My Father's Amazing Journey of Faith by Sang Sun Lee,Dr. Stephanie Chung Pdf

Sang Sun Lee was a refugee in South Korea during the Korean War. He fled North Korea, leaving behind his wife, children, and parents. During a narrow escape from death, he made a promise to God in exchange for his life. Lee was true to his promise for the rest of his life. From building churches to building a business, being a true servant of God guided all his decisions and actions. Lee eventually became a businessperson and went from poverty to wealth and back again as he gave generously, and sometimes naively, to those who asked him for help. He was instrumental in the planting of numerous churches over the years and supported pastors and missionaries unfailingly, often putting their needs ahead of those of his own family. Throughout this time, Lee’s steadfast faith in God carried him and his family through every challenge and setback. Later in life, Lee was interviewed of his experiences, and that was published in an eight-month weekly series in The Christian Times. His daughter, Dr. Stephanie Chung, gathered her father’s articles to share his story and honour his life.

Learning from My Father by David Lawther Johnson Pdf

As a freshman at Harvard, David Johnson felt displaced, homesick, and overwhelmed by new intellectual challenges. So he began exchanging letters with his father, a Presbyterian pastor. Years later, David rediscovered those letters and realized how much candid, fatherly advice they contained -- and how their wisdom had shaped his life. Based on excerpts from these letters, Learning from My Father reflects movingly on life and death, faith and doubt, as seen through the eyes of a father and a son.

Jesus, My Father, the CIA, and Me by Ian Morgan Cron Pdf

A touching memoir of life with an alcoholic father who secretly works with the CIA, a dark pilgrimage through the valley of depression and addiction, and finding a faith to redeem and a strength to forgive. "This is a record of my life as I remember it—but more importantly, as I felt it." At the age of sixteen, Ian Morgan Cron was told by his mother that his father, a motion picture executive, worked with the CIA in Europe. This astonishing revelation, coupled with his father's dark struggle with alcoholism, upended the world of a teenager struggling to become a man. Born into a family of privilege and power, Ian's life is populated with colorful people and stories as his father takes the family on a wild roller-coaster ride through wealth and poverty and back again. Decades later, as he faced his own personal demons, Ian realized that the only way to find peace was to voyage back through a painful childhood marked by extremes—privilege and poverty, violence and tenderness, truth and deceit—that he’d spent years trying to escape. A fast-paced, unique memoir about the power of forgiveness from the bestselling author of The Road Back to You Details his father’s struggle with alcohol and Cron’s own journey from addiction to twenty-three years of sobriety Encouragement to see God’s redemptive power through life’s struggles In this surprisingly funny and forgiving memoir, Ian reminds us that no matter how different the pieces may be, in the end we are all cut from the same cloth, stitched by faith into an exquisite quilt of grace.

The Father and the Son by Matthew J. Murray Pdf

In this powerful, moving, and sometimes painful work week -- part memoir, part reportage -- Wall Street Journal reporter Matt Murray explores the reasons his widowed father, a middle-class homeowner and government worker, abandoned his world and moved to a rural monastery to become a monk. He thoughtfully traces his father's life, from his dirt-poor Depression-era childhood and his days as a struggling young writer to his sometimes frustrating role as a husband and parent, to the death of his wife from cancer. Throughout, Matt Murray wrestles with the impact of his father's return to the Church, with his subsequent decision to follow a life of faith, and witch the dramatic reshaping of his family that ensued. As he tracks his father's spiritual journey, he delves into his own beliefs, questioning not only his father's faith but his own and offering, with stark honesty, profound reflections on the complex relationship between father and son.

An Amazing Journey of Faith, Hope, and Love by Betty M. Day Pdf

Every little girl loves their daddy and thinks the sun rises and shines on everything he says and does; every little boy loves having their daddy beside them. Through every season, they look to their daddy as someone who sets the example of how to play fair and give life their best shot. Someone to look up to, to lean on . But most importantly to LOVE them! Love them for the rest of their lives and even their children's lives. Thank you for being the most wonderful, strong man you have always been. A MAN OF HONOR! So can you imagine how it must have felt when the doctor said to these three children, Your father has cancer and has only 6 months to live! There are no words to express our family's sorrow that day! But from that day forward, we decided that this journey God had us on would be one that inspired others; uplifted those who were being challenged the way we were being challenged; and we would give God all the honor and glory for all that He had done for us and would continue to do for us. Douglas said to us, I am going to beat this thing with God's help, my family and my friends! He fought to the very end of his life with amazing strength, faith and love of God, family and friends. And so our journey began . I feel so blessed that God placed so many people in our path as we shared our journey. God truly was the strength that we needed to get through each day. God brought us all together at this particular time and place in our lives.

Faith of Our Fathers by Mike Aquilina Pdf

Getting to know the Church Fathers means getting to know our own roots. It means knowing more deeply who we are as we learn more and more about who they are. The early Christians are our ancestors, our common genealogy, our family. When we look to our roots, what do we see? That's what Mike Aquilina shows you in this book. The Fathers managed to pull off an amazing achievement. They converted the pagan world in a mere two and a half centuries. They did it without any resources, without any social or political power. They did it with the most primitive communications media. Yet their Church sustained a steady growth rate of 40 percent per decade over the course of those centuries. Maybe there's something we can learn from them. This book is a journey into that world, a tour where your guides are the Fathers.

A Journey Through Faith by Associate Professor Political Science Jack Snyder,Jack Snyder Pdf

A Journey through Faith is an account of one man's journey experiencing and learning obedience to God's word. Jack is a marvelous storyteller. He uses that skill to illustrate from his own life how he walks out his faith in everyday life. It will stir your heart to perfect your own faith. Many have written on this foundational subject. But no one can tell the old story quite like Jack. He is a member of Fullness in Christ Church, Fort Worth, TX where he demonstrates his faith well. Ras Robinson, President Fullness in Christ Ministries, Inc. Fort Worth, TX 76179 A Journey through Faith is full of present-day experiences and lessons learned that have taken me from a lost soul to faithful Christian living. My journey through faith is not over. I know that I will continue to follow Jesus through this world until I pass from this world into Heaven. I pray the readers will gain insights with these experiences and lessons that will ease the trials of their own walk as Christians. But the greatest knowledge I can pass on is we will be in Heaven with Jesus if we can learn to take up our cross and follow Him.----Jack Snyder Jack sees a need, and moves to meet it! That expression speaks to his writing "A Journey through Faith." Jack's writings come from his experiential faith and love in action. The reader will enjoy his down home, often humorous practical interpretation of Scriptural truth. I highly recommend a thoughtful consideration of "A Journey through Faith."
