Finding Faith---A Search for What Makes Sense

Autor: Brian D. Mclaren

Número de Páginas: 194

Does having faith mean abandoning reason? It's easy to get that impression. Still, it seems reasonable that a supremely intelligent God would want you to use your God-given intellect on your spiritual journey as much as in any other aspect of your life. Faith may not stand on rational thinking alone, but a solid faith should walk hand in hand with intellectual integrity. Does it really matter what I believe? What is the relationship between faith and knowledge? Why are there so many religions? Do all paths lead to the same God? This book helps you sort through the questions, objections, and concerns you can't help but raise. A Search for What Makes Sense will help you think your way clearly and honestly to answers that satisfy because they're your answers--conclusions you've arrived at personally without manipulation, coercion, or game-playing. For faith to exist and grow it's got to make sense--good sense, carefully-thought-out sense. And chances are it does. FINDING FAITH The Finding Faith books A Search for What Makes Sense and A Search for What Is Real don't try to tell you what to believe; they are guides in learning how to believe. If you think the spiritual journey requires ...

Finding Faith---A Search for What Is Real

Autor: Brian D. Mclaren

Número de Páginas: 194

There have been times when you've felt that if there isn't a God, there ought to be. Swept up in the mystery of the night sky, you've felt the closeness of its designer. Nature's extravagant diversity, unfolding in living color, has made you long to know the artist who dreamed it all up. Imagine what that might be like--to actually know God in a way that fills your heart and whispers tremendous value and purpose to something deep within you. But how can you experience a being you're not even sure exists? Religious jargon and games can't satisfy such a longing. It's got to be real . . . or nothing at all. A Search for What Is Real helps you sort through the questions, objections, and concerns that arise when you consider God not as some theological abstraction, but as someone you can actually connect with . . . and want to connect with, perhaps more than you know. FINDING FAITH The Finding Faith books, A Search for What Makes Sense and A Search for What Is Real, don't try to tell you what to believe; they are guides in learning how to believe. If you think the spiritual journey requires turning your back on honesty and intellectual integrity, these two companion volumes will speak...

Finding Faith

Número de Páginas: 308

Is there a God? - What might God be like? - What is the relationship between faith and certainty? - Can intelligent people believe in spiritual realities? - Why are there so many religions? - Is it possible to experience a relationship with God--and if so, how? If you've asked questions like these, you're in good company. From songwriters such as Bob Dylan and Jewel Kilcher to TV shows such as The X Files and Touched by an Angel, the media and the arts reflect postmodern men and women's search for a living faith and a spiritually oriented life. Real faith isn't blind believism. It is a process that engages your intellect as well as your emotions. If you think faith requires turning your back on truth and intellectual honesty, then Finding Faith is one book you really ought to read. With logic, passion, and even-handedness that the thinking person will appreciate, this book helps you face your obstacles to faith by focusing not on what to believe, but on how to believe. Whether you want to strengthen the faith you have, renew the faith you lost, or discover faith for the first time, Finding Faith can coach, inspire, encourage, and guide you, and help you discover more in life than...

Finding Faith Today

Autor: Bryan P. Stone

Número de Páginas: 246

How do persons come to faith in our time? Are they active seekers or brought in by others? Is it a journey? Or is it a more sudden conversion? Are spouses, relatives, and friends most important to the process? Do clergy matter? What sorts of values, practices, and lifestyles tend to change for those who newly come to faith? What are the differences among the various religious traditions in how one comes to faith? This book presents the findings of a multi-year study on how people come to faith in the US context. It involves about 1,800 persons who recently made a new profession of faith or some other public commitment across various religious traditions in the US. An initial study was conducted twenty-five years ago on Christian populations in England by Bishop John Finney, but surprisingly little research has been done since then. Finding Faith Today is an expansion and follow-up of that study. The book sheds new light on how people come to faith and what sort of spiritual, practical, and social changes accompany that. The book will be a help to those seeking to open up their communities of faith to others with hospitality and integrity.

Finding Faith

Autor: John Simmons

Número de Páginas: 268

Our sin nature is designed to talk us out of God’s promises. To separate ourselves from our sin nature and follow the path God laid out for our lives, we will need to rely on faith. Finding Faith will share the keys of faith we need to use to unlock all of God’s promises for our lives. Finding Faith is a guide to equip us with the knowledge and understanding of how God designed faith as a tool we can use to change the future of our lives.

