Catching Contentment
Author: Liz Carter
Publisher: Inter-Varsity Press
ISBN: 1783597410
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
If anyone has a right to feel angry with life, then the author is a strong candidate. Having battled with lung disease from a young age, suffered at the hands of bullies, and, reluctantly, given up her much-loved teaching job, she has plenty to complain about. But she has made a point of exploring contentment. She has drawn particularly on Paul's letter to the Philippians. 'Contentment is something we can all catch hold of,' she believes, 'whatever circumstances we find ourselves in.' This is a message which we need to hear, whether we are lifelong sufferers, like the author, or facing deprivation or injustice of another sort. Or we may simply have fallen into bad habits. We cannot fail to be uplifted, and hopefully transformed, by the author's discoveries as we learn to buck trends within society and the church. Introduction Confident contentment 1 Confident in our faith 2 Confident in our meaning and purpose 3 Confident in our identity and calling 4 Confident in our future Courageous contentment 5 Courage is active 6 Courage is acceptance 7 Courageous is brokenness 8 Courage in the Word 9 Courageous disappointment 10 Courageous lament 11 Courage is pressing on 12 Courageous contentment in action Captivated contentment 13 Captivated by glory 14 Captivated by surrender 15 Captivated satisfaction 16 Captivated by yearning 17 Captivated by infinite love 18 Captivated by discipline 19 Captivated in the dark night Contagious contentment 20 Contagious unity 21 Jesus - the greatest example of contagious contentment

Out from under the Table
Author: Linda Seabrook
Publisher: Word Alive Press
ISBN: 1486617336
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 118
Book Description
The longer we live, the more we realize that life isn’t about white picket fences and rose gardens. Life can hand us trials that change the course of our lives and leave us asking where God is in all of it. Or the daily struggles can just chip away at us, bit by bit, leaving us feeling depleted and empty. But what if we realized that God calls us to so much more than just despair when we face struggles? In some of the most uncertain and even frightening moments of our lives, our Father invites us to draw close to Him. While our humanness wants us to reject His promises and plans, God offers the sweetest of communion in the darkest of times. When everything and everyone seems to fail us, we can live in the reality that God promises to never leave us or forsake us. Out From Under the Table is written for everyone who longs to walk victoriously through the trials of life and see brokenness from God’s point of view. The God who showed His abiding presence to those in the Old and New Testaments is the same God who walks alongside us today, even when the light at the end of the tunnel cannot be seen.
