How People Change: How Christ Changes Us By His Grace (Vantage Point Book Ser.)
by Timothy S. Lane Paul David TrippA changed heart is the bright promise of the gospel.When the Bible talks about the gift of a new heart, it doesn't mean a heart that is immediately perfected, but a heart that is capable of being changed. Jesus' work on the cross targets our hearts, our core desires and motivations, and when our hearts change, our behavior changes. It's amazing to watch people who once seemed stuck in a pattern of words, choices, and behaviors start living in a new way as Christ changes their hearts.

Relationships: A Mess Worth Making
by Paul David Tripp Timothy S. LaneWhile skillfully identifying the deeper issues that keep relationships less than they are designed to be, Tim Lane and Paul Tripp show readers how to experience the other side of relationships as well. They convincingly testify of the power of God's presence to bring believers to the place where: Conflicts actually get resolved Tough conversations turn out positive Forgiveness is granted and real love is expressed and shared Casual relationships mature into deep friendships Weaknesses are overlooked and strengths are applauded People are honest without being meanA book about relationships, written within the context of their own friendship, Tim and Paul's new offering is straightforward about the relational disappointments that we all suffer. But they are also optimistic about the power of grace to redeem and restore our relationships. Rather than presenting new or sophisticated techniques to make relationships flourish, the authors instead focus on the basic character qualities that can only be formed in the heart by the gospel."We are called to be people of great character so that when we do come in contact with the world our character shapes and influences those around us. Even though relationships are messy, they are also what God uses to rescue us from ourselves," say Tim and Paul.
The Road to Character
by David Brooks"I wrote this book not sure I could follow the road to character, but I wanted at least to know what the road looks like and how other people have trodden it."--David Brooks<P><P> With the wisdom, humor, curiosity, and sharp insights that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous bestsellers, David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. In The Social Animal, he explored the neuroscience of human connection and how we can flourish together. Now, in The Road to Character, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our lives. Responding to what he calls the culture of the Big Me, which emphasizes external success, Brooks challenges us, and himself, to rebalance the scales between our "résumé virtues"--achieving wealth, fame, and status--and our "eulogy virtues," those that exist at the core of our being: kindness, bravery, honesty, or faithfulness, focusing on what kind of relationships we have formed.<P> Looking to some of the world's greatest thinkers and inspiring leaders, Brooks explores how, through internal struggle and a sense of their own limitations, they have built a strong inner character. Labor activist Frances Perkins understood the need to suppress parts of herself so that she could be an instrument in a larger cause. Dwight Eisenhower organized his life not around impulsive self-expression but considered self-restraint. Dorothy Day, a devout Catholic convert and champion of the poor, learned as a young woman the vocabulary of simplicity and surrender. Civil rights pioneers A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin learned reticence and the logic of self-discipline, the need to distrust oneself even while waging a noble crusade.<P> Blending psychology, politics, spirituality, and confessional, The Road to Character provides an opportunity for us to rethink our priorities, and strive to build rich inner lives marked by humility and moral depth.<P> "Joy," David Brooks writes, "is a byproduct experienced by people who are aiming for something else. But it comes."