In Finding Faith, John Simmons uses scripture and his engaging testimony to lay out a foundation for understanding the concepts of faith. John also outlines practical application that we can use today to mature in our faith.

Finding Faith

Autor: Sharon Gallagher

Número de Páginas: 198

As the media portrays it, modern Americans live their lives as though God were not part of the picture. Yet according to polls, two out of five Americans attend church weekly and even more profess belief in God. Sharon Gallagher turns her focus on those people who are moving in and out of church attendance, telling the stories of the people who in ways both expected and unexpected have come to faith and are willing to talk about their doubts and joys, and in doing so shows us how God continues to work in the lives of people today.

Another Way

Autor: Kevin Brown

Número de Páginas: 224

Like many young Christians, Kevin Brown had what he believed to be a strong faith, one that provided answers to all the questions he had and might encounter. He even attended a Christian college and considered becoming a youth minister. While there, though, he began having doubts about his faith, began asking questions that came from discussions both in and out of the classroom--questions he couldn't find answers to. When the church told him he shouldn't be asking those questions, he left the church and his faith behind. He kept asking questions, though, and kept looking for a faith that would allow him to have questions and doubts, yet still believe. What he found may offer an answer to the religious divide in our society--one that separates evangelical from progressive Christians, one that separates sacred from secular. In this memoir, Brown describes his spiritual journey from his first faith to the loss of faith to the way he found back to a Christianity where he can ask those questions, a different way than he knew before. He still has questions and doubts, but he also has faith, in spite of and because of those questions and doubts.

Finding Faith

Autor: Verity Faith

Número de Páginas: 230

'Faith' is a bizarre name to be born with when you've had no faith in yourself, other people or in God.This is a true, hard hitting and often graphic account of one woman's struggles to feel worthy of loving herself and others.Verity spent 37 years running from everything and everyone, with no understanding why.She lived and worked in over 40 places and could never feel safe enough to call anywhere home.She lived out her dream of becoming a singer as this was the only thing that made her happy and kept her at a distance from people.The story draws you intimately into her experiences of child abuse, sexuality and a host of mental health issues. It is liberating for victims and enlightening to those who may know someone who struggles as an individual because they don't fit into the 'norm'.The conclusion to the author of this story is 'miraculous', as Verity Faith discovers after 50 years, that she is worthy of love.She feels that her life purpose is now to share her life experiences as an inspiration to others.

Iglesias 24/7

Autor: Tim Chester , Steve Timmis

Número de Páginas: 199

Permite que este libro, con su enfoque en la primera carta de Pedro, cambie tus expectativas y tu forma de pensar. La mayoría de la gente en Occidente no tiene intención de asistir nunca a la iglesia. Otros muchos solo usan el nombre de Dios para decir una vulgaridad. Y, aunque algunas iglesias destacables están creciendo, gran parte de esto se debe más a un traspaso de membresía que a un verdadero crecimiento. Sin embargo, muchos de nuestros enfoques evangelísticos siguen asumiendo que en la sociedad hay una mentalidad cristiana. Por eso nuestra expectativa es que la gente venga cuando preparamos un buen programa en la iglesia. Necesitamos encontrarnos con los no cristianos allí donde están, en el contexto de la vida cotidiana, y no centrarnos en preparar eventos atractivos, sino en crear comunidades atractivas.

Finding Faith in Slow Motion

Autor: Damon J. Gray

Número de Páginas: 148

Faith is neither static nor instantaneous. It is not something we stumble upon and instantly understand. Neither is it a monolithic, one-dimensional, singular entity that has but one face, one color, one fragrance. It is many-faceted, multi-dimensional, and appears differently depending on one’s angle to the Son. In Finding Faith in Slow Motion, Damon Gray examines faith from myriad angles and through gut-wrenching life experiences, as he asks regarding faith, “What is that stuff?” Spanning the emotional gamut from laughter to tears, Gray challenges us to define our faith and redefine it, to look at it from a multitude of perspectives and define it again. The writing is intentionally evocative and playful, offering the reader the ability to identify with Gray as he wrestles with the weighty subject matter of finding faith.

Finding Faith in the Field

Autor: Benjamin Duane Hylden

Número de Páginas: 116

On a cold April day, Ben Hylden tried on his suit coat for the upcoming school prom and then sped toward nearby Park River, North Dakota, for an appointment. Running late and driving too fast, he lost control of his car on ice, flipped the car, and was thrown out the passenger's door-plunging face-first into an icy field. Ben's face and body were crushed, along with his dreams of being a basketball star. As his battered body lay in the field, Ben's life seemed to be coming to an end. However, it turned out to only be the beginning of a remarkable journey of faith that showed him glimpses of life beyond this world and gave him a new perspective on what matters most.

