Everyone wants to be significant. To a certain extent, this is natural and good—evidence of our God-given desire for meaning and purpose. However, our longing for significance can easily twist into an insatiable craving for approval, recognition, and praise—and, if left unchecked, this craving will enslave us. In Glory Hunger, pastor JR Vassar challenges Christians to reevaluate their priorities when it comes to leaving a legacy, pointing to the gospel as the key to freedom from the bondage of narcissism and insecurity. Addressing cultural obsessions such as physical beauty and the goal of cultivating a “perfect” digital reputation via social media, this book will help readers refocus on what really matters: living a life marked by the passionate pursuit of God’s glory above all else.

How Can I Be As Hungry For God As I Am For a Cookie? From the author of the number one Christian weight loss memoir, Sweet Grace: How I Lost 250 Pounds, comes Teresa's long-awaited nine-session Bible study. For years I craved sweets and comfort foods. When I was lonely, tired, angry, depressed, overwhelmed, stressed or even happy, my first reaction was to run to my drug of choice. My god had become my stomach. God was not on the throne of my life. In order to lose 260 pounds, I had to put God back in His rightful place as my Lord, Master and King. I had to let Him lead me every step of the way. The result was understanding that God's heart's desire is that we all come closer to Him. I have come a long way from when I weighed 430 pounds. I now understand life is about stepping into the assignment God has for me, not eating whatever I want, whenever I want. This Bible study will relate to whatever is holding you back from doing the same, whether it is food, drugs, alcohol, bad relationships, lying, cheating, poor choices or just a plain old rebellious spirit. Designed for personal Bible study, the nine lessons, questions and activities in Sweet Hunger can also be used for groups. The FREE Sweet Hunger Leader's Guide is available from TeresaShieldsParker.com. Also available for purchase from her website are nine Sweet Hunger video teaching sessions.

The world has made progress against hunger and poverty, and we have the opportunity---now---to win changes that will reduce hunger and poverty in the United States and around the world. God is calling people of faith and conscience to change the politics of hunger. "David Beckmann and Bread for the World have done an extraordinary job not only in providing positive responses in the fight against hunger but in helping to lead the way in terms of development and urging the United States to improve coordination and better target our investments and to learn from local communities." ---Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State "It has been my privilege to work with Bread for the World and witness their remarkable work on behalf of hungry people." ---Senator Richard Lugar, Ranking Republican, Senate Foreign Relations Committee "I am delighted to endorse David Beckmann's new book. I have the highest regard for him and his work." ---Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, Catholic Archbishop Emeritus of Washington "This is a message for which the church and the world are hungry." ---Mark Hanson, Presiding Bishop, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America "When people of hope engage politically, effective change can and does happen. To learn how, read this book-and act!" ---Katherine Jefferts Schori, Presiding Bishop, Episcopal Church "David points to the potential for far greater progress if individual Christians and churches will continue to offer grassroots compassionate care to those in need, while also boldly challenging our government to more generously and wisely participate with us in the battle against poverty and hunger." ---Lynne Hybels, Cofounder, Willow Creek Community Church "Exodus from Hunger tells us how God is moving in history with a concern for the poor and invites us to join that movement." ---Jim Wallis, President, Sojourners "Beckmann tells the truth in ways that empower!" ---Walter Brueggemann, Professor Emeritus, Columbia Theological Seminary

There is an appetite for God. And it can be awakened. I invite you to turn from the dulling effects of food and the dangers of idolatry, and to say with some simple fast: "This much, O God, I want you." Our appetites dictate the direction of our lives - whether it be the cravings of our stomachs, the passionate desire for possessions or power, or the longings of our spirits for God. But for the Christian, the hunger for anything besides God can be an arch-enemy. While our hunger for God - and Him alone - is the only thing that will bring victory. Do you have that hunger for Him? As John Piper puts it: "If we don't feel strong desires for the manifestation of the glory of God, it is not because you have drunk deeply and are satisfied. It is because we have nibbled so long at the table of the world. Our soul is stuffed with small things, and there is no room for the great." If we are full of what the world offers, then perhaps a fast might express, or even increase, our soul's appetite for God. Between the dangers of self-denial and self-indulgence is this path of pleasant pain called fasting. It is the path John Piper invites you to travel in this book. For when God is the supreme hunger of your heart, He will be supreme in everything. And when you are most satisfied in Him, He will be most glorified in you.

