Book Description
From New York Times bestselling author and pastor Timothy Keller, a beautiful box set of three books that unpacks the spiritual meaning of life's most significant events: birth, marriage, and death Birth, marriage, and death are milestones in our lives in which we experience our greatest happiness and our deepest grief. And so it is profoundly important to understand how to approach these occasions with grace, endurance, and joy. In On Birth, Timothy Keller helps us understand both physical and spiritual birth, as well as how baptism connects the two. In On Marriage, Timothy and Kathy Keller bring forty-five years of personal experience with marriage, as well as a deep understanding of God's resources in the Bible, to teach us how to begin and nourish a marriage. And in a culture that does its best to deny death, On Death teaches us about facing death with the resources of faith from the Bible. With wisdom and compassion, Keller shares the Bible's alternative to despair and denial. Short and powerful, these three books give us the tools to better understand the meaning of birth, marriage, and death within God's vision of life.

Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Jill Roberts, a retired trial lawyer, goes from weighing evidence in the courtroom to weighing evidence regarding Christianity. She has condensed decades of Bible study into a five-hour read through which you will find God, along with the answers to the only questions that will matter one hundred years from now. After giving the backstory of why Jesus came to Earth in the first place, she makes an airtight case for why this should matter to all of us. If you have ever pondered the meaning of this life or that of the life to come, in this book you will find God, as well as the signposts that will guide you through your journey here and into an indescribably interesting and wondrous eternity. *** “How to Find God in Under Five Hours is a highly-readable journey of the spirit, a seeker’s field guide to understanding Christianity. In these hectic and uncertain times – when we all seem too busy to even read – Jill Roberts has given us a clear and concise road map to solving God’s mysteries.” —John Fusco, Screenwriter of The Shack, Thunderheart and The Highwaymen “A clear and compelling retelling of how God has revealed Himself to any of us who want to find Him. A journey worth taking.” —Dr. Craig Loibner, who served as Pastor of Fellowship North Church for 30+ years. “This book is a tour de force in its brilliant synthesis of the Bible and Jesus. A must-read for any Christ-follower or anyone searching for answers to life’s deepest questions.” —Kim Tapfer, co-author of I Am (Transformed in Him) “Jill takes us on a simple but profound journey through the story of God. With every twist and turn, she draws attention to His never-ending grace and mercy. I was reminded afresh of the unlimited forgiveness and love of a God who refuses to give up on his creation. In this small book, you will discover a big God who is always pursuing you.” —Ash Meaney, West L.A. Campus Pastor, Vintage Church L.A.

The Better Mom
Author: Ruth Schwenk
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 031034946X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Mothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn’t change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful, and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God is using our children and motherhood to shape us. In The Better Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children, encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing the mess. We don’t need to settle for surviving our kids’ childhood. We can grow through it. With refreshing and heartfelt honesty Ruth emboldens moms to: Find freedom and walk confidently in purpose Create a God-honoring home environment Overcome unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and more Avoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection Cultivate life-giving friendships At the heart of The Better Mom is the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a worthy life. We don’t have to settle for either being apathetic or struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far. Ruth offers a better option. She says, “It’s okay to come as we are, but what we’re called to do and be is far too important to stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become."

Book Description
Terra is overcrowded, but a solution may have been found -- tucked away in Roswell is alien technology that leads to the creation of a method of space travel known as portaling. A party of soldiers and scientists led by Dr. Emma Bradley, Colonel John Berger, and Dr. Layton Tremayne are about to take what they believe is the first step into the unknown. But what they discover is not only a wonder but a puzzle. The city of Eden on the distant planet Nibiru has obvious Terran influences. Who was there before them? When Emma, John, and Layton return to Terra, they're dismayed to find things are even worse than they were when the trio left. The atmosphere is on the verge of toxicity and the population is reaching Malthusian proportions. Worse, there are plans afoot to portal the excess population off Terra to planets which may not be what their new inhabitants expect. Most won't survive. Then they learn that a platoon of soldiers were portaled to Eden for a planned invasion of Nibiru and the surrounding planets. Emma, John, and Layton scramble to stop the military action, but will they be able to take back the city that's become their home?
