Stanley Thomas Nelson, 2001 Pastor Charles Stanley's Christian Living I have attended a few of Charles Stanley's program tapings in Atlanta, GA at the First Baptist Church of Atlanta. I have also enjoyed his programs on television as well as reading some of his books. If you are wanting a reading that will put things into plain english then this book is for you. Charles Stanley is an ordained Baptist Pastor yet he does not really preach to you. To me he is more ...             Club Sandwich: Goes Great With Chicken Soup : A Collection of Best-Loved Stories13 reviews Jess Moody B&H Publishing Group, 1999 I'll Have Seconds Club Sandwich is so good, you'll be asking for seconds. Jess Moody is a masterful storyteller with a message of faith, hope and humor. You can tell he's related to Will Rogers, Jr. because he got the "story-telling" gene that captures audiences with rememberances of the rich and famous and common folk. My husband and I have been reading Club Sandwich as a morning devotional and it's a wonderful ...             Things Pondered: From the Heart of a Lesser Woman19 reviews Beth Moore Broadman & Holman Publishers, 1997 It's the heart of Beth Moore If you love Beth Moore, you will not only have a compilation of some of the wonderful personal writings she has shared in her studies, but you will also learn more about Beth and the challenges she has faced in her life that has made her the inspired woman of God that she is today.

No matter the religious beliefs of your friend, he or she will find Babb's writing witty and entertaining. But the nuggets of Christian truth are written in a non-threatening way that can foster conversation on to something deeper.             Breaking Free: Making Liberty in Christ a Reality in Life38 reviews Beth Moore B&H Publishing Group, 2000 I went through this class at the church I was attending and I loved it! I would like to do it again now that 2 years have passed. Awesome workbook and book.             Tracks of a Fellow Struggler: Living and Growing through Grief15 reviews John R. Claypool Morehouse Publishing, 2004 So much help I lost my husband in November 2005,even as I write this it doesn't seem possible. I was given all the books on being a widow and all the platitudes about being in a better place,he's whole, he's happy....I didn't care, he wasn't here. Then I read this little book...John Claypool didn't need 200 pages to tell me what I needed to know...it was alright to question God, I didn't need to accept that ...             Jerry Falwell: His Life and Legacy13 reviews Macel Falwell Howard Books, 2008 An informative book, and also a very uplifting one Rev. Jerry Falwell was one of the larger-than-life people who seemed to dominate the U.S. in the 1980s. Many loved him, and some hated him with a vitriol that surpassed reason. In this biography of Rev. Falwell, his loving wife tells the tale of his life from his birth, through his youth to his conversion, through the many controversies of the 1980s and 90s, and through his death in his office. ...             Strength to love (Pocket books)17 reviews Martin Luther King Pocket Books, 1968 Life changing Timeless. As relevant now as what it was when it was written. Addresses the issues of hate and indifference and argues that the solution is love. Love does sound all too simplistic but it is one of the hardest things to face but its rewards are beyond words.             I Am Not, But I Know I Am: Welcome to the Story of God (Unabridged)20 reviews Louie Giglio audible.com Gives you a little perspective... I heard Louie speak at a Passion conference and decided to check out his books, and this one was excellent. I liked it better than The Air I Breathe, but they are definitely on different topics. This book focuses on humility in the truest sense, coming to know who we are in relation to God. Louie does an excellent job of going through examples of how we try to make our story the center of ...             Vanya. (New Leaf Library)14 reviews Myrna Grant Creation House, 1975 Serving God and country in the Soviet Army Vanya was a young man drafted into the Soviet Army in 1970. He had been a believer for only two years, but during that time he had internalized the Scriptures, even though he didn't even own a Bible. His first priority upon arriving in the Ukraine for Basic Training was to find a private place to pray each morning. Thus before he had been in the Army for a week he was already in trouble for his ...             A Knock at Midnight: Inspiration from the Great Sermons of Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.13 reviews Martin Luther King Jr. Hachette Audio, 1998 Deep and moving It's hard to believe Martin Luther King was 39 when he died. His eloquence can be heard in his famous speeches but the fullness of who he was, his spiritual depth, can only be heard in his sermons. These CDs are inspiring and profoundly moving. He is one of the greatest American preachers of all time and the greatest in the twentieth century.             