matrimonio vertical: Abraza el secreto que enriquecerá tu matrimonio
by Dave And Wilson John DriverEl matrimonio vertical relata en español, la experiencia y el viaje de la pareja hacia la sinceridad, el arrepentimiento, la perspectiva y, en última instancia, descubrir el secreto que puede transformar cualquier matrimonio en lo que Dios lo diseñó.La dolorosa y franca confesión de Ann a Dave respecto al verdadero estado de su matrimonio se produjo en el aparcamiento donde ellos pronto ayudarían a iniciar una nueva iglesia. Habían salido a celebrar su décimo aniversario de bodas.A pesar de los planes de Dave para que fuera una noche romántica, Ann expresó la profundidad de su desdicha que le había pasado inadvertida a su esposo, quien nunca sospechó el dolor de ella. A través de las lágrimas de Ann, Dave podía oír el susurro de la voz de Dios, que luchaba con sus propias palabras en un intento por defenderse.Cierra la boca y escucha.Lo que Dave oyó de labios de su amada esposa fue difícil de digerir, pero —tal y como iba quedando manifiestamente claro— ella tenía razón. Al estar iniciando Dave y Ann una iglesia, y al servir él como capellán de los Detroit Lions, su vida se había convertido en reuniones constantes, en estudios bíblicos, en consejería, en mentorías privadas y en viajes. Nunca estaba en casa, se esforzaba al máximo para servir a todos, pero estaba descuidando a Ann y a sus hijos. Ella sentía que él ya no interactuaba con ella en su matrimonio ni en la crianza de sus tres hijos pequeños.El enojo de Ann se transformó en amargura, hasta llegar al punto de que a ella ya no le importaba que él estuviera de viaje. Y el que David fuera completamente ajeno a sus problemas no ayudaba en nada; de modo que ella sentía que a él no le importaba. Este es un problema que muchos matrimonios afrontan de una forma u otra. Pero en medio de esta dolorosa conversación que podría haber puesto punto final a todo, Dios volvió a susurrarle a Dave.En el asiento delantero de su vetusto vehículo, Dave oró en voz alta y se arrepintió ante Dios al darse cuenta de que su relación con él se había enfriado ahora. Se arrepintió por no ser el esposo y el padre que Ann y sus hijos necesitaban. Dios iluminó su corazón con un sencillo secreto del matrimonio que, sin embargo, él había pasado por alto a menudo: solo se puede mantener una relación personal “horizontal” saludable entre un esposo y su esposa cuando la relación personal “vertical” con Cristo está viva y saludable.Lleno de autenticidad, humor, principios bíblicos y relatos contundentes, Dave y Ann revelan el plan de Dios para el matrimonio para todo aquel que está casado, se esté preparando para el matrimonio, o esté desesperado por salvar un matrimonio que se encuentra al borde del desastre. Esta pareja sincera e imperfecta (como el resto de nosotros) revela por qué el matrimonio es tan difícil... y mediante su propia narración personal de los altibajos matrimoniales, revelan el secreto elusivo para hallar y disfrutar del gozo y de la transformación relacional para los cuales Dios nos ha diseñado, con tanta gracia, a cada de uno de nosotros.
Buy the Change You Want to See: Use Your Purchasing Power to Make the World a Better Place
by Jane Mosbacher Morris Wendy ParisEager to change the world? Learn how you can have a greater social impact through your everyday purchases.The money we routinely spend on food, clothes, gifts, and even indulgences is an untapped superpower. What would happen if we slowed down to make more thoughtful decisions about what we buy? For "mom and pop" stores across the country, and artisan and agricultural communities around the world, every purchase matters.Consumers--whether individuals, small businesses, or corporations--are paying more attention than ever to how their goods are made; and retailers--large and small--are responding by investing in ethical and eco-friendly production. Yet figuring out which brands to support can feel overwhelming. Jane Mosbacher Morris has devoted her career to creating economic opportunities for vulnerable communities around the world, and in this valuable book, she shares her passion and insights on how we, as consumers, can create positive change too. Covering topics that range from why not all factories are evil, to how our morning coffee can be the easiest way for us to use our purchasing power for good, Buy the Change You Want to See makes us better informed consumers. Morris tells inspiring stories about how victims of human trafficking and natural disasters have been empowered by economic opportunity, and she offers practical ideas about how we can support these communities through our purchases--whether it comes to jewelry made from recycled materials in Haiti, sustainably grown and ethically sourced coffee and chocolate from farmers in some of the poorest regions of the world, or mass-produced jeans and shoes made in factories where workers are guaranteed decent working conditions and a fair wage.
The Whole Life: Finding God's Rhythm for Your Spirit, Soul, and Body
by David StineInspired by 1 Thessalonians 5:23, this new book from Pastor David Stine focuses on the three parts of your being—the spirit, the soul, and the body—and shows how you can experience a balanced and more fulfilled life when you take care of all three. Pastor David Stine was the head of a growing church in the nation’s capital. He was seeing exponential church growth and reaching hearts and minds for God. But inside, he felt spiritually dry. He was burnt out. His health suffered, and his preaching became uninspired. Then, one day he read 1 Thessalonians 5:23 in a way he never had before. The verse, he now saw, clearly indicated that were three parts to the human self—the spirit, the soul, and the physical body. He had only been focusing on one part and realized his life was seriously out of balance with the way God intended. As soon as Pastor Stine began to focus on his emotional well-being and physical health in addition to his spiritual fitness, everything changed. He began to see that all three elements are interconnected and necessary for a vibrant Christian life. Divided into three sections, The Whole Life is a practical guide to leading an empowered and balanced life. The Spiritual Formation section discusses the importance of Prayer, the need to read scripture regularly, and the necessity of having a God-sized dream to guide you. The Soul Care section covers your mind, your emotions, and your desires, while the Body Health sections discusses nutrition, exercise, and rest. In each section, Pastor Stine helps you identify where you are thriving and where you are depriving yourself so that you can achieve a healthy whole body and, in turn, a whole life. Providing practical and inspiring ways to feed and nurture yourself, Pastor Stine guides you to discover how you, too, can have a whole, balanced life in Christ.

by Miki AgrawalFrom the co-founder of THINX and hellotushy.com, start-ups collectively valued at more than $150 million, comes DISRUPT-HER, a rallying cry for women to radically question the status quo.Miki Agrawal has faced patriarchal pushback, fought girl-on-girl hate, ridden the roller coaster of building businesses as a female CEO, and even overcome an attempt to burn her for witchcraft (figuratively).In order to navigate the complicated--at times maddening--struggles of contemporary femininity, we need an unabashed manifesto for the modern woman that inspires us to move past outrage and take positive steps on the personal, professional, and societal levels.This manifesto galvanizes us to action in 13 major areas of our lives with as much fire power as possible.

It's a whole body F*CK YES to your work, your love, your relationships, and your mission--while doing it all authentically, unapologetically, and with full integrity.
