Title: Holiness: Day by Day

Subtitle: Transformational Thoughts for your Spiritual Journey

Author: Jerry Bridges

Narrator: Arthur Morey

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12 hrs and 24 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-23-10

Publisher: christianaudio.com

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 9 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

We are called to a life of holiness. But, as any Christian can attest, the transformation from sinner to saint is rarely drastic or immediate. More often, it is a gradual process, found in the daily interactions of a spiritually nourished heart. In Holiness: Day by Day, Jerry Bridges offers that nourishment in the form of concise daily devotionals. With conversational style and God-centered focus, Bridges provides practical, encouraging insight, pointing us towards the One who, alone, is holy.

Members Reviews:

Five Stars

At the end of the devotional, it gets a person's feet on the basics for our belief.

Well worth the investment!

Perhaps the best book that I have ever read on holiness and God's grace. Jerry Bridges is insightful and an excellent teacher!

Five Stars

Great book with eye- opener truth

Marginally helpful

This book was difficult to read. I only got so far into it before I ended up returning it due to difficulty.

The "TV dinner" of devotionals

This book consists of a set of short devotionals organized by week. Each begins with a Bible verse which in some cases has something to do with the devotional, and then a short discussion or devotional. These are all couched as devotionals, but honestly many simply don't say enough to truly be a devotional. They are exceedingly short, and while well written, they don't provide enough substance to really satisfy.

Satisfaction is perhaps subjective, so let me be more concrete. Take Week 5, Tuesday, for example. This gives the verse 2 Corinthians 6:1, "We appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain." The devotional consists entirely of four short paragraphs and just 14 sentences. Summarizing the paragraphs, their points are:

1) Someone's definition of grace is God's making up the difference between the requirements of His law and what we lack -- making up for what we lack

2) This is a deficient and false notion of grace

3) We need to understand saving grace to live by it

4) Grace is always the same -- grace for salvation and for life

Oddly enough, however, this devotional never explains what grace IS. This might be OK if the next devotional went on to do so, but it doesn't. So, we have here a stand-alone devotional that says that we'd better not see grace as just God making up for what we lack, and it's vital to have a correct understanding of grace. Which is...? The devotional leaves us wondering.

The above is a particularly empty example, in that all it does is challenges a wrong idea without giving us anything good to replace it with or pointing us to God in any meaningful way. Some others are more helpful, but I would put many of these more in the motivational rather than devotional category. Week 5, Monday is an example of this. Phil. 3:14 is the text and the devotional asks us whether we want to grow spiritually -- whether we REALLY want to grow spiritually -- and exhorts us to exercise spiritual disciplines to grow.

What should devotionals be? They should lift our eyes up from ourselves, to God and who he is, to Christ and how he has paid the price for us and is our advocate even today, and to the Holy Spirit who dwells in us and gives us power for life and godliness. They should bring us to worship, to be more devoted to our great God and Savior.

If you think you have difficulties, learn from one who has overcome the hardest with a smile

This was a gift.Good daily devotional. Written by a young lady who has been a quadriplegic since she was 18 years old.

Pearls of Great Price devotional

Joni's messages are uplifting and Christ centered. An excellent read for anyone.

It's wonderful!

I absolutely love it! It blesses me immensely every day. I often can't stand to read just one, so I open another (random) part of the book and read at least one more. Each day/page is of course based on a Bible scripture, then Joni adds a wonderfully written message pertaining to that verse from her own personal experience. Joni is a shining example of a Spirit filled and God led Christian, thoroughly devoted to her ministry, and to inviting everyone to accept Christ's offer of salvation. I am adding this devotional to my list of treasured books and resources, buying and keeping multiple copies on hand so I may share it with others as the Holy Spirit leads.

My Favorite Devotional

Joni navigates life with quadriplegia with grace as she fully relies on her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. this devotional is full of vignettes from her own life and others, pointing to "the God of hope found in suffering." She has led a full, productive life, including a lasting marriage, despite being wheelchair bound since 1967. When I am feeling low and want to pull the covers back over my head, Joni's perspective turns my eyes to the Lord. He is where help comes from.

Only 1 page long, and always to the point

I started this Jan 1st, so I'm not quite through the year but I love it. I read Joni's "Diamonds in the Dust" devotional for 2 years in a row before buying this one. I love the fact that the devotionals are only 1 page long -start with a scripture, then a 'story', then Joni's mini sermon on the story( about 2-3 sentences) and then finishes with a 1-2 sentence prayer. I can always find time to read this in the morning, even those mornings when I don't have time to read my Bible first. Joni is always so transparent and humble. I like this so much that I am buying copies to give as gifts.

