Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The hour in which we live in this current world demands that the church comes together in unity according to scripture being led by the Holy Spirit. While I was at Promise Keepers I heard a statement quoted by Henry Blackaby that said If society seems to be getting darker, there's nothing wrong with the darkness, its acting like its nature. The problem is with the light, the light is not shining as it should. Jesus said we are the light of the world and to let your light shine before men that they may see your good works, and glorify our Father which is in heaven. In 1831 Alexus de Tocuqueville visited the United States. He was a French Judge and Political Writer. He became so impressed with what he saw that he went home to Europe and wrote Democracy In America, one of the most definitive studies on the American culture and constitutional systems that had been published up to that point. In America he noted, the clergy remain politically separated from the government but nevertheless provide a moral stability among the people, which permits the government to prosper. In other words, there is a separation of church and state but not God and a separation between religion (God) and state. In one of de Tocqueville's most frequently quoted passages, he wrote: I sought for the greatness and genius of America in her commodious harbors and her ample rivers, and it was not there; in her fertile fields and boundless prairies, and it was not there; in her rich minds and her vast commerce, and it was not there. Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because she is good and if America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great. God will not judge any President for the condition of our nation, but he will judge the church. We can't bridge this Gap fast enough.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. It has been a great privilege for me to join hands with Lifeline Global Ministries. I'll never forget my first experience at Angola State Prison when a large group of men was honored for completing the yearlong, Malachi Dads program. I was also deeply honored to present my Life Essentials Study Bible to each graduate and be able to spend some time training them to use it. Frankly, it was a life-changing experience. Since then, the opportunities have only multiplied. From Florida to California and beyond, men and women in a multitude of prisons are not only being redeemed through their faith in Jesus Christ, but they are growing and maturing in Christ because of Lifeline Global Ministries. You'll learn more about this ministry in Finding Your Pace but even more significant, you'll learn what it really means to enter and follow the narrow path that leads to life eternal. You will also immensely enjoy Romney's athletic metaphors and similar biblical examples. The Apostle Paul loved to illustrate biblical truth with these illustrations even when facing death. Thus, he wrote, I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith (2 Timothy 4:7). Dr. Gene A. Getz Professor, Pastor, Author.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Blue Sweater is the inspiring story of a woman who left a career in international banking to spend her life on a quest to understand global poverty and find powerful new ways of tackling it. It all started back home in Virginia, with the blue sweater, a gift that quickly became her prized possession-until the day she outgrew it and gave it away to Goodwill. Eleven years later in Africa, she spotted a young boy wearing that very sweater, with her name still on the tag inside. That the sweater had made its trek all the way to Rwanda was ample evidence, she thought, of how we are all connected, how our actions-and inaction-touch people every day across the globe, people we may never know or meet. From her first stumbling efforts as a young idealist venturing forth in Africa to the creation of the trailblazing organization she runs today, Novogratz tells gripping stories with unforgettable characters-women dancing in a Nairobi slum, unwed mothers starting a bakery, courageous survivors of the Rwandan genocide, entrepreneurs building services for the poor against impossible odds. She shows, in ways both hilarious and heartbreaking, how traditional charity often fails, but how a new form of philanthropic investing called "patient capital" can help make people self-sufficient and can change millions of lives. More than just an autobiography or a how-to guide to addressing poverty, The Blue Sweater is a call to action that challenges us to grant dignity to the poor and to rethink our engagement with the world.…
