Book Description
Dont Let The Church Steal Your Family addresses issues of putting family first, positions last, the spirit of compromise and entertainment instead of ministry in the church. Many believers spend more time at revivals, choir concerts, church BBQs, afternoon services, weekly meetings than with their families. In addition the result of exchanging family position for church positions has been devastating to the body of Christ. Divorce is on the rise in the church, children are rebellious, men and women have exchanged their roles in the family as the church continues to lower their standards of righteousness. Sinners no longer have a conviction of doing wrong in the church because the body of Christ has open many doors to demonic oppression. Yolanda C. Gilliam hopes to shed light about many controversial issues that have been swept under the carpet and placed in the dark closets of our churches.

Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table
Author: Louie Giglio
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 9780785247227
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Louie Giglio helps you find encouragement, hope, and strength in the midst of any valley as you reject the enemy voices of fear, rage, lust, insecurity, anxiety, despair, temptation, or defeat. Scripture is clear: the Enemy is a liar who will stop at nothing to tempt you into poor decisions and self-defeating mindsets, making you feel afraid, angry, anxious, or defeated. It is all too easy for Satan to weasel his way into a seat at the table intended for only you and your King. But you can fight back. Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table outlines the ways to overcome those lies so you can find peace and security in any challenging circumstance or situation. With the same bold, exciting approach to Scripture as employed in Goliath Must Fall and his other previous works, pastor Louie Giglio examines Psalm 23 in fresh ways, highlighting verse 5: "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies." You can find freedom from insecurity, temptation, and defeat--if you allow Jesus, the Shepherd, to lead the battle for your mind and heart. This spiritual warfare book for those who are leery of spiritual warfare books will resonate with Louie's core Passion tribe as well as with Christians of all ages who want to live a triumphant life in God.
