Your God is Too Glorious
Author: Chad Bird
Publisher: New Reformation Publications
ISBN: 1948969815
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Most of us are regular people who have good days and bad days. Our lives are radically ordinary and unexciting. That means they're the kind of lives God gets excited about. While the world worships beauty and power and wealth, God hides his glory in the simple, the mundane, the foolish, working in unawesome people, things, and places.In our day of celebrity worship and online posturing, this is a refreshing, even transformative way of understanding God and our place in his creation. It urges us to treasure a life of simplicity, to love those whom the world passes by, to work for God's glory rather than our own. And it demonstrates that God has always been the Lord of the cross--a Savior who hides his grace in unattractive, inglorious places.Your God Is Too Glorious reminds readers that while a quiet life may look unimpressive to the world, it's the regular, everyday people that God tends to use to do his most important work.

Finding God at the City Dump
Author: Dan Steinbeck
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1685175864
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Finding God at the City Dump: The George LeMaster Story It was Valentine's Day 1982. After two decades of alcohol abuse and a growing list of related problems, George LeMaster Jr. had lost hope. He went to a place where he was familiar--the Wayland Dump, northeast of Wayland, Missouri. He had scavenged things like bicycle parts and old fans from the dump for years and given them a new life. George took a handgun and was planning to end his life at the dump that cold February morning but instead found God by one small item at the dump he didn't expect to see. That item caught his attention and changed his story when he was moments away from an irreversible and needless decision. Now it was George getting a new life, finding the love of Jesus, and rediscovering a love of his family. Finding God at the City Dump tells George's story of growing up in tiny Wayland in Clark County, Missouri; the alcoholism; the deliverance that God gave him starting at the dump; an incredible healing; the importance of caring friends; and the purpose God gave George that led to his salvation, participation in music, his eventual ministry, and powerful testimony as well as a platform to share it. His story reminds us that God can work through difficult and impossible circumstances to bring things for his glory.

Motel of the Mysteries
Author: David Macaulay
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
ISBN: 0547770723
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
It is the year 4022; all of the ancient country of Usa has been buried under many feet of detritus from a catastrophe that occurred back in 1985. Imagine, then, the excitement that Howard Carson, an amateur archeologist at best, experienced when in crossing the perimeter of an abandoned excavation site he felt the ground give way beneath him and found himself at the bottom of a shaft, which, judging from the DO NOT DISTURB sign hanging from an archaic doorknob, was clearly the entrance to a still-sealed burial chamber. Carson's incredible discoveries, including the remains of two bodies, one of then on a ceremonial bed facing an altar that appeared to be a means of communicating with the Gods and the other lying in a porcelain sarcophagus in the Inner Chamber, permitted him to piece together the whole fabric of that extraordinary civilization.

Garbage Theology
Author: Caleb Haynes
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781951252168
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
What if you looked out your window and saw Jesus going through your trash can? Would that surprise you? The greatest illusion of our time comes in the form of waste. From landfills, to micro-trash, to invisible emissions, to imperceivable pollutants, to the factories and shores we never see... it's all hidden away from our sight. However, the harmful effects of this global wastefulness reaches far and wide. It's touching the lives of everyone you love, every place you've been, and every single thing you can imagine. So, what if God is actually very interested in your waste? What if your faith requires a greater awareness about the things you eat, buy, and throw away? Could it be that your salvation is tied to all of God's creation and that you have the opportunity to join God's work of restoration? While addressing the environmental challenges of our time, Garbage Theology seeks to connect our Biblical call to keep and serve creation with how we live our lives today. Through personal stories extracted from years of working in the trash and recycling industry while pastoring a local church, author Caleb Cray Haynes introduces and examines a theology of waste through the lens of Scripture and our story as the people of God in the context of our current global waste emergency.
