Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'This book will be of immense help to those who desire to hear 'Well done' from the Father.' -Dr. Gary Chapman, author, The Five Love Languages Bill Cosby said, 'I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.' Too many of us get trapped in the cycle of putting out fires and keeping people happy-squandering valuable time, energy and peace of mind. The only true escape from such mire comes from pleasing God first-being what He wants as opposed to what others expect you to be. We are challenged by the apostle Paul in his letter to the Ephesians to 'find out what pleases the Lord.' The author explores this appeal by examining the seven times in Jesus' earthly ministry when He voiced specific words of commendation to followers. From the task of selecting disciples to visiting with friends just hours before the crucifixion, Jesus chose unique and unexpected opportunities to highlight the qualities in a person that mean the most to the Father. Don't settle for less than God's stamp of approval on your life. Read and discover what pleases the Lord.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The 'it' factor is a phrase that I've heard tossed around for years. It often applies to those who excel in their particular niche in life. For example, we might say an actor or athlete stands above the crowd in their work because, quite frankly, they possess that something extra called 'It.' I believe the 'it' factor also plays a significant role in the realm of faith, but not in the way you might think. Here, it's not necessarily a matter of ability and notoriety, but rather being surrendered to and in tune with something, or rather Someone, beyond ourselves. The Bible says, 'If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ' (Romans 8:9). This means that once we receive Christ as Savior, the Holy Spirit comes to dwell within us. The apostle Paul went as far as to say, 'I no longer live, but Christ lives in me' (Galatians 2:20). For far too long, the Holy Spirit has been kept at arm's length by many in the evangelical church. For reasons of fear, apathy, confusion, and perhaps even ignorance, millions of believers are neglecting a significant source of power, comfort, strength, and inspiration that stands ready to guide them in their walk with Christ. I hope and pray, if even in a small way, The Spiritual 'It' Factor will chip away at that resistance. According to D.L. Moody, the famed nineteenth century evangelist, 'You might as well try to see without eyes, hear without ears, or breathe without lungs, as to try to live the Christian life without the Holy Spirit.' With that in mind, launch forth into the pages contained within and experience a life-changing journey. Ask God to activate the spiritual 'it' factor within you, a phenomenon that can come no other way than through a relationship with Christ and the indwelling of His Spirit.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - If you find yourself interested in money, you're in good company because Jesus was too-and still is. In fact one-sixth of the gospels and one-third of the parables deal with the critical area of stewardship. Money & More: The Quest for Generous Living explores a portion of these key encounters and teachings. But it doesn't stop there. The author taps into other sections of the Old and New Testaments to reveal Divine counsel on a subject that has occupied people's time and attention throughout the centuries. God provides three ways for us to invest in eternity-with our time, talents and treasures. The way we share our treasures is the driving force behind this book. Liberation begins when we realize God is the owner and we are the stewards. How we choose to handle what He so graciously provides has a major impact on the quality of life we can anticipate. Some choose to hoard their money, thus missing the blessings that could be theirs by sharing their resources and giving back a portion of what they've received to churches and other worthy charitable causes. Others squander their money as fast, some even faster than it comes in, leaving nothing to give. Jesus' claim that 'It is more blessed to give than receive' (Acts 20:35) is by no means an empty platitude or shop worn cliché. It's a life changing truth that Money & More seeks to deliver in a fresh and a new way. Dive in, yet take small bites and chew slowly as you begin your quest into generous living.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Understanding and confronting our weaknesses is the key to God's deliverance. Through the use of lighthearted anecdotes strengthened by relevant Scripture, Gaddis helps us brace ourselves for life's eminent storms.I urge you to experience the positive, life-changing power of God manifested in this great work.' ~ Mike Huckabee, Governor of Arkansas We live in a pressure cooker of difficulty, fear, insecurity, instability and even danger. Who among us hasn't dangled at the end of our rope at one time or another, hanging on by our fingernails While we aren't guaranteed exemption from the social, political, family, financial, medical and natural crises that abound, the Lord always provides an exit strategy to those willing to seek and receive relief. 'But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it' (1 Corinthians 10:13, NIV). In Escape from Wits' End, Todd Gaddis examines ten passages, one from each of the Bible's main sections, in which God provides for His children in periods of peril. Difficult times teach valuable lessons; yet we aren't meant to remain snared in the trap forever. 'Escape from wits' end' and discover the rich and meaningful life God desires for you. