Don't Lose Heart


Book Description

A fallen world is full of reasons to lose heart. From the large-scale tragedies of war, famine, and natural disasters, to the more personal tragedies of broken relationships and broken dreams, it can be difficult to avoid discouragement--even for the believer. And yet, Scripture calls us to a life of hope, based not on wishful thinking or avoiding our problems but based on who God is, what he has done, and what he is still doing. In this short, giftable book, pastor Jason Meyer shows you that though the reasons for discouragement seem strong, the reasons we have to take heart and hold on to hope are stronger yet. Through biblical truth and personal stories, Meyer encourages the weary and anxious believer by shining light on the nature of reality, the nature of God, and the intersection of the two in our daily, rubber-meets-the-road lives. The result is a book that lifts our spirits in a world that too often seeks to drag us down.

So We Do Not Lose Heart


Book Description




Future Grace, Revised Edition


Book Description

Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.

Do Not Lose Heart


Book Description

In an era marked by distress, division, hyperindividualism, narcissism, and church decline, how is it that our collective levels of human empathy keep decreasing? We've become so overloaded with fear and anxiety that we choose to feel numb rather than feel at all. Whether it be by deliberate choice or divergent coping mechanisms, our generation has comfortably molded toward choosing apathy over feeling. Not only have we found a way to not care, but we've found a way to not care that we don't care. In a faith that requires all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, how do we cope with a generation that doesn't care that they don't care? Do Not Lose Heart dives into the process of becoming more like Jesus in a new generation, setting aside this culture of flakiness and instant-gratification, while seeking to build up compassionate, empathetic hearts that counteract the chaos of the present age. Now, more than ever, followers of Jesus need to construct a deeply-layered faith that tunnels inwardly so far that it extends outside of ourselves to magnify the love of Jesus in the world around us.




When God Says "No"


Book Description

No is not a four-letter word, but it certainly feels like one. It’s one thing to feel God’s love when life goes your way, but what happens to your faith when life doesn’t go as you had planned? When prayers go unanswered and dreams unfulfilled? When the sick stay sick and the dead do not rise? When you’re lost in the desert and the Promised Land seems like empty promise? When God says, “No,” how do you grapple with disappointment? Author Elizabeth Laing Thompson walks alongside readers as she tackles the difficulties that stymie our faith, stifle our prayers, and stunt our relationship with God. When God Says, “No” will help you to discover hope when life feels hopeless, good in what feels bad, and new dreams when old ones have died. This book is a fantastic reminder of Who is in charge—Who He is and how He works. How He loves us and why He limits us. The better we know Him, the more we understand that He says “No” to a few things, so He might say “Yes” to many more.
