Have you ever asked how Gods knowledge of the future impacts your life today? Frustrating God offers a challenge to the assumptions of open theism and provides answers that are both refreshing and new. Theologians and laypeople alike have struggled with the extent Gods knowledge, the limitations of human free will, and the practical implications these ideas have for everyday life. Why doesnt God do something about all the evil in the world? Have you ever tried to answer the question about Gods goodness in light of the fact that people He created will be lost for all eternity? How can God answer prayers if He does not know and may not be able to anticipate the future consequences of those answers? How do we resolve the apparent conflict between human freedom and Gods overwhelming power? You can find the answer to these and many more questions in Frustrating God. In this challenge to the theological view of open theism, Pastor Luis Scott offers a radically new alternative to the seemingly tense relationship between Gods foreknowledge and human free will. This deepened understanding of Gods nature can enhance your perception of a God so magnificent that the only word to describe our struggle to know Him is frustrating. In Frustrating God you will begin a journey to a deeper knowledge of the mysterious God of the Biblethe God who baffles us, but loves us enough to lay the penalty of sin upon His beloved Son.

In Once Caught, No Escape, Norman Grubb's autobiography, we come to know a remarkable soldier of Christ, one who has made a unique contribution to Christian thinking in the 20th century. This riveting account of his life includes a fascinating description of missionary life in the early 1900's in the heart of Africa, his memories of World War I army days, and his little-known role in the development of the Christian Literature Crusade and Intervarsity Fellowship. Norman shares the three spiritual crises that shaped his life-his salvation, his identity in Christ, and his seeming loss of faith. How he forever settled his Galatians 2:20 identity by faith is critical to an understanding of his life and serve as a roadmap for all facing the same heart cry, and his interpretation of his final crisis is a superb and concise summary of what he came to call the total truth, expanded and developed in his later works and was to become the keystone of his theology for the rest of his life. In the foreword to Once Caught, No Escape, Norman says that he has written "straight out of my heart and mind," and that he has surely done. He writes with unreserved honesty, self-deprecating humor, and profound insight. He was a man drenched in the scriptures, and totally dedicated to sharing the great truth of Jesus Christ-our savior, indweller, and life. He laid down his life that many others might come to know who they are in Christ, and paid the intercessor's price to do so. The book is aptly titled, for once God "captured" him, Norman was driven to share the truth he knew, no matter the cost.

"Ehrlich’s insightful self-help guide will resonate with Christians wishing to streamline an overstuffed life."—Publishers Weekly Logically, we all know our purpose in life is not wrapped up in accumulating possessions, wealth, power, and prestige—Jesus is very clear about that—but society tells us otherwise. Christian Minimalism attempts to cut through our assumptions and society’s lies about what life should look like and invites readers into a life that Jesus calls us to live: one lived intentionally, free of physical, spiritual, and emotional clutter. Written by a woman who simplified her own life and practices these principles daily, this book gives readers a fresh perspective on how to live out God’s grace for us in new and exciting ways and live out our faith in a way that is deeply satisfying.

Many Christians believe that once they are saved and delivered, their lives will be free from frustration. But lets face it: frustration is a part of life. Even for Christians who have been delivered, there is frustration both before and after deliverance. And if we think we are free from frustration, then we wont have the tools, techniques, and coping skills to deal with it. In Dealing with Frustration Before & After Your Deliverance, author Edward A. Butler, Jr. shares his own frustrating experiences before and after deliverance. We tend to want the product without going through the process, and whether we are building a personal relationship with God, learning new spiritual habits, or starting a new ministry, we must understand that frustrations are commonplace during any journey toward greatness. Yet God never gives us more than we can handle, and through prayer and giving thanks, we can combat frustration and remain on the way. We will face frustrations every day, and it will be inevitable that we become frustrated in lifeeven after our deliverance. Frustration is a trick of the enemy, so if we turn to Gods guidance in the Bible, then we can learn how to trust in his will. In the end, frustration is part of the process that will get you to where youre supposed to begreatness and triumph with God.