Publisher's Summary:

Theres a terrifying truth facing todays men, and its caught many off guard. But once that first overwhelming challenge hits, the reality about evil becomes clear: Every one of us is in a fight for our lives.

The enemy is realand so is the danger. But powerful forces convince us to ignore the spiritual war surrounding us. And that willing surrender ensures the total destruction of all we hold dear.

But a new generation of Gods men is beginning to engage with the tools and training to take the fight to the enemy and respond with boldness and duty. This book is the manual for recognizing the deceptions about doing true spiritual battle, realizing the roles men play at the front lines, and rescuing the captives from the enemys stronghold.

Members Reviews:

Beware! Spiritual War Zone.

Always the skeptic, I bought this title with a high level of suspicion as to author???s true motives. Many writers are selling an idea or gimmick that they know will produce sales for their books regardless of their true beliefs. With this in mind, I took on the program that the book instructs on spiritual warfare to a level that I thought would be somewhat easy to succeed at and be rewarding. This was my initial intention and did not do it just for fun. I am not a fanatic or mystic, but a well meaning believer wanting to do battle for good.

What a rookie I turned out to be.

For me, the program outlined in this book turned out to be very real. I cannot go into the details of what is occurring in my own struggle. I need to urgently stress that spiritual warfare is NOT to be taken lightly! This book is NOT for entertainment and may lead some to venture in over their heads. The opposition is an incredibly capable combatant and you may not always win in the engagement. Keep in mind that in a war some will always perish for the good of the army as a whole. Do YOU have what it takes?

This book can help but is only a guide.

This title does not give any mystical powers, immunity, wealth, success in business, magic mantras, or absolute safety! It is a hard core field guide on war fighting as explained in the Bible itself. This book is fundamentally sound and not just a "new" system invented by the author. It???s the real deal. A militaristic mindset for a very real war.

If you are a true believer and want to risk all for the Kingdom of God then buy this book (after a serious prayer) and apply it to your life. If you are not a believer, do whatever you want as I am not sure what the pros and cons could be.

See you in the trenches!

Title: Nightmare Along Pennsylvania Avenue

Author: Perry Stone

Narrator: Tim Lundeen

Format: Unabridged

Length: 13 hrs and 59 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-22-09

Publisher: Oasis Audio

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 69 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Throughout America's political history, elected leadership has worked diligently to build a nation "of the people, by the people, and for the people." Yet, even as American society was being formed, the founding fathers warned future generations of the possibility that the Republic could take a wrong turn from the path of the Constitution, and destroy the original intent of the founders.

Today we may be experiencing a government that our founding fathers warned about. What's more, this frightening trend can be tied directly to Bible prophecy. America is the end time gentile nation raised up to be a "spiritual Israel" until the days when God would once again restore His chosen people, Israel. America is experiencing change and transition as we enter the time of the end.

From the founding of the nation, to the American Revolution and the Civil War, you will discover America's prophetic destiny is found in parallel stories, Hebrew patterns, and prophetic dates. From the prophecies concerning the presidents to the astonishing patterns of the tabernacle and emblems of the tribes found in America and in Washington, D.C., this audiobook will reveal America's prophetic past, present, and future.

Amazing resource for teachers

We are preparing for a teacher training at church and I felt inadequate to the task. Then I purchased this book--it is AMAZING! It is chock full of practical tips and techniques. Each suggestion is followed by an example of how that technique looks in action. Not only that, but the writing is humorous. The book is a very easy read. Though the writer works with a very large children's program, the tips and techniques are extremely adaptable and applicable. I especially appreciate the emphasis that presentation should not overshadow content. I can't say enough good things about this book. We are going to recommend it to everyone during our teacher training and give a copy away as a raffle prize.

Covers topics including preparation, learning styles, application, relevance, voice, movement, tech, preschool and includes 20 creative techniques to incorporate.

To me that is the mark of a good "how to" book

I have not finished this book yet, but already by the end of chapter three I had picked up some help. To me that is the mark of a good "how to" book. The help I picked up was not dated, but some of what I am reading is dated, so I do not know if this book will stand the test of time. What may date it is that the author bases his teaching on the type of curriculum he is using in his church. He uses a large group/small group type that requires a teaching team. However, I found that I could still extract the principles and apply them to the method of teaching I use in our "one room school house" situation (which is small group/small group). For the time being, even though it was published 7 years ago, there is still enough in here to make it helpful. I found Part 1, "Creating an Atmosphere of Excellence," very challenging and motivational. Part 1 is well done.

