Book Description
Lady Casterton is found strangled in her bedroom shortly after seven when her housekeeper went to discover why her employer had not appeared for dinner. From an examination of the body, it was clear that she had been killed a little after six at the very earliest. Suspicion naturally fell onto her nephew, her inheritor, with whom relations had been strained in recent weeks. He would have looked like a prime suspect, were it not for the testimony of the housekeeper. But then the nephew turns up dead in a locked room. The question for John Handful is, who murdered the murderer?

Lenten Healing

Author: Ken Kniepmann
Publisher: Ave Maria Press
ISBN: 1594717966
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 192

Book Description
Based on the popular spiritual healing program designed by Bob Schuchts and the John Paul II Healing Center, Lenten Healing offers a twist to traditional Lenten fasting: instead of giving up chocolate, give up your sin. This daily Lenten devotional offers a unique approach to fasting, helping you reexamine the psychological and spiritual roots of sin in your life while sharing reflections and prayer exercises for overcoming sinful habits and acquiring virtuous ones. Lent is the ideal time to identify and address "spiritual blind spots"—unacknowledged emotional wounds and false ideas that hinder your prayer life and worship. During each week of Lent, Ken Kniepmann of the John Paul II Healing Center breaks open one of the seven deadly sins (pride, lust, gluttony, sloth, anger, envy, and greed) and its corresponding virtue (humility, chastity, abstinence, diligence, patience, kindness, and liberality). You'll start by learning about the sin and how it manifests itself in daily life and thought patterns. Then you'll move into reflection and prayer exercises that guide you through the process of renouncing that week's sin and resolving to adopt that week's virtue. Fasting, the practice of giving up pleasures or comforts, allows us to grow in holiness by putting our desires to a kind of death. Obvious examples include giving up a habit such as a favorite food, sleeping in, or late-night TV—but what happens when you try to give up your sins while recognizing the deeper reasons you commit them in the first place? By seeing those connections and praying specifically for God's insight, healing, and revelation, you’ll be able to experience God’s mercy and love to a greater capacity. Kniepmann helps you see how the depth of Catholic teaching is connected to your daily life. Sin isn't just an activity; it is a place of the heart (the interior life) and the movement of the heart (toward or away from sin) as related to thoughts, beliefs, and emotions. By the time Easter arrives, you'll possess a deeper understanding of sin and emotional wounds as impediments to intimacy with God and come away with tangible, practical tools for addressing those impediments in your life.

The Psalms(Volume 2, Psalms 1–50)

Author: Christopher Ash
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433563924
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 626

Book Description
Commentary from Christopher Ash Sets Out a Deeply Christian Study of Psalms 1–50 While reading Psalms, it is common for commentaries to focus on Old Testament meaning, without connecting it deeply to Christ's fulfillment in the New Testament. By studying Scripture this way, believers miss out on the fullness of God's word. The key to experiencing authentically Christian worship is learning a Christ-focused approach to praying and singing the Psalms. In this thorough commentary, Christopher Ash provides a careful treatment of Psalms 1–50, examining each psalm's significance to David and the other psalmists, to Jesus during his earthly ministry, and to the church of Christ in every age. Ash includes introductory quotations, a deep analysis of the text's structure and vocabulary, and a closing reflection and response, along with selected quotations from older readings of the Psalms. Perfect for pastors, Bible teachers, and students, this commentary helps readers sing and pray the Psalms with Christ in view. Exhaustive: Christopher Ash's exegesis explores how the Psalms are quoted and echoed throughout the New Testament Applicable and Heartfelt: Explains how a Christ-centered approach to reading the Psalms influences doctrines of prayer, prophecy, the Trinity, ecclesiology, and more Ideal for Pastors and Serious Students of Scripture: Written for Bible teachers, Sunday school and youth leaders, and small-group leaders

Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 946

Book Description
Today's Scripture Guidance contains daily Scripture from the Word of God to guide Believers and those who want to have detailed Holy Spirit guidance. Each daily Scripture is received from God through the servant of Jesus prayer to Him. The servant of Jesus surrenders to Jesus in prayer each day, asking Him to utilize the Holy Spirit to meet God and receive the Scripture that God wants His people to read that day. The servant of Jesus also asks that Jesus calls the Holy Spirit to send Spirit-taught words through the servant, that gives Spirit guidance of the very Word of God. This prayer and surrender process is done by the servant of Jesus each day so that every single day of Scripture is from God, and every single day of guidance to the Word of God is from the Holy Spirit. The Word and the guidance of God's Word is not from the servant of Jesus but is delivered through the servant of Jesus. This is the work that Jesus has called this servant to do. Amen. Today's Scripture Guidance is from the very Word of God. It is spoken boldly with Spirit-taught words. The guidance is there each day to help the readers of God's Word, understand the mystery of His Word, through words delivered by the Holy Spirit. Today's Scripture Guidance delivers daily reading and guidance to strengthen your understanding of the Word of God and to guide you through living your life in a way that pleases God. This Guidance will help you to truly understand the Word of God. Each day the Word was selected by God, and the guidance was delivered with Spirit taught Words from the Holy Spirit! Hallelujah!
