The Bible Unwrapped by Meghan Larissa Good Pdf

Foreword by Greg Boyd 2019 Outreach Magazine Resource of the Year: Theology/Biblical Studies Category Many people have questions about Scripture they are too afraid to ask. Are all the stories of the Bible true? What about all the books that got left out? What do we make of all that violence? What do we do when biblical authors seem to disagree? And what if we encounter situations the Bible doesn’t address? Drawing from the best of contemporary biblical scholarship and the ancient well of Christian tradition, scholar and preacher Meghan Larissa Good helps readers consider why the Bible matters. Known for presenting complex theological ideas in accessible, engaging ways, Good delves into issues like biblical authority, literary genre, and Christ-centered hermeneutics, and calls readers beyond either knee-jerk biblicism, on the one hand, or skeptical disregard on the other. Instead, The Bible Unwrapped invites readers to faithful reading, communal discernment, and deep and transformative wonder about Scripture. Join an honest conversation about the Bible that is spiritually alive and intellectually credible. Read the ancient story of God in the world. You may even learn to love it.

God Unwrapped by Michelle Hollomon Pdf

Publisher's description: Various misconceptions about God are closely linked to god-figures we had growing up, like parents, teachers and coaches. We were raised by imperfect people, and without even knowing it, we have views of an imperfect God. The thing is, our view of God is the most powerful indicator of our success in life. If our view of God is warped, it can devastate how we relate to ourselves and others, ultimately leaving us disappointed with God and life. God Unwrapped will give you the breakthrough you've been looking for. You'll be able to: See God for who He really is; See yourself as God sees you; Overcome the obstacles that stopped you in the past; Pursue the God-given, unique call on your life; Realize the confident life God always wanted for you.

How can God be in the mess I'm wrapped up in? Why does he allow this pain? Where is he in this world of sexual abuse, child molestation, addiction, bullying, harassment, disease, and drugs? In Unwrapped At the Edge of Grace, How to Overcome in a World that Overwhelms, Carol shares her story of redemption and transformation and how God was present in the evil and delivered her from a destiny of darkness.

And frankly, I couldn't put it down. I lost track of the times I said, "What?" or "Wow!"

Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today’s Children by La Verne Tolbert Pdf

Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today's Children: A Holistic Approach answers questions about the most effective ways to help children, pre-teens, and teens develop spiritually. This collection of research gleaned from presentations during the Fourth Triennial Children's Spirituality Conference at Concordia University in 2012 is divided into four major sections: (1) theological and historical foundations, (2) engaging parents and congregations, (3) engaging methodologies, and (4) exploring children at risk, child pornography, social justice, intercultural diversity, and abstinence education. Researchers acknowledge that the home is the foundation for Christian nurture. In Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today's Children, both scholars and ministry leaders come together with parents to promote a holistic environment where children are encouraged to love, respect, and obey God. From birth to high school, children's voices resonate throughout these studies as they are invited to share their reflections and experiences. Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today's Children is a lively, easy-to-read collection that reflects a broad range of faith traditions and is ideal for all those who are committed to the spiritual development of children.
