Free to Run the Race describes the living out of our life in Christ (Hebrews 12:1). It speaks of running "with endurance the race that is set before us." This can be done by fixing our "eyes on Jesus." "Undoing the Burden of Parental Disregard," speaks to a specific encumbrance that weighs the runner down making it harder to keep focus and finish the race. The burden is called "parental disregard." It is not being allowed to "be oneself," to pursue one's inner direction, or natural proclivity in one's life. It is the experience of developmental woundedness that says being oneself in temperament, aptitudes, natural talents, and the expressing of this is prohibited. Prov 22:6 says, "train up a child according to his own way." The burden of parental disregard is the emotional pain in living out an identity that is not based on any expression of one's natural "way(s)" or bent(s). This makes the development of trust in a heavenly Father (parent) difficult. The relieving of this burden takes a ruthlessly honest focus on this woundedness and its working out its implications honestly that allows a more truthful understanding of God's love for our lives.

Best-selling author, speaker, and activist Christine Caine reminds readers that as Christians they are born to win. Their purpose is to run in the divine race of life until the day they cross the finish line and hear the words of their father, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Based on her bestselling book Unstoppable, Christine Caine encourages readers with the truth that they are assured of victory. Each person has a race to run in life. It’s a race with eternal implications. But life is sometimes difficult. The task seems to tough, the path too perilous, the race too rigorous. In Run the Race!, Christine Caine reminds Christians that they know the outcome of the race before it begins, and that knowledge should revolutionize the way they run their race, the way they live their lives. She enthralls readers with stories and timeless principles that inspire people of faith to run the race of their life, receiving the baton of faith in sync with their winning team--the body of Christ. God has chosen them, prepared them and placed them on His team. They are unstoppable.

A New York Times bestseller 'A sensation ... a rollicking tale well told' - The Times At the heart of Born to Run lies a mysterious tribe of Mexican Indians, the Tarahumara, who live quietly in canyons and are reputed to be the best distance runners in the world; in 1993, one of them, aged 57, came first in a prestigious 100-mile race wearing a toga and sandals. A small group of the world's top ultra-runners (and the awe-inspiring author) make the treacherous journey into the canyons to try to learn the tribe's secrets and then take them on over a course 50 miles long. With incredible energy and smart observation, McDougall tells this story while asking what the secrets are to being an incredible runner. Travelling to labs at Harvard, Nike, and elsewhere, he comes across an incredible cast of characters, including the woman who recently broke the world record for 100 miles and for her encore ran a 2:50 marathon in a bikini, pausing to down a beer at the 20 mile mark.

In September 2015, in an extraordinary effort called RUN50, Ferdie Cabiling set out on a 2,180 km run across the Philippines. He ran 50 km every day for almost 50 days, celebrating his 50th birthday along the way, to raise PHP 2,885,482 (over $55,500 USD) for scholars of the Real LIFE Foundation. Ferdie ran from the southernmost tip of the Philippines in Maasim, Sarangani, to the northernmost part in Aparri, Cagayan, praying with government officials and preaching in churches on Sundays. Writing as an experienced ultramarathoner, the Running Pastor chronicles his journey of faith and shares a unique perspective on the author of Hebrews' exhortation to a group of weary and frightened first-century Christians-to run with endurance the race set before them.

This isnt just a book about cancer, but its about Gods strength in the midst of suffering and uncertainty. Laura shares her real struggles, all the while weaving hope and trust throughout the story. Whether you have had cancer in the past, have it now, or never get cancer, you have had and will have major trials. We all do. Reading Lauras honest account of her battle with stage IV cancer will help you see how faith in the living God works out in the ups and downs of such a life and death struggle. I appreciated how Laura did not cover up her feelings, and how she described the intensity of the battle she went through. I also appreciated reading of how her husband, Mark, stood with her and supported her during this ordeal. Her story additionally shows how much we need each other during such trials and practically, how to be of help to a friend who is going through such difficult times. By reading this story, you will be strengthened in your faith and better prepared for the next trial you will face. Pastor Steve Cole Flagstaff Christian Fellowship
