The journey for many first-century believers was difficult because they had not fully grasped the magnitude of this new covenant relationship with Jesus Christ. The book of Hebrews was written for these new believers to help them understand that Jesus is their High Priest and that he and he alone can strengthen them for the journey of life. Jeff Snell has written a faith-building study from the book of Hebrews to remind us that Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews affirms that Jesus is able to strengthen us for the journey through this life and throughout eternity. Book jacket.

Strength for the Journey, Second Edition by Diana Butler Bass Pdf
• Updated version of spiritual autobiography from an important voice in the church • Insights on how parishes have confronted issues of change As a standard in the field of spiritual autobiography, Diana Butler Bass’ Strength for the Journey has been a guide for thousands of Christians who have also found themselves “journeying” along a path toward a faith different from that discovered in childhood. This new edition will retain all that drew readers to its pages alongside the voice of those next generation Christians now walking that path for themselves. In Strength for the Journey, Diana Butler Bass illustrates the dynamic strength and persistence of mainline Protestantism. While many baby boomers left the church, only to come back later in life, Bass was a “stayer” who witnessed the struggles and changes and found much there that was meaningful. Offering thought-provoking portraits of eight parishes she attended over two decades, she explores the major issues that have confronted mainline denominations, congregations, and parishioners during those years—from debates over women clergy to conflicts about diversity and community to scrimmages between tradition and innovation.
Strength For The Journey by Pastor Theophilus Titus Chondol Pdf
Early reflections and impressions about the significance of life on earth, and the purpose of our existence – to bring glory and pleasure to our God – remains the hallmark of this work. After all, what else are you here for, if not to live for the cause God created you? Jesus said, ‘For this cause came I unto this hour; to this end was I born and for this cause came I into the world’ (John 12: 27 and 18: 37). God in His grand plan for creation designed and decided our race, tribes, nationalities, geographical locations, times, seasons, and the bounds of our habitation. God planned that mankind may seek Him and find Him, because our purpose for existence is to His praise and glory (Acts 17: 26–28 and Isa. 43: 7 and 21). Theophilus approaches this book with simplicity, sharing his very experience with God, as he journeys in God to the place of true fulfilment in life. The message in this book encourages you to never settle for God’s second best, when your original place is there for you before the foundation of the world. God has made available the strength you need to be the person He had in mind for your assignment on earth. This book shares that with you and encourages you to pursue your fullness in God.

This collection of thoughtful reflections looks at events and activities of everyday life and discovers routes to spiritual practice and deeper, daily spirituality. At the behest of CREDO Institute, Inc., which hosts health and wellness conferences and is supported by the Episcopal Church Pension Fund, priest and CREDO conference leader Renée Miller wrote the 20 reflections and grouped them into the categories: Meditative Practice, Ministry Practice, Media Practice, Mind Practice, and Movement Practice. Each entry, accented with color photographs, is aimed at evoking mindfulness in the common activities of life, from music and movie going to reading, writing, and walking. For the reader who wishes to use the book to introduce or more deeply explore spiritual practices with other people or in an instructional setting, each chapter concludes with a nod toward who might be inclined to certain practices, based on individual predilections or personality. The Foreword by Herb Gunn lays out the theological underpinnings of spiritual discipline in what could stand alone as a primer on spiritual practice.

Strength for Your Leadership Journey by Tereka R. Williams Ed.D. Pdf
As a leader, you may face many different challenges on your leadership journey. It is rare that leaders take the time to truly reflect on the strength you must have to effectively lead any organization. I believe that it is through reflection that we are able to have quiet time with God, identify our own strengths and areas of growth, and privately revisit the moments we have already overcome through the power of Jesus Christ. It is my hope that this reflective leadership journal inspires, encourages, and increases your faith. For if God carried me through, He will certainly do the same for you. Each day is a blessing and a new opportunity to achieve greatness. Reflect, have faith, and enjoy the journey!
