Jesus: His Story in Stone by Mike Mason Pdf

Jesus: His Story in Stone is a reflection on still-existing stone objects that Jesus would have known, seen, or even touched. Each of the seventy short chapters is accompanied by a photograph taken on location in Israel. Arranged chronologically, the one-page meditations compose a portrait of Christ as seen through the significant stones in His life, from the cave where He was born to the rock of Calvary. While packed with historical and archaeological detail, the book’s main thrust is devotional, leading the reader both spiritually and physically closer to Jesus.

The Very Stones Cry Out by Caroline Cox,Benedict Rogers Pdf

According to the World Evangelical Alliance, over 200 million Christians in at least 60 countries are denied fundamental human rights solely because of their faith. Many face widespread and systematic persecution. The Very Stones Cry Out is a passionate challenge to the rest of the Church, and all advocates of religious freedom, to break their silence on this issue. Baroness Cox presents graphic photographs and survivors' accounts as testimony to widespread destruction, and provides powerful documentary evidence of contemporary persecution. Featuring contributions from those with on the ground experience of the nations concerned, this book details the impact that sustained persecution has on individuals, families and communities. In doing so, it provides a moving account of resilience in the face of destruction, and joy in spite of trials, making this a book that is as much about celebration as it is about challenge.

The Stones Cry Out by Molyda Szymusiak Pdf

"The Stones Cry Out is startlingly good as literature. It is also an important addition to a thin historical record.... Her account of the revolutionary rhetoric, set against the reality of what the revolutionaries were actually doing, is as macabre as any of the descriptions of bodies." --The Wall Street Journal "This is a powerful and compelling story of terror, struggle and death sprinkled with moments of tenderness, written by a woman who writes not of politics but only of what she experienced."--New York Times Book Review In 1975, Molyda Szymusiak (her adoptive name), the daughter of a high Cambodian official, was twelve years old and leading a relatively peaceful life in Phnom Penh. Suddenly, on April 17, Khmer Rouge radicals seized the capital and drove all its inhabitants into the countryside. The chaos that followed has been widely publicized, most notably in the movie The Killing Fields. Murderous brutality coupled with raging famine caused the death of more than two million people, nearly a third of the population. This powerful memoir documents the horror Cambodians experienced in daily life.

Let the Stones Cry Out by Douglas Wilson Pdf

Architecture speaks. It is not possible for human beings to live in architectural silence. When congregations build church buildings, this is either a testimony or a mask. Let the Stones Cry Out Today we see many magnificent old church buildings abandoned because the Gospel went out of them long ago. However, good architecture and the proclamation of the Gospel should go hand in hand. Jesus Christ by his death on the cross made the kingdoms of this world His. The architecture of our church buildings should proclaim His lordship. In Let the Stones Cry Out, Douglas Wilson reflects on what a Christian church should look like, and how human nature wants to get it wrong. A glorious building without the gospel will soon be empty, and an ugly building is lying about the nature of our salvation. From fundraising to the first Sunday, Douglas Wilson provides much-needed wisdom on how to go about building a church and filling it so as to expand greatly the opportunities for ministry, locally and nationally. After all, worshipping God is not a means to another end. Worshipping God is the highest calling that any human being has. It requires no other justification.

Even the Stones Cry Out by Juliann Shannon,Julie Smith Pdf

All over the place we find them - references to the "digital nature of DNA." Or how the universe itself is digital, a "quantum computer," all about information processing. What does it all portend for the nature of the universe, of reality? Computers and modern technology have given us the ability to see that technology found in the things of the natural world far exceed what mankind is capable of making. Yet it is all attributed to the powers of random nothingness, or forces of neo-Darwinian evolution. But put the findings of Quantum Science with those from the Biological Sciences, and add the prophetic timeline depicted by the Bible and an amazing picture takes shape. Juliann Shannon takes you on an unprecedented tour, which arrives at some shocking conclusions. Contrary to what many voices in the science world are saying, the evidence of intelligence, design and programming, is all over the place - inescapable. This book is a wake up call to Christians and non-believers alike.

Let the Stones Cry Out by John Dillon Pdf

Paperback Format is Black and White while eBook is in color. God’s creation is intricate, delicate, magnificent, colorful, majestic, surprising, peaceful, powerful, awe-inspiring, and so much more! God loves us so much that he gave his only Son to die on a cross. Jesus willingly accepted God’s punishment for our sins, so that we, through faith, might have eternal life with Him. During Jesus’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the crowds shouted (Luke 19:38), “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” But the religious leaders could not handle the people honoring Jesus, and so they asked him to correct them. But Jesus said, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out” (Luke 19:40). In this book, John Dillon combines his incredible travel photography with biblical principles and insights from Scripture to point people to God. Each picture will help you appreciate God’s creativity and love, and encourage you to worship him, knowing that there is coming a day when God will call an end to this present age. At that time, there will be people in Christ from all races gathered together singing in one voice. This will be history’s greatest worship experience!

God of All Things by Andrew Wilson Pdf

Abstract theology is overrated, for God can be found in even the most ordinary of things. Jesus used things like a lily, sparrow, and sheep to teach about the kingdom of God. And in the Old Testament, God repeatedly describes himself and his saving work in relation to physical things such as a rock, horn, or eagle. In God of All Things, pastor and author Andrew Wilson invites you to rediscover God in this way, too--through ordinary, everyday things. He explores the idea of a material world and presents a variety of created marvels that reveal the gospel in everyday life and fuel worship and joy in God--marvels like: Dust: the image of God Horns: the salvation of God Donkeys: the peace of God Water: the life of God Viruses: the problem of God Cities: the kingdom of God God of All Things will leave you with a deeper understanding of Scripture, the world you live in, and the God who made it all.

The Stones Cry Out! by Josue Raul Conte Pdf

The Stones Cry Out is the story of Marco Lamadrid, an evangelical Christian in Latin America, who received a call to become a Catholic priest. Something happened to him one day when he stopped in a Catholic Church to admire the baroque art and had an experience that changed the direction of his entire life. When he left the baroque church a dream was born in his soul that led him to the United States and Rome. This is the story of how that dream became a nightmare and of his complete dedication to his faith and ideals throughout the various vicissitudes of his life. This is the story of that nightmare. About the Author: Son of an American mother and a Spanish father, Josue Raul Conte, a native of Andorra, a principality in the Pyrenees, was born in 1969. After his early education with the Jesuits, he enrolled at the Opus Dei University of Navarra in Pamplona, Spain, where he received his doctorate in medieval philosophy and literature. During his years at the university, he became a member of the Neo-catechumenal Way, but later was very disillusioned with the stringent constraints of ultraconservative Catholicism and adopted a more moderate approach to the faith and dropped out of the Way. Having taught at various colleges and universities, he is now a freelance journalist, living in San Francisco with his second wife Alicia and Ivan, their Russian wolfhound. He is also author of The Chancery Murders and Rosanada Requiem that continue the story that began in The Stones Cry Out and complete the Rosanada Trilogy.
