Bestselling author, cofounder of Girlfriends in God, and writer for Proverbs 31 Ministries Sharon Jaynes reveals the secret to living a better story: understanding that the worst parts of our past are the very things God uses most. Many people don't like the story God is writing in their lives. The mistakes, failures, tragedies, and circumstances outside of our control linger in our minds and hold us back. How do we come to grips with the pieces of our stories that we wish weren't there? How do we silence the pain of what has been done to us and the shame of what we've allowed to be done through us? In When You Don't Like Your Story, Bible teacher Sharon Jaynes shows us how God untangles our most painful emotions with the fingers of grace, putting his redemption on display. In the hardest parts of our narratives, we get to see God's greatest work--and this changes the ending of our stories. As we overcome shame, offer forgiveness, and use our stories to help others, we find freedom from the past and learn to live in the restoration of the present.

Jesus came to earth by way of the Holy Spirit being the father of the baby Mary carried; however, he lived his life as a son of man in order to identify with the tribulations of mankind. He truly was the Son of God and gave his life on the cross for all mankindaEUR(tm)s sins. The only way to the Father is through the Son. Jesus always spoke only that which was the will of the Father, and since God cannot lie, whatever the Father says through Christ is truth. Not a truth but the truth! Just as Jesus is not one of many ways, he is the one and only way.
