Book Description
Anthony Russo returns home to the love of his life - and a secret that will change their relationship forever. Touring with his famous indie rock band Eternal Youths for the last six months has been great, but nothing holds a candle to being in Julie Milligan’s arms. Anthony made things official with Julie right before leaving, and he can’t help but worry maybe it’d all been a dream. When he returns home, Anthony is thrust into the reality of the real world. From balancing a relationship with the band to confronting his dad about the affair that pushed away his mom, his old demons come calling. It’s taken Julie the last year to fight for what she wants, and it’s all within reach - if she can be honest with Anthony. She has a new job and a new apartment, and now she’s applied to be a foster parent. The only problem is, she’s keeping it from Anthony while they juggle their relationship alongside the fame of his band. Julie doesn’t know how to balance the need to foster with the need for Anthony, but telling him may be the ending of their new beginning. Old and new demons come calling, testing their love. Will it be strong enough to make it through to the other side?

Far More than We Think is an exploration of how spirituality, in its broadest sense, can be the logical solution to the many challenges of everyday modern living.

The Gospel People Don't Want to Hear
Author: Lisa Cressman
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 1506456405
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
Lisa Cressman, founder of Backstory Preaching, offers preachers tools to craft difficult sermon messages that can be heard. The gospel changes lives, but to do that it must first be heard. For it to be heard, people have to trust they are "seen" and their concerns and fears are acknowledged. They have to feel their perspectives are real, valid, and respected. Preachers have a difficult message to preach, a message many will not want to hear: new life always emerges from death. Cressman shows preachers how to craft sermons with the right tone and how to have the courage to say what you're called to say. Part 1 of the book provides the preparatory work needed before crafting those difficult sermon messages. Here the focus is on how preachers prepare themselves, build relationships of mutual trust with listeners, and understand and appropriately use authority and leadership to proclaim the gospel. Part 2 focuses on the sermon itself with suggestions on what to say and how to say it. The preacher will find new tools and sharpen existing ones to preach difficult messages with empathy, compassion, and skill.

Summa Theologica, Volume 3 (Part II, Second Section)
Author: St Thomas Aquinas
Publisher: Cosimo, Inc.
ISBN: 1602065578
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 640
Book Description
"The Summa Theologica is the best-known work of Italian philosopher, scholar, and Dominican friar SAINT THOMAS AQUINAS (1225 1274), widely considered the Catholic Church s greatest theologian. Famously consulted (immediately after the Bible) on religious questions at the Council of Trent, Aquinas s masterpiece has been considered a summary of official Church philosophy ever since. Aquinas considers approximately 10,000 questions on Church doctrine covering the roles and nature of God, man, and Jesus, then lays out objections to Church teachings and systematically confronts each, using Biblical verses, theologians, and philosophers to bolster his arguments. In Volume III, Aquinas addresses: faith and heresy charity peace and war mercy, anger, and justice prayer truth and much more. This massive work of scholarship, spanning five volumes, addresses just about every possible query or argument that any believer or atheist could have, and remains essential, more than seven hundred years after it was written, for clergy, religious historians, and serious students of Catholic thought."

How We Love Matters
Author: Albert Tate
Publisher: FaithWords
ISBN: 1546000550
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This powerful book reimagines discipleship by begging us to acknowledge that racism exists in the Church—and offers the hopeful message that we can disciple it out. It is not an accident that racism is alive and well in the American church. Racism has, in fact, been taught within the church for so long most of us don’t even recognize it anymore. Pastor Albert Tate guides all of us in acknowledging the racism that keeps us from loving each other the way God intends and encourages siblings in Christ to sit together in racial discomfort, examining the role we may play in someone’s else’s struggle. How We Love Matters is a series of nine moving letters that educate, enlighten, and reimagine discipleship in a way that flips the church on its head. In these letters that include Dear Whiteness, Dear America, and Dear Church, Tate calls out racism in the world, the church, within himself and us. These letters present an anti-racist mission and vision for believers to follow that helps us to speak up at the family table and call out this evil so it will not persist in future generations. Tate believes that the only way to make change is by telling the truth about where we are—relationally, internally, and spiritually. How We Love Matters is an exposition of relevant Biblical truth, a clarion call for all believers to examine how they see and understand each other, and it is a way forward toward justice, reconciliation, and healing. Because, yes, it is important that we love each other, but it is even more important how we love each other.
