Straining At The Oars by Bill Williamson Pdf

Do you ever feel as though you are working hard, but getting nowhere? Do you ever feel stuck? Do you want to give up? Are you exhausted? Is there a sense that something is keeping you back from getting to the Promised Land? Have you tried everything you can to find purpose and value? Have you stopped believing that you will never rise above your circumstances? Do you stop thinking you will ever experience the abundant life Christ came to give to those who follow Him. Don't give up. Don't throw in the towel. You're not alone. Everyone has moments, times, or even seasons of what Jesus' disciples experienced in Mark 6 when as they were "straining at the oars", "making headway painfully". You do not need to continually struggle in this life, even if the "storms of destruction" keep coming. You are not alone. God is with you. In this book, you will be invited to take a moment and consider what it is that is causing you to strain at the oars. You will be encouraged to set down the oars, to rest in God, to trust in the person of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you as you navigate your personal storms of destruction. In this insightful new book, author and pastor Bill Williamson draws a direct correlation between the circumstances life throws at us and how we can find peace - and victory - in the midst of life's storms.

I AM Changes Who i Am by Gregg Matte Pdf

Living the Christian life is not easy, especially in today’s culture. To be who and do what God commands, Christians need to recapture the miraculous. Unfortunately, miracles have been left either with cable TV faith healers or tour guides in the Holy Land. That has to change, because it’s by seeing what God does that we discover who He is. And knowing who He is and what He does will change who we are and what we do. Pastor Gregg Matte believes that the seven “I AM” statements and the seven miracles recorded in the Gospel of John can give believers a framework for living God’s will. In I AM Changes Who i Am, readers will explore what Jesus says and does and find out what that means for their walk with Him.

The Devouring by James R. Benn Pdf

A murder in wartime Switzerland reveals Swiss complicity with the Nazis in World War II, and US Army detective Billy Boyle is called to investigate. Europe, 1944: Captain Billy Boyle and his friend Lieutenant Piotr “Kaz” Kazimierz are sent to neutral Switzerland to work with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), investigating Swiss banks that are laundering looted Nazi gold. The US and Swiss governments are about to embark on diplomatic discussions regarding the Safehaven Protocols, aimed at limiting the amount of war materials exported by Switzerland to the Nazis, stemming the tide of looted gold, and preventing postwar use of Nazi wealth by war criminals. With the talks about to begin and the Gestapo ever present, the OSS wants Billy and Kaz to protect the participants, which turns out to be a very deadly task. The plans go wrong from the beginning when Billy and Kaz crashland in France. As they make their way through occupied territory to the border, they meet Anton Lasho, a member of the Sinti ethnic group, whose family was slaughtered by the Nazis, and who is, in turn, a one-man Nazi-killing machine. They’ll need his help, because as they find once they make it across the border, Swiss banks are openly laundering gold “harvested” from concentration camps, and those who are profiting will do everything they can to protect their wealth and hide their dark secrets.

Straining at the Oars by H. Dana Fearon,Gordon S. Mikoski Pdf

A common complaint of recent seminary graduates is their lack of preparation in practical theology, especially in the tasks of leadership. New pastors encounter a host of challenges that can seem overwhelming. Biblically oriented, wise, and reassuring, Dana Fearon presents twenty-one difficult situations that young ministers are likely to face on the job, including prayer in the hospital room, a request to baptize a dead infant, handling conflict and criticism, entering dangerous areas to reconcile hostile groups, and others. As part of his discussion, Fearon presents and reviews his own response to such situations, using his theological education and long experience in church ministry to instruct others.

Steady as she goes by Helmut Lucka Pdf

A story could not begin more ingloriously. Young Willi Lenz is bored at school and tries to cover up his lack of preparation with a fever. When he is caught stealing, he is expelled from school. There are also problems in the family because the father is building a house on his own with the help of his sons' labor. While his friends spend the weekend at the disco, Willi is "allowed" to work on the building site. Eventually, the idea of attending a ship's boy's school matures in him. The theoretical training is followed by two years of practical training on the ship MS "Fryga". This is followed by exciting adventures on deck, but also many professional insights into seafaring and the so-called "economic miracle era".
