Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Saul knew the Law with precision. He trained under the best teachers, walked the straightest lines, and carried scripture like breath in his lungs. His mind was formed around tradition. His identity was sealed by discipline. His confidence came from believing he was right with God and from doing everything required to prove it.He didn't hesitate to act. When the message of Jesus began to spread, Saul moved with full authority. He searched homes. He named names. He held the coats of those who threw stones. His loyalty to the Law shaped every choice. He believed the followers of Christ were leading people away from God. And so he gave everything to stop them. He did what his conscience allowed. He did what his training affirmed. He acted from belief.Scripture does not describe Saul as a violent man for violence's sake. It reveals a man certain of his assignment. Every prison cell, every dragged-out believer, every act of pressure came from a heart that thought it was protecting something holy. That's what gives weight to his transformation. The very traits that fueled his mission, fervor, discipline, and obedience, did not disappear. They were redirected. After Damascus, Saul didn't lose his fire. He gave it back to the One it belonged to.The moment of encounter came with a question: 'Saul, why are you persecuting Me ' The voice didn't debate or explain. It spoke from truth, with presence. And Saul heard. Everything he thought he understood shifted in an instant. He had not been fighting. He had been resisting the Lord.That moment on the road broke open something deeper than doubt. It made space for truth to enter - not just new information, but a new foundation. Saul could no longer continue as he was. He entered the city blind, led by the hand, quiet for the first time in years. In that stillness, a different kind of knowing took root. Not a system. Not a cause. A Person.When Saul became Paul, the change was complete. His name carried the mark of mercy. His past no longer needed hiding, because it had been held. He would spend the rest of his life preaching the grace he once tried to silence.That is where the real journey begins. In surrender. Paul's life shows us that no measure of religious success can replace the presence of Jesus. And no past disqualifies a soul willing to be remade. This is a story about love arriving in the middle of wrong roads and calling us by name anyway. This is how the world begins to shift. One soul at a time, interrupted by light, remade by the voice that still speaks. Jayarani, Ida (illustrator).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Is this God's will for my life ' It's the question that keeps people up at night - over a job offer, a relationship, a move across the country, or simply the quiet fear that they're headed the wrong direction altogether. After forty years as a pastor and evangelist, Michael C Herbert has sat across from thousands of people wrestling with exactly that question. In How To Know the Will of God , he lays out what four decades of ministry have taught him: discerning God's will isn't guesswork, and it isn't a formula either - it's a pattern you can learn to recognize.Drawing on Scripture, circumstance, the Holy Spirit's inner witness, wise counsel, and the peace of God - five trustworthy witnesses that confirm one another - this book gives you a practical way to test decisions big and small, and shows you what to do when those witnesses seem to disagree.Inside, you'll find: - A clear, workable framework for discerning God's will - tested through prayer, obedience, and patience, not guesswork- The difference between God's moral will (never in question) and His directional will (uniquely yours) - a distinction the author calls one of the most freeing truths in Scripture- Honest engagement with questions many believers carry in silence, including a compassionate, biblically grounded look at a believer's eternal security after suicide- Real stories drawn from a life of ministry - feeding children in inner-city Milwaukee alongside his son, book donations turned away twice before a door finally opened, and the altar call that changed the course of his life- Scripture throughout in the NIV, carefully checked chapter by chapterHerbert writes as a pastor who has walked with people through prison cells, rescue missions, and mission fields from Poland to Israel - not as a theologian working from a desk. The result is a book that is deeply biblical and unmistakably practical: honest about the waiting, honest about the doubt, and confident that God still speaks clearly to those who are listening.If you've ever asked, 'God, what do You want me to do ' - this book was written for you.