First We Have Coffee11 reviews Margaret Jensen Harvest House Publishers, 1995 Strong Biblically based role model for wives I was surprised by how attractive biblical marriage is portrayed within the pages of this encouraging little book. This is not about how to have a happy marriage/family life when both partners are 'wonderful'. This is the life-story of a woman who applied God's truths to her life and trusted in the Lord for the outcome. Her husband didn't suddenly turn into the romantic white knight she may ...             The Mind of Christ: The Transforming Power of Thinking His Thoughts10 reviews T. W. Hunt Broadman & Holman Pub, 1995 This Book Is On My Most-Recommended List Like other reviewers, my copy of The Mind of Christ has been highlighted so many times, the pages look like they are in technicolor. Which is appropriate for how enlightening I found this book. T. W. Hunt uses examples from the lives of real people (including himself) to illustrate the life-changing principles taught, and lived, by Jesus. It helped me unlock not just the power of prayer, but ...             Dreaming Me: An African-American Woman's Buddhist Journey12 reviews Janice Dean Willis Riverhead Hardcover, 2001 Universal Dreaming This book was read in one marathon session that flew by all too quickly. It spoke to the very core of my being. Having this story told in such a personal way deftly teaches the reader at every level. It's well written and one could easily be fooled that they are simply being entertained with a good read. There were many moments where I felt stunned with deep recognition of a life experience ...             Feathers from My Nest: A Mother's Reflections11 reviews Beth Moore Broadman & Holman Publishers, 2001 Perfect for any woman! I read Beth Moore's book after experiencing two miscarriages and trying to get pregnant for the third time. Her Godly approach to motherhood made me realize that God gives us children as gifts and blessings - regardless if it is for a few months in utero or for decades on earth! She gives a personalized insight on how to try to raise children to love Christ - in a world that often makes that ...             A Picture Book of Martin Luther King, Jr (Picture Book Biography)10 reviews David A. Adler Holiday House, 1989 My daughter loves this book My five-year-old daughter was fascinated with this book even though it didn't include fairies, animals, or dinosaurs. I was very happy with the information they presented which gives some basic information about Dr. King while not treating his death in such a way that might overly upset sensitive children like mine. The illustrations are wonderfully done and my daughter looked them over carefully ...             All of grace (Summit Books)11 reviews C. H Spurgeon Baker Book House, 1976 A true classic of Christian literature Charles Haddon Spurgeon is considered by many to be the greatest preacher of the 19th century. This book, subtitled, "An Earnest Word with Those Who Are Seeking Salvation by the Lord Jesus Christ," is Spurgeon's great explanation of salvation and God's grace. He explains what God has done and why, and what we must do to be saved and to persevere in the faith. This is a great book, showing the ...             We've Come This Far: Abyssinian Baptist Church10 reviews Robert Gore Stewart, Tabori and Chang, 2001 Absolutely Stunning Work I've never been to New York, and I've never been to a black Baptist church. But the spirit of this institution- its leaders and worshippers- absolutely radiate off the pages of this book. It is unbelievably inspiring. It would make an excellent gift for any liberal Christian activist you know, for a pastor or clergy member working hard to integrate the church into the community, or for ...             Jesus & the Sweet Pilgrim Baptist Church9 reviews Clayton Sullivan Doubleday, 1993 Hilarious -- and Bitter-Sweet This book made me laugh out loud more times than I can count. And in the end it made me cry because the writer was so absolutely right! Unfortunately, I lent my copy to a friend who lent it to a friend -- and now no one knows where it is. I want it back because it's the kind of book you read over and over, and catch new levels of meaning in each reading...and you can finish it in one sitting ...             History: Fiction or Science? Chronology 2 (Chronology)9 reviews Anatoly Fomenko Delamere Resources LLC, 2005 Prescient St Augustine? We can so far divide the New Chronology into the following three parts: a) The verifiable theory that proves consensual chronology wrong with the aid of astronomy, statistics and mathematics; b) The new chronology hypothesis based on a new understanding of known historical facts and the most likely logical explanation of the most obvious inconsistencies inherent in the official version of ...              search for books abyssinian, african-american, american, best-loved, biblical, biography, breaking, buddhist, bullfrog, christian, chronology, collection, dreaming, feathers, handbook, insightful, inspiration, jeremiah, midnight, pondered, questions, reflections, reverend, sandwich, strength, struggler, thinking, thoughts, transforming, unabridged books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
