Are you ready to take your running to the next level?
I don’t mean physically; I mean spiritually. God’s word tells us whatever we do, we do in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to the Father, for the glory of God. (Colossians 3:7; 1 Corinthians 10:31.) That includes running. Running can be a lonely activity, but with Jesus, you’ll always have company. I’ve been learning to see His hand in every stride, and you can too.
Running for the Glory of God is a 40-day devotional written to motivate and inspire you to run to glorify God. Each devotional begins with a story connected to running or racing, and then uses Scripture to draw out spiritual lessons.
If you’re a runner and you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, this book will encourage you on your running journey and your spiritual journey. If you’re not a believer, or if you’ve allowed yourself to drift from Jesus over the years, this book is for you, even if you’re not a runner. It’s time to get off the couch and get back in spiritual shape. Let’s toe the starting line and get ready to run. The gun is about to go off.
Running For The
Glory of God
Don't Be a Hypocrite (and Other Lessons I'm Still Learning from the Sermon on the Mount)
You’ve probably read the Sermon on the Mount and thought, “Was Jesus serious? Who can possibly obey this?” Jesus preached this sermon on a hillside by the Sea of Galilee two thousand years ago to confront the world’s value system, and to teach about the kingdom of heaven. His audience listened with awe as Jesus systematically dismantled the teaching of the scribes and Pharisees. He taught the values and attitudes that true citizens of the kingdom heaven possess. It makes us question not only everything we do, but every motive behind it. It’s the greatest sermon ever preached, but hard to understand and apply to our lives. Like a surgeon, Jesus cuts us deep to heal us. His message to us is simple, “Do Not Be Like the Hypocrites.” A kingdom citizen must be different. This book divides the Sermon on the Mount into 24 bite-sized chapters. Each one explains Jesus’s teaching and gives practical applications for living Jesus’s way. In studying it, we learn how much we need Jesus, and how to become more like Jesus. Could there be more worthwhile goals?
This Is God's Plan?!
How We Can Be Certain in Days of Uncertainty
Is THIS God’s Plan?
Are you wondering how disease, disunity, disorder, disappointment, and disaster can be part of a loving God’s plan for the world? If you are, this book is for you.
God is good, all-powerful, and has a plan. It’s hard to see by looking at the world today. Let’s face it. The world is a mess. How can we possibly make sense of it?
If you are a Christian and struggling with doubt, this book may strengthen your wavering faith in these uncertain days. If you’re on the fence, maybe believing in a God who permits evil and suffering is hard for you. If you’re willing to consider the possibility that God exists and is working out His plan, this book is for you. God is much bigger than any single event He allows. By studying God’s works in creation, the Fall, redemption, and the prophecy of promised future restoration, we can have confidence that He is in control.
Do you want peace in this turbulent world? You can find it by understanding God’s eternal plan.
God Is Everywhere
Do you sometimes feel like God is hiding? We can easily become discouraged when it seems like He’s not listening, or when it seems like He’s distant. In those times, we need to train ourselves to recognize God in everyday life. He’s just as present in our most menial tasks as He is in the grandeur of a clear starry sky. These devotionals will help you recognize God’s presence in all you see and do. You’ll be encouraged to know that God is not hiding. God is Everywhere!