How Our Hunger Leads Us Closer to Jesus Many Christians—especially those who have grown up in the church—seem to be living "good" lives, free from extreme hardship and scandalous sin. Yet even this good life leaves them longing. Regardless of our backgrounds and circumstances, all of us have a deep hunger that only Jesus can satisfy. In this book, Amy DiMarcangelo invites readers to feast at the table of grace, where they will find God's vast glory and intimate care, his strength made perfect in weakness, and his gifts of joy and comfort to his children. Even the most hungry Christians will be encouraged that they "may be filled with all the fullness of God" (Ephesians 3:19). Encouragement for Christian Women: Written to help both new and mature Christians embrace their need for Christ and find satisfaction in him alone Biblical: Unfolds the unsearchable glories of God through his word Discussion Questions and Recommended Books: Provides an opportunity for group study and further reflection Published in partnership with the Gospel Coalition

How is rage related to hunger? Hunger is a liminal experience, connected to powerlessness, shame, and violence. Hunger does not issue into speech. It cannot therefore be easily found in the biblical texts, written by (and about) people who knew hunger. It hides behind the words in these texts. Rage, conversely, finds expression; and in the texts, it can alert readers to hidden experiences of hunger. But rage is not just a response to the lack of food. It is also a transformative force, reaching towards a justice that is not yet real. The experience of hunger and the fear of famine often go hand in hand with anger--a rage that can bring whole populations to their feet. Luzia Sutter Rehmann develops a biblical hermeneutic that centers on the "fire" in the belly of the hungry, their rage that leads to protests and uprisings. Her reading shows "the poor" or "the many" as those with whom Jesus cooperates and as subjects acting on their own initiative. The book also highlights key socio-historical information on the food situation of ancient Rome and Palestine: on poverty, political dependence and unrest, droughts, and famines.

Stop looking for the Book of Mormon in Mesoamerica and start looking for Mesoamerica in the Book of Mormon! Second Witness, a new six-volume series from Greg Kofford Books, takes a detailed, verse-by-verse look at the Book of Mormon. It marshals the best of modern scholarship and new insights into a consistent picture of the Book of Mormon as a historical document. Taking a faithful but scholarly approach to the text and reading it through the insights of linguistics, anthropology, and ethnohistory, the commentary approaches the text from a variety of perspectives: how it was created, how it relates to history and culture, and what religious insights it provides. The commentary accepts the best modern scholarship, which focuses on a particular region of Mesoamerica as the most plausible location for the Book of Mormon’s setting. For the first time, that location—its peoples, cultures, and historical trends—are used as the backdrop for reading the text. The historical background is not presented as proof, but rather as an explanatory context. The commentary does not forget Mormon’s purpose in writing. It discusses the doctrinal and theological aspects of the text and highlights the way in which Mormon created it to meet his goal of “convincing . . . the Jew and Gentile that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God.”

In this country alone, there are over 22 million children receiving free or reduced meals during the school year. During the summer months those same children can scarcely find a free nutritious meal. Using Lamentations 2:19 as a guide, Christians are to respond to the hunger that they see on the streets of America and eventually throughout the world. The assignment begins at home, by making sure that no child goes hungry in America. I present this book to stir, to move, and, to compel Christians to action in regards to ending hunger in the name of Jesus Christ. I lay out compelling reasons biblically, historically, and, theologically, why Christians should respond to the call to feed hungry children. I pray that this book liberates Christians, to take action for the children in our neighborhoods, in our state, in our country and in the world who need food.

Do you want to make a true difference in the world? Dr. Ron Sider does. He has, since before he first published Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger in 1978. Despite a dramatic reduction in world hunger since then, 34,000 children still die daily of starvation and preventable disease, and 1.3 billion people, worldwide, remain in abject poverty. So, the professor of theology went back to re-examine the issues by twenty-first century standards. Finding that Conservatives blame morally reprehensible individual choices, and Liberals blame constrictive social and economic policy, Dr. Sider finds himself agreeing with both sides. In this new look at an age-old problem, he offers not only a detailed explanation of the causes, but also a comprehensive series of practical solutions, in the hopes that Christians like him will choose to make a difference.

In this volume of work, you will find 60 devotionals. It is intended for you to read one devotional per week, for it serves as a call to action to ponder, to consider, and to reflect on your walk with God. They are written to also challenge your relationship with God. It is authentic, genuine and sincere? Are you truly abiding in His presence? Are you yielding and submitting to the Lord with all your might and strength? The question is simple: How hungry are you for God? How hungry are you to follow Him, to serve, to obey, to yield, to submit and to adhere to His perfect will? Are you really hungry? Are we just hungry for what God can do for us, or are we hungry for Him above all else? Are we just hungry for the work of His hands, or do we truly seek to have a real and meaningful relationship with God? Are we hungry to be faithful, loyal and dedicated to His Kingdom? Yes, do you love Him as you should? Do you serve Him as you should? Do you uphold His Word as you should? Take this journey, devote yourself to God and draw closer to Him. Seek Him, and He shall be found.
