Opis

Feeling like you've been left for dead in a "desert" place of your Christian walk? Take heart. God has not forgotten you. Author Todd Shuler's message is based on his reflections and meditations into the life of Abraham's son, Issac. The Well-Watered Life is about thriving in the deserts of your own life, being led out by the power of the Holy Spirit, and learning to be a source of refreshing encouragement to others in the body of Christ. Come--drink and be refreshed ************* PRAISE FOR "The Well-Watered Life" ..".Practical and Encouraging..." 5 out of 5 stars (see full review below) "As the Psalmist said, "I thirst for God; the living God," mankind still seeks that soul-quenching water which was offered through Christ. The Well-Watered Life by Todd L. Shuler uses the images and symbols of water in the desert and, most specifically, the images which come from the biblical account of Isaac. As our hearts and souls find themselves in a time of barrenness, as if in a desert without water, Christ offers his well of living water from which to drink and never thirst again. With each chapter, Todd explores the different aspects of our lives that lead us to our deserts and the thirst that cannot be quenched by anything other than the living water. With each chapter Todd also includes a section called "Takeaways," which are a quick list of bulleted points from the chapter that are a recap of the discussion of the chapter. Also included is a free workbook in pdf format that can be downloaded and used to accompany the study. This is not only an excellent study of the symbols of the desert and water as they relate to our spiritual lives, but The Well-Watered Life is a very practical guide for seeking after the promised living water of the Savior. The exposition on the symbols and lessons of scripture are very accurate and the conclusions to which Todd leads the reader are spot on and consistent with other scriptural references. Blessed, practical and encouraging, The Well-Watered Life is a study that will lead you out of the spiritual desert and place you beside the well of living water where you will never thirst again." Bill Howard, Reviewer, Readers' Favorite ***** "If you wonder why your spiritual tank is running on empty or if you are looking for a glimpse of hope and definite purpose for your life, this book was written for you. Reading it may be the first step to a more fulfilling and passionate spiritual journey." -Luis Castro, Certified Coach, Teacher & Speaker for The John Maxwell Team "This book is an indispensable tool for the lay member and leader alike who find themselves in a desert place. Shuler fascinates his reader with his practical insights and biblical wisdom. It's a must-read for the person whose life's journey has lost passion, power, and purpose. The reader will be transformed from wandering in the desert to having an intimate, fulfilled life in Christ. I highly recommend this book for those beginning their walk with Christ or those who seek to continue toward the mature, well-watered life " -Dr. Carlos McCloud, Theologian "In a culture that has lowered practically all moral and ethical standards over the course of the past couple of decades, Todd Shuler's The Well-Watered Life does an exceptional job in pointing believers back to the basics of prayer, seeking God, and listening for His answers. Todd vividly portrays the healthy and dynamic Christian life as one of intentionality; the reader is brought to the brink of decision as to the future direction of his life as a follower of Christ." - Stan Hutchinson, Engineer, Financial Counselor and Instructor, Author of Financial Peace of Mind from the WORD.
