Book Description
"Debra Brawner has beautifully illustrated in her stories, biblical wisdom, and family-pleasing recipes that the art of cooking is not lost. Our ever-present time crunch and the availability of restaurants and prepared foods have led some straight out of the kitchen, but Debra gently leads us right back, into the pleasure of cooking. She stirs not only the comforting pot of soup, but our souls as well. She cooks up far more than delicious food, but that which satisfies and strengthens the soul and spirit. "I love her tour through the biblical fruits of the Spirit and her recipes that they inspire. Here is a book showcasing the heart of God toward us, with a practical guide to good food. God creates the fruit and then puts it into the hands of His people like Debra to prepare it and dish it out to a hurting world. "It is wonderful to observe and experience the fruit of the Spirit growing in a person. It produces a renewed heart, a different way of thinking and good will toward God and people. That is a recipe for happiness and fulfilled destiny, and obtainable for each of us as we receive God's love and learn His ways. These wonders are served up within these pages." -Dianne Davis, Southwest US Director for Aglow International

Book Description
From Jan Karon, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Mitford series comes a collection of Father Tim's favorite words of wisdom and spiritual inspiration... For years, Mitford’s Father Tim Kavanagh has transcribed into his dog-eared journals words of wisdom, faith, and encouragement. Written in his own hand or typed on his idiosyncratic Royal typewriter, A Continual Feast contains the lively ideas, common sense, profound wisdom, and plain good humor he has gleaned from the likes of C. S. Lewis, Emily Dickinson, William Blake, Helen Keller, G. K. Chesterton, and Will Rogers, to name just a few. Together with its successful companion volume, Patches of Godlight, Father Tim’s latest quote journal is sure proof of the truth of an entry from Lord Byron: "A small drop of ink produces that which makes thousands think." This entertaining and useful handbook is for all those who relish a good “Aha!,” including authors, clergy, speechmakers, dog lovers, and anyone who enjoys provocative insight into everything from the righteous to the ridiculous.

Languages : en
Pages : 390

Book Description
This one-year daily devotional is an invitation—an invitation to come on a fresh and exciting adventure into the Word of God. It is an invitation to enter into a deeper, more intimate relationship with your Heavenly Father—the One who made you, and wants you, and loves you like no other. It is an invitation to enter into the peace, and joy, and protection, and provision, and purpose of an abundant life that can only be found by having a right relationship with the Father through Christ—a covenant relationship of surrender, trust and obedience. It is a call to live in Truth, and to allow that Truth to set you free to be everything that God has called you to be. God’s Word has an answer to every situation and circumstance of your life, and this devotional explores many of those answers, as it moves you from fear to faith, from doubt to belief, from despair to hope, from darkness to light, from the lies of the enemy to the truth of God’s unrelenting, unending, unfailing, and passionate love for you! Each day’s devotion focuses on a particular passage from the Bible, and uses the truth found in the passage to offer a prayer for God’s help in correctly understanding and rightly applying that truth to your life. As you move through the year, each new day will bring new insights into who God is and all that He has done for you. It will also reveal who you are in Christ—so you can courageously and confidently do all things that that He asks of you, knowing your strength is found in Him alone. This devotional will change your life—because you cannot come to knowledge of the Truth of the Word of God and not be changed. The way that you allow it to change your life will depend largely on the choices that you make when confronted with the Truth. Use this devotional to help you choose wisely God’s very best path for you—and know that He always has your best interests at heart.
