Book Description
Blessed Beyond Belief is the account of God's faithfulness in the life of Pastor Stu Silvester for 85 years, beginning in Saskatchewan and continuing in Ontario. It's the story of a farm boy who loved sports, and cars, but who finally obeyed God's call and at age 28 with two daughters went to Seminary. His lovely wife Bev was a teacher/librarian who put Stu through seminary, and the Lord allowed them to serve Him for over 55 years until He called her to her reward in 2018. This book reveals how God takes the weak to accomplish His work when we're willing to obey Him. It tells of God's provision for every need and His protection from injury and death on several occasions. Stu saw the results of prayer, hard work and faith, in God and His Word at work in people's lives as the Baptist church that Stu pastored in Bramalea, Ontario, grew from 60 to 1500 in 20 years. Stu also had the privilege of giving leadership to 500 Evangelical Baptist churches in Canada in evangelism and church growth. God led Stu to start Baptist Builders which resulted in over 20 churches being built by volunteers across Canada. May this story draw you closer to the Lord and His Word in these dark and dangerous days!

Book Description
Josh Hamilton was the first player chosen in the first round of the 1999 baseball draft. He was destined to be one of those rare "high-character " superstars. But in 2001, working his way from the minors to the majors, all of the plans for Josh went off the rails in a moment of weakness. What followed was a 4-year nightmare of drugs and alcohol, estrangement from friends and family, and his eventual suspension from baseball. BEYOND BELIEF details the events that led up to the derailment. Josh explains how a young man destined for fame and wealth could allow his life to be taken over by drugs and alcohol. But it is also the memoir of a spiritual journey that breaks through pain and heartbreak and leads to the rebirth of his major-league career. Josh Hamilton makes no excuses and places no blame on anyone other than himself. He takes responsibility for his poor decisions and believes his story can help millions who battle the same demons. "I have been given a platform to tell my story" he says. "I pray every night I am a good messenger."

Foolish No More!
Author: Ted Haggard
Publisher: WaterBrook
ISBN: 0307551202
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
How a 2,000-year-old letter can revolutionize your life. The Apostle Paul was a wise saint who often revealed a crusty attitude–especially when the truth of the gospel was under attack. So when he penned his letter to his “dear children” in the faith–the Galatians–his frustration over their warped thinking had him about to blow his top. Though he tried to restrain himself, he couldn’t help but call them “foolish”! Paul simply could not understand how any follower of Christ, adopted by faith into the most free and exciting life possible, could want to go back to the old way of bondage to rules and regulations. You’d think by now, two thousand years later, things would have changed. But even today Christians just can’t seem to “get” the revolutionary message of spiritual freedom and power advocated in the book of Galatians. In Foolish No More! Ted Haggard, senior pastor of New Life Church in Colorado Springs and president of the National Association of Evangelicals, retraces Paul’s arguments to make the clear case for breathtaking freedom in Christ. So wise up! Discover how to put off the old ways and walk in the Spirit, enjoy freedom in Christ, and wield the power of God on behalf of His Kingdom.

Blessed Endurance
Author: John R. Wimmer
Publisher: Upper Room Books
ISBN: 0835817792
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Where is God when we are hurting or in despair? How can we find hope even when we feel hopeless? Pain, struggle, and despair are part of life, and they test our character as God's people. John Wimmer approaches these challenges to our faith realistically and thoughtfully. He does not offer easy answers or platitudes like "Everything happens for a reason." We can't always understand or control many things that happen to us, but we can choose how we respond to our circumstances. Wimmer encourages us to view times of difficulty as opportunities for spiritual and personal growth. Rather than diminishing our faith, pain and despair can lead us to greater trust in God. To endure through such times is a blessing. This inspiring book offers practical help for moving from pain and despair to hope. Wimmer reminds us that with hope we also have faith—not the false belief that our lives will be pain-free but the assurance that God will be with us through our most challenging times and lead us to deeper levels of spiritual growth and wisdom.
