Tetelestai - It Is Finished


Book Description

And the cunning serpent said, You will not surely die, deceiving mankind into a world filled with misery, sorrow, wickedness, ignorance, death, and destruction. We are at a point of self-destruction, with sickness and disease that are incurable. The only presumed hope mankind has is a miracle drug or genetic engineering. But God loved us, his creation, so much that he sacrificed his one and only Son to redeem us from this darkness. He gave us back the light of life, and whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. Jesus is the light, and by his death on the cross, he redeemed us body, soul, and spirit. A life filled with love, peace, joy, happiness, and prosperity separating us from misery, sorrow, suffering, sickness, disease, and poverty. Why is the reset button not working? What went wrong? Why are Christians saved on the cross still living in darkness? We have to break free; the Devil is denying us of our victory. Jesus taught us that if we follow him, we will never walk in darkness but receive the light of life. This book will reveal the teachings of Jesus, our Savior and healer, and with the power of this knowledge, you will be able to shatter the strongholds of the crafty Satan.

Clout


Book Description

You have clout. Have you discovered it yet? It is easy to believe that power, influence, and leadership are gifts given to a special few. But the Bible says otherwise. We all long for significance, even as we fear we will never be good enough. We listen for God, but hear only voices of doubt and practicality. Listen again. There is a call that only you can answer. Clout is power and influence. It is an undeniable trait that opens doors and moves mountains. You have it, and you can use it to change the world around you. With Scripture and stories from her own life, Jenni Catron maps out the pitfalls and clear paths on the way toward discovering and unleashing your very own clout. This is not a quest of power for power’s sake. Influence is not a guarantee of fame or fortune. It is an opportunity to use your gifts to do the extraordinary. This is a journey toward dismantling what stands in the way of your influence and leadership, discovering your God-given clout, and using it to answer God’s calling on your life. Learn about Jesus and others who sought to lead like him. Stop dreaming and start planning. Define your direction, set your goals, and confront the challenges that stand between you and the person God made you to be. Step into your sphere of influence with the humble confidence of Christ. Don’t hide. We need you. Discover your clout here.
