Wonders of His Love
Author: Champ Thornton
Publisher: New Growth Press
ISBN: 1645071588
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 41
Book Description
Advent is the perfect time for families to gather together and celebrate the birth of Jesus. Using pictures of Jesus from Isaiah's prophecies—the Light, the Branch, the Shepherd, and the Savior—brings to life the true meaning of Christmas. Hundreds of years before Jesus was born, God spoke to his people through the prophet Isaiah, promising them a Savior. To communicate God’s message, Isaiah used striking, stunning, and surprising imagery—the "wonders" of his love! Isaiah pointed God’s people to the future, when one day, through his birth, death, and resurrection, Jesus would deliver his people from sin and sorrow forever. Perfect for busy families with younger children, each week of Advent focuses on one of Isaiah’s images and has readings related to the week’s theme—Jesus the Light; Jesus the Branch; Jesus the Shepherd; Jesus the Savior—and, on Christmas Day, Jesus the Bread. Each week also includes fun stories, discussion questions, crafts, recipes, games, and suggestions for family service projects. Illustrated by Jeremy Slagle, this four-week devotional will draw families closer to Jesus and to each other.

God’s Unchanging Word in an Ever-Changing World
Author: Stephen M. Davis
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666793175
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
The times in which we live are often described as "unprecedented." The word might be overused, yet the last few years have seen exceptional healthcare challenges, loss of human life, economic disruption, and political turmoil. We are now in the second year of novel coronavirus and its global impact. Most people either know someone who died from the virus or have experienced its nefarious effects in other ways--illness, unemployment, school and border closures, shortages, confinement, addiction, fear, anxiety. Families were separated from loved ones who died alone in hospitals and nursing homes. We wait for a return to normal or a new normal and live with the lingering suspicion that life will never be the same. Where do we look for hope? As Christians, our ultimate hope is in God and his promises. Christians have dual citizenship, earthly and heavenly. On earth they want what most people want--security, satisfaction, and significance--and desire a better world. Christians also assert that this world order will pass away and every person will live somewhere forever. These messages from God's word seek to point Christians and non-Christians to Jesus Christ as the only one who provides genuine, eternal hope.
