2,000 years ago footprints appeared in the sands of Israel. They belonged to a very special person who called himself the Son of God. Jesus walked with his disciples and revealed God to them. He wanted everyone to grasp the love, grace and power of his Father in heaven. Walking beside Jesus was an ex-tax collector named Matthew. He experienced Jesus in a very personal way. He was led by the Spirit of God to write a book and tell Jesus'' story. We call that book the Gospel of Matthew. Walking with Matthew is a devotional study built on Matthew''s Gospel. In this study one will read through the entire book of Matthew in a little over 100 readings and be encouraged to pray and grow closer to Jesus. Christianity is about the most important relationship each one must have - a personal relationship with Jesus.

What does it mean to exemplify Christian love? In a society that is more self-centered than God-centered, it is hard to locate those who are demonstrating godly love to others, with pure hearts. However, when we believe Jesus is our salvation from sin, we are given help from the Holy Spirit to express this love to others. In the third book by author Tom Hanson, And Yet I Show You a More Excellent Way, understanding the Word of God, for what agape love from God is compared to human love, is sought. Tom provides biblical commentary on what God considers agape love, which is enhanced when a believer allows the Holy Spirit, the Helper, to come into their lives and relationships and re-direct them as vessels of God. With God at the forefront of our relationships with Jesus, guided by the Holy Spirit, we will embody Christian love to others.

Everyone has purpose and value but it cannot be understood or fully appreciated until you become your best self. You are brilliant, wonderful, and completely good. Mistakes you may have made, even if they were yesterday, were done with the knowledge and skills you had at that time. Now that you are wiser, it is no longer relevant to consider past actions today; yesterday is gone and cannot be re-lived. Failure to become your highest self will ultimately cause confusion, deep unhappiness and negatively impact every aspect of your life. Perhaps worse - never becoming who you were destined to be, you degenerate and suffer unnecessary mental, physical, emotional or spiritual "dis-ease". Everything has a non-physical source and at the root of any negative condition is some sort of trauma. These wounds continue to upset, long after their beginning because of failure to properly manage them. Sadness and stress have become constant companions that keep you from thinking clearly and your errors in judgement cause destructive emotions. This does not have to continue; you have a choice. You can be restored to your pre-upset, non-angry state. This book is an important and engaging resource for those, who were raised in an unhappy home, single parent household, or are currently without active parental guidance and desire to learn the attributes they possess that would enable them to become their best and highest self. Reading this book you will receive: ┬╖ Self-assessment instruments┬╖ Guidelines for optimal health┬╖ 29 spiritual tools┬╖ Reminders of your significance and value┬╖ Insights for a successful journey We all have two simultaneous journeys; an external one where the body lives moves and has its being. The other trip is within, if we so choose, to higher consciousness; or by default a continued descent into a deeper hypnotic trance. The search for wisdom and higher consciousness is the essential journey of life and it must be taken alone; parents, loved ones and leaders can only point the way. You will never experience an abundant live with peace and joy until you become your highest self. There is no such thing as coincidence! This book is meant for you.

The Bible tells us that all are sinners in need of a Savior. Sin, therefore, does not discriminate between different Christians and their religious denominations. The content of this book represents over thirty years of personal experience, research, observation, study, and prayer; in an effort to demonstrate through the Bible, and through history, that "The One True Church" is not an institutional church or a specific religious denomination, but rather all true believers who belong to the "Body of Christ." Today, many Catholics and non-Catholics alike, struggle to understand Catholic traditions, from a Biblical perspective. Over the centuries the Catholic Church has evolved into a complex religious organization of beliefs, rules, rituals, and requirements; described as "speculative and mystical theology," by a leading Catholic apologist, who says that most Catholics do not fully understand, and can't explain their faith to others. This book can be a useful resource for these and others, who have an interest in understanding what Catholics teach and what Protestants believe. - From the Prologue Joe Weller was born in 1945 into a working class family in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and spent his childhood in the South, in an era when Catholics were a minority, and there was an overt prejudice against blacks, Jews, and Catholics. Joe spent twelve years in the Catholic parochial school system, and later in life was a member of a number of parishes in Memphis, Miami, Dallas, and Los Angeles. Joe shares what he has learned over the last thirty years in his educational journey from the traditions and history of Catholicism, to the teachings of the Bible in; The One True Church: A Biblical Perspective on Catholic Tradition and History. Joe's desire is to encourage all those interested in this subject to take their own educational journey through the pages of Scripture, to experience God's amazing truth for themselves.

