Profound reflections on the cross that help you to meditate on and marvel at the sacrificial love of Jesus. This book can be used as a devotional, especially during Lent and Easter.

Iran: The Coming Crisis
Author: Mark Hitchcock
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 0307562484
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
The Past, Present, and Future—Exposed The events wracking the Middle East today are confusing to even the most avid news buff. Now all the answers to your questions are offered in just one resource. Divided into five main sections, Iran: The Coming Crisis contains the most up-to-date, thorough information available and is complete with maps, charts, and timelines for visual assistance. Iran’s past, present, and future are exposed—the country’s quest for nuclear weapons and support of Palestinian terror groups, its ability to “play the oil card,” and Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s apocalyptic beliefs that motivate his actions. You’ll discover the truth about today’s events, how they relate to Bible prophecy, and what the Bible clearly describes is yet to come. It’s a crisis unlike any the world has ever faced. Are We Headed for a Nuclear Jihad? “Israel must be wiped off the map,” Iran president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said it himself. He has denied the Holocaust, and his actions are motivated by a dangerous apocalyptic view of Islam. Meanwhile, Islamic extremists are in hot pursuit of nuclear weapons as they stand as gatekeepers to the Persian Gulf oil flow. Closer to home, President Bush has stated that the greatest threat to America is nuclear terrorism. In a prophecy written over 2,500 years ago, Ezekiel 38-39 foretells Iran ’s future. Iran , Russia , and other Islamic nations will invade Israel in the end times. Today, the connection between Iran and Russia only grows. How close is this invasion? What will happen? Will America survive? Will the world? Mark Hitchcock , an expert in Bible prophecy, exposes Iran ’s past, present, and future with striking clarity. Find maps, charts, and answers to your every question inside. “I highly recommend Mark as a faithful guide to understanding current events in light of God’s wonderful plan of prophecy.” -Tim LaHaye, Pastor and bestselling author Story Behind the Book There seems to be no turning back from the looming crisis in the Middle East. The Islamic and political rulers of Iran are set in their ideology by principle. The West and Israel are headed for some sort of confrontation economically, socially, and likely militarily. Mark Hitchcock ’s background as a lawyer, pastor, and expert in Bible prophecy suits him perfectly as a Christian authority on the subject. Timing is critical, and his new book will release as more and more everyday people—Christians and non-Christians alike—realize the gravity of world events and question how they relate to Bible prophecy.

The Innovation Crisis
Author: Ted Esler
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802499287
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
If you aren’t innovating, stagnation isn’t far away. Ministry leaders carry the burden of keeping their organizations lean, focused, and relevant. The stakes are especially high for churches and other organizations that fulfill the Great Commission. When souls are on the line, there’s no room for bureaucratic bloat or sustaining a cumbersome infrastructure. It’s up to the leadership—that’s you—to realize where the organization is in maintenance mode and find ways to innovate even when the growth curve has slowed and the team has started to grow complacent. Using missions disruptor William Carey as an example, Ted Esler shows how you, too, can innovate in ways that change the ministry landscape. Esler will help you keep an eye on your “eccliosystem”—the ecclesial ecosystem in which you exist. You’ll learn about the four stages of organizational culture—disrupting, innovating, sustaining, and stagnating—and gain strategies for staying in that sweet spot where innovations keep coming and stagnation can’t take hold. The gospel of Jesus Christ never grows stale. Don’t let your ministry ever forget it!

Understanding and Overcoming Your Emotional Issues-A Biblical Perspective and Solution
Author: Waltere Koti
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1644920697
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
If you were to watch the news lately, you will notice that opioid addiction has been declared a national crisis as many turn to drugs and other substances like alcohol, marijuana, cocaine, wine, and spirits to control their mind and thought process. Many also turn to psychiatrists to get relief from prescription medication. All these drugs, legal or illegal, have one thing in common: temporal and intermittent control of your feelings, emotions, and mind. A few years ago, while training as chaplain, we had a guest speaker who is a psychiatrist with more than thirty years' experience. She came to give a speech on emotional issues, and I raised my hand and asked her this fundamental question: what causes depression? Her response was, "Cause is unknown." This response troubled me as I thought to myself, if the cause is unknown, then why are millions of people being medicated? This book seeks to answer a fundamental question: are emotional issues like loneliness, fear, anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts medical or spiritual issues? Your response to this question will determine where you go for help.
