ISBN: 9780687650842 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Using his method of approaching Bible passages from an unusual angle or a unique starting point, J. Ellsworth Kalas presents new insight into the beatitudes, Jesus' blessings from the Sermon on the Mount. When we start examining the beatitudes we realize that in Jesus' view, happiness is not something we get by pursuing it; indeed, almost the contrary. We are told that we will be happy--or blessed, if you prefer--in what appears to be the near antithesis of happiness. If we choose to live by the beatitudes, we make a declaration of dependence. We put ourselves into...Using his method of approaching Bible passages from an unusual angle or a unique starting point, J. Ellsworth Kalas presents new i... |

Grace in a Tree Stump: Old Testament Stories of God's Love
ISBN: 9780664229009 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Christians often assume too sharp a distinction between the Old and New Testaments, argues preacher, author, and teacher J. Ellsworth Kalas. They are too quick to view the Old Testament as a strict book of laws and commandments and the New Testament as a witness to grace.

The Parables of Paul: The Master of the Metaphor
ISBN: 9781630882532 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. For over 2,000 years, the church has looked to the apostle Paul and his letters in order to understand and follow the Christian life. Paul had his own compelling way of sharing Jesus' message with others, through the use of the metaphor--a brief, imaginative word picture that shows the same truth as a longer story. From casting himself in the role of a slave, to presenting the Christian as a soldier or an actor, or even showing how we are vessels in the King's house, Paul's gallery of enriching, life-changing story pictures paints for us an indelible picture of the Christian...

Longing to Pray: How the Psalms Teach Us to Talk with God
ISBN: 9780687495122 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Includes Study Guide This little book invites us to study with some ancient experts in prayer, the persons who wrote the Book of Psalms. We haven't read long in the psalms before we realize that the authors, like us, were altogether human, their lives marked by breathtaking highs and lows. But with all of that, they were saints who left us with the greatest collection of prayers in the possession of our human race. What was their secret? I believe it was the quality of their friendship with God. And of course the language of that friendship is prayer. The psalmists don't give...

ISBN: 9780664261184 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How can anything be ordinary if we find the glory of God there? Whatever might be said of life's most thrilling or transformative moments, most of our time is spent in ordinary things. We spend a third of our lives sleeping. In our adult lives, perhaps a quarter to a third of each week is spent at work. And then there's more of the common stuff: eating, waiting in line, bathing, getting dressed, and watching TV. So it is that our seventy, eighty, or ninety years go by in common ways, and we have no idea where they've gone. Is there glory in any of this? Where is the...
