Book Description
Have you ever faced a situation that was so overwhelming or so confusing you didn't even know how to pray about it? Have you ever been so overcome with grief or burdened by heartache you couldn't put your emotions into words---much less pray about them? (Billy Graham: Hope for Each Day) What a comfort these words should be: "The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us... in accordance with God's will." (Romans 8:26-27, NIV) "Turn to God in every situation---even when you don't feel like it. The Spirit is interceding for you, in accordance with God's will." (Billy Graham: Hope for Each Day) The Lord put it on my heart many years ago, to write a book about my Salvation experience. I never would have believed that Jesus would appear to me, "in the flesh", but He did. Nor would I have believed that I would have been blessed enough, to have such long conversation with Him, but I did. In his book, Hope for Each Day, Billy Graham states, "Although many of us fear the unknown, Jesus Christ can bring peace to those who trust in Him. When we give control to the Lord, He protects us. That is why Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to live in us, to lift us up, as we continue to live out our lives. I pray this book will be a blessing, to everyone that reads it. May our Lord be your encourager and Savior." 75 1

Book Description
God is the center of my life-all throughout my life from my beginning until he takes me home one day. He truly walked each step with me and guided my path. Sometimes, it was real rough, but he never left me. For that, I am truly thankful, and I owe everything to Jesus Christ my Savior.

Book Description
This book focuses upon the individual and his or her relationship and walk with God in their daily lives. The book is based upon my own personal life and walk with God outlined in a packet I put together for myself and to share with others. The principles and practices outlined within reflect the truth and knowledge that God assimilated into my own daily life behind these prison walls. They most assuredly can be (and should be) assimilated into your lives out there in the real world. This book is a practical theological guide to enable you, the reader, to learn, develop, and apply fundamental spiritual and physical disciplines in the Christian faith to your own personal lives. I hope and pray that you will apply these truths continuously through repetition to develop long lasting patterns that will influence and effect every area of your lives. There is no age limit to beginning this personal walk, and no end to the glory, understanding, and benefits you will experience from simply applying these truths on a daily basis. Thank you, and God bless you. Amen.

Book Description
The question of the existence of God looms large in humanity's search for meaning. We all confront this question throughout the course of our lives, whether our response is one of belief or unbelief. In a simple, yet detailed discussion of this fundamental question, Watchman Nee presents a compelling case for belief in God by showing that God became a man to personally answer this question for us. Arranged in four major sections, The Normal Christian Faith presents a clear view of our faith beginning with the knowledge of God, Christ, and the Bible and progressing to an understanding of redemption, life and the Spirit.

Having true faith will help you make sense out the troubling and confusing world you live in. It will give you the confidence you need to move forward with your life despite trials and setbacks. How do you get faith? Growing in faith requires believing in God and maintaining a close relationship with Him. You can have this relationship with God through daily prayer, Bible study and applying what God says in the Scriptures in your personal life. Learn more about how to grow in Christian faith by reading this Bible study aid ebook, You Can Have Living Faith, and start building that close relationship with God today! Chapters in this ebook: -- Introduction: You Can Have Living Faith -- What Is Faith? -- The Meaning of Faith -- The Book of James: An 'Epistle of Straw'? -- Examples of Living Faith -- When It Seems God Doesn't Hear or Answer -- Enemies of Faith -- Growing in Faith Inside this Bible Study Aid ebook: "Lack of faith—an active, living trust in and relationship with God—is a widespread problem affecting every nation and virtually every individual." "If we want to better our lives, our model for living faith should be Jesus Christ." "Many people don't have the faith described in the Bible because they do not believe or practice what Jesus said: "If you love Me, keep My commandments" (John 14:15)." "The Bible tells us salvation is by God's grace and is not earned by good works "lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9). But we are saved by grace through faith. The danger we face is that our faith will die if we neglect our salvation by not living a life of obedience to God (Hebrews 2:1-3)." "The examples and testimonies of the men and women we read about in Hebrews 11 show us we can believe God." "We should pray to God for faith, and we should pray often for it (Luke 18:1)." "Living a life of prayer, Bible study and humble obedience to God clarifies and strengthens our faith."

Book Description
This book is the companion piece to our economic times, simply the best gathering of the Scriptures as an antidote to our mindless and self-driven affluence I have seen. . . . We all need this book in our daily lives; it will live with me. -- Arthur Jones National Catholic Reporter Father Haughey challenges Christians, on and off Wall St., to see money not as a reward, or protection, or even necessity, but as something quite simple and utilitarian -- a means of expressing their love for God. -- Wall Street Journal Scholarly, provocative, and challenging, this book will help its readers quit trying to serve God and Mammon. -- Bishop William E. McManus John C. Haughey, SJ, is the editor of 'The Faith That Does Justice' and author of 'Should Anyone Say Forever?'.
