Having faith is fun, and it really is just that--fun! When you realize that faith has all the answers to your situation, why would you live in fear? When you live in fear, your fear is your faith, and you believe what fear says. We have all been given a measure of faith not to hold on to but to use. Faith is an action word, which requires action to reap the rewards of answered prayers of those things hoped for. Believing when we pray powers our faith. In the book of James, he reminds us that "faith without works is dead" (James 2:20 KJV). As time goes by, our measure of faith, which we should be using whether it's the mustard seed or something greater, would grow over time into a mustard tree (Matthew 21:34-37). No one should have the same measure of faith they were given at birth. Babies don't know anything about faith, but there is a mechanism in place that when a baby cries, attention comes. It's the same with our faith: when it is used, it brings God's attention to our situation. So as you see, having faith is fun. Faith already has the answer to whatever you're going through. Try having fun with faith, and you'll see and notice the difference in your trials. Let go of fear and grab your faith because having faith is fun when you use it and believe it! What I noticed is the power that faith produces from one trial to another. Faith grows. It should not be the same faith you used when you were younger. Faith doesn't stay the same. It changes, it grows. It is sad when I hear someone say, "I have mustard seed faith after going through many trials." Faith is a seed that is meant to grow bigger and better with every trial. Faith makes you a winner. Real faith never fails. Make faith your friend and fear your enemy. You will see the difference in the results.

Dr Francis S. Collins, head of the Human Genome Project, is one of the world's leading scientists, working at the cutting edge of the study of DNA, the code of life. Yet he is also a man of unshakable faith in God. How does he reconcile the seemingly unreconcilable? In THE LANGUAGE OF GOD he explains his own journey from atheism to faith, and then takes the reader on a stunning tour of modern science to show that physics, chemistry and biology -- indeed, reason itself -- are not incompatible with belief. His book is essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest questions of all: why are we here? How did we get here? And what does life mean?

A New York Times Bestseller! We know there are certain things we must have to survive--food, shelter, and safety to name a few. But there are also aspects of life that truly allow us to be joyful and fulfilled. For popular podcaster and bestselling author Annie F. Downs, fun is close to the top of that list. Few would argue that having fun doesn't enrich our lives, but so much gets in the way of prioritizing it. Tough days, busyness, and feelings that are hard to talk about keep us from the fun that's out there waiting to be found. With That Sounds Fun, Annie offers an irresistible invitation to understand the meaning of fun, to embrace it and chase it, and to figure out what, exactly, sounds fun to you--then do it! Exploring some research and sharing some thoughts behind why fun matters, she shows you how to find, experience, and multiply your fun. With her signature storytelling style and whimsical vulnerability, Annie is the friend we all need to guide us back to staying true to ourselves and finding the fun we need.

The Big Sick meets Dad is Fat in this funny and heartfelt New York Times bestselling memoir from writer, director, wife, and mother, Jeannie Gaffigan, as she reflects on the life-changing impact of her battle with a pear-sized brain tumor. In 2017, Jeannie's life came to a crashing halt when she was diagnosed with a life-threatening brain tumor. As the mother of 5 kids -- 6 if you include her husband -- sat in the neurosurgery department in star-covered sweats too whimsical for the seriousness of the situation, all she could think was "Am I going to die?" Thankfully, Jeannie and her family were able to survive their time of crisis, and now she is sharing her deeply personal journey through this miraculous story: the challenging conversations she had with her children; how she came to terms with feeling powerless and ferociously crabby while bedridden and unable to eat for a month; and how she ultimately learned, re-learned and re re-learned to be more present in life. With sincerity and hilarity, Jeannie invites you into her heart (and brain) during this trying time, emphasizing the importance of family, faith and humor as keys to her recovery and leading a more fulfilling life.

In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought. Through an in-depth investigation of Galatians 3:1-4:11, Hays shows that the framework of Paul's thought is neither a system of doctrines nor his personal religious experience but the "sacred story" of Jesus Christ.

Abraham and Sarah were presented with a paradox when God told them they would have a son in their old age. Paradox in the Old Testament plays an important part in the dialogue between God and the Jews. In the New Testament, paradox is prominent in Jesus' teaching and helps to explain the Christian understanding of salvation.
