Faith in the Midst of Storms by Anne K Leipego Pdf

As long as we walk the earth, storms of life will hit us, especially when we least expect. A storm can be short lived, prolonged, overwhelming and stressful, however, a storm is seasonal and temporary. It begins and ends. A storm can be caused by the enemy to distract you or plant a seed of doubt in your mind so that you start questioning God's power or presence in your life. You then fail to pick the inherent lesson or see the hidden beauty of a storm. God also causes storms in our lives to prove the genuineness of our faith; to perfect us; complete us and build our character. Storms recreate us in the image and likeness of God, as was meant to be in the beginning. In the midst of a raging storm, do not cry and do not give up. Be still, listen to His small voice and detect His presence. He is always with us be it in the car, workplace, grocery shop and even in the midst of a raging and fiery furnace. ...ONLY BELIEVE... Jeff W Simmons was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where he grew up. He started preaching when he was 19 and has been involved in pastoral ministry for over 36 years. He has started two churches, including Church 3.0 which was launched in 2012. Church 3.0 is located on Main Street in the historic district of Westminster, MD. Jeff's passion is teaching the Bible in a way that brings both revelation and practical application for everyday life. With his wife Michele of 34 years, he loves traveling to Bible lands and touring historic churches and cathedrals in Europe.

Faith - Through the Storm by Jez Smith Pdf

I have suffered on so many fronts, losing my health to losing my family and all the pain that that caused me. I spent a whole year and more seemingly holding on through the worst storm I have ever been in. Physically there is still a long way to go and a long road is still before me but I know that God is not finished with healing me. Physically my recovery has been very slow and frustrating and I am sure that my frustration has shown itself in the pages of this book, however I can clearly say that I would not be where I am today without my faith in God. One Sunday members of my church prayed for me because I had just had results that showed that their was no nerve activity in my legs below my knees and that according to the doctors showed that I did have nerve damage in my legs, however a week after their prayers for me God gave me the strength to walk into church on my crutches. I had been able for some weeks to walk short distances around my home on my crutches with splints controlling the position of my feet so that I did not drag my toes on the floor. Although my lower legs were not healed of their weakness God gave me the strength to walk further than I had ever walked before, and for me that told me that without prayer we can not overcome or expect to see positive results. Prayer is always the answer as is Jesus! I still find today that I have to be very careful with how much I do on any given day as busy days do result in me being very fatigued. My energy levels do dip quite badly, living with disabilities does mean doing things differently and adapting and I have found that every day has its own set of challenges where it comes to my physical weaknesses. However I have found that when I lean on God he always gives me enough strength for each day.

Tornado God by Peter J. Thuesen Pdf

One of the earliest sources of humanity's religious impulse was severe weather, which ancient peoples attributed to the wrath of storm gods. Enlightenment thinkers derided such beliefs as superstition and predicted they would pass away as humans became more scientifically and theologically sophisticated. But in America, scientific and theological hubris came face-to-face with the tornado, nature's most violent windstorm. Striking the United States more than any other nation, tornadoes have consistently defied scientists' efforts to unlock their secrets. Meteorologists now acknowledge that even the most powerful computers will likely never be able to predict a tornado's precise path. Similarly, tornadoes have repeatedly brought Americans to the outer limits of theology, drawing them into the vortex of such mysteries as how to reconcile suffering with a loving God and whether there is underlying purpose or randomness in the universe. In this groundbreaking history, Peter Thuesen captures the harrowing drama of tornadoes, as clergy, theologians, meteorologists, and ordinary citizens struggle to make sense of these death-dealing tempests. He argues that, in the tornado, Americans experience something that is at once culturally peculiar (the indigenous storm of the national imagination) and religiously primal (the sense of awe before an unpredictable and mysterious power). He also shows that, in an era of climate change, the weather raises the issue of society's complicity in natural disasters. In the whirlwind, Americans confront the question of their own destiny-how much is self-determined and how much is beyond human understanding or control.

Practicing the Power by Sam Storms Pdf

The Bible teaches us that we are to be filled with God's Spirit and that God's presence and grace is manifested among his people as they serve, love, and minister to one another. Yet some of the gifts that God offers to his people aren't commonly seen in many churches today. Gifts of prophecy, healing, tongues, and other supernatural gifts of God seem to be absent, and many Christians are unsure how to cultivate an atmosphere where God's Spirit can work while remaining committed to the foundational truth of God's Word. How can Christians pursue and implement the miraculous gifts of the Spirit without falling into fanatical excess and splitting the church in the process? In Practicing the Power, pastor and author Sam Storms offers practical steps to understanding and exercising spiritual gifts in a way that remains grounded in the word and centered in the gospel. With examples drawn from his forty years of ministry as a pastor and teachers, Storms offers a guidebook that can help pastors, elders, and church members understand what changes are needed to see God move in supernatural power and to guard against excess and abuse of the spiritual gifts. If you long to see God's Spirit move in your church and life, and aren't sure why that isn't happening or where to begin, this book is for you.

Storms Are Faith’s Workout by R. C. Jette Pdf

Are you struggling with the storms of this life? Do you feel overwhelmed with the constant onslaught? This book is your help to withstand the ambushes of an enemy that wants you to give up your faith. At seventy-one years of age, my life has endured the onslaught of many storms (trials of my faith), and through them I have gained insight as to how to overcome. This book uses scriptural and personal examples. I use a sound biblical foundation to build the chapters. Only the word of God can teach the truth that is needed in this trying and overwhelming time that we live in. The faith of many Christians is being attacked, and they do not know how to rise above. This book is compiled as a result of enduring the attacks that have been directed at me by a cunning and crafty enemy. It is through the storms assailed against me that I have learned how to surmount the ambushes. It is my prayer that my years of endurance will teach others how to do likewise. It will take an effort on their part to read the book to the end, but they should come away with an understanding of God's love, with the knowledge of how to overcome the storms, and how to be standing when the storm has ceased.

The Storm That Grew My Faith by Andrew Golden Pdf

The Storm That Grew My Faith" takes you on a roller coaster ride of emotions. The story of this family and Malachi's fight to become a strong healthy boy is an inspiration in Christian faith. The trials and tribulations will truly illustrate the power of God and the importance of faith in your life. As an adopted family member I have witnessed, with my own eyes, the power of God and the importance of a daily walk with Jesus. Before I met the Goldens, I was already saved by God's grace. However, I was not walking the path I knew I needed to be walking. We first met at the funeral of my brother and absolute best friend Billy and we immediately clicked. I have been able to watch little Malachi grow up into a firecracker of a kid and to see how quickly he has come so far is a true testament to the awesome powerof God. This book illustrates that, even where you are in the darkest place you've ever been in your life, the light that is your faith in Christ will guide you out of that darkness. Living through this with them and physically seeing the true power of faith has shown me that NOTHING is more important than walking in God's word. Faith WILL bring you out of the darkness and into the light.-Anthony JohnsonA story of struggle, pain, trials, and, ultimately, strength. Mr. Golden's experience with his trials gives a shining example of the tribulations and hardships that God tests our faith with. This is a true story of one man's test of faith, and the blessings and miracles that are bestowed to those who believe whole-heartedly. This story should shine as a reminder of God's will, and remind us that, although we may not understand why things are happening, God has a plan for everything. And we should trust in God and allow his will to flow through us. If you do not believe in miracles, I urge you to pick up this book and take to heart the many miracles instilled in its truth.-C. McCann
