Once He Was Lost... Now I'm Found...


Book Description

Throughout my lifelong experiences in church, I have been taught that there were only two final destinations: heaven and hell. Preachers teach that there is a heaven to gain and a hell to shun, which is absolutely true. I have further learned through my ability that it too is possible for spirits to remain earthbound. This occurs when these spirits reject themselves from walking into the light due to inability of letting go of their physical life. The two types of spirits that are earthbound are intelligent and residual. The intelligent spirits can communicate with the physical world, and residual spirits are on repeat every day. With the help of my youngest brother’s God-given abilities, I slowly learned how to embrace the gift that I have been given. I encourage anyone who senses these abilities to embrace it and pursue it, although it may be difficult to understand this gift. There are many people in the world experiencing similar situations. I gradually learned how to live with my ability, which led me to a solid four years of writing this book so that others will find the courage to express their gifts in their own special form.




Radical


Book Description

New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Jesus + Nothing = Everything


Book Description

It's so easy to forget what the Christian faith is all about. We struggle so much, work so hard, and fail so often that we frequently sense something in the equation of life must be missing.Tullian Tchividjian argues that what we are missing is the gospel-a fuller, more powerful understanding of what the finished work of Jesus means for everyday life.During a year of great turmoil, Pastor Tchividjian discovered the power of the gospel in his own life. Sharing his story of how Jesus became more real to him, Tchividjian delves deeply into the fundamentals of the faith, explaining the implications of Christ's sufficiency, a revelation that sets us free and keeps us anchored through life's storms.Ultimately, Tchividjian reminds us that Jesus is the whole of the equation as he boldly proclaims that Jesus plus nothing really is everything.




A Scandalous Freedom


Book Description

A reader’s delight, A Scandalous Freedom sometimes shocks with challenges to prevailing wisdom, but it follows up with compelling validations of our need to celebrate real, unstinted freedom in Christ. Christians do not trust freedom. As author Steve Brown explains in this brave new book, they prefer the security of rules and self-imposed boundaries, which they tend to inflict on other Christians. Brown asserts that real freedom means the freedom to be wrong as well as right. Christianity often calls us to live beyond the boundaries, bolstered by the assurance that we cannot fall beyond God’s love. Freedom is dangerous, but the alternative is worse—boxing ourselves up where we cannot celebrate our unique gifts and express our joy in Christ. Each of the book’s eleven chapters explores a common pharisaic, freedom-stifling tendency, then opens the door to the fresh air of a remedial liberty.
