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.

Living a Victorious Life is a two-in-one daily devotional designed to help both the believer and Bible readers to faithfully and persistently accomplish the task of both reading and studying the Bible within a one- or two-year span and, even better, to accomplish the task of both studying and reading the Bible three times within a two-year span. It also includes guidelines to jot and record daily prayer points for record purposes and answers to prayer when God has answered such prayer. IaEUR(tm)ve learned over the years that perseverance in life comes with faithfully committing to the course, persistently driven by the course with a devoted passion for such a course.The Bible is a mineraEUR(tm)s mine, a treasure island. It is not the Word of God, but rather the Bible contains GodaEUR(tm)s Word. GodaEUR(tm)s Word is not pen and paper but an inspiration of the Holy Spirit, which comes alive when one envelops the Bible. God communes, and man communicates, living a victorious life, a daily devotional helps you commune with God and stop communicating to God. It specifies daily chapters, extraction of Bible verses for prayer, prayer times, special prayer, waiting to hear from the Lord, and recording the spoken word by way of dreams. This devotional will help your faith in the letters of the Word to pray and to have faith in the voice of God to do his will. Jesus said, aEURoeMy meat is to do His will,aEUR aEURoeMy sheep hear my voice.aEUR If you faithfully and persistently commit to it, at the end of two years, you would have developed a Bible exposA(c) of Jesus, which is the epicenter of the entire Bible. I pray for God to open your understanding to comprehend His scriptures in JesusaEUR(tm)s name. Amen.

Renewal Theology deals with the full range of Christian truth from within the charismatic tradition. Previously published as three separate volumes, Renewal Theology represents the first exhaustive, balanced articulation of charismatic theology. Renewal Theology discusses: Book One--God, the World, and Redemption - Book Two--Salvation, the Holy Spirit, and Christian Living - Book Three--The Church, the Kingdom, and Last Things. As theology, this work is an intellectual achievement. But it is much more than that. The author urges the church to undertake its task of theology in the proper spirit: - an attitude of prayer - a deepening sense of reverence - an ever-increasing purity of heart - a spirit of growing love - a theological approach rooted in the glory of God. Done in such a spirit, theology becomes a faithful and powerful witness to the living God.

Although the arrival of the Bible in Africa has often been a tale of terror, the Bible has become an African book. This volume explores the many ways in which Africans have made the Bible their own. The essays in this book offer a glimpse of the rich resources that constitute Africa's engagement with the Bible. Among the topics are: the historical development of biblical interpretation in Africa, the relationship between African biblical scholarship and scholarship in the West, African resources for reading the Bible, the history and role of vernacular translation in particular African contexts, the ambiguity of the Bible in Africa, the power of the Bible as text and symbol, and the intersections between class, race, gender, and culture in African biblical interpretation. The book also contains an extensive bibliography of African biblical scholarship. In fact, it is one of the most comprehensive collections of African biblical scholarship available in print.
