Sinossi

In "The Person and Work of The Holy Spirit," R. A. Torrey presents a thorough theological exploration of the Holy Spirit's role within the Trinity and His active involvement in the lives of believers. Torrey's literary style combines clarity and depth, utilizing scriptural references alongside a persuasive narrative that engages both the theological novice and the seasoned scholar. This work can be viewed within the context of early 20th-century evangelical thought, emerging amidst debates surrounding the role of the Holy Spirit in the church and personal spiritual experience. R. A. Torrey, a prominent theologian and evangelist, was instrumental in shaping fundamentalist Christianity during his lifetime. His extensive ministry, coupled with a passion for biblical exegesis, informed his views on the Holy Spirit's personhood and work—while embracing a broader cultural milieu that sought to affirm traditional Christian doctrines against modernist interpretations. His dedication to education is evident in his role as the first dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, where he further developed his theological perspectives. This book is highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Holy Spirit's significance in Christian faith. Torrey's insightful analysis and compelling arguments make it an essential read for both clergy and laypersons alike, inviting readers to experience the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in their spiritual journeys.

    What does the Bible have to say about the end times? Bible prophecy reveals much concerning the end of the age, but for most believers, these prophecies can seem vague, confusing, or downright strange. Beloved author Derek Prince assures listeners concerned about what the future holds that the Bible's proven record of accuracy, extending over many centuries, validates its claim to predict future events with authority. The "secret things" may remain hidden from us, he says, but our responsibility is to study and act on the "revealed things." And the God who foretells the future is the one who will see us safely through. 
     
     
     
    This biblical, thorough treatment of end-times prophecy from an internationally respected Bible teacher is positioned to become the definitive word on the last days, both for Derek Prince's loyal listeners and for many new ones who will catch the vision of the glorious victory to come.

    As advancements in health and medicine extend our lifespan, women of the sandwich generation—those balancing the needs of both children and parents—are experiencing a multitude of challenges as they transition out of the workforce and into the promise of retirement. A Beautiful Second Act: Saints and Soul Sisters Who Taught Me to (Be a Badass) Age with Grace contains encouragement and wisdom from saints and contemporary soul sisters who experienced similar challenges during their transition to midlife and beyond, and offers insight into the aging process. These inspiring saints and contemporary changemakers from all over the world will help you, too, embrace your second half and the changes it brings to our health, our personal relationships, our responsibilities, our work, and our faith. 
      
    Each chapter offers experiences of female saints and soul sisters as they illuminate different aspects of this season of aging: physical changes in the body, shifts in work and purpose, dealing with aging parents and end-of-life issues, the need for strong spiritual friendships, and the importance of mercy. Drawing from a diverse range of occupations, races, times, and outcomes, Johnson writes about her own struggle to redefine her second act and what it means to trust God as our lives begin to wind down and our ultimate purpose comes into crystal-clear focus.

    So many of us are leaving conservative faith traditions behind, rightly saying goodbye to toxic theology, bigotry, and harm. But in the process, we often lose our rhythm of gathering, prayer, and worship. We may even lose our sense of connection to God. And we think it's our fault. But spiritual coach, speaker, and podcaster Kevin Miguel Garcia is here with a reminder: "We don't need saving because we were never in danger. We don't need to get found because we've never been lost. Everything we need to connect with the Divine is already inside us." 
     
     
     
    What Makes You Bloom is a guide to creating your new spiritual practice after your life or faith has fallen apart. When going to church, praying, and reading your Bible just doesn't cut it or outright disturbs you, this book will show you how to cultivate new, meaningful spiritual practices—like stillness, presence, breath, and movement—that will help you overcome the pain of your past and root yourself in the present. 
     
     
     
    Through stories, insights, and guided meditations, Garcia explains how the goal of every spiritual practice should be about the attainment of peace—about finding what truly makes you bloom. Along the way, you will discover that the smallest changes in your life can bring about the biggest transformations, and that a feeling of bliss is only a few breaths away.

    She broke her own rules: you can’t fall in love when you’re on the run... 
    Sandover Island seems like the perfect place for Mercer to escape her past, but she knows it's only a matter of time until it finds her. She isn't safe, not even in Beau’s strong arms, as tempting as they are. 
    The harder Beau pushes at Mercer’s walls, the stronger they seem to be. She gives him an inch, then steps back a mile. He knows she's worth the fight, if only she will give him her trust. 
    Just as Mercer finally starts to give in, the truth of her past barrels into her present. The question isn’t whether their love will survive, but will Mercer… 
    Trigger warning: This book deals with the topic of past domestic abuse, with little graphic detail.

    Loose of Earth - A Memoir

    Kathleen Dorothy Blackburn was the oldest of five children, a twelve-year-old from Lubbock, Texas, whose evangelical family eschewed public education for homeschooling, and wove improbable scientific theories into literal interpretations of the Bible. Then her father, a former air force pilot, was diagnosed with cancer at the age of thirty-eight, and, "it was like throwing gasoline on the Holy Spirit." Stirred by her mother, the family committed to an extreme diet and sought deliverance from equally extreme sources: a traveling tent preacher, a Malaysian holy man, a local faith-healer who led services called "Miracles on 34th Street." 
     
     
     
    What they didn't know was that their lives were entangled with a larger, less visible environmental catastrophe. Firefighting foams containing carcinogenic compounds had contaminated the drinking water of every military site where her father worked. Commonly referred to as "forever chemicals," the presence of PFAS in West Texas besieged a landscape already burdened with vanishing water, taking up residence in wells and in the bloodstreams of people who lived there. An arresting portrait of the pernicious creep of decline, and a powerful cry for environmental justice, Loose of Earth captures the desperate futility and unbending religious faith that devastated a family, leaving them waiting for a miracle that would never come.
