Plan B
Author: Anne Lamott
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101217367
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Hallelujah Anyway, Bird by Bird, and Almost Everything, a spiritual antidote to anxiety and despair in increasingly fraught times. As Anne Lamott knows, the world is a dangerous place. Terrorism and war have become the new normal. Environmental devastation looms even closer. And there are personal demands on her faith as well: getting older; her mother's Alzheimer's; her son's adolescence; and the passing of friends and time. Fortunately for those of us who are anxious about the state of the world, whose parents are also aging and dying, whose children are growing harder to recognize as they become teenagers, Plan B offers hope that we’re not alone in the midst of despair. It shares with us Lamott's ability to comfort and to make us laugh despite the grim realities. Anne Lamott is one of our most beloved writers, and Plan B is a book more necessary now than ever. It is further evidence that, as The New Yorker has written, "Anne Lamott is a cause for celebration."

Fierce Marriage
Author: Ryan Frederick
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493412779
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

Your Plan B
Author: Gregory Selkirk
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781701908529
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 121
Book Description
In this book, "Your Plan B was always God's Plan A", I attempt to identify and explore various mistakes and disasters that seemingly beset many of the biblical champions of faith. Upon closer examination of these difficult events, we find these "errors" and "problems", far from being obstacles preventing the accomplishment of the will of God, are in fact part of the will of God that they are seemingly derailing. One such example of this would be the death of Jesus on the cross. Things were going so well for Jesus and the disciples and the thousands who he was helping, until his abrupt arrest and execution. For the disciples, Jesus death was a disaster that marked the end everything, extinguishing all hope for their bright future... until Mary Magdalene, laughing, crying, shaking and stammering returned from the sepulcher with the news! He's alive! His death, burial, and resurrection being the greatest thing that man has ever known.Today in our Christian walk, as we attempt to do the will of God, our best laid plans and purest intentions can be washed out to sea by a cruel tsunami, never to be seen again. This can leaves us bewildered and perplexed while holding the broken pieces of the shattered dreams of our "Plan A". And it is all the will of God...

Take Hold of the Faith You Long For
Author: Sharon Jaynes
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 9780801018855
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
On the outside, many women are well-put-together Christians with trendy shoes, beautiful children, and wide, white smiles. On the inside, those same women are little girls cowering at the edge of the playground, hoping no one notices them, yet still wishing they could join in. They've professed faith and know the right things, but they struggle to truly take hold of the "life more abundant" that Jesus offers. Instead they settle for a life that's less than what God has promised them. In this liberating book, Sharon Jaynes reveals the most common reasons women get stuck with a mediocre, mundane faith. Then she shows women how to break free and move forward, leaving behind the feelings of inferiority, inadequacy, and insecurity that are holding them hostage. She uncovers untapped sources of confidence and courage, equipping women to move from knowing the truth to actually believing it--and living it out boldly in a life marked by true freedom.
