Book Description
"For centuries the church has paired its church year—focused on Christ’s life, death, and resurrection—with a second calendar that uses the lives of saints as a lens to see God’s gracious acts. Evangelical Lutheran Worship has continued that practice with its calendar of festivals and commemorations. In this volume teacher and scholar Gail Ramshaw shows that those whom the church has lifted up are both faithful and fascinating, always pointing to Christ. Here is a guide to help you include these observances in your prayer life.Each day’s entry includes a brief chronology of the person’s life; a summary of why the person is remembered by the church; an image of, or related to, the commemoration; a quote from the person, where possible; and devotional hymn and prayer suggestions for the day." -- publisher's website. Intended for family devotions, local church gatherings, or Sunday worship.

Book Description
Discover the Power of Praising God When Becky Harling was diagnosed with cancer over ten years ago, she begged God for healing. A friend of hers had another idea. She challenged Becky to spend twenty minutes a day in praise. Becky thought, What if I’m not feeling thankful? But as she intentionally praised God, she began to experience new joy—and her relationship with God has never been the same. Now, in The Thirty-Day Praise Challenge, Becky guides you in praising God for twenty minutes every day for one month. Arranged topically, the book includes music selections to enhance your praise journey and creative ideas for continuing the habit of praise. As Becky writes, “If you take this challenge, your faith will grow more than you dreamed possible. You will experience more joy, less insecurity, more courage, less anxiety. Thirty days of praising God. Are you ready?”

Book Description
Allow God's infinite love to flow into your heart as you praise His holy name. This book, through the grace of God and the power of the Holy Spirit, will be hope where there is little to no hope. To give us His love when there is no love. To be the light of Christ in a world that often has darkness. To be a peacemaker where there is no peace. To give us the courage to forgive others and ourselves. We were chosen to make a difference in this world. To build up God's kingdom. It is our purpose. As you reflect upon these meditations, know that God is calling you to love His people. Will you say yes to this calling? Say yes to the Holy Spirit? You will never be sorry! You will praise God with gratitude forever and ever! Hallelujah! 365 Days of Praise is a book of meditation that will get us closer to God. Praise is an important component of building our relationship with God. We are told in Psalm 150:6, "Let everything that has breath give praise to the Lord." What is praise? It is giving glory to God for who He is. When we acknowledge that He is our Savior, our redeemer, healer, the God of hope, truth, and love, it helps us get in His presence. Our heart and soul begin to be joyous and find peace that "passes all understanding." Praise is the greatest form of prayer. Jesus taught us praise by teaching us to say, "Our father who art in heaven, hallowed by thy name." Each day as you read 365 Days of Praise you will reflect upon how much God loves us, how He wants to heal us, and how praise is an important element of that healing.

Book Description
"At some point in his life, Job learned to praise God during the difficult circumstances that came his way. He knew that his blessings came from God and that it was not his own ability that produced his prosperity. By directing his thoughts and his confession on God, Job's faith was increased, his thanksgiving abounded, and Satan was unable to destroy him. Do you have the kind of faith in God that produces praise through every circumstance? As children of God, we have to learn, as Job did, to cultivate that attitude of praise in our lives. 150 Days of Praise will change your life as you learn how to practice praise, bringing victory to the believer, defeat to Satan, and a greater intimacy with God." --Jelly Valimont (1st lady at Griffin First Assembly) LOVE: Our love level with God grows in moments of intimacy. Intimacy is such a warm word. It means you get close, cuddle up, and you experience each other in private ways. Intimacy with God means you climb up in His lap, He whispers sweet words, and your heart heals from wounds and pain.
