Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Three messages Scripture never meant to separate - being born again, staying watchful while you wait, and recognizing the signs Jesus said would mark the end. Each one answers a different part of the same question: are you ready to meet Jesus Part One walks through Jesus' own words to Nicodemus about what it means to be born from above - and why nothing else can substitute for it. Part Two turns to the daily posture of watching, praying, and staying ready for as long as the wait lasts. Part Three follows Jesus' own answer in Matthew 24 to the question His disciples asked on the Mount of Olives - what the signs would be, and what it means to be ready when they appear.89 pages, sixteen chapters across three parts, closing with a prayer of watchfulness and readiness, and a clear invitation for anyone who has never given their life to Jesus Christ.'Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work.' - Revelation 22:12.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - CURATED is a reflection on what it means to live intentionally with God in the middle of an ordinary, changing life.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The battle is real. But the battle is not the center. Jesus is.The Grand Adventure of the Narrow Road begins where No Neutral Ground ended.Dan Muhlenkamp had awakened to the reality of spiritual warfare, the danger of drift, the narrow road, the wide road, and the eternal weight of ordinary life. But somewhere along the way, something had gone wrong.The battle had become so loud that he had nearly lost sight of the King.What followed was not the outward mission he expected.Jesus turned the Light inward.Into his marriage.Into his fears.Into his attempts to lead and control.Into places he had hidden even from himself.And there, Dan began discovering that the narrow road is not merely a road of discipline, sacrifice, and spiritual warfare.It is the grand adventure of learning to surrender, love, trust, fall, rise, and follow Jesus wherever He leads.This is not a manual or a polished account written from the far side of understanding. It is the story of a man still being corrected, forgiven, humbled, and led.A story about marriage, surrender, hidden sin, mercy, spiritual warfare, and the astonishing patience of Jesus.For the Christian man who knows the battle is real but wonders whether following Jesus has become heavier than joyful, this book offers a different vision: The Cross is real. The road is narrow. The stakes are eternal.And still-it is an adventure worth giving your whole life to.…

Neuware - What if being 'nice' is costing you more than you realize You say yes when you want to say no.You replay conversations, wondering if you upset someone.You feel responsible for other people's moods.You overexplain your boundaries.And when you finally choose yourself, guilt makes you question whether you were wrong.You may call it kindness.But sometimes, kindness has quietly become self-abandonment.WHEN BEING NICE COSTS YOU is a compassionate, practical guide for anyone who is tired of overgiving, seeking approval, avoiding disappointment, and feeling guilty for having needs of their own.Rather than teaching you to become colder, tougher, or less caring, Miya Kuan explores a different possibility: You can be kind without disappearing.Through relatable situations, practical reflection exercises, boundary scripts, and the signature Kindness / Fear Test, you'll learn how to recognize when generosity is coming from genuine choice-and when it is being driven by fear of rejection, conflict, guilt, or disapproval.Inside, you'll explore how to: - Stop giving an automatic yes before considering what you actually want- Recognize the hidden beliefs behind people-pleasing- Separate other people's emotions from your responsibility- Stop depending on approval to feel secure in your choices- Understand the difference between healthy guilt and old-pattern guilt- Set clear boundaries without becoming cold or unnecessarily harsh- Let people be disappointed without immediately trying to fix it- Replace overexplaining with calm, honest communication- Build self-trust through small everyday choices- Redefine kindness so that you are included in it tooThis is not a book about caring less.It is about learning to care without abandoning yourself.Because a healthy relationship should have room for two people-and one of them is you.The Unlearning Series - Book Two.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - What if the people who trigger you most are revealing something you have never learned to see in yourself For years, Miya Kuan believed that achievement, approval, being chosen, and being understood would finally make her feel enough.But beneath the ambition and independence were quieter patterns: comparison, fear of rejection, the need for validation, emotional reactions she did not fully understand, and old beliefs formed long before she knew they were shaping her life.The Person I Used to Be is an intimate journey into what happens when you stop asking only 'Why did they do this to me ' and begin asking a more powerful question: 'What is this showing me about myself 'Through personal reflection, practical exercises, and memorable frameworks, this book explores how childhood beliefs become adult patterns, why certain people trigger us so deeply, how we confuse external validation with self-worth, and why healing requires both compassion and responsibility.Inside, you'll explore how to: - Recognize the beliefs and emotional patterns you learned early in life- Understand why certain people and situations trigger you- Separate present reality from old emotional stories- Stop seeking your worth through achievement, approval, and being chosen- Pause before reacting and respond with greater self-awareness- Heal the parts of yourself you once judged or abandoned- Take responsibility without blaming yourself for everything- Build healthier boundaries without losing compassion- Release resentment, control, and expectations you can no longer carry- Make peace with the person you used to beThis isn't a book about becoming perfect.It's about understanding why you became who you became-and realizing that your past may explain your patterns without having to decide your future.You don't have to hate the person you used to be in order to outgrow her.You only have to see her clearly enough to choose differently.The Person I Used to Be is Book One of The Becoming Series, a journey from understanding your past to consciously choosing who you become next.…

