DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne of the greatest spiritual battles right now is over perspective--the way you see possibilities, limitations, and what God is doing. This book will help you encounter God in such a way that you are able to walk in His original design for you, which is to not only commune with Him through conversation but to be aligned with His mind. When you share His thoughts and perceptions, you will be able to live the abundant, supernatural, super-empowered life God desires for you. Humans are unique in that we were not just made in the image of God; we reflect His very nature. If we understood our spiritual, neurological, psychological, and even physical connection to God, we could bring solutions to every problem humanity faces--and many would be practical, even scientific, solutions. In this book, Shawn Bolz shares a series of rich, divine encounters that have defined his spiritual perspective so others can be released into new ways of thinking and experience an expansion of their spiritual intelligence. To walk with God, you need to know not only His heart but also His mind. As believers, we were designed to commune with God, sharing not only conversation with Him but also His thoughts and perceptions--to know His mind through His Spirit. When Adam and Eve walked with God in the cool of the day, they didn't always need the verbal communication that so limits humanity today. They had inner communication from their connectedness. This is the kind of connectedness Solomon, Joseph, Daniel, Esther, and the apostle Paul experienced, and this is what God wants to restore to His people today. This book will help readers gain a fresh vision of their faith so they can walk out their spirituality exactly as God intended and take their place in the coming move of God.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA broad, definitive history of the profound relationship between religion and movements for social change in America The United States has always had an active, vibrant, and influential religious Left. In every period of our history, people of faith have envisioned a society of peace and justice, and their tireless efforts have powered the social movements that have defined America’s progress: the abolition of slavery, feminism, the New Deal, civil rights, and others. In this groundbreaking, definitive work, McKanan treats the histories of religion and of the Left as a single history, showing that American radicalism is a continuous tradition rather than a collection of disparate movements. Emphasizing the power of encounter—between whites and former slaves, between the middle classes and the immigrant masses, and among activists themselves—McKanan shows that the coming together of people of different perspectives and beliefs has been transformative for centuries, uniting those whose faith is a source of activist commitment with those whose activism is a source of faith. Offering a history of the diverse religious dimensions of radical movements from the American Revolution to the present day, Prophetic Encounters invites contemporary activists to stand proudly in a tradition of prophetic power.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKJust One Encounter Will Redefine and Redirect Your Life Do you find yourself longing for a word or touch from God? For a moment of clarity in His presence? Do you wonder why the stories of divine encounters you read in the Bible don't happen in today’s world? In the age of information and man-made wonders, we’ve replaced a vibrant relationship with God with a stale religion about God. We’ve disconnected from His Presence—and our lives show it. Revealing not only how believers are called to divine encounters but also how we are created for them, bestselling authors and internationally respected pastors Paul Manwaring and Bill Johnson of Bethel Church point the way back to experiencing God, showing how true encounter is at the heart of the Christian faith—and how you can live a lifestyle marked, and supernaturally shaped, by God’s presence. Through biblically-grounded teaching, Spirit-inspired wisdom, and uplifting encouragement, this modern-day classic helps you recapture the passion and power of the early church, empowering you to: Cultivate a vibrant relationship with the very real Person of God. Position yourself to experience true encounters with the Holy Spirit. Discern when these powerful moments are occurring. Discover the purpose each encounter plays in your life. Recognize encounters as signs of confirmation. Turn your Bible reading into personal experience. Fill your heart with divine delight in the Person of the Holy Spirit. Leave behind the stagnant religion of this age and run with reckless abandon back to the One who transforms you with His presence and then transforms the world through you.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLove has always been the need. Jesus has always been the answer. "The world is hurting for love," writes pastor and Bible teacher Charles Stanley. "Because God is infinite and full of compassion, He heard our cries and responded in the form of a perfect gift, Jesus." Consider this simple truth: all the wonderful attributes of God would be meaningless unless God was also a giver. He loves the world, and the evidence of that love is that he gave His Son. From this simple but profound premise, Dr. Stanley unfolds the riches of the giver and the glories of the gift. Stanley explores the many dimensions of God's generous nature, first in His character, then in the revelation of Himself through His Son, and finally in the impact of His magnificent gift. Written in a warm, daily devotional format, A Gift of Love will cause the height and depth of God's love to shine in your heart.