Ok book, too much chit chat

Itâs ok, the real points in each chapter could be said in two sentences instead of 5 pages. Found myself skipping pages just to get to the point, thatâs just wasted time and energy and makes one loose focus.

Best CM Improvement book out there!

I am so excited that I purchased this book. First off it came exactly 2 days after I purchased it and I couldn't wait to tear into it. It was chock full excellent insight, methods and thought provoking ideas to improve and grow your children's ministry! Best Children's Ministry Improvement purchase yet! Talented, funny and truly encouraging author, I will be looking out for more of his books!

Fabulous Reinvention of Sunday School

WOW! This book has super duper information followed up by day-to-day insight.

Title: If God Is Good

Subtitle: Faith in the Midst of Suffering and Evil

Author: Randy Alcorn

Narrator: Randy Alcorn

Format: Abridged

Length: 6 hrs and 21 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-15-09

Publisher: Random House Audio

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 23 votes

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Publisher's Summary:

Every one of us will experience suffering. Many of us are experiencing it now. As we have seen in recent years, evil is real in our world, present and close to each one of us.

In such difficult times, suffering and evil beg questions about God. Why would an all-good and all-powerful God create a world full of evil and suffering? And then, how can there be a God if suffering and evil exist?

These are ancient questions, but also modern ones as well. Atheists such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and even former believers like Bart Ehrman answer the question simply: The existence of suffering and evil proves there is no God.

In this captivating new book, best-selling author Randy Alcorn challenges the logic of disbelief, and brings a fresh, realistic, and thoroughly biblical insight to the issues these important questions raise.

Alcorn offers insights from his conversations with men and women whose lives have been torn apart by suffering, and yet whose faith in God burns brighter than ever. He reveals the big picture of who God is and what God is doing in the world, now and forever. And he equips you to share your faith more clearly and genuinely in this world of pain and fear.

As he did in his best-selling book, Heaven, Randy Alcorn delves deep into a profound subject, and through compelling stories, provocative questions and answers, and keen biblical understanding, he brings assurance and hope to all.

Absolutely yes

Any additional comments?

Already listened to it 3 times

A must read!

This book is a must read for those of us who at one time or another questioned the God of the bible on His goodness and mercy. In my opinion Randy more than covers this question. I was very satisfied with the explanations and many examples of reconciling God's love,grace and mercy in light of the world in which we now live.

Inspirational!

This was by far one of the most inspirational, soul healing book I have listened too. I am listening to it for a 2nd time with my husband.

The Best!

Cleared up issues and topics rumbling through my mind for 50 years! Could easily write a 50 page 5 star detailed positive reviews. This is a bona fide MUST READ.

Who narrate better the author? especially Randy Alcorn.

very informative!

Good book. Really puts things into perspective! Better understanding of Bible! love listening to it

Fantastic explanation of events yet to come

This book is certainly a through explanation of "What in the World is Going ON?". I am going to read this book again, but at a much slower pace in order for greater understanding. Thank you Alfred D. Smith

Biblical Prophacy, That's What is Going On

Dr. Jeremiah does it again. A book that is packed with Biblical truth. Thank you pastor.

The most important story ever told

This is the story of how Humans were created, by God and allowed to live in Eden until they sinned against God and were cast out of the Garden to Earth. How we were forgiven our original sin by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and have watched and longed for Christ's second coming when evil will be vanquished and righteous in Christ will be forgiven and allowed to live with Christ in Heaven forever. Good evidence is given this may be coming very soon. We must be ready.

James Pollard

David Jeremiah at his best

Almost finished this book, it's very well written and relevant to the reader, the audio is easy to listen to as well.

Members Reviews:

good, expected more preaching help

Dr mohler likes worldview stuff, and this can be clearly seen in this book. it is a necessary area of discussion in the topic of preaching, especially to a postmodern world, but I thought there was too much in this book. I wish there was more practical advise on preaching. however it is useful to listen to

Excellent book.

Preaching the Word of God is a privilege, and also a great responsibility. In this Dr. Albert Mohler presents a clear description of the role of preaching. He also explains essential aspects of the expository preaching and its importance in the present-day. Ill highly recommend this book.