When your manager is away, the week holds together. And still nobody has said the word promotion.What turns that into a title is smaller and stranger than most people imagine.

Mountains cross valleys in the night, villages follow walking orchards, and licensed ground-dancers force stone to hold still by taking its motion into their own bones.Twelve years after an imperial choreography saved a road and buried a district, Tavra Ilen cuts work shoes while hiding her imperial past and the stone in her knees slowly hardens.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - You can read any story in this book out loud in about four minutes. That is the whole design. Four minutes is roughly as long as someone will listen without losing the thread, and short enough that you can read one, talk for a while, and read another. Forty stories set in ordinary American life in the 1950s and 60s. A book of Green Stamps saved for a toaster. A party line where the neighbor listened to every call. The milkman's horse that knew the route better than the milkman did. The night the television arrived and nineteen people came over to look at it. Sheets frozen stiff on the line in January. A first car bought for seventy five dollars with a hole in the floor. THREE QUESTIONS AFTER EVERY STORY Each story is followed by its own page headed Something to Talk About, with three questions on it and nothing else. Not a quiz and not a memory test. There are no right answers and nobody has to say anything. They are there for the moment when the story ends and neither of you knows what to say next. SET IN 16 POINT TYPE, AND IT SAYS SO The Library of Congress says large print is most commonly 16 to 18 point. This book is set in 16 point, on cream paper, generously spaced. Most large print books never tell you the size. This one does, on the cover and inside, so you are not guessing. Every page is numbered, front to back, and the page numbers in the contents are the real ones. You can stop in the middle of a story and find your way back.

Read them in any order. Nothing follows on from anything else.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'I have value, therefore my choices must be affirmed.'It is a true statement joined to a deeply destructive conclusion.Why does a culture so loudly obsessed with 'human dignity' feel so fragile, anxious, and deeply insecure We are living in what writer Elton Trueblood called a 'cut-flower civilization.' We demand the beautiful, fragrant blossoms of Christian morality-compassion, universal value, and human dignity-while aggressively cutting ourselves off from the Creator root that keeps those virtues alive.In When Woke Is Broke: When Value Becomes Entitlement, Rev. Wade McLennan delivers a direct, deeply pastoral, and shepherding diagnosis of the modern entitlement crisis. He exposes how modern secular frameworks have plundered a generation, teaching young adults to sever their God-given worth from personal responsibility. The result is a fragile, 'orphan' way of thinking where: - Correction is heard as rejection.- Ordinary discomfort is labeled as harm.- Service and authority are viewed as exploitation.- Maturity and responsibility are continually postponed.But there is still a road to freedom.This is not a book of cultural grievances or political anger. It is a warm, grace-filled invitation to step out of the exhausting trap of self-invention and back into the secure, life-giving order of God. Grounded in the biblical truth of the imago Dei (the image of God), this book reveals that your worth is a gift to be received from the Father, not a status you must manufacture or defend.Inside, you will discover: - The Cut-Flower Diagnosis: Why secular moral movements cannot sustain the very human rights and dignity they claim to champion.- Affirmation vs. Approval: How the pattern of Jesus' baptism in the Jordan reveals the difference between the Father's secure affirmation of our identity and His loving correction of our conduct.- The 'Doctrine of Nothing' How to identify and break free from vague, broad spiritual intentions that keep us from taking concrete, daily steps of obedience.- The Way Back for the Spheres: Practical roadmaps to restore the generational bridge, reclaim the pulpit, rebuild fatherhood, establish the home as a training ground, and bring equal dignity into public life.Who this book is for: - Parents and Grandparents looking for shepherding tools to guide young adults through a screen-dominated, anxious culture.- Pastors and Ministry Leaders seeking to preach a holy grace that both forgives and actively trains believers in mature discipleship.- Anyone who feels the weight of cultural exhaustion and is ready to lay down their defensive shields, receive the secure love of the Father, and take the next faithful step of obedience.…
