Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Nothing is more important in life than loving God. Jesus of Nazareth said the first and greatest commandment is: "Love God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength." Francis de Sales, bishop, doctor, saint, and mystic, published Treatise on the Love of God in 1616. Scholars consider it to be one of the classics of Christian literature, on the level of The Cloud of Unknowing, The Imitation of Christ by Thomas a Kempis, and The Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola. Yet, most people have never heard of it. Dr. Bruce Tallman's new book God's Ecstatic Love takes de Sales' spiritual masterpiece and updates it in a way that makes sense to 21st century minds. Packed full of key quotes from scripture and the original Treatise, the goal of God's Ecstatic Love is to enable believers to master the most important life-skill of all: a passionate and intelligent life-transforming love of God. "Remarkable .... grounds us in a new awareness of God's ever-present love, reaping a rich harvest of hope for our spiritual lives." -Michael Prieur "Provides a mature adult spirituality grounded in authentic love of God and neighbor." -Edwin Buettner "Invaluable for anyone on a journey to nurturing a more intimate relationship with God." -John Fraresso "You will find your own love of God grows as you discover God loves you beyond anything you can imagine." -Michael Tremblay

Six Bible Stories That Never Happened...But Maybe Could Have
Author: Robert Bailor
Publisher: LifeRich Publishing
ISBN: 1489736956
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
This book takes six minor characters of the New Testament—the rich young man, the widow and her mite, the centurion Cornelius, one of the ten healed lepers, the good thief, and Peter’s mother-in-law—and presents fictional stories woven into the actual Biblical narrative. Jacob’s story concerns choosing between God and money. Sarah’s story is about believing in Jesus’ power to heal. Cornelius’ story regards coming to faith even in the face of a questionable past. Miriam’s story chronicles her physical and moral restoration leading to a deep personal commitment to Christ. The Dismas story is about forgiveness and inner beauty in the face of disfigurement and confusion. And the Hannah story dramatizes the overcoming of doubt and resentment followed by the discovery of peace and genuine faith. These stories resonate with readers, for the challenges presented are not unlike those faced by contemporary believers and unbelievers alike.

Compassion in Practice
Author: Frank Rogers
Publisher: Upper Room Books
ISBN: 0835815684
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Jesus was a spiritual teacher who demonstrated personal and social transformation. His earliest disciples were first known not as Christians but as followers of the Way. Jesus' Way was a spirituality of radical compassion. He taught how to love and be loved by an extravagantly compassionate God; how to cultivate love for ourselves; and how to love our neighbors by extending love to the outcasts, the offensive, and even our enemies. Compassion in Practice is an introduction to Christian compassion. It explains not just what Christian compassion looks like but how to practice it in a world ravaged by violence, fear, and reactivity. This book teaches us how to love as Jesus loved. Expanding on the foundation of Practicing Compassion, Frank Rogers defines the way Jesus prepared his disciples to transform hearts hardened from the assaults of life into compassionate hearts.
