“God, if you’re real, make yourself real to me.” Each of us spends our lives on a journey toward God. Yet often our most deeply felt longings—for meaning, for love, for significance—end up leading us away from, instead of toward, our Creator and the person he made us to be. Finding Your Way Back to God shows you how to understand and listen to your longings in a whole new way. It’s about waking up to who you really are, and daring to believe that God wants to be found even more than you want to find him. It’s about making the biggest wager of your life as you ask God to make himself known to you. And it’s about watching what happens next.

A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.

No one shapes our heritage or affects our legacy like our mother. Most people know Leonard Sweet, one of the world’s most influential evangelicals, as a sharp cultural critic who helps us see how to get in front of the future rather than be bowled over by it. One of his greatest influences was his mother, a groundbreaking (and sometimes controversial) minister who defied convention while honoring tradition. In this exceptionally personal work, Len Sweet opens his mother’s memory box, and in the process he helps us all embrace the future with confidence while tethering us to a faith that transcends time. Through Len’s experience, we all will better understand and process how our own heritage affects our legacy. An ideal resource for mothers, adult children, and families seeking resources to set up their kids to flourish.

"Holiness is not at all about what you see, but it is, instead, all about what you do not see. Show me a Christian who has lost his fear of making himself of no reputation among the religious people so that he can love the lost with his life, and I will show you a very powerful and dangerous man." In THE WAY BACK HOME a very detailed description of personal holiness is provided so that every Christian can clearly understand just what holiness is - and what it is not. Dennis Chamberland traces the application of holiness all the way back to its scriptural origins. He also warns the reader in a careful, cautionary note of the recent historic misadventures into what holiness should never become. THE WAY BACK HOME is developed as a personal journey into this most necessary, but widely misunderstood aspect of every believer's life. This book is a six week prayer and spiritual journal that gives every reader, regardless of their present spiritual condition, the opportunity to make personal holiness an individual journey. Christians either live courageous lives or they compromise to make everyone happy. Oft called "extremists" by the secular culture, real Christians are forced to make the choice - conciliation or become minimalized and isolated. This is a manual for the committed Christian who dares to uncompromisingly serve Christ and at the same time achieve true unilateral love for everyone else with the same fervor they love the Master. It is a chart down the long and sometime tearful highway called life. It is a book only for the truly faithful. It is a manual that leads the way to the only viable option: brilliant success.

Volume One: 8/7/24 This is my ongoing testimony and will be written in volumes (in a diary/memoir style). This is a very personal story and it may get a little rambly or repetitive. I may have typos, bad grammar, and other literary mistakes. That's okay because I'm not perfect and this is not meant to be a classical masterpiece. I'm not a preacher, pastor, or anything in between. I'm simply a woman who wants to find my way back to God. Fair warning I am Catholic and my journey involves the Blessed Mother.

The WAY Back: If you have walked away from Jesus, if you are struggling to find your way back to Him after going your own way, or just trying to stay the course; you will encounter an army of different forces stemming from the world, the devil; and yes, even your own self that fight to keep you from Him. But, there is a grace, a peace, an abundant joy, and victory waiting for us to merely take hold of It and experience the power over those evil forces we have been given. Yes, the Word of God, the Bible. The WAY Back looks at many of those evil forces that fight against us and the pitfalls and tricks that are used to keep us from returning to the One who died to save us. It will also look at how to apply the Word of God in our lives that we might enjoy the victory over those forces that seek to destroy us. "Brethren, I do not regard myself as laying hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead." (Phil. 3:13)

What you believe about God sets the foundation of the person you will become. In God Has a Name, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer invites you to rethink many of the prevalent myths and misconceptions about God and weigh them against what God actually tells us about himself. After all, what you believe about God will ultimately shape the type of person you become. We all live at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is many of our ideas about God are wrong. Not all wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways. God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself in the Bible. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including: Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him? What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires? What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine? No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, God Has a Name invites you to step into a fresh and biblically rooted vision of who God is that has the potential to alter your life with God and shape who you become.
