Book Description
“I challenge you to get through a chapter of this book without a desire for God being struck in your soul. Roger Owens wears his brilliance lightly and loves words tenderly and lavishly in these pages. He is ferociously gifted, and fast becoming one of the abbas to whom the reading church often turns for a word from the Lord.” —Jason Byassee, senior pastor of Boone United Methodist Church and Fellow in Theology & Leadership at Duke Divinity School With a style and warmth of presentation that will remind readers of Henri Nouwen’s most popular work, Abba Give Me a Word interweaves the author’s personal stories of struggle – and transformation – with reflections on the history and purpose of spiritual direction. The result is a wise introduction to an ancient art and practice of “soul care” – directed at Christians of all backgrounds.

Are you struggling to accept God’s love? We’ve bought into the lie that we are worthy of God’s love only when our lives are going well.

Pages : 240

Book Description
Your brokenness is the key to knowing God as Father. God has an identity. He does not want to be known as a higher power or confined to our limited understanding and judgment of Him. Those who want to know the name of God—and most importantly want to know God as He desires to be known—can discover him as Abba. Matthew L. Stevenson III captures all the teachings of Jesus that demonstrated the Father. This book also highlights how aggressively Satan distorts the father role to fracture people’s lives in the areas of: • Identity • Security • Failures • Confidence Abba addresses the key to a more fulfilling worship life as well as understanding God’s heart toward the fatherless. A revelation of the father heart of God is needed more now than ever.

Pages : 172

Book Description
In Abba's Way, Jesus returns to set the world's religions straight. Abba is the shockingly-familiar Aramaic name for God that Jesus uses in the Lord's Prayer. Jesus argues that this very Abba is within each of us, ready to change our lives for the better. If we only have eyes to see. In 70 brief poetic essays, Jesus explains how we can move the world from its present violent precipice to a global society built around negotiation, individual achievement and openness to the presence of Abba in each person. On the occasion of the publication of Stephen C. Rose's 'The Grass Roots Church", The New York Times called the author a new Martin Luther whose theses might change today's world.
