sacred textbook, and it will also invite all people—Christian and non-Christian alike—to bring together the wisdom of the written word with the wisdom of the contemplative life and the call to foster peace, justice, and equality in our world. Whether you come to the Bible from a preexisting interest in Christianity or mysticism, this book shows how contemplative wisdom unlocks the liberating power of the Word for our time.