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - We live in a food and body obsessed society. Just surf through the channels on your TV and you'll see that a substantial share of what's offered confirms this. We spend billions of dollars annually feeding, clothing, enhancing and exercising these temporal tabernacles God made for us to survive on planet Earth. And while some legalistically reject this reality as a worldly, senseless, sensual charade, others dive in head first, often succumbing to obsession and addiction. In Reclaim Your Body-Restore Your Soul, Dr. Gaddis sorts through the crisis and examines what the Bible has to say about the subject. Certainly, our requirement for literal nourishment pales in comparison to the spiritual food needed for the soul. Also, as the apostle Paul said, 'Physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things' (1 Timothy 4:8). And while it's true that 'Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart' (1 Samuel 16:7), we're nevertheless commanded to take care of ourselves physically. Since the bodies of Christians are temples of the Holy Spirit, we must honor God (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) by taking the best possible care of them. Feast on these pages for the inspiration and encouragement needed to make the spiritual and physical improvements you've deeply desired. There's no better time than now, to Reclaim Your Body-Restore Your Soul. About the author: Todd Gaddis has been a pastor since 1990 and currently serves at First Baptist Church in LaFayette, Georgia.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The mere mention of the word church generates a wide range of reactions in this secular, post-Christian, consumer-driven society in which we live. Many people respond favorably because they are actively involved and often center their lives around the church. Others grimace, either from guilt that they don't attend, bitterness from a bad experience, or indifference from a lack of interest. Whatever your feeling is, one thing is biblically certain: The church, locally and globally, is God's main way for bringing people into a saving and sustaining relationship with His Son, Jesus Christ. Jesus told His disciple Peter, 'Upon this rock I will build my church' (Matt. 16:18), which is the first time the word church appears in the Bible. Not long after that, the Holy Spirit swept onto the scene at that fateful Pentecost celebration (Acts 2) to fulfill Jesus' prophecy. Since that monumental day, the church has grown from a fledgling band of believers to a thriving force that spans the globe. And one day Jesus will return to claim His 'bride' and host the wedding supper of the Lamb. As you read, consider your own personal place at the table, making sure your reservation is secure. In the process, you'll gain an increased appreciation for the church and a greater desire to serve her cause.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When I read Todd Gaddis' books, I think of the great preacher and author Chuck Swindoll. Todd weaves in wonderful illustrations as he leads us to the fountain of truth for refreshing. Practical help for daily living flows like a river from every page. He paints beautiful portraits of grace and mercy for us to behold in such a way that we can 'get it.' -Larry McFadden, evangelist and author In the beginning, God spoke into existence the heavens and the earth and saw that they were good. Then, He created man in His own image, gave him dominion over the rest of creation, and saw that it was very good. Unfortunately, paradise didn't last for long. Bliss turned to blunder when Adam and Eve ate fruit from the only tree they were told to avoid. Immediately, mankind became ensnared by sin. In The Great Curse Reversal, Todd Gaddis explores the work of Satan in the Garden and the first couple's subsequent plunge into iniquity. He details the only true answer to mankind's predicament, a reconciliation that comes through Jesus Christ. As the book progresses, special emphasis is given to the tragedy of Hell and the delight of Heaven -along with a description of the Second Coming, judgments, rewards and the establishment of a new heaven and new earth. Read and ruminate over this book, discovering the antidote for the poison of sin. As an added bonus, you'll learn about the wonderful plans God has for those who've received Him and the disaster in store for those who don't.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the middle of the turbulent sixties Hal David and Burt Bacharach teamed up to write the syrupy hit, 'What the World Needs Now is Love,' originally sung by Jackie DeShannon on Imperial Records. Since then, the song has been performed by over 100 artists. Notable among them: Dionne Warwick, The Carpenters, Barry Manilow, Luther Vandross and Bacharach himself. It is unclear if the writers meant it to be a spiritual song (it does mention Lord) or not. But it does suggest a sacred message that is sorely needed today. We live in a world long on information, deception, distraction and recreation, yet woefully short on pure, unadulterated love. When asked to name the greatest commandment Jesus said, '.Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments' (Matthew 22:37-40). Paul penned, 'And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love' (1Corinthians 13:13). With these truths in mind, Gaddis dissects a variety of Biblical texts (some obvious, some obscure), expounding on God's love for us, the love we should have for Him, and the love He desires that we have for one another. Delve inside, Journey to the Center of Love, and experience what really matters in a society saturated with the superficial, artificial and inconsequential.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Are you ready for God's supreme revelation A couple of years ago, after having served two decades as a pastor and writing seven books, author Todd Gaddis sensed a need for a bigger challenge. During that time, God kept bringing to his mind the Old Testament book Zechariah. And no wonder! Zechariah, the most Messianic, apocalyptic, and eschatological book in the entire Old Testament, writes more about Christ than all of the other Minor Prophets combined. Throughout the nine-month writing process, God reinforced for him these Kingdom truths: . Although God loves all people, His chosen ones, the Jews, are the 'apple of His eye.' Zechariah unveils the special plans, blessings, and ultimate restoration God has in store for Israel (of course, all believers will reap the harvest). . Satan and his henchmen may be wreaking havoc now, but their days are numbered. Zechariah gives us a glimpse of their ultimate defeat. . Jesus - Creator, Redeemer, Sustainer, and Victor is at the center of it all. Zechariah prophesies not only our Lord's arrival as God in the flesh on earth 2,000 years ago, but His impending Second Coming and subsequent millennial reign. Slowly, carefully, and prayerfully absorb the words inside. And as you do so, make sure you are personally prepared for the troubling yet triumphant times ahead.