La desaparición de la gracia

Autor: Philip Yancey

Número de Páginas: 274

“¿Por qué la iglesia provoca sentimientos tan negativos?”. Philip Yancey ha estado haciendo esa pregunta toda su vida como periodista. Su pregunta es más relevante ahora que nunca: en un periodo de veinte años comenzando desde mitad de los noventa, la investigación muestra que las opiniones favorables hacia el cristianismo se han desplomado de manera drástica; y las opiniones de los evangélicos han caído incluso más profundamente. Yancey examina lo que pudo haber contribuido a la hostilidad hacia los evangélicos. Ofrece esclarecedoras formas de cómo la fe puede expresarse de maneras que desarmen incluso a los críticos más cínicos y examina qué son las Buenas Nuevas y lo que vale la pena preservar en una cultura que cree que ha rechazado la fe cristiana.

El Arte del Evangelismo Personal

Autor: Will Mcraney

Número de Páginas: 268

La extensión del Reino de Dios siempre ocurre de la misma manera: alguien se comunica eficazmente con otra persona sobre Jesucristo y su mensaje. El evangelismo personal es el cimiento de todo el crecimiento de la iglesia. A medida que cambian la cultura y las características del mundo moderno, las personas buscan obtener respuestas espirituales para las preguntas más importantes de la vida. Sin embargo, en el crecientemente hacinado mercado de las ideas espirituales, la gente se interesa cada vez menos en la iglesia. Will McRaney aborda este problema con la solución más profunda. Si el Reino de Dios va a extenderse, cada cristiano en particular deberá aprender a comunicar su fe de una manera atractiva, personal y pertinente a la cultura contemporánea receptiva. Expanding God’s kingdom always happens the same way: one person effectively communicating the person and message of Jesus Christ to another. Personal evangelism is the foundation for all church growth. As the culture and landscape of the modern world shift, people are looking for spiritual answers to life’s significant questions. In the increasingly crowded marketplace of spiritual ideas, however, people are...

Not Knowing Whither

Autor: Oswald Chambers

Número de Páginas: 178

God’s friend—that’s what the book of James calls Abraham, the father of the Israelite nation. Friendships take time, trust, and sacrifice, and in this insightful study Oswald Chambers examines each step of Abraham’s faith-journey toward intimate friendship with his creator. Chambers shows us how this great pioneer of faith reacted to God’s call, the claims of companions, clashing circumstances, and the terrific cost of God’s friendship. Not Knowing Whither asks Christians today to look each faith challenge in the eye—to face the unknown—and pursue friendship with God.

Keep Believing: Finding God in Your Deepest Struggles (2019 Edition)

Autor: Dr. Ray Pritchard

The biggest barrier to faith is life itself. Divorce. Cancer. Infertility. Death. There are times in our lives in which God seems very far away. We don't understand His silence. We only feel the intensity of our pain and the echoing question of 'why?' The Bible declares that God is good, but can we still believe this when our lives are falling apart? In Keep Believing, Dr. Pritchard affirms what the Bible declares: that God is good and His mercy endures forever. This is true regardless of our moment-by-moment experience. God has provided comfort in our times of struggle and healing in our times of hurt through the balm of His Word. You believed in the light of day; will you still believe at midnight? Search the Scriptures with Dr. Pritchard for words of encouragement and hope. Put your confidence in the God who sorrowfully watched His Son suffer at Calvary for your benefit. Know that the same loving heavenly Father has everything completely under control. He is with you and longs to comfort you as you struggle through your hard times. Take a tell-tale look at your devotion to the Lord and His never-ending love and commitment to you in Keep Believing. You served God in the...

The Poetry of Luis Cernuda

Autor: Neil Charles Mckinlay

Número de Páginas: 206

A study of the work of the Spanish poet Luis Cernuda (1902-1963). The works of the twentieth-century Spanish poet Luis Cernuda (1902-1963) are characterised by their fragmentary and disunified nature, with a wide range of complexities and contradictions. Concentrating on the well-known La realidad y el deseo, Dr McKinlay considers the poems from the perspective of the widespread loss of faith in God, exploring the tension between Cernuda's perception of chaos and desire for order, which co-exist in dialectical opposition. NEIL C. MCKINLAY is college lecturer in Spanish at New College, Oxford.
