FORGIVENESS REQUIRES MORE STRENGTH THAN HATRED. Following her release from a Nazi concentration camp, Corrie ten Boom refused to give in to the weakness of anger. Instead, she chose to forgive her captors and spread the message of Christ’s love throughout the world. Amazing Love shares Corrie’s incredible stories of encounters with people from all walks of life and shows us how a childlike faith in the wisdom and love of God pushes us to forgive the seemingly impossible. Within these pages you will meet Corrie ten Boom, but you will also meet Corrie’s Christ.

From the very beginning of time, GodaEUR(tm)s purpose for man was to be His companion. Above all, it has always been GodaEUR(tm)s plan to have a loving relationship with man. However, God would not compel man to love Him. God wanted man to love Him by his own choice, so God presented man with a choice. When man chose his own self-determination and own wisdom rather than accepting God benevolent love, God turned man away from the garden of Eden. Sin, suffering, and hardship became manaEUR(tm)s plight by his own choice.That would have been a sad outcome except in spite of manaEUR(tm)s self-serving selfish actions, God never stopped loving him.The Bible chronicles GodaEUR(tm)s unrelenting actions to win man love. Only when we acknowledge GodaEUR(tm)s relentless love by accepting the love relationship exemplified by Jesus will we experience the bond that God intended for us from the very beginning. When we accept GodaEUR(tm)s love by following JesusaEUR(tm)s example, our desire will be to meet GodaEUR(tm)s expectations. Jesus taught us that this can be best accomplished by being obedient to his will and daily following the PASS Principle.The purpose of this book is to share the story of GodaEUR(tm)s amazing love so that we can envision GodaEUR(tm)s plan, past, present and future, through the prism of GodaEUR(tm)s unrelenting love.

Sex sells. Sense doesnt. This is what Christians face in this world. But we cannot use that as an excuse to justify reckless choices in our lives. This is the main reason why Prince Mensah wrote Seven Steps to Amazing Love. The book is an honest, no-holds-barred conversation about how Christians can achieve a fulfilling relationship with another person. Prince uses the Bible and contemporary research to support his seven recommendations. As Christians, it is imperative to know how to survive minefields on the path to a godly and fulfilling relationship. The reader is offered a chance to self-analyze with the truth of Gods word. There is no mincing of words in Seven Steps to Amazing Love. It is a book that suggests several ways to avoid, or survive, the prevailing sense of futility in todays culture when it comes to true love. Prince Mensah came to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Personal Savior in 1992. The conversion occurred at Calvary Baptist Church in Accra, Ghana. Since then, Prince has conducted workshops and seminars about issues affecting Christian youth. He has spoken on subjects ranging from selfishness to sexuality. Issues of chastity and fidelity in a Christians life are focal points in Princes presentations. This is because todays microwave society disables people to think through problems. The hasty decision-making results in unpleasant circumstances in many areas, especially in relationships. Prince Mensah has held the position of secretary for the Hope Baptist Church Youth group in Accra, Ghana. He studied Christian Psychology in college and holds a Consultants Certificate in Mediation. He is also a Fellow of the African-American HIV University in Los Angeles, California. He is married to Charisse Sullivan-Mensah, a career musician. The couple lives in Columbia, MD.
YOU ARE TRULY LOVED!!! There is One whom loves you more than you will ever, ever know, more than you can ever imagine! He is among us and He's written us a beautiful and amazing love letter! He wants you to know, just how much He truly loves you!!!
We all face and respond to the different circumstances surrounding our lives in different ways. Spending time in God's Word can help one to recognize that God desires to spend time and hear from each of His children and is very similar to how a parent loves to spend time and hear from their own children. No matter how good or how bad these daily circumstances are, He is always waiting with open arms to spend time with us. Whether we just need to thank Him for His many blessings or simply ask why things are the way they are, He is always standing at the door waiting. Since the book of Psalms deals with many circumstances of life, hopefully one can begin to understand that God really does care and will listen. In this book, each Psalm or part of the Psalm can be read out loud or quietly, and then there is a simple heartfelt prayer after each one to assist in recognizing how sovereign He is and how dependent we really are on His protection every second of our life.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis ___ An Amazing Love Story is the inspiring true story of Jerry and Peggy Weygandt who found their reason for living in a sentence of death. Together, they raised his four and her two sons and formed a solid marriage and business partnership. An electrician by trade, Jerry saw life as going his way, until he began to lose muscle strength. He became unable to raise his arms, use his legs to support his body or hold up his head. In 2003, Jerry Weygandt was diagnosed with ALS, also known as Lou Gehrigs disease. Since then, he and his devoted wife Peggy have seen his terminal illness as their mission to witness to Gods presence and love in the midst of hardship. Their goal is to inspire others to tenaciously live life to the fullest possible and to raise awareness of the struggles encountered by persons handicapped with a life threatening illness.

The present collection of essays examines specific texts by Charles Wesley in multiple dimensions (theological, poetical, historical, biographical, etc.), demonstrating both the profound nature of the hymns and their continued relevance for Christians today. The discussions are organized by theological/liturgical topics, and each essay treats us to the hymn in its complete original form (noting significant variants as necessary), explains the historical context of its composition, provides a theological interpretation, and relates it to the life and faith of the believer. In the pages of this book, the reader will find both information and inspiration. Scholars of hymnody and of Charles Wesley will appreciate the depth of inquiry in the chapters. Just as importantly, laypersons and hymn lovers (as well as scholars) will find much spiritual benefit from the study of hymns they know and love, as well as texts with which they may be less familiar. This exploration of these profound hymns will surely lead to a deeper understanding of the “amazing love” responsible for changing the course of Charles Wesley’s life, who in turn changed the course of Christian worship.
