Book excerpt: In these never-before-published stories, sayings, and biblical teachings, the beloved author and translator of The Message Bible shows us how the wisdom of deep faith helps us live well. “Calming, encouraging, and profound.”—Matt Chandler, lead pastor of The Village Church “Jesus’ words bring us the news of an expanded world, a bright world, a full-dimensioned world, a world in which God rules, mercy is common experience, and love is the daily working agenda.” Eugene H. Peterson (1932–2018) was one of the most beloved authors, pastors, poets, and professors of our time. While millions have read his bestselling paraphrased Bible translation, The Message, far fewer have heard his direct practical insights and wisdom about how to live well. Eugene knew the extraordinary spirituality of ordinary life. He understood that we actually become more, not less, human as we grow to live like Jesus. And living like Jesus means living well. On Living Well collects some of Eugene’s best never-before-published short writings to help you walk in the way of Jesus with a little more courage, passion, and hope—by offering new ways to practice generosity, community, prayer, simplicity, worship, inner peace, and so much more . . . even with the challenges of today. This book is a rich feast for the soul, ideal as a daily spiritual touchpoint or simply to nourish a heart hungry for pastoral wisdom. It is your invitation to enter into the meaningful simplicity of life with Jesus in a world of immense beauty, real difficulty, and endless wonder.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Your Jesus Reality penned by author Erich Fuls presents that Jesus in Person came to reside in every born again believer. Jesus lives here on earth in believers to implement the words and works of Almighty God. The author grapples with these questions: Why does the world not see Christ fully alive in – and active through – Christians? Have Christians taken Christ out of Christianity? The book flags that Christianity is dead apart from Christ living in His people, and He Himself transforming the world through them. Readers will be challenged to discover, meditate and implement the truth that every believer is supposed to live from, through and to Jesus alive in them. The sharp shooting and compact style of the 60 essays and poems gives much food for reflection in every section without a long reading requirement. This book is for everyone who wishes to know why there is such a glaring discrepancy between what Jesus prepared and promised for all, and what one sees in Christian circles today. Furthermore, this book is for all Christians who are hungry to know and show Jesus in their everyday life, for real. Every Christian who is tired of a fake, self-based, religious and ritualistic Christianity and seeks revival in his own life will get much blessing from this book. Christians who want to live from, through and to Jesus Christ in Person here within them need to read this book. Faithfully following the Biblical teachings of this book will reveal God Jesus in Person in God’s children, and in action from within them.

Book excerpt: Are you ready to be human? Human. God. Two words that jar against each other and yet describe Jesus perfectly. Jesus was fully human and fully divine, which is extraordinary. But He was also ordinary in the most counterintuitive way: His life shows us what normal humanity is supposed to look like. Jesus came to earth to redeem humanity itself, and through Him, that redeemed humanity is available to us all. In Sneezing Jesus, Brian Hardin journeys through vivid Gospel stories, pointing to a revolutionary truth: If Jesus was a normal human living a normal human life, then His death and resurrection didn’t just save our souls—it saves our humanity here and now.

Book excerpt: This essential authorized biography of Eugene Peterson offers unique insights into the experiences and spiritual convictions of the iconic American pastor and beloved translator of The Message. “In the time of a generation-wide breakdown in trust with leaders in every sphere of society, Eugene’s quiet life of deep integrity and gospel purpose is a bright light against a dark backdrop.”—John Mark Comer, author of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry “This hunger for something radical—something so true that it burned in his bones—was a constant in Eugene’s life. His longing for God ignited a ferocity in his soul.” Encounter the multifaceted life of one of the most influential and creative pastors of the past half century with unforgettable stories of Eugene’s lifelong devotion to his craft and love of language, the influences and experiences that shaped his unquenchable faith, the inspiration for his decision to translate The Message, and his success and struggles as a pastor, husband, and father. Author Winn Collier was given exclusive access to Eugene and his materials for the production of this landmark work. Drawing from his friendship and expansive view of Peterson’s life, Collier offers an intimate, beautiful, and earthy look into a remarkable life. For Eugene, the gifts of life were inexhaustible: the glint of fading light over the lake; a kiss from his wife, Jan; a good joke; a bowl of butter pecan ice cream. As you enter into his story, you’ll find yourself doing the same—noticing how the most ordinary things shimmer with a new and unexpected beauty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whereas much of the current literature on pastoring stresses up-to-date training and new techniques stemming from the behavioral sciences, Eugene Peterson here calls for returning to an "old" resource--the Bible--as the basis for all of pastoral ministry. Originally published in 1980 and now being reprinted to meet continuing demand, Five Smooth Stones for Pastoral Work shows how five Old Testament books provide a solid foundation for much of what a pastor does: Prayer-Directing: Song of Songs Story-Making: Ruth Pain-Sharing: Lamentations Nay-Saying: Ecclesiastes Community-Building: Esther Pointing to the relevance of ancient wisdom, adapting Jewish religious tradition to contemporary pastoral practice, and affirming a significant link between pastoral work and the act of worship, this book opens up to pastors a wealth of valuable practical-theological insights.

Book excerpt: Living a Royal Reality is not about living a fairytale life or pretending that life is perfect. The fact is, for many of us, our reality has truly been scarred by our life's experiences and choices. This book was written to empower and enlighten women that through the blood of Jesus Christ, we are Royalties (co heirs with Christ, Daughters of the King, Chosen by God, Living by Grace). As Royalties, we have access and dominion over everything that JESUS CHRIST has dominion over, which includes our realities. These also include strongholds, fear, sickness, depression, brokenness, poverty, rape, abuse, abandonment etc. As women, these are only a few of the 'realities' we deal with daily. As Royalties, we have been given authority to live as more than conquerors, overcomers and true victors over these 'realities'. This book will enlighten and inspire you to: - Be the best you God has called you to be - Be confident in your true identity - Discover and know your worth - Live a purpose-driven life - Be set apart and adopt God's standards - Prepare for eternity

This book, which features a self-contained discussion guide for use with Life of Jesus DVD, will help you and your friends dig deeper into what is known about Jesus’ life and why it matters. “John Dickson has done a marvelous job of presenting the story of Jesus, and the full meaning of that story, in a way that is both deeply faithful to the biblical sources and refreshingly relevant to tomorrow's world and church. I strongly recommend this study to anyone who wants to re-examine the deep historical roots of Christian faith and to find them as life-giving as they ever were.”—Tom Wright

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Eugene Peterson maintains that how we read the Bible is as important as that we read it. The second volume of Peterson's momentous five-part work on spiritual theology, Eat This Book challenges us to read the Scriptures on their own terms, as God's revelation, and to live them as we read them. Countering the widespread practice of using the Bible for self-serving purposes, Peterson here serves readers with a nourishing entrée into the formative, life-changing art of spiritual reading." - from the back of the book.
