What makes God smile? What makes God angry? What makes God's heart beat? Have you ever wanted to know the answers to these questions about God? Do you want to find out if what youve always thought about God is really true? You can get answers to these questions by looking at what the Bible says about the heart of God. In this stimulating and heartfelt book, Dr. Harold Shank leads us through an in-depth study of scripture that will help us find out what makes Gods heart beat. Dr. Shank also explores how to reconcile some of the difficult-to-comprehend aspects of Gods heart. How can His goodness and love be reconciled with His command to utterly destroy a certain group of people? or If God cares about brokenhearted people, why are there so many of them in our world?

"Superabundant, more-than-we-can-ask-or-imagine grace is continually flowing. The Father is initiating. The Son is releasing it. The Spirit is conveying it. And yet most people, even many believers, are missing it, or only occasionally tapping into it. They're not living in the flow." In The Esther Blessing You'll explore the remarkable flow of grace. You'll see how grace flowed in the lives of Mordecai and Queen Esther. You'll learn how you can live in the flow. You'll see the connection between grace and reigning. You'll find that reigning in life does not equal getting the royal treatment. You'll see the toxic results when people seeking the latter embrace narcissism. In The Esther Blessing, you'll find: This blessing is available to you. Like all God's blessings, it will call you into, and flow out from, intimate relationship with God himself.

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
