Book Description
Susan Vogt knew she had far more stuff in her closets than she needed. So, for Lent one year, Susan took action: she gave away one thing a day for forty days. But what happened during that penitential period surprised her; she became so addicted to identifying unnecessary things in her life that she continued the practice for a full year. Then she began letting go of other baggage—some physical, some emotional—and found that, far from feeling poorer, she felt freer and more fulfilled than ever before. A spiritual place had opened that allowed Susan to unclutter her mind and deepen her faith. Blessed by Less offers encouragement and inspiration for all who are burdened down by “things” in their homes and hearts but don’t quite know how to begin the process of letting go. Susan includes tips for beginners and challenges for those who’ve been simplifying for years. Rather than making readers feel guilty for all the stuff they’ve accumulated, Susan gently nudges them to see all that they have to gain—physically, emotionally, and most of all spiritually—by living lightly. Practical from start to finish, Blessed by Less shows how one woman’s journey into a simpler, less cluttered life can also be our journey and how taking a spiritual perspective on the matter can lead to abundant blessings we would have otherwise missed.

Book Description
What If You Could Change the World without Changing Your Daily Routine? When you’ve been transformed by God’s love, you can’t help but want others to experience the same grace and freedom. But how do you share it without scaring them away or offending them? For most Christians, “evangelism” is an intimidating word that suggests handing out tracts to strangers or doing other awkward things. But what if there was a more organic, more authentic way to share your faith with your friends, neighbors, and coworkers? Dave and Jon Ferguson have found five simple, straightforward practices that will allow any believer to do just that. And by consistently living them out, you can affect not just individual lives but your entire neighborhood and community—one person at a time.

The Slippery Curse of the Blessed Life
Author: John D. Emens PhD
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664244719
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
Relationship, not religion. Faith, not fear. Devotion, not division. Adoration despite adversity God is patient, kind, merciful, and forgiving. Eternal life is His true gift. Developing a close, positive, meaningful relationship with the Lord provides peace and joy despite hardship. In a Christ-centered compendium of reflections inspired by his personal suffering as a physically compromised man, including leg amputation and protracted dialysis, John Emens shares scriptural strategies and life lessons with the hope of helping believers grow spiritually while gaining a more intimate knowledge of God and His ways. Within his affirming, evangelical writings, Emens touches on several topics such as simple spiritual insights gained even if only in an old fishing boat, to the inescapable joy of hearing the still small voice of the Lord despite the daily maelstrom of life, and why it is important to praise and bless Him not for what he can give us but for what He has already done for us, and much more. Included are relatable passages from the bible that remind us of the power and grace of the Lord and the beauty that awaits us for all eternity. The Slippery Curse of the Blessed Life is a collection of inspirational poems, reflections, and spiritual nuggets that encourages a deep, meaningful exploration of faith in order to better understand the character, nature, and loving habits of the Lord.

Blessed in the Mess
Author: Joyce Meyer
Publisher: FaithWords

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
Renowned Bible teacher and #1 New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer shows readers how to not just survive but thrive amidst both the everyday and the monumental messes we experience in life. Life is often messy. We hear people say, “My life is a mess,” or “This situation is a mess.” What they mean is that life has become difficult, painful or confusing. But God never promised us a trouble-free life. In fact, His Word tells us to expect the opposite. In John 16:33, Jesus says, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (NIV). In Blessed in the Mess, beloved Bible teacher Joyce Meyer shows us how to be blessed in the midst of life’s most challenging circumstances. The Bible is filled with instructions on how to handle ourselves when difficulty comes our way, and Blessed in the Mess shares that wisdom through poignant and practical teaching that equips us to remain stable and hopeful in every situation. No matter what problems we may face, there is a way to remain joyful and patient as God works on them. If you have not handled the messy issues or challenges in your life well in the past, then with God's help, you can begin to manage them better, starting now. We should never waste our pain. Through the wisdom distilled in this book, we can learn how to gain something from our messes, use those insights to avoid trouble in the future, and share our experiences to help other people find blessings in the midst of their messes. A study guide as well as a Spanish edition, Bendición en el desorden, are also available for purchase.
