Book Description

Meet 'the Bookless bunch', a very ordinary family who went green. When God challenged him over his attitude to the environment, Dave Bookless did a total rethink. This led to major changes, not only in his family's lifestyle but also eventually in his career: full-time involvement in the global A Rocha movement that aims to care for God's fragile world. But in one sense this book isn't about going green at all. It's a personal account of a life lived in relationship. It's about roots and belonging, suffering and healing, identity and meaning, faith and doubt. It's about how in God's economy nothing need be wasted. This is a story about the messiness that each human being wades through in every area of their lives, and about a God who can take all that seems most wasteful and useless, and recycle it into something of infinite worth.

Book Description

A choice lies before you: Either waste your life or live with risk. Either sit on the sidelines or get in the game. After all, life was no cakewalk for Jesus, and he didn't promise it would be any easier for his followers. We shouldn't be surprised by resistance and persecution. Yet most of us play it safe. We pursue comfort. We spend ourselves to get more stuff. And we prefer to be entertained. We are all tempted by the idea of security, the possibility of a cozy Christianity with no hell at the end. But what kind of life is that really? It's a far cry from adventurous and abundant, from truly rich and really full, and it's certainly not the heights and the depths Jesus calls us to. Discover in these pages a foundation for fearlessness. Hear God's promise to go with you into the unknown. And let Risk Is Right help you see the joys of a faith-filled and seriously rewarding life of Jesus-dependent abandon! Risk Is Right is a significantly expanded version of a chapter previously published in the book Don't Waste Your Life (chapter 5).

Book Description

God Doesn’t Waste A Hurt – A Life of Abuse to A Story of Redemption is one women’s journey from being abused to embracing her redemption in Christ. In this Autobiography, Gyasmin E. Matos, (GEM), takes you into her world on living a life of abuse. You will learn valuable lessons about the set-backs made by her poor life choices and that there are different types of abuses that came in the form of: 1. Physical 2. Sexual 3. Spiritual 4. Financial 5. Verbal 6. Emotional 7. Mental Gyasmin gives you a glimpse of the process of healing from her past soul wounds to the breakthroughs she experienced supernaturally. You will be inspired by how she won the battle of seeing herself as, “damaged goods,” into being the Daughter of the Most High God and the Bride of King Jesus. God delicately intertwined Gyasmin’s broken life into creating a beautiful tapestry that reflects His heart for her and women everywhere. Lovingly, He took her into the very recesses of her pain to expose the darkness of her past, which she had suppressed for so long. All her suffering has created Gyasmin to be who she is today – a Writer, published Author, and Christian Certified Life Coach, (CCLC). Through her writings, you are invited to come along on her journey in seeing how her latter years have become better than her former ones, (James 5:11). Your hearts will be ignited with the hope needed to get you to the other side of what you may be facing in your own life. Despite one’s traumas, Gyasmin’s memoir is a great reminder that God Never Wastes A Hurt, (GDWAH), and there is always hope in Him.

Book Description

How should Christians react to environmental crisis? Historically, evangelicals have ignored this aspect of living for Christ, so this book aims to reinvigorate and empower Christians across the globe to care for creation. This book collects the work of biblical scholars, theologians, biologists, environmental researchers, and community organizers who met at "The Global Consultation on Creation Care and the Gospel" in Jamaica in 2012. Participants from 23 countries as diverse as Argentina, Bangladesh, Benin, and Canada gathered for five days to pray, talk, and reflect on the state of the planet--the home in which we live--and on the role and ministry of the church in caring for God's creation. The book contains biblical and theological affirmations from well-respected scholars and teachers, reminding us that caring for creation is central to the evangelical faith. It is an integral part of our mission, an expression of our worship of God, and a matter of great joy and hope.

Book Description

This book is an inspiration to many who may have lost their way. Are you searching for absolute, truth for a foundation to live your life? Sometimes it takes a tragedy, or a personal lose, a changing event that brings you to your knees. Are you searching for someone far greater than yourself? Search no longer come back to the one who can save you from sin and walk in the way of the Lord. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6. The uncertainties I face at this time deepened my increasing closeness with God. The Bible Verses that kept catching my attention, now comforts me, “For ye shall go out in joy and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12; “Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” Psalm 119:105. And in the same way, let your light shine before men, that they can see your good works and give glory to your Father in Heaven. Matthew 5:16. There is a tugging at my heart to write this book. As my journey comes closer to God in Heaven I lean on Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit within me.
