Grace Is Greater


Book Description

The writer of the letter to the Hebrews said, "See to it that no one misses the grace of God." Over the centuries much ink has been spilled on the subject of grace. Yet perhaps nothing is as hard to explain as God's grace. It doesn't make sense. It's not fair. It can't possibly cover over what I've done. The best way--perhaps the only real way--to understand it is to experience it. But too often in our churches we're not getting grace across and grace is not experienced. Bestselling author and pastor Kyle Idleman wants everyone to experience the grace of God. Through the powerful medium of story, Grace Is Greater leads readers past their hang-ups toward an understanding of grace that is bigger than our mistakes, our failures, our desire for revenge, and our seemingly impossible situations. No sin is so great, no bitterness so deep that God's grace cannot transform the heart and rewrite the story. Perfect for individuals and also for small groups and church-wide studies, Grace Is Greater will help readers truly grasp God's grace, even if the Christians around them have failed to live it.




Iris Trophy of Grace


Book Description

As hard as Iris Urrey Blue tried, she could not hide from Him. Pursuing her every step of the way, in and out of prison, in the middle of heroin highs and robberies, was her Creator, who in eternity past had devised a plan that would turn this "incorrigible rebel" into one of His trophies of grace.

You won't be dissapointed.




Trophies of God's Grace


Book Description

Webster's New World Dictionary defines trophy as "a token of an enemy's defeat; something taken from the enemy and kept as a memorial of victory." This best describes a life that Jesus has snatched from the enemy of our souls, and now displays as a prized possession—a trophy! In this forty-day devotional we will peak into the private world of a few prized possessions who have crossed my path and significantly impacted my life, as well as the lives of countless others. The first names of these Christian women are arranged alphabetically followed by the meanings of their names, and Scriptures which reflect their character. Each of the forty devotionals consists of a brief sharing from their individual spiritual journey—emphasizing the reality of God's personal presence, provision, and overcoming power evident in everyday lives.




The Trophies of Grace


Book Description

Lionel Etwaru became very involved in ministry with Apostle Harry Das and had the opportunity to see the power of the gospel transforming the lives of men and women. In this biography, we see how many lives have been changed and kept by the power of God. Many, in turn, became a part of the mission to share the Gospel in unreached villages, where churches have been planted. This dynamic presentation of the Gospel was expanded when Apostle Philip Mohabir came together with Apostle Harry Das in 1964 and founded the Full Gospel Fellowship. As the team expanded, so the number of churches increased. Today, there are more than 120 churches and scores of missionaries who have been trained in the Bible Training Center. This move did not only affect Guyana but at least thirty other nations around the world. Lionel now lives with his wife, Margaret, in Long Island, New York and pastors a church in Queens. He continues to travel to many other countries for ministry.

What Good Is God?


Book Description

Journalist and spiritual seeker Philip Yancey has always struggled with the most basic questions of the Christian faith. The question he tackles in What Good Is God? concerns the practical value of belief in God. His search for the answer to this question took him to some amazing settings around the world: Mumbai, India when the firing started during the terrorist attacks; at the motel where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated; on the Virginia Tech campus soon after the massacre; an AA convention; and even to a conference for women in prostitution. At each of the ten places he visited, his preparation for the visit and exactly what he said to the people he met each provided evidence that faith really does work when what we believe is severely tested. What Good Is God? tells the story of Philip's journey -- the background, the preparation, the presentations themselves. Here is a story of grace for armchair travelers, spiritual seekers, and those in desperate need of assurance that their faith really matters.
