Festival in the Desert
Author: Laureen Alexa Trujillo
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664206639
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
Life is often filled with trial, heartache, grief, and struggle. But, perhaps there’s a treasure to be found in those difficult seasons and that treasure is intimacy with God Himself. That should be reason enough to rejoice. So, how do we take God’s command to Pharaoh in Exodus 5 to “Let my people go so they may hold a festival for me in the desert” as a holy invitation to be stripped down and made whole, while still worshipping the one who allows the stripping? Through vulnerable and transparent stories, Laureen Alexa Trujillo shares her personal testimony of hardship and trial and all that God taught her through suffering. She highlights the faithfulness of God and brings attention to the purpose of her struggle: To learn dependency on God by being exposed to the barrenness of the desert, surrender the false comfort of our personal Egypt, and come out stronger and more refined for the Promise Land we were created to inherit. Through Festival in the Desert Laureen walks you through the question that confronted her: how do we learn and truly embrace the fact that God can and will work all things together for good as we seek Him and choose to love Him through uncertainty, fear, and hardship? The stories and interactive prompts will point us to the heart of the Father, reminding us that God is faithful, present, trustworthy, and more than capable of making a way for us when there doesn’t seem to be one, ushering in freedom, comfort, and renewed hope.

Desert Fathers and Mothers
Author: Christine Valters Paintner
Publisher: SkyLight Paths Publishing
ISBN: 1594733732
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Timeless and contemplative sayings from the earliest Christian sages of desert spirituality can be a companion on your own spiritual journey. The desert fathers and mothers were ordinary Christians living in solitude in the deserts of Egypt, Palestine, Syria and Arabia who chose to renounce the world in order to deliberately and individually follow God's call. They embraced lives of celibacy, labor, fasting, prayer and poverty, believing that denouncing material goods and practicing stoic self-discipline would lead to unity with the Divine. Their spiritual practice formed the basis of Western monasticism and greatly influenced both Western and Eastern Christianity. Their writings, first recorded in the fourth century, consist of spiritual advice, parables and anecdotes emphasizing the primacy of love and the purity of heart. Focusing on key themes of charity, fortitude, lust, patience, prayer and self-control, the Sayings influenced the rule of St. Benedict and have inspired centuries of opera, poetry and art. This probing and personal SkyLight Illuminations edition opens up their wisdom for readers with no previous knowledge of Western monasticism and early Christianity. It provides insightful yet unobtrusive commentary that describes historical background, explains the practice of asceticism and illustrates how you can use their wisdom to energize your spiritual quest.

Hidden Treasures in Your Field
Author: Mr. Leon Patillo ( Leon)
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1644587572
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Last year I was searching for one theme that would be woven through the Gospels of which, undeniably, love was at the base of them all. In my investigation, I discovered a lot of contributing themes that were hidden just beneath the surface, so I thought I would get out my spiritual shovel and start digging. And when I did, I discovered hidden treasures. On days when you just need a pick me up, this book will get your mind off your depression or challenges. Some readers say it's inspirational and will reveal ah-ha moments right before your eyes. Just the other day I was challenging myself concerning the next music release, which entails a new genre of music for our kids and grandkids. I was so overwhelmed by the challenge that I forgot who the real source of my success is. I started flipping through this book and ran into the exact story I needed to continue down this road. We still have to do the work, but it's as if the huge door in front of us have hands on ours, helping to push. So that's what you will experience as the ground around you becomes unearthed and you will find hidden treasures in your field. I recently discovered the ERV (Easy Reading Version). It breaks the verses down to more of a digestible language. There is nothing worse than to read a whole chapter and then start scratching your head wondering, What did He say? I love following our Savior's example of storytelling, so I have lots of stories, experiences, and testimonials woven throughout a book of memoirs. I pray this experience will help you see a fresh new side of Jesus and find hidden treasures in your field. ZIG ZIGLAR Since 1999, my father started encouraging Leon to write a book. He would say, "If you've got something to say, write it down." Well this book is a product of that encouragement and a true "Treasure" indeed. - Julie Norman CARLOS SANTANA "Leon brought the Gospel..." DR. WAYNE CORDEIRO Leon Patillo's life is a true "God story." His music, love for Jesus and zest for life are interwoven into a multicolored tapestry of miracles and grace. I have known Leon for many years. He has ministered at our church and college, and each time, he has left behind a lasting shimmer of God's beauty and grace. His life is a testimony of a man sold-out to the King of Kings! Dr. Wayne Cordeiro New Hope Christian College PHILIP BAILEY (Lead Vocalist for, Earth, Wind and Fire) I have known Leon, 4 decades. In the beginning of our relationship, he mentored me during our concert tour in Europe. Leon Patillo, is who God used to help me discover, "Hidden Treasures" in my life! www.leonpatillo.org.