Four different men wrote biographies about Jesus. Each author wrote in his own style to interest a particular nationality, like musicians would play a particular instrument to suite the culture of a specific area. At times they wrote parts of the life of Jesus almost exactly the same, but many times they used different wording and often did not follow the same sequence of events. This book combines the gospel accounts and fine tunes them to harmonize with each other like different instruments playing together in concert to compose a beautiful symphony. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John wrote the Gospel of Christ in four part harmony so that anyone who chooses can enjoy reading about the life of Jesus in the order that He lived it. Author Bio: Carolyn Walkup Adams wrote this book over a ten year period after graduating from Washington Bible College. Her love for the Word of God and a desire that all people understand His love for all mankind made this possible. Jesus radiated this love throughout His life to everybody He came in contact with. The only people He ever criticized were the self-righteous. His love, even for those who criticized everything He did, is evident throughout this book.

"Chaplain you've got to get down here and help, I can't manage this scene anymore!" "How do we let our son die at so young an age, please help us chaplain!" "I could not have carried on without the chaplain helping me through my toughest life crisis". " There is no manual to consult for direction when called upon to tell a loved one of the sudden death of family member". " The 911 site in New York was so overwhelming that words alone cannot express the gravity of the scene." These are real excerpts from the people involved in the fire profession who called on a chaplain to help. Yet these life experiences are not firefighters alone, everyone has a crisis of some kind, and the Christian is the person who can provide care, comfort and direction at such a time because of the power God provides. It was out of these tragic situations where this chaplain saw how God's miracles were played out. We answer the calls to 9-1-1, yet we ourselves fall victim to life 's crisis. The chaplain is the "go to" person whenever a L.A. County Firefighter needed help from either a professional or personal crisis. The results of these interventions revealed God's power in the outcome of the lives of the people involved, and the fact that miraculous outcomes still occur is testament to that fact.. This book recounts those chaplain interventions, and illustrates the lighter moments in what is involved in being a chaplain in one of the largest fire departments in the country. By God's grace and mercy miracles still happen, you need the right glasses on to see them. This chaplain is giving away those glasses.

Imagine the worst that could happen - the atomic wars in the 21st Century. 200 years after the wars, a Grandfather gives advice to his grandson on the Christian ideals and formulas that allowed a group of Christians and Jews to survive. He also gives the early warnings for the atomic wars, which were sent out by the ancestral grandfather before the start of the wars. The warnings are for any parent who is concerned about the interaction of Judeo-Christian beliefs and secular politics. The warnings are about the waning of Judeo-Christian beliefs and the rise of secular humanism and moral relativism, which lead to the potential for nuclear war between the Muslim nations and western nations. The book gives hope that with Christian beliefs and practices, the true Christian believers will be saved. This book contains the writings of an elderly man living in Cincinnati, Ohio.

It is hoped that these writings will help move young people toward the proper value system to keep the greatness of America going forward, and, as an apocalyptic warning of the dire consequences of secular liberal thinking.

In Behind the Curtain 2, author Marc LeVitre pulls back the curtain once again to reveal the Truth as seen in mainstream movies. These films have been chosen because they have impacted LeVitre on a spiritual level. He delves into such themes as coming-of-age, dealing with the cruel world, sports, the despicable, and Disney. LeVitre also analyzes film that should have been in the first book but were not because they were then too complicated or were not on his radar, and he adds to and/or corrects comments made in the first book. LeVitre, in most cases, ties films to Scripture. However, his Holy Spirit again has led him to explore areas of his life in a few instances. The author had believed the first book would be the last, for about a week. Then God inundated him with what appears in this volume. Since the beginning, LeVitre, a pastor's son, has been looking for the moral of the story, and by doing so, has been entertained, but more importantly, has been enlightened. LeVitre has been proud to call New Hampshire home since 1968.

Rick and Polly Rood began their married life like many other couples--hoping for a life blessed by God, and to be used by Him in His service. Twelve years later, however, their life took an unexpected turn when at age 34 Polly was diagnosed with Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative illness. For the next nineteen years they navigated this unexpected journey, which included Polly's residing in nursing home for the last eleven years of her life. This book recounts their struggles and fears, as well as their persevering hope. More than that, however, it tells the story of how God graciously carried them through these years of affliction. Rick's prayer is that by telling their story many others might find hope in our gracious and merciful God, both for this life and the next.
