Life as We Would Want It . . . Life as We Are Given It


Book Description

The terrain of Colorado forms a metaphor for life as acclaimed writer Ken Gire reflects upon the smooth, even terrain of eastern Colorado in contrast to the wild, uncertain, jagged terrain of western Colorado. The majestic, awe-inspiring mountains of western Colorado were born out of the most terrifying eruptions. And that is the unrelenting work of heaven, to make everything beautiful in its time. All of us would like life to be smooth with no upheavals. But the fact is that our lives are anything but. Our lives are full of upheaval, for that is life as we are given it. Gire looks at the beauty that is the result of these upheavals.

Reliving the Passion


Book Description

These imaginary reenactments follow the story of the death and resurrection of Jesus from the time the chief priests plotted to kill Him to His glorious resurrection from the dead, allowing readers to re-experience the Passion--or perhaps see it fully for the first time.




Reflections on the Word


Book Description

If you really want to hear what God is saying to you, first you have to slow down. That is what Reflections on the Word by acclaimed writer Ken Gire is designed to help you do. To create pauses for reflection, like park benches that allow you to stop and sit and reflect on your spiritual journey. To check the map. And your bearings. And to make any adjustments in your course. Each reflection begins with a Scripture reading. It's followed by a meditation that offers insight into the passage, written either by Ken Gire or other spiritual guides from around the world and across the centuries, including Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Catherine Marshall, Oswald Chambers, and Edith Schaeffer. The closing prayer is intended only to start you praying, in hopes that the Holy Spirit will bring other things to mind-other vistas He would have you see, other paths He would have you take, other precipices He would have you avoid. This is a companion book to two others in this new series by Ken Gire that emphasize the centuries-old tradition of reflective living-The Reflective Life, a spiritual primer, and Reflections on Your Life, a journal.

Lessons from the Upper Room


Book Description

What would you give to spend an evening with Jesus, hearing Him teach and listening to Him pray? This is what we encounter in the Farewell Discourse of John 13-17. As the shadow of the cross loomed, Christ shared His final hours with the disciples to prepare them for His death, quiet their troubled hearts, and intercede on their behalf before the Father. In Lessons from the Upper Room, Dr. Sinclair Ferguson draws us into these intimate hours from the night when Jesus was betrayed. This vivid picture of Christ's ministry, from His washing the disciples' feet to His High Priestly Prayer, shows us the heart of Jesus. Discover His deepest desires for His people and take delight in the suffering Savior who has overcome the world.
