Broken things do not need to stay broken. They can be restored—and people are no different. A person’s soul can experience brokenness from relationships, personal loss, or various experiences. The pain is real, but it doesn’t need to stay that way. At its core, Restoring God presents stories of testimony from broken people whom God made whole again. Every person can be renewed and can find hope once more. We can travel the path to restoration using the compass of the Restoring God. There are elements that lead to restoration, such as faith, hope, patience, and perseverance. These elements, supported by author Brian Goodwin’s personal narrative and stories from the Bible, help the path to become clearer. Restoration involves revival through repair—finding our true identity through the one who created us with purpose and choosing to live according to God’s values and guidance. With God’s help, you can find hope and healing to be made whole once more. This inspirational guide explores the elements needed for restoration from God and shares one man’s personal journey to restoration.

A thief has quietly crept into our churches. This thief has robbed us blind and most of us do not even realize it. Most of what our Lord wants for us has been taken from us by a "spirit of religion". This spirit has caused us to become a self-centered, flesh-serving institution instead of the life-giving, hope-building, Christ-filled Body that Jesus wants to build. Our only hope of reconnecting with our Lord and the culture around us is to return to the Lord Himself. He will build His own Church, with much less help from us than we realize. This book shows the power of restoring the Church by restoring the intimacy of relationship with our Lord and then with the people God has put into our lives.

Through inspiring real-life stories of justice, mercy, love, and forgiveness in our midst, Smith and Stonestreet present a God who is intimately involved in his creation and using his church to work out the redemption of this world.

For many people, remaining optimistic and feeling positive about themselves and their lives is a constant battle—especially when circumstances are difficult and life is hard. For others, negativity is something that only sneaks up from time to time, yet still wreaks havoc in their hearts. Regardless of the root causes, once pessimistic thoughts permeate our minds, our feelings and emotions begin to control us instead of us controlling them. Eventually it doesn’t seem possible to stay positive, happy, and full of joy, and negative thought patterns shake our faith, causing us to sink emotionally, mentally, and spiritually over time. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Despite what storms roll in, hearts anchored in God don’t sink. When we change the way we think, we can change the way we feel and live, even if our circumstances remain the same. Intentionally embracing the opportunity to experience a transformed heart and a renewed mind opens the door for a changed life, because a positive mind will always lead to a more positive life. In Unsinkable Faith, author and Proverbs 31 Ministries speaker Tracie Miles offers hope for women who struggle with negativity. Each chapter explores Tracie’s and other women’s personal stories, showing how they rose above their circumstances by transforming and renewing their minds. Unsinkable Faith is a breath of fresh air for anyone longing for a heart full of joy, an unbreakable smile, and a new, more optimistic perspective on life. This book will equip you to: Replace pessimism with positive thinking by becoming the captain of your thoughts; Learn how true joy and happiness are based on choice, not circumstances; Overcome unhealthy habits of negative thinking by intentionally implementing three easy mind-renewing steps; Stop feeling hopeless and pitiful, and start feeling hope-filled and powerful instead; and Discover that when you change the way you think, you change the way feel, and in turn you can change your life completely.

God is greatly concerned about His Church. I am writing, not out of a desire to write books, but because God shared His heart with me and His concern. This book came from several dreams I had over a one-year period. I believe the Body of Christ is being called to repent, to rebuild God's Church, and become the bride that His Son Jesus will come to receive, "without spot or wrinkle." It is time for churches around the world to arise, shake off the sin and ways of the world, and move in power to raise up God's Church and be like Jesus: "be about our Father's business." I have one book in print, The Way of Escape from the Darkness, printed by Christian Faith Publishing in Meadville, Pennsylvania. The book was released in December 2022. This is a good preparatory writing to read before this new book.

Believers, who have come to the one True God through faith in Yeshua (Jesus), have been grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel. Through the prophet Ezekiel, God told that He Himself would come and rescue His lost sheep and set one shepherd over them. When Yeshua came, He declared that He was that Good Shepherd and He had other sheep who were not Jewish; they must be brought into the fold also. This uniting of Jew and Gentile together in one Body is called the One New Man. Non-Jewish Believers have been kept separated from their Jewish Brothers for the past 1800 years. Much rich heritage was lost to the non-Jewish part of Messiah's Body. Yet God said that Messiah will be retained in Heaven until the complete restoration of everything He had spoken through the prophets was accomplished. It is the purpose of this book to restore the Body of Messiah to the understanding of the Jewish roots of their faith. May we be the answer to Yeshua's prayer that all who believe would become One in Him. DeeAnna Koven was born again at age five through the ministry of Jewish Evangelist Hyman Appelman. She began teaching in Sunday School at age 12, and continued throughout her life in churches and Messianic congregations. After Bible college and the Child Evangelism Fellowship Training Institute, she trained teachers in CEF, taught in a private church school, tutored missionary children in Spain, and taught in a Hebrew academy at Temple Aron HaKodesh in Lauderdale Lakes, FL, where she met and married Jack, her late husband of 28 years. This is her first published book.
