What if the path to a life of abundance and blessing isn't what we expected? What if the way forward begins with going backward? In our constant search for a life filled with blessing and abundance, we often follow our human instinct and then wonder why we come up short. But it doesn't have to be that way. Join pastor and author Alex Seeley as she teaches us that God always has a better idea -- we just have to move in a new direction. In?The Opposite Life, Seeley explains that the secret to living a powerful and abundant life lies in the upside-down kingdom of God. Each chapter of The Opposite Life explores the opposite-life principles that can start to shift our mindset for the better, diving deeper into the natural contradictions between: death and life fear and faith hate and love worry and worship impossible and possible Along the way, she offers encouraging and simple challenges to help us align our lives with God's subversive plan. As we learn to exchange our default instincts for the surprising teachings of Jesus -- our pioneer of the unlikely -- we discover a life of transformational power, abundance, and more blessing than we ever thought possible. Praise for The Opposite Life: "Our broken earth longs for just this type of unveiling. It is time for us to remember who we are and respond as sons and daughters of the Most High God. There is a desperate longing for His goodness in the face of overwhelming anger, pain, and confusion. The Opposite Life is a drink of living water in a dry and arid land." --Lisa Bevere, New York Times bestselling author of Without Rival and Girls with Swords

Are you struggling with finding your inner strength while others around you preach the importance of self-empowerment? You’ve read all the self-help books, you’ve worked really hard to do better and to live your best life, but somehow you keep failing? Whether it’s personal weakness in falling short or weakness in mourning a tragedy, we all struggle with weakness in our lives, but it is not up to us to find our own strength. When I Am Weak is a book about finding strength in Christ despite our weaknesses. It is designed to change our perspective from self-empowerment to God-empowerment, in which we no longer need to rely on ourselves for strength when Christ freely gives it. In this book, I will share parts of my story, my weaknesses, my hardships, and God’s strength through it all, in hopes that you will see how truly amazing our God is. I pray that through reading this book, you will discover the freedom that comes from complete surrender to Christ, the strength that comes from living through Christ, and the joy that comes from seeking him first. So when you look at your life, you can confidently say “when I am weak, he is strong!”

Two common temptations lure us away from abundant living: withdrawing into safety and grasping for power. However, with the characteristic insight, memorable stories, and hopeful realism he is known for, Andy Crouch argues that true flourishing comes when strength and weakness are combined in every human life and community.

For many, the Christian life looks like this: You call out to God. Your problems get worse. You suffer and wait. Nothing changes. Author John S. Dickerson knows the feeling. A rare health condition drove him to examine the Bible's claim that "when I am weak, then I am strong." As a journalist, Dickerson has seen severe human suffering.

In its chapters, I Am Strong equips you to: Unlock God’s strength for your difficulties. Understand how a loving God will resolve your pain. Know God's plan to repurpose your pain, injustice, and inadequacy. Understand why your suffering does not mean God is punishing you. Overcome life's circumstances as Christ and Paul did. Discover the life-changing power of God's strength in your weakness. I Am Strong breathes hope and comfort. Much more, it offers daily practices and lifelong vision on which to build an unshakeable life of meaning and peace.

The fourth book in the Stanoli saga plumbs deeply into the social, political, and religious behaviors of key figures in and around the family over multiple generations from the United States to the old country and back. The main present-day character can be summed up by how he endeavors to live his life, tackling his days by reassessing his own deeply held beliefs, getting out of his comfort zone, and trying things he typically wouldn’t try. He is similar to his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather as a soul-searching thinker, conserving the customs with which he was raised. As the saga unfolds, some personalities seem born evil; others lean toward virtue. Some are eternal optimists, finding happiness even in the dark. Some are risk takers, putting their reputations on the line. The Stanoli patriarch was fond of saying, “There is nothing greater than loving God and loving your neighbor,” but such wisdom is not always simple through the twists and turns of modern life.
