Popular author James W. Moore recalls how several years ago, while delivering the sermon at his church one Sunday morning, he had told a moving story about a boy and his dog. The author's then-five-year-old son, Jeff, was fascinated by the story, but feeling a bit uncertain about some of the details of it, during the family's car ride home from church, Jeff asked his father, "e;Daddy, is that story true, or were you just preaching?"e;Highly amused by Jeff's question, Jim Moore went on to explain to his young son that there are two kinds of stories: TRUE stories, stories that happened factually in history; and TRUTH stories, stories like Jesus' parables, which are shared to underscore a dramatic truth in life.The several short chapters and stories in this book are designed to highlight such life-truths, with chapter titles such as "e;Go out Singing,"e; "e;Roadblocks,"e; "e;Should I Forgive?"e; "e;One Step at a Time,"e; "e;Who's in Control Here?"e; "e;What Can One Person Do?"e; "e;Tell Me, Please, How to Be Happy,"e; "e;Why not You?"e; "e;Keep on Keeping On,"e; "e;Jesus: The Message and the Messenger,"e; "e;The Importance of Uniqueness,"e; and others. This book contains a discussion guide.

Celebrate the 20th Anniversary of this beloved, never out of print, James Moore book with this special edition that includes a new introduction by the author. Why do we try to justify anything and everything we want to do? We use words, scapegoats, blaming other people, circumstances, past events, even evil spirits ( the devil made me do it! ) to attempt to excuse bad choices we make with our own free will. Moore challenges readers to recognize such situations and to grow beyond them. He addresses such sin as half-heartedness, spiritual arrogance, deception, overreaction, hostility, presumptuousness, losing spiritual balance, and more. He reminds us what our faith tells us about excuses, which is God . . . sees through. is more interested in forgiving us than in hearing our excuses. wants penitence not excuses from us. In his warm, embracing style, James Moore encourages us to seek forgiveness. After all, we are justified by the grace of a loving, caring, forgiving, God and not our eloquent excuses. Perfect as a 12 session small group study using the Leader Guide in back."

In the words of author James W. Moore:When the world takes the wind out of our sails and we feel down and out, we want someone to help us, to reassure us, to encourage us, to deliver us, to save us. We want some word of "e;good news."e; We want someone with love and strength to hold us up and see us through. That is precisely where the Christian faith comes in, and that is precisely what the Christian faith is about.Sometimes in this life, the world is going to take the wind out of our sails and knock us flat. But even then, we can be courageous because we know that God is always with us and will see us through. As Christians, we have the sure confidence that nothing, not even death, can separate us from God's presence, God's care, God's strength, God's love, and God's victory!So as we deal with the troubles of this world, may God help us to know the courage and faith and blessed assurance that come only from trust in our Lord and Savior, the One who has overcome the world.This book contains 12 chapters and a discussion guide.

Sooner or later, heartache comes to everyone. Sadness, sorrow, disappointment, mourning, grief-whatever people call it-is a fact of life. People need help in knowing how to deal with grief, how to work through it, and how to grow because of it. In When Grief Breaks Your Heart, best-selling author James W. Moore explores two major questions: What does faith say about the grief experience? How does faith help mend a broken heart? The book, therefore, is about grief and grace. Moore shows how these two words belong together: God's grace sustains people through the grief experience God's love supports people when they have nowhere else to turn God's grace brings the healing touch people so desperately need when their hearts are crushed.The book is appropriate for anyone who is experiencing grief. Pastors especially will find it helpful to keep a quantity on hand to pass out to people during grief experiences and grief counseling.
