Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bookwi.se's Favorite Books of the Year "Only God deserves absolute surrender because only God can offer absolutely dependable love." In our self-reliant era, most of us recoil from the concept of surrendering to a power or authority outside ourselves. But surrender need not be seen as threatening, especially when the One to whom we surrender is the epitome of goodness and love. God doesn't want his people to respond to him out of fear or obligation. Rather, he invites us to enter into an authentic relationship of intimacy and devotion. And so God calls us to move beyond mere obedience—by surrendering to love. In this profound book, David G. Benner explores the twin themes of love and surrender as the heart of Christian spirituality. Through careful examination of Scripture and reflection on the Christian tradition, Benner shows how God bids us to trust fully in his perfect love. God is love, and he intends for you to live in his love. Surrender to Love will lead you to an unexpected place, where yieldedness to God frees you to become who he created you to be. This expanded edition, one of three titles in The Spiritual Journey trilogy, includes a new epilogue and an experiential guide with questions for individual reflection or group discussion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Eleanor Pfaehler and I met, we stood on opposite sides of an invisible, and seemingly insurmountable, wall," Sheila Walsh writes. "Eleanor and I talked over this wall. At times we reached up to hug. But the wall was always there. "Then Eleanor was diagnosed with liver cancer. Finally, by the grace and mercy of God alone, the wall came crashing down. Eleanor and I found ourselves swimming in the river of mercy with our arms around each other, holding each other, willing to give our lives for each other." Unexpected Grace is a tender account of the relationship between a mother and daughter-in-law and how they discovered extravagant grace in the midst of what could have been the most tragic experience of their lives. Their story will encourage you and help you see how God can bring good out of even the bleakest circumstances. Previously published as Stories from the River of Mercy.

Book excerpt: Life is a journey filled with twists and turns, highs and lows, moments of joy and seasons of sorrow. Along the way, we encounter moments that leave us breathless with wonder and awe, as well as moments that leave us shattered and bewildered. It is in these moments of disappointment and disillusionment that we are faced with a choice - to succumb to despair or to rise with resilience. In this book, "Embracing Divine Appointments," we embark on a journey of exploration and discovery into the depths of the human experience. Guided by the wisdom and insight of Lysa TerKeurst, we delve into the heart of disappointment, uncovering its transformative power and its potential to lead us closer to the divine. Through poignant stories, practical wisdom, and profound insights, we learn to navigate the turbulent waters of disappointment with grace and courage. We come to understand that disappointment is not the end of the road, but rather a doorway to growth and renewal. It is through our struggles and setbacks that we are refined, that we discover the depth of our resilience and the boundlessness of our faith. Throughout these pages, we will journey together through the valleys of grief and loss, the wilderness of doubt and questioning, and the storms of uncertainty and fear. Yet, amidst the darkness, we will discover rays of hope shining through, illuminating the path ahead and guiding us toward a brighter tomorrow. Together, we will learn to embrace disappointment as a divine appointment - a sacred invitation to encounter God in the midst of life's unexpected turns. We will discover that even in our darkest moments, we are never alone, for the divine presence is with us, guiding us, sustaining us, and leading us toward a future filled with hope and promise. So, dear reader, I invite you to embark on this journey with an open heart and a willing spirit. May these pages be a source of comfort and encouragement to you as you navigate the ups and downs of life's journey. May you find strength and solace in the midst of disappointment, and may you emerge from the darkness with a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper faith in the goodness of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Unexpected Grace Bill Kramer offers a rare look into the human side of the world of scientific research. He goes behind the scenes of four scientific investigations on diverse aspects of the study of unlimited love and offers uplifting portraits of human beings struggling to understand and improve the complex issues facing them. He explores the dynamics between the researchers, the subjects they study, and the participants in the studies, and eloquently tells their personal stories. The stories touch on vastly different social and human issues, but all are connected by love. The first is the story of Courtney Cowart, who was part of a group of theologians who met at Trinity Place in lower Manhattan on September 11, 2001, not knowing her experience would become the subject of a study. The story of how the group struggled to survive and the formation of a practical, effective altruistic community is heartrending and inspiring. This is followed by a description of a University of California Santa Cruz psychology department study on the dynamics of friendship and prejudice that completely changed the perceptions of those involved. The third study, from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, focused on the benefits of religion on mental and physical health, which led its researcher to a greater understanding of forgiveness, humility, and grace. The final powerful story is about a physiology of love study conducted in Iowa City. Here, a functional MRI is the vehicle for measuring empathy and brings the researcher to wonder, "Is there a point at which empathy shuts down and we turn away?" Ultimately she comes to recognize that past experiences influences our ability to respond emphatically. Each story candidly unveils the transformations the researchers and their subjects experienced in the course of their work. This illuminating book, with its unique insights, will appeal to educators, researchers, students, study participants, and everyone who wonders what goes on behind the scenes of investigative studies.

Book excerpt: A diaconal minister, author, and creative artist, Roela Victoria Rivera became legally blind in 2004, two years after she had severe illness that left her in a coma for three days and led her to a near-death experience (NDE) which allowed her to see the glory and beauty of heaven. While undergoing eight eye surgeries over a period of eight years, she felt her faith and trust fading away for awhile. However, her deep faith in GOD and fervent prayers have strengthened her belief that GOD has never left her side and is leading her each day with new meaningful plan and purpose for her life. GOD has blessed Roela to see glimpses of heave at three points in her life: when she was ten years old, at age eighteen, and in mid-life which guided her with wisdom and strength, courage and creative power to write this inspirational book with divine guidance from GOD, holy light from Jesus, and inspiration from the Holy Spirit. She will help you see glimpses of heave in many different ways in everyday life. She also wishes to share her creative artworks and the great Lessons of Life she learned from her heavenly visions and from the Scripture. She continues her ministry for GOD's glory through her GraceNotes Creative Ministry and inspirational items she designs to share GOD's Words of love and grace. Roela's physical and spiritual journey is an inspiration to everyone who reads about it in this book. We hope you find it so.
