Book Description

Life is often not picture-perfect, and difficult times can make it hard to see a plan or purpose for our lives. In this inspiring story of one man's journey―from a rocky start as the son of a professional wrestler, to handling the fates of thousands as an air-traffic controller at one of the nation's busiest airports, to becoming a popular speaker―you will learn to see life from a different perspective. No matter what your circumstances, God can gather up the broken pieces and random elements of your life and form them into a beautiful mosaic―making you a useful vessel for His glory. Carl Kerby's story will not only give you reasons for hope in your own life, but will encourage you to share the only source of true hope with others. With humor and passion, Carl offers answers to questions about suffering, evolution, relativism, pluralism, and more, so you will be well-equipped to give reasons for hope to a broken world that desperately needs to hear it.Winner of the 2013 CSPA Book of the Year Award (Christian Living category), by the Christian Small Publisher Association.

Book Description

The meaning of history is about the purpose and goal of history. According to the Old Testament this involves redeeming humanity and transforming civilization toward an eternal hope of a world in which every longing is fulfilled and every fear is no more. When the Old Testament is understood on its terms, it reveals a marvelous vision of that hope. To capture this vision as well as present credible reason for the hope, this book interweaves into one coherent exposition five strands of Old Testament studies usually separated into different books: theology, ethics, mission, history, apologetics.

Book Description

"Shards of glass can cut and wound or magnify a vision," Terry Tempest Williams tells us. "Mosaic celebrates brokenness and the beauty of being brought together." Ranging from Ravenna, Italy, where she learns the ancient art of mosaic, to the American Southwest, where she observes prairie dogs on the brink of extinction, to a small village in Rwanda where she joins genocide survivors to build a memorial from the rubble of war, Williams searches for meaning and community in an era of physical and spiritual fragmentation. In her compassionate meditation on how nature and humans both collide and connect, Williams affirms a reverence for all life, and constructs a narrative of hopeful acts, taking that which is broken and creating something whole.

Book Description

A national bestselling self-help guide to the creative process from the founder of MOSAIC, an LA-based spiritual community “well-known for its creativity” (Publishers Weekly). In The Artisan Soul, Erwin Raphael McManus, author, thought leader, and founder of MOSAIC in Los Angeles, pens a manifesto for human creativity and the beginning of a new renaissance. McManus not only calls us to reclaim our creative essence but reveals how we can craft our lives into a work of art. There are no shortcuts to quality, and McManus celebrates the spiritual process that can help us discover our true selves. McManus demonstrates that we all carry within us the essence of an artist. We all need to create, to be a part of a process that brings to the world something beautiful, good, and true, in order to allow our souls to come to life. It's not only the quality of the ingredients we use to build our lives that matter, but the care we bring to the process itself. Just like baking artisan bread, it's a process that's crafted over time. And God has something to say about how we craft our lives. With poignant, inspirational stories and insights from art, life, history, and scripture interspersed throughout, McManus walks readers through the process of crafting a life of beauty and wonder.

Leaving behind everything but her research gear, she arrives in Greenland with a singular purpose: to follow the last Arctic terns in the world on what might be their final migration to Antarctica. Franny talks her way onto a fishing boat, and she and the crew set sail, traveling ever further from shore and safety. But as Franny’s history begins to unspool—a passionate love affair, an absent family, a devastating crime—it becomes clear that she is chasing more than just the birds. When Franny's dark secrets catch up with her, how much is she willing to risk for one more chance at redemption? Epic and intimate, heartbreaking and galvanizing, Charlotte McConaghy's Migrations is an ode to a disappearing world and a breathtaking page-turner about the possibility of hope against all odds.

Book Description

For many years, the secular world has treated the word “faith” as a jargon that cannot be proven by anything tangible. People who still believe in God are considered unreasonable and lack understanding of the “real” world. Sadly, some Christians who join churches rely on “blind faith” with no or very minimal ability to defend their beliefs when they get cross-examined by a non-believer. In Reason of the Hope, author Ronie F. Magcamit focuses on ten major faith-related topics or issues asked by young Christians and secular people. He discusses the reliability of scriptures, creation versus evolution, end-time events, reformation, ten commandments, apologetics, life and miracles of Jesus, teachings in parables, the resurrection of Christ, and the second coming of Jesus. Ronie presents some of the usual objections to Christianity and provides practical responses for a new generation of Christians. Reason of the Hope encourages you to build your faith in Christ and enables you to help others build their faith as well.
