What the Bible Really Says about How to Hear God


Book Description

The Bible tells us that "faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" and "without faith, it is impossible to please God." We are also told that God speaks to us through His written word and spoken words. So how can we have faith if we can't hear the word of God? Hearing God's voice is not only reserved for those who are good, or holy, or special enough. It is a privilege that is available to anyone that truly follows Jesus Christ. It may not be easy, but it is possible for the most simple person to learn to do regardless of your intelligence, education, background, ancestry, or past sins. People often find the Bible difficult to read because it contains so much information about so many different and critically important subjects, that it is sometimes difficult to focus on one specific subject as you read through all the books of the Bible. This book extracts the scriptures, that the Bible gives, to help you hear the voice of God and gives simple practical advice so that you can avoid many mistakes that so many Christians have made, so that you can more easily live the abundantly blessed life that Jesus died for you to have. What the Bible Really Says about 'How to Hear God' is a book that simply and plainly explains what the Bible actually says about the subject and incorporates over twenty-five years of the author's life experience, and mistakes, that will help you to avoid making the same mistakes and to learn how to recognize, hear, and follow the voice of God in your everyday life.




What Patients Say, What Doctors Hear


Book Description

Can refocusing conversations between doctors and their patients lead to better health? Despite modern medicine’s infatuation with high-tech gadgetry, the single most powerful diagnostic tool is the doctor-patient conversation, which can uncover the lion’s share of illnesses. However, what patients say and what doctors hear are often two vastly different things. Patients, anxious to convey their symptoms, feel an urgency to “make their case” to their doctors. Doctors, under pressure to be efficient, multitask while patients speak and often miss the key elements. Add in stereotypes, unconscious bias, conflicting agendas, and fear of lawsuits and the risk of misdiagnosis and medical errors multiplies dangerously. Though the gulf between what patients say and what doctors hear is often wide, Dr. Danielle Ofri proves that it doesn’t have to be. Through the powerfully resonant human stories that Dr. Ofri’s writing is renowned for, she explores the high-stakes world of doctor-patient communication that we all must navigate. Reporting on the latest research studies and interviewing scholars, doctors, and patients, Dr. Ofri reveals how better communication can lead to better health for all of us.

I Heard The Savior Say


Book Description

No matter how saved we are or our level of faith, most of us fall short of God's Glory and at times struggle with life's trials and tribulations. Minister Bellamy learned at a tender age that the Christian journey does not exempt any of us from hardships in our life. Through a traumatic past, she learned how to lean and depend on God, how to sit and have life changing conversations with God that she once thought impossible. She struggled with the belief that God spoke to his people, but through her own encounter with God on top of the mountain at Agape Retreat Center, Minister Bellamy discovered that not only does God speak to his people, but he still speaks to us in miraculous ways, just as he spoke to Moses on Mount Horeb through the burning bush. In this book she reveals heart wrenching stories of her faith walk and compelling conversations with the Lord. Minister Bellamy's experiences will inspire, renew, strengthen and empower you to move beyond your circumstances to draw you nearer to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.




Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say


Book Description

In Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say, Dr. Warren Farrell demonstrates how gender-based anger at home, in the workplace, in omnipresent media images, and throughout the overall culture combines with men's own fear of speaking out to misrepresent the inner and outer reality of men's lives. Looking at the world from the perspectives of both men and women, Dr. Farrell provides a remarkable communication program to assist couples in moving beyond the current tripwire assumptions that lead to so much gender-based conflict, and to allow them to understand and love each other more fully than ever. His methods are the culmination of thirty years of experience with thousands of men and women in workshops, groups, and seminars. They prove that strategies that create love at home can also produce success and respect in the workplace.
