DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbraham left his hometown for a promise. Moses parted the Red Sea. Joseph saved his family and the country. David conquered Goliath. Elijah rode out on a chariot of fire. Peter walked on water. We may think these stories are crazy, yet Scripture is filled with them. The beauty is that these stories didn't stop 2000 years ago. They continue to this day, because the same God that lived and breathed within these men, still exists and He lives and breathes within believers around the face of this world today. Did you catch that? Can you imagine sitting down around a campfire and talking to these men at the end of their lives and saying, "Hey, tell me what that was like when you saw God move." To your surprise they just look at you and say something you can't believe, "You can have the same experience, the same type of God story as I do." In this book Chad and I want to challenge the ordinary, push you to your limits where all you can do is trust that God is greater than your circumstance and fear.

Written in a way to make you feel like we are sitting right there talking with you, going through this life together. Hope you like it and prepare yourself to go on a journey that only God can author. To live a life that other's can't believe, and when you are sitting on your back porch, you are now the one being asked, "Tell me what was it like to see God move! This book is a 31 day journey that can be used as a journal. There are questions at the end of every chapter to help you interact with what you have just read. Life is a journey and when you have moved from fear to audacious faith in Jesus, it is never boring.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKUnbelief is the single biggest barrier to experiencing the supernatural in the Kingdom of God. For example, scripture tells us Jesus could do no mighty works in His hometown because of the people’s unbelief. When His disciples could not heal a man’s son, Jesus later told them unbelief was the reason for their challenge. Fortunately, each of us has the ability to change what we believe. The more our beliefs line up with the truth of God’s word, the more effective our faith becomes. How to Believe Your Way to Supernatural Faith addresses these topics and more: What Truth Is The Truth About Sin The Importance of Covenants The Value of Hope What Faith is Why You Don’t See More Miracles

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLife is just a series of short stories, and every decision you make becomes part of your story. When in the moment, will you choose faith over fear or fear over faith? It's an easy question to answer when you aren't in the "storm" but a huge question when something near and dear to you is in jeopardy. Like many girls do, Julie dreamed of becoming a mommy. She dreamed of a perfect life for and with her child. After suffering a miscarriage and a cancer diagnosis, finding out she was pregnant was an incredible miracle. But what happened next put her faith to the test, more so than the previous trials. How do you keep having faith when you are caught in a "storm?" Conversations with Colton will explore just that! Colton survived despite what doctors said, and conversations with him have made all the fear, faith, and doubt that got to this moment 100 percent worth it. 21

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf you have ever felt “stuck,” or wondered why you “never seem to get anywhere,” this book is for you! Or if you have tried self-help books, yoga videos, hobbies, self-improvement courses and you are still left with an uncomfortable feeling that your life is not all it should be, or an anxious feeling about the future you can’t exactly name, there is a Christian explanation and cure for these things. If you feel the Bible is vague, hard to understand and condemning, there is a framework in which the whole Bible can be made clear. And there is a way to live a better life here and now, not just in the “hereafter!” In Twice Blessed, Joseph pours his heart out to the reader so that you may be relieved of these burdens. Although written in simple everyday language, in reading it he hopes that everyone, both seekers, and serious Bible students are challenged and learn new insights and understandings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the acclaimed author of Bird by Bird comes a personal, wise, very funny, and “life-affirming” book (People) that shows us how to find meaning and hope through shining the light of faith on the darkest part of ordinary life. "Anne Lamott is walking proof that a person can be both reverent and irreverent in the same lifetime. Sometimes even in the same breath." —San Francisco Chronicle Lamott claims the two best prayers she knows are: "Help me, help me, help me" and "Thank you, thank you, thank you." She has a friend whose morning prayer each day is "Whatever," and whose evening prayer is "Oh, well." Anne thinks of Jesus as "Casper the friendly savior" and describes God as "one crafty mother." Despite—or because of—her irreverence, faith is a natural subject for Anne Lamott. Since Operating Instructions and Bird by Bird, her fans have been waiting for her to write the book that explained how she came to the big-hearted, grateful, generous faith that she so often alluded to in her two earlier nonfiction books. The people in Anne Lamott's real life are like beloved characters in a favorite series for her readers—her friend Pammy, her son, Sam, and the many funny and wise folks who attend her church are all familiar. And Traveling Mercies is a welcome return to those lives, as well as an introduction to new companions Lamott treats with the same candor, insight, and tenderness. Lamott's faith isn't about easy answers, which is part of what endears her to believers as well as nonbelievers. Against all odds, she came to believe in God and then, even more miraculously, in herself. As she puts it, "My coming to faith did not start with a leap but rather a series of staggers."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAt age twenty-one, Andrea Palpant Dilley stripped the Christian fish decal off her car bumper in a symbolic act of departure from her religious childhood. At twenty-three, she left the church and went searching for refugein the company of men who left her lonely and friends who pushed the boundaries of what she once held sacred. In this deeply personal memoir, Andrea navigates the doubts that plague believers and skeptics alike: Why does a good God allow suffering? Why is God so silent, distant, and uninvolved? And why does the church seem so dysfunctional? Yet amid her skepticism, she begins to ask new questions: Could doubting be a form of faith? Might our doubts be a longing for God that leads to a faith we can ultimately live with?
