Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The joy that comes from a meaningful relationship is one of the richest blessings. Even so, there are people in every community who, for whatever reason, do and say difficult and destructive things-and the church community is no different. Confronting these difficult personalities and potentially damaging events becomes a very important task for our pastors and church leaders, but sadly many of our leaders are currently unable to cope effectively with such challenging, though regular, problems in the pastorate. In The Alexander Antidote: Turning Conflict into a Prescription of Wholeness for the Local Church, veteran pastor and advisor Dr. Thomas S. Warren II introduces a practical, Christ-centered process for proactively responding to conflict, building human relationships, and leading our churches and organizations back to health. Based on biblical principles and Warren's thirty-five-plus years as a pastor, The Alexander Antidote guides us from understanding the nature of conflict and our reactions to finding balance to finally working with and resolving the problem 'in Christ.' If you are ready to make a difference in the life of your church and allow the Lord to make an impact through you, then now is the time to set your mind and heart to the task of bringing health to the body of Christ whenever it is needed, even if it means dealing with conflict.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Someone has said that, 'Youth is not a matter of age, but rather, a state of mind.'. It is for that reason I have sought to write a book to be enjoyed by youth of all ages - from thirteen to one hundred! Some of us have just been 'young' longer than others! I have known some who were old at seventeen and others who stayed young in their eighties. My wife and I hope to stay young the rest of our lives, and one of the best ways we have found to keep a youthful view of life is to invest time with young people. Notice I said 'invest', not 'spend', as time with youth is an investment in the future, not something that is 'spent' and all gone. Over the years God has given us many opportunities to be with youth in several churches and in differing communities. We have always sought to accept all youth as persons, without always approving their actions. We have had many hours of fun and fellowship together, as well as those serious moments when great decisions have been made in the very presence of God. As they have been left free to be themselves - even with the freedom to make mistakes, they have grown at their own unique pace and in God's own time. May the reading of these pages help you to see real Christianity - not as a negative approach to life - but as a joyous celebration! To that end we open our hearts to share with you these personal vignettes which have formed our spiritual diary over the years. We have discovered together that truly there is . Fun in the Son.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - America is losing touch with her young African American male population. Parents are losing touch with sons, and sisters are losing touch with brothers. Why is this Why are adolescent black males becoming lost to their own self-destructive behaviors Most parents aren't going to like to hear it, but it's due to a lack of spirituality in upbringing. If a young man does not build his foundation on spirituality, he is left to build it on society. Dr. Thomas Page has spent much of his career studying and counseling the African American males of America. He has seen the devastation caused by a life without spirituality, and it is partially the fault of the parents. Parents force their children to get up and go to school every morning, and yet on Sunday they allow the children to choose whether they will go to be spiritually fed. This choice could lead to the children's downfall. When Love Is Not Enough calls for a return to the notion of spirituality as the center of the household. By identifying with spirituality, young men can avoid identifying with drugs, alcohol, and illegal activities. Children must be spiritually fed in order to become spiritually satiated adults. It's not too late. Turn back to the strong foundation of spirituality; your children will thank you for it.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - To the casual observer, the life of Derrick Anthony Garrett, the pastor of one of Atlanta's largest churches, seemed to be one overflowing with blessings and grace. But Pastor Garrett was not the loving man of God they thought they knew.He gave everything he had to his church and his duties, and that didn't leave anything for his family. He was so blinded by ambition that he couldn't see how his behavior was impacting the very people who helped him shine behind the pulpit. Life in the Garrett home was far from blessed, and he just refused to admit his part in his family's often violent life. But despite it all, his family members found the strength to help each other, even if they couldn't help the man himself battle his own demons. His wife and children were forced to dig deep within themselves, within their own faith, to find the courage and strength to go on. They did their best to live by Christian ideals, but his abuse made that a challenge. They struggled to create a sense of love and harmony in their home, but most of all, it was forgiveness that they prayed for. Forgiveness for the actions of the man who was the head of both their church and their family proved harder than they might have imagined, but they did not give up. It would take understanding and most of all forgiveness to restore their fellowship. But they first had to be willing to forgive.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A must-read, it is clear and complete for those contemplating marriage for the first time. It is very informative and discusses the important factors of having a blessed and meaningful marriage. It challenges one's thinking in a blunt way.' -Tracy Taylor'I have been married since April, 1973, and wish I had read an insightful book like this. It's a comprehensive yet concise focus of an important and complicated subject. A book of candor, practicality, and precision. I'll be recommending it to both of my children and anyone I know who is planning to get married.' -Myra Tucker'The book is powerful, profound, and comprehensive. It connects the history of marriage with the current institution we have inherited. It is well documented that half of all marriages may end in divorce, but love still prevails.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The name of my book will be Why Women Weep.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Have you ever pondered the problem of being as 'we know it' Our knowledge is extremely limited, and what is unknown at one moment in history may become known in the next, causing the body of knowledge to be constantly changing along the path of human development. While we are all on a brief journey that begins at birth and ends in death, this current state of being does not preclude the possibility of another state of being presently unknown. The Pathway Beyond addresses the issues surrounding this question, bringing together the scientific and the spiritual. The study of philosophy and religion has been part of human activity for thousands of years. Even so, our society seems not to have reaped the full benefit of the positive values set forth by our philosophers and spiritual leaders. Instead, the growth of science in solving immediate practical problems has consumed our interest. Now, however, scientists are developing an interest in topics that have traditionally been solely within the boundaries of philosophy and religion, such as human consciousness. The subject of ontology, or the science of being, seems to be expanding its influence within human thought. Aimed at laypeople as well as academics, The Pathway Beyond explores ideas from Eastern and Western spiritual leaders to illustrate the connections between science and religion.…
