Book Description
With a foreword by Eric Metaxas, best-selling author of Bonhoeffer and Amazing Grace. The enthralling biography of the woman writer who helped end the slave trade, changed Britain’s upper classes, and taught a nation how to read. The history-changing reforms of Hannah More affected every level of 18th-Century British society through her keen intellect, literary achievements, collaborative spirit, strong Christian principles, and colorful personality. A woman without connections or status, More took the world of British letters by storm when she arrived in London from Bristol, becoming a best-selling author and acclaimed playwright and quickly befriending the author Samuel Johnson, the politician Horace Walpole, and the actor David Garrick. Yet she was also a leader in the Evangelical movement, using her cultural position and her pen to support the growth of education for the poor, the reform of morals and manners, and the abolition of Britain’s slave trade. Fierce Convictions weaves together world and personal history into a stirring story of life that intersected with Wesley and Whitefield’s Great Awakening, the rise and influence of Evangelicalism, and convulsive effects of the French Revolution. A woman of exceptional intellectual gifts and literary talent, Hannah More was above all a person whose faith compelled her both to engage her culture and to transform it.

Book Description
Infertility can be bring discouragement, heartache, and hopelessness in the life of even the most faithful Christian woman as well as her family. But there is good news! Spend time in this book, in the Word of God, and learn how to battle infertility with spiritual weapons. Be encouraged by testimonies from the countless women who have received breakthrough in many ways because of God's special grace for fruitfulness upon the author, Prophetess Nonnie Roberson. A Testimony: "NONE SHALL BE BARREN is not just a book; it is an AMMUNITION against any and every yoke of barrenness/Infertility. The Lord told me that the same UNUSUAL GRACE for fruitfulness that rests on my life, rests on this book by contact. He assured me that jaw-dropping testimonies will abound. I was married for 12 years with no child but on one faithful service, Prophetess Nonnie called me out and prayed for me and the next month, I was sick and when I went to the hospital, I was told that I was pregnant. I laughed at them and asked 'if it is that easy?' because I have had series of tests that failed. To God be the glory, I am holding my child today." - Mrs. A. J. A Word from the Author: Over the years, there has been strong evidence attesting to the UNUSUAL GRACE I carry for FRUITFULNESS; an unusual anointing that crushes the yoke of BARRENNESS. It is a grace that I can't explain even to myself. People run to the altar when I make an altar call for the "Fruit of the Womb" to receive their blessing while others literally run out of the building as they have seen the miraculous results that have happened to those who come to the altar on behalf of their loved ones. Several women, including menopause grandmothers, have taken in just by coming out to stand in the gap for their loved ones believing God for the fruit of the womb. In the first "FRUIT OF THE WOMB" program God led me to hold for women desiring the fruit of the womb, we recorded a 100% FRUITFULNESS within 3 months! Every woman who attended that program took in including those who came to stand in for their friends or relatives. From young women who were newly-weds, to the aged women of over 57 years of age. By the special grace of God, and with all humility, I have seen multitudes of women with critical and hopeless cases receive amazing miracles in this area after a brief spiritual encounter. The testimonies of God's goodness to the women I have ministered to in the area of child-bearing are mind-blowing. Hence, anointing for breaking the yokes of bareness have become my trade-mark. This is my deal with Jehovah, the God of possibilities. This book carries a unique message to the family, especially the family that is praying, seeking and knocking for the gift of children. It carries the message of hope to the hopeless, succor to the hurting, and fulfillment of expectations for the hurting spouses. It is a message of the reaffirmation that it is God's intention to give you that desired children, and the time of your visitation has come. It does not matter how long the devil has fought against your childbearing, the Lord has sent me with a special message to you conveyed through the pages of this book. The message is that "now is your time of visitation!"

Book Description
Since the history of the entire universe, statistics have proven that the problem of infertility has risen over the last two decades. We have many more couples with inabilities to have biological children of their own, with cases of miscarriages, fibroid, tumors, and complications in delivery. So the question has been what changed? The answer lies in the newly released book titled ‘The Blessing of Sarah’. An expository book on what the fertility God has to say about empowerment for conception, full-time gestation period and safe delivery. The author goes beyond unravelling the simplistic notion about these problems confronting women and brings to light God’s clever ways of addressing them, such that, if women can understand them, they could conceive their own biological children notwithstanding the limitations. It has got practical and powerful answers to many questions confronting women’s conception, providing readers with scriptural analogies on how to handle the cases of barrenness, miscarriages, fibroid tumors in women and complications in delivery, including Bible-based prayers for reversing all that was not so from the beginning with the woman. With recent incidences of fibroid operation claiming many women’s lives, the book reveals a better way of handling it, showing how the fertility God rids out fibroid without Him applying a pin on women’s flesh just to ensure they conceive and bear kids. It analyses how the working of the blessing organises the process of conception through to having a full-time gestation period unto safe delivery, providing significant insights to what can be done to successfully complete the process irrespective of standing limitations. The author concluded by making a compelling case for treating the belief of living and dying childless by sharing series of testimonies from couples who had challenges conceiving but now have their own biological kids through the working of the blessing of the womb upon their lives. It is a must-read for all expecting couples, potential couples, and women who desire to bear kids in their lifetime and without much trouble too.

Book Description
A more complete picture of how procreation and childlessness are depicted in the Bible In the Book of Genesis, the first words God speaks to humanity are "Be fruitful and multiply." From ancient times to today, these words have been understood as a divine command to procreate. Fertility is viewed as a sign of blessedness and moral uprightness, while infertility is associated with sin and moral failing. Reconceiving Infertility explores traditional interpretations such as these, providing a more complete picture of how procreation and childlessness are depicted in the Bible. Closely examining texts and themes from both the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament, Candida Moss and Joel Baden offer vital new perspectives on infertility and the social experiences of the infertile in the biblical tradition. They begin with perhaps the most famous stories of infertility in the Bible—those of the matriarchs Sarah, Rebekah, and Rachel—and show how the divine injunction in Genesis is both a blessing and a curse. Moss and Baden go on to discuss the metaphorical treatments of Israel as a "barren mother," the conception of Jesus, Paul's writings on family and reproduction, and more. They reveal how biblical views on procreation and infertility, and the ancient contexts from which they emerged, were more diverse than we think. Reconceiving Infertility demonstrates that the Bible speaks in many voices about infertility, and lays a biblical foundation for a more supportive religious environment for those suffering from infertility today.

Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
