Ragged by Gretchen Ronnevik,Elyse Fitzpatrick Pdf

When we mistake spiritual disciplines for to-dos, time slots on our schedule, or Instagram-able moments, we miss the benefits of Christ's continual and constant work for us. In Ragged, Gretchen Ronnevik aims to reclaim spiritual disciplines as good gifts given by our good Father instead of heavy burdens of performance carried by the Christian. Only when we recognize our failures to maintain God's commands do we also realize the benefit of our dependence on his promises. Gretchen uses this distinction on law and gospel, presented throughout Scripture, to guide readers through spiritual disciplines including prayer, meditation, Scripture reading, and discipleship among others. Despite our best efforts, the good news is that spiritual disciplines have less to do with what we bring before God and more about who Christ is for us, not only as the author but also as the perfector of our faith.

A Better Way by David Zachariah Glover Pdf

Imagine a better way, perhaps the most implausible way, that God might use today to transform His people and His church, and as a result, truly change our culture. A Better Way, by author David Zachariah Glover, introduces PURE ministry and compels us to view all people differently by awakening the average Christian to the blessings and contributions of people with disabilities, PURE people, to the church and the community. Inspired by the brief journey with his grandson, Glover founded PURE Ministries to challenge Christians to see and listen to the needs of PURE people and their families in their daily lives and make them aware of ministry opportunities. He seeks to inspire Christians to learn how they can be involved and blessed and to equip them to act in their communities through their churches. A Better Way begins with the story of how God used a little boy, someone whom this world would not consider of much value, to change this Granddad and lead him to start the PURE movement. A Better Way provides a scriptural foundation on which PURE ministry can be built and presents practical information and suggestions on how we can lovingly relate and reach out to PURE people and their families. Glover shows us A Better Way is truly where least is most and is evidenced in real, enduring transformation of us and His church.

Incognito by Andrea Raynor Pdf

Filled with humor, insight, and faith, this true story tells how one young woman overcame challenges, stereotypes, and personal struggles at Harvard Divinity School and emerged an ordained minister. As a bright young girl from Ohio, Andrea Raynor always wanted to be a doctor. Instead, she landed—almost by accident—at Harvard Divinity School, which, she quickly discovered, was no typical semi­nary. When she attended, in the 1980s, HDS was a place overflowing with creative expression and freedom of thought. Her classmates included two men who were undergoing sex changes and a woman who fancied herself a geisha. There was a lively gay and lesbian caucus, marches on Washington, civil disobedience, and more sexual intrigue than could be found in a stereotypical college fraternity house. Providing a bird’s-eye view of life within the hallowed halls (and beneath the crimson robes), Incognito is a humorous and poignant glimpse inside one of the nation’s most revered institutions. From navigating relation­ships to exploring whether a pretty girl can truly wear a collar, Incognito tackles our assumptions about spirituality, the church, morality, and identity, and affirms that God often works in ways—and in people—we least expect.

The Sword and Shield by John W. Edwards III Pdf

In todays multicultural atmosphere, Christians struggle to hold steadfast to the Word of God. Doubt, sin, and false teachers beckon at every turn and do their best to derail our faith. Therefore, Christians need to don the armor of God and yield His sword. Rich in theological history and filled with hope, The Sword and Shield reveals how Christians must embrace Gods word and stand firm in the belief of His eternal promise. Using his extensive theological knowledge, John W. Edwards III shares his personal journey of faith and demonstrates how todays Christian crusaders must remain diligent against Satans relentless attacks. Edwards examines the lives of several biblical leaders, including Moses, Daniel, David, and Paul, to show how they anchored believers to Gods holy message. He then discusses ways in which Christians can wield the sword of truth by knowing Gods message, living within the character of Christ, and preparing to be tested each day. In this way, Christians can apply their knowledge and discern between Gods truth and Satans lies. We are not measured to man, but measured to Gods word. Find your truth within Gods word and prepare to draw your sword!

I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die by Sarah J. Robinson Pdf

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
