Book Description
We sometimes hear the phrase 'Good, gracious me!' Yet the 'me' referred to may be neither good nor gracious. Our God, on the other hand, is both good and gracious. And it is our good and gracious God that we have written this book about. The phrase 'good gracious' is generally used to express surprise - and our good and gracious God is often surprising.

Book Description
What you believe about God sets the foundation of the person you will become. In God Has a Name, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer invites you to rethink many of the prevalent myths and misconceptions about God and weigh them against what God actually tells us about himself. After all, what you believe about God will ultimately shape the type of person you become. We all live at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is many of our ideas about God are wrong. Not all wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways. God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself in the Bible. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including: Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him? What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires? What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine? No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, God Has a Name invites you to step into a fresh and biblically rooted vision of who God is that has the potential to alter your life with God and shape who you become.

Book Description
Is hypocrisy eroding your trust in relationships, the church, or even yourself? We long to know there is a God-and, yes, a community-who is big enough to accept us for who we are and loving enough not to leave us that way. Imagine how our relationships and witness would change if Christians everywhere began to live in a more authentic manner. Throughout the Bible, we find heroes of the faith who lived with daring, messy honesty before God and others. Honest to God is a practical and riveting study of biblical honesty. Follow next generation author, Josh Weidmann, as he takes the reader on a journey toward true Christian authenticity. Both biblical and contemporary examples will give you practical principles and tools for self-examination that will lead to the freedom and transformation that come only through honesty.

Book Description
About The Book This book reviews different forms of human creation mentioned in the Holy Qur’an. It is divided into 4 main chapters: - Chapter I describes the creation of a human being without male and female (Adam), and the creation of a human being from male without female (Eve). - Chapter II describes the creation of a human being from female without male (The Messiah Jesus son of Mary). - Chapter III describes the usual, traditional embryonic events of all the human beings. - Chapter IV emphasizes some of God's signs in man, e.g.: The finger prints, the forehead, and other verses announcing the miracles of God Almighty, with achieving great benefits from contemplating them. The subjects were intentionally approached balancing between reviewing scientific facts and linguistic religious interpretations, in an easy simple way, without excessive summarization or complex boring extravagance, supported by illustrations and photographs as much as possible, hoping that it will benefit both professional and public readers alike.

Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
