The True Foundation of Life


Book Description

All over the world, a common question being asked by all is, Does God really love me? People often feel rejected and are terrified of God. There is bitterness in their hearts toward God, and so they avoid coming to Him. Yet the real reason is we are not truly aware of His love. Often we try to measure Gods love with the standards of human love. We ask questions such as, If God loves me, then why I am hurting? Why have I lost my job? Why is my marriage breaking? Why I am suffering with deadly sickness? Why is this happening to me? Why holocaust, sudden death, loss due to natural calamities, 9/11, and shootings in schools? Then we always try to see where God is in that situation, and we feel that if God loves me, why did I get hurt? Does God still love me when I sin? People all over the world are too guilty of what they have done or are still doing. This guilt leads them to stay away from God, since they think God is not going to accept them because of what they have done. This book is a fresh new revelation of God to answer the questions of your life.

Firm Foundation


Book Description

When I first came to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ I did not know where to start in the word of God; so, I began seeking the Lord for direction on what to study and how to study. Some of the things He showed me were salvation, redemption, faith, covenant, Holy Spirit and Jesus the Christ. After years of studying the Word of God and applying its life changing principles to the circumstances that came to me in life, I have learned what it means to walk by faith and not by sight. Now today I know that the Word of God is true and that it works. The Word of God has the ability to change life situations by living, acting, doing the Word. No matter where you are in life the Word of the Lord can change your circumstances. I pray that by reading this book, it will serve as a guide to lead you on a journey to success and prosperity in the things of God. This is just to get you exposed to some of the basic teachings of Christianity, I believe you will receive direction in your walk with the Lord. I encourage you to study faith, Jesus, redemption, salvation, covenant, and Holy Spirit. Take each chapter and study diligently. Look up the scripture given at the bottom of the page and apply what you read to your life. By doing the Word, you will be building on a firm foundation for success in every area of life.

A Sure Foundation


Book Description

God's Word must be the foundation of everything we as Christians believe. When it's not--when we walk by sight--the foundation of our faith cracks. It becomes unstable. But when we learn to walk by faith, we can stand firm upon the only sure foundation. In A Sure Foundation, Andrew shows how God's Word is the incorruptible seed of His kingdom, intended to combat unbelief and produce a life of stability and fruitfulness. Learn about the integrity of God's Word and how to rely on it as the foundation for everything you do, in life and in ministry. Get established in your faith and gain momentum in your calling.

What Is God Like?


Book Description

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The late, beloved Rachel Held Evans answers many children's first question about God in this gorgeous picture book, fully realized by her friend Matthew Paul Turner, the bestselling author of When God Made You. Children who are introduced to God, through attending church or having loved ones who speak about God, often have a lot of questions, including this ever-popular one: What is God like? The late Rachel Held Evans loved the Bible and loved showing God’s love through the words and pictures found in that ancient text. Through these pictures from the Bible, children see that God is like a shepherd, God is like a star, God is like a gardener, God is like the wind, and more. God is a comforter and support. And whenever a child is unsure, What Is God Like? encourages young hearts to “think about what makes you feel safe, what makes you feel loved, and what makes you feel brave. That's what God is like.”
