Memories can grow dim and become lost over time. Through his prophets and apostles God called on his people to remember his works and not let their memories of his faithfulness fade away. This book is one family’s account of God’s faithfulness in their lives, from childhood to advanced age, through joy and deep grief, blessing and rejection, while living with the challenges of ordinary life in the U.S. and in Thailand. It gives chronological examples of God’s faithfulness that show how his continuing care and faithfulness strengthened their faith, even in the darkest valleys.

Every Christian should have a story of faith to tell. When we take time to recognize God’s hand in our everyday lives, our stories of faith will write themselves. Within the pages of this book you will be inspired to: Spend time daily reading God’s Word. Spend time daily pouring out your heart to the only one who can move heaven and earth to meet your specific needs. Spend time daily anticipating the Good Shepherd to lead you in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Start recording your own stories of faith to pass on as a legacy to the next generation. Sometimes we believers carry a false sense of failure, thinking we are simply not doing enough for the Lord. What we often fail to remember is it is not what we do for the Lord that grows our faith, but what we allow Him to do for us and through us. The first mindset causes us to focus on ourselves and fuels our desire for the recognition and accolades only the Lord deserves. The second mindset gives glory where glory is due. God is to be glorified in our lives every day. May you be encouraged.

Yesterday's stones of remembrance remind us of today's good and faithful God.Today's Christian community has forgotten the art of remembrance, and, consequently, forfeited the blessings that follow it. Perhaps you too feel the heaviness of this void in your own life. Perhaps you too are left longing for the blessings you were created to experience through spiritual recollection. In Joshua 4, God commands the Israelites to collect twelve stones with which to remember His mighty, miraculous hand. Each time they saw those stones, they were reminded of their God, their identity, their source of strength, and their God's ability to move once again on their behalf.As we face the trials and struggles of today, it is imperative that we too collect our own spiritual stones that we might be reminded of this truth: The God who moved at one point in time is still able to move in the present moment. In These Twelve Stones, a crossover between the Christian living and memoir genres, Rachel?Walks readers through what the Bible has to say about remembrance ?Teaches Christ followers of all ages how they can collect and utilize their own stones ?Relives twelve of her personal stones ?Recounts God's faithfulness throughout her own lifeJoin along in a journey towards Biblical remembrance's restoration packed with candid stories, encouragement, challenge, and truth.

Have you taken time to think about the past and what God has done in your life? The Bible contains a special story that clearly demonstrates the importance of remembering. It is found in the book of Joshua. The story involves a great victory, deliverance, and the placing of twelve stones in a pile as a memorial that became known as Stones of Remembrance. "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." This familiar quote, by George Santayana, tells us the importance of learning from the lessons of the past. Equally important is the discovery of the richness found in generational blessings and heritage. The connecting of generations and the sharing of love gives meaning to life. I invite you to share in my life story and testimony about personal stones of remembrance. It is my prayer that you will learn from the Scriptures contained within why remembering God's faithfulness, goodness, and mercy are important keys to future victory. "Gene Garrick has taught the Body of Christ about "stones of remembrances" for some time. Now he has put those nuggets into this book. I have been blessed by his ministry over the years. I think you will be also by reading what's on his heart about learning from the past." Quin Sherrer, co-author of Lord, I Need Your Healing Power and 28 additional books. Gene Garrick is the founder of Walk The Way Ministries in Columbus, Mississippi, and Waukaway Springs Christian Retreat Center near Laurel, Mississippi. He has been a businessman for 35 years and is an ordained minister. He leads retreats and speaks to churches and groups throughout the Southeast. He can be contacted at [email protected].

Are the demands of motherhood keeping you from a rich relationship with God? Given the inherent busyness of being a parent, the concept of a “contemplative mom” makes many people laugh. When Ann Kroeker’s husband almost died, she realized that her life had gotten out of control. In this book she passes on to others what she learned in the process of getting her life back in perspective. She discusses some ways moms can live a life filled with reflective moments even in chaos, including finding solitude, walking with God, making use of some of the traditional spiritual disciplines, using the senses, and listening to God. This is not a theological treatise but one woman’s thoughts from the trenches.

During times of despair, we often feel alone, like we are the only ones going through a horrific trial. It is at this specific time, when life has us in a chokehold, that we look to God and find that we are not the only ones in this predicament and that he is right there with us. We need something to remind us of how we got over it the last time, perhaps a journal, a Scripture, or a special song to refer to in times of distress. These are stones of remembrance that will enable you to quiet the storms of life and control them instead of letting them control you. This book is the basket of stones that helped me remember how I made it through and who helped me. I pray that this book will encourage readers to gather their stones and put them into a basket they can hold on to so they can remember how they overcame it the last time. And when you see someone else going through a storm, show them your basket that they, too, may find peace.

There is a bell that hangs on the wall in the chemo room. Patients get to ring this bell when all their rounds of chemo are completed. They ring the bell with such glee and joy. Chemo is finished, and life can carry on. I hate that bell. I know that sounds foolish, but I really, really, really hate that bell. The doctors told me the second time my breast cancer returned that it had metastasized to my bones and lymph system and so it was incurable. I will never get to ring it unless God chooses to do a miracle. Instead I sit in the chemo room and stare at the bell and smile when others ring it. Some days I want to take the bell and throw it out the closest window, and other times it takes all I have to not go up and ring it and ring it some more. I am not sure if I would be ringing it in hope or defiance. Such foolishness, but I hate hearing that bell ring. I smile, cheer, and clap when someone else rings the bell, but inside I hurt. The bell makes me angry, and I sit and ask God why. Why not me? Why? I am sure that everyone can relate to something in their life they have wanted to do so badly but cant. It may be a foolish desire, but it is part of who we are.

Celtic traditions point to God in the natural elements in this refreshing take on how to pray. Where is God when we pray? Artist and priest Ruth Pattison looks to the legacy of Celtic spirituality to say God is in all of creation that surrounds us—earth, fire, water, air—and not up in the clouds. She invites the reader into a grounded spirituality rooted deep in Celtic tradition that sees everything as infused with the Spirit—including humanity. The material will deepen the experience of worship with creative hands-on spiritual practices for the context of liturgy. It can also be used for creating the structure and substance of retreats, spiritual formation classes, and for helping parents who want to learn to pray with children.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
