DOWNLOAD EBOOKNearly four years after an errant tackle left him paralyzed below the waist, the inspiring comeback story of how former Pittsburgh Steeler Ryan Shazier recovered to walk again. As an All-American at Ohio State and All-Pro linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Ryan Shazier was living his best life while excelling at the game he loves, a game that has given him so much. But then Ryan was forced to redefine success. Suddenly, it was no longer measured by tackles or sacks, but by purpose and faith. WALKING MIRACLE is the story of this new definition of success, following the arc from December 4, 2017, when Shazier was injured playing the Cincinnati Bengals, to his retirement. For three years, Shazier doggedly pursued a return to professional football. He took small wins as “first downs” on the drive to return to the field: moving his toes, walking, dancing at his wedding, and ultimately running and returning to the team. What Shazier didn’t realize is that along the way, he was preparing himself for another purpose—that of father and husband, philanthropist, and football analyst. The journey was preparing him not for a renewed life as a middle linebacker, but a renewed life after the game. Here we see Shazier overcome childhood alopecia, which caused a great deal of emotional pain, and scoliosis, which nearly robbed him of his dreams of playing college and professional football. We gain insights into legendary coaches Urban Meyer and Mike Tomlin. And we see him star on the field. Shazier was one of the best defensive players in Steeler history—a history full of great defensive stars. WALKING MIRACLE—the message on a bracelet given to him by his godmother—is the story of Ryan’s comeback, but it’s also a book of life’s lessons, challenges, and a love letter to the power of positive thinking.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDrawing on Jesus's example of walking, bestselling author Mark Buchanan explores one of the oldest spiritual practices of our faith. What happens when we literally walk out our Christian life? We discover the joy of traveling at the speed of our soul. We often act as if faith is only about the mind. But what about our bodies? What does our physical being have to do with our spiritual life? When the Bible exhorts us to walk in the light, or walk by faith, or walk in truth, it means these things literally as much as figuratively. The Christian faith always involves walking out, as again and again we find the holy in the ordinary. "Come, follow me," Jesus said, and then he was off. The most obvious thing about Jesus's method of discipleship, in fact, is that he walked and invited others to walk with him. Jesus is always "on the way," "arriving," "leaving," "approaching," "coming upon." It's in the walking that his disciples are taught, formed, tested, empowered, and released. Part theology, part history, part field guide, God Walk explores walking as spiritual formation, walking as healing, walking as exercise, walking as prayer, walking as pilgrimage, suffering, friendship, and attentiveness. It is a book about being alongside the God who, incarnate in Jesus, turns to us as he passes by--always on foot--and says simply, "Come, follow me." With practical insight and biblical reflections told in his distinct voice, Buchanan provides specific walking exercises so you can immediately implement the practice of going "God speed." Whether you are walking around the neighborhood or hiking in the mountains, walking offers the potential to awaken your life with Christ as it revives body and soul.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPilgrimage in the Western world is enjoying a growing popularity, perhaps more so now than at any time since the Middle Ages. The Pilgrim Journey tells the fascinating story of how pilgrimage was born and grew in antiquity, how it blossomed in the Middle Ages and faltered in subsequent centuries, only to re-emerge stronger than before in modern times. James Harpur describes the pilgrim routes and sacred destinations past and present, the men and women making the journey, the many challenges of travel, and the spiritual motivations and rewards. He also explores the traditional stages of pilgrimage, from preparation, departure, and the time on the road, to the arrival at the shrine and the return home. At the heart of pilgrimage is a spiritual longing that has existed from time immemorial. The Pilgrim Journey is both the colourful chronicle of numerous pilgrims of centuries past searching for heaven on earth, and an illuminating guide for today's spiritual traveller.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat do you classify as a miracle? I hope you will know that my book is about the miracles I have experienced--unbelievable ones. Yes, it is hard for me to believe it, but I believe it's because it happened to me. My prayer is that you will know that Jesus still works miracles. I am a walking miracle. I hear I do not look like what I have been through. Praise God. (I want God to get the glory from my story.) I have had a lot of tests, trials, and tribulations in my seventy-one years of life. But in order to have a testimony, you need to have a test. God knows I have had test after test. I do have a testimony--I am still here in spite of the death sentences that were on me (not twice, but three times) (but God). Everybody goes through things, but some are not death sentences like mine were. I will never give up and I can't give in. Never will I turn back. No, no, no. God has been too good to me. I want to share my story because hopefully it will help someone along the way. They could say, "If she made it through, I, too, can." I know God wants me to share this story. Hopefully it will inspire you. When I was going through my test, I was never afraid, although it could have been the end of my life, I am so grateful it wasn't. I stuck to God's Word, kept repeating them to myself over and over. God has not given me a spirit of fear but of love, power, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). He also said in his Word, "Fear not for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God, I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10). I also repeated Psalm 23:4 often, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." So many scriptures kept me looking unto the hills from which cometh my help because I knew my help came from the Lord who made the heavens and the earth. This scripture would enter my thought process really often. And as Psalm 118:17 says, "I shall live and not die and proclaim God's glory and what the Lord has done" to give me this marvelous testimony. If you are going through something, be encouraged and know that God is faithful, and he takes care of his own.
