Book Description
We read on almost a daily basis of pastors, assistant pastors, and ministry workers that have fallen into sin. Even though they are our brothers and sisters in Christ, we, as the body of Christ, tend to judge, reject, or at the least become indifferent to these fallen servants. What can and should be done for these men and ladies that have fallen? Should they be left to themselves to figure it out or earn their path to restoration? The Bible is a book of restoration. My hope and desire with this book are to help many not only to understand the devastation of one that has fallen but also to help the fallen on the path to restoration. Many of our Biblical heroes were guilty of moral failures, yet over and over we see a gracious and loving God and Saviour that picks up the fallen. He not only forgives them but also restores them to fruitful service in ministry once again. Often, we see their lives afterward become greater and more effective in the kingdom of Christ. The tragedy is, though, that many do not know what to do with a fallen Christian. Many struggle to counsel a marriage or a family that has been broken and hurt because of sin. This book helps the reader to understand the mind of God regarding restoration and gives direction on how to guide one back to usefulness and victory. Read about my own personal testimony of failure and my path to being restored. God has been gracious to me and has helped me to help others. May He help you as well.

Unsinkable Faith
Author: Tracie Miles
Publisher: David C Cook
ISBN: 1434710262
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
For many people, remaining optimistic and feeling positive about themselves and their lives is a constant battle—especially when circumstances are difficult and life is hard. For others, negativity is something that only sneaks up from time to time, yet still wreaks havoc in their hearts. Regardless of the root causes, once pessimistic thoughts permeate our minds, our feelings and emotions begin to control us instead of us controlling them. Eventually it doesn’t seem possible to stay positive, happy, and full of joy, and negative thought patterns shake our faith, causing us to sink emotionally, mentally, and spiritually over time. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Despite what storms roll in, hearts anchored in God don’t sink. When we change the way we think, we can change the way we feel and live, even if our circumstances remain the same. Intentionally embracing the opportunity to experience a transformed heart and a renewed mind opens the door for a changed life, because a positive mind will always lead to a more positive life. In Unsinkable Faith, author and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker Tracie Miles offers hope for women who struggle with negativity. Each chapter explores Tracie’s and other women’s personal stories, showing how they rose above their circumstances by transforming and renewing their minds. Unsinkable Faith is a breath of fresh air for anyone longing for a heart full of joy, an unbreakable smile, and a new, more optimistic perspective on life. This book will equip you to: Replace pessimism with positive thinking by becoming the captain of your thoughts; Learn how true joy and happiness are based on choice, not circumstances; Overcome unhealthy habits of negative thinking by intentionally implementing three easy mind-renewing steps; Stop feeling hopeless and pitiful, and start feeling hope-filled and powerful instead; and Discover that when you change the way you think, you change the way feel, and in turn you can change your life completely.

Undefiled

Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 1575673665
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Amid the chaos of cybersex, impersonal sex, adultery, homosexuality, and sexual dissatisfaction in marriage, Undefiled calls readers toward a new kind of spiritual and sexual revolution. Sexual impurity creates a vicious circle, one that springs from misconceptions about Christ and further taints our understanding of Him. Yet another circle is available to men and women trapped in sexual sin, a circle of sexual redemption. When practiced as God intends, spirituality and sexuality both draw us closer to Christ. Spiritual maturity and sexual maturity go hand-in-hand, and together they hold out the promise of redemption and restoration needed by everyone who has been damaged by sexual sin. There is hope. Real change is possible; true intimacy is available. To the person who has failed time and time again sexually, God’s message is simple: You, too, can be undefiled.
