Come Home: A Call Back to Faith
by James MacDonaldThe prodigal. The wanderer. The skeptic. The rebel.Each of us knows someone who has walked away from God, and it is heartbreaking and bewildering. We wonder how to reach out to them and bring them back, but often it seems impossible. Maybe you yourself are the one who has walked away and sees little reason to return to faith and the church.This book's invitation is this: Come home. It invites the departed to return and offers the promise of the gospel—that all wrongs and sins can be forgiven through Jesus. There is no expiration on the promise of forgiveness and the open arms of Christ, so no matter how long the wanderer has wandered, he or she is still welcome. All hurts can be healed, all brokenness mended. Just come home.Whether you are a family member or friend of the prodigal, or whether you are that person, this book offers hope and an open invitation to return the safety of forgiveness and restoration in Jesus.

Come Matter Here: Your Invitation to Be Here in a Getting There World
by Hannah Brencher Jess ConnollyFrom viral TED Talk speaker and founder of The World Needs More Love Letters, Hannah Brencher's Come Matter Here is the power read you need to start living like you mean it here and now. Life is scary. Adulting is hard. When faced with the challenges of building a life of your own, it’s all too easy to stake your hope and happiness in “someday.” But what if the dotted lines on the map at your feet today mattered just as much as the destination you dream of? Hannah Brencher, TED Talk speaker and founder of The World Needs More Love Letters, thought Atlanta was her destination. Yet even after she arrived, she found herself in the same old chase for the next best thing…somewhere else. And it left her in a state of anxiety and deep depression. Our hyper-connected era has led us to believe life should be a highlight reel—where what matters most is perfect beauty, instant success, and ready applause. Yet, as Hannah learned, nothing about faith, relationships, or character is instant. So she took up a new mantra: be where your feet are. Give yourself a permission slip to stop chasing the next big thing, and come matter here. Engage the process as much as you trust the God who lovingly leads you.If you are tired of running away from your life or tired of running ragged toward the next thing you think will make you feel complete, Come Matter Here will help you do whatever it takes to show up for the life God has for you. Whether you need to make a brave U-turn, take a bold step forward, or finish the next lap with fresh courage, find fuel and inspiration for the journey right here.
Come Now, Let Us Argue It Out: Counter-Conduct and LGBTQ Evangelical Activism (Anthropology of Contemporary North America)
by Jon Burrow-BranineCome Now, Let Us Argue It Out provides a look into a community that challenges common narratives about what it means to be LGBTQ and Christian in the contemporary United States. Based on his participant-observation fieldwork with a faith-based organization called the Reformation Project, Jon Burrow-Branine provides an ethnography of how some LGBTQ and LGBTQ-supportive Christians negotiate identity and difference and work to create change in evangelicalism.Come Now, Let Us Argue It Out tells the story of how this activism can be understood as a community of counter-conduct. Drawing on a concept proposed by the philosopher and historian Michel Foucault, Burrow-Branine documents everyday moments of agency and resistance that have the potential to form new politics, ethics, and ways of being as individuals in this community navigate the exclusionary politics of mainstream evangelical institutions, culture, and theology. More broadly, Burrow-Branine considers the community&’s ongoing conversation about what it means to be LGBTQ and a Christian, grappling with the politics of inclusion and representation in LGBTQ evangelical activism itself.

Come On Home: Healing the Homesickness of the Soul
by James W. MooreDrawing on Scripture and his own stories, Moore explores how to embrace the New Testament theme that happiness is the by-product of being in “right” relationships, of being “at home” with God and with others. More than once, Jesus reminds us that the Great Commandment is to love God and to love other people. And that is what Matthew 6:33 is all about: “But seek first God’s kingdom and his righteousness and everything else will fall into place for you.” This book contains a discussion guide.

In this book, Coconato shows God&’s remnant warriors how to:Truly be set apart;Refuse to conform to the wickedness of this hour; andTake back the culture for the kingdom of God.

Come Shouting to Zion: African American Protestantism in the American South and British Caribbean to 1830
by Betty Wood Sylvia R. FreyThe conversion of African-born slaves and their descendants to Protestant Christianity marked one of the most important social and intellectual transformations in American history. Come Shouting to Zion is the first comprehensive exploration of the processes by which this remarkable transition occurred. Using an extraordinary array of archival sources, Sylvia Frey and Betty Wood chart the course of religious conversion from the transference of traditional African religions to the New World through the growth of Protestant Christianity in the American South and British Caribbean up to 1830. Come Shouting to Zion depicts religious transformation as a complex reciprocal movement involving black and white Christians. It highlights the role of African American preachers in the conversion process and demonstrates the extent to which African American women were responsible for developing distinctive ritual patterns of worship and divergent moral values within the black spiritual community. Finally, the book sheds light on the ways in which, by serving as a channel for the assimilation of Western culture into the slave quarters, Protestant Christianity helped transform Africans into African Americans.

Come avviare la propria attività essendo cristiano
by Sesan OguntadeCome avviare la propria attività essendo cristiano di Sesan Oguntade Anche se non si dispone di denaro iniziale e con tutti i pronostici a proprio sfavore Usate queste strategie per avviare la vostra attività essendo cristiano, anche se non avete i capitali iniziali Sei un cristiano e hai faticato ad avviare la tua agognata iniziativa imprenditoriale che conservavi nel tuo cuore da molti anni? Se lo sei, questa guida semplice, breve e facile da leggere ti sarà di grande aiuto. Nel mio paese, dopo aver finito di scrivere un libro su come creare la ricchezza, decisi di inserire un breve sondaggio nella prima pagina del libro e la domanda sottostante fu una tra le domande che proposi in quel sondaggio. "Scrivi in tre parole un problema che ti è stato molto difficile da risolvere negli ultimi quattro anni". Ebbene, man mano che la gente comprava e leggeva il libro le risposte arrivavano. Ho scoperto che oltre il 95% dei problemi che i lettori del libro menzionavano di aver trovato difficile da risolvere negli ultimi quattro anni era "non avere un capitale iniziale per avviare la propria attività". Nelle riunioni private con i cristiani che desiderano avviare un’attività, nelle discussioni prevaleva questo stesso argomento. So che per lanciare un'idea per un’attività sono necessari dei mezzi finanziari, ma per esperienza personale e per le esperienze di persone che ho osservato nel corso degli anni, so anche che la mancanza o l'indisponibilità di capitale o di denaro non dovrebbe impedire a nessuno di intraprendere una nuova attività. Molti uomini d'affari di successo di oggi, quando cominciarono lo fecero senza avere il capitale necessario per iniziare. Iniziarono e svilupparono queste attività per trasformarle successivamente in imprese redditizie. Questo breve ebook parlerà di strategie semplici, utilizzabili ed efficaci che si potranno sempre usare per avviare la prop
Come la Galleta... Compra los Zapatos: Date permiso a ti misma para brillar
by Joyce MeyerEngrained in our culture is the belief that unbending discipline is the only sure way to success. You must go to the gym five times a week, never order the dessert, and don't even think about buying that dress you keep staring at in the store window. Breaking from such a regimented lifestyle is a sign of weakness, right? Wrong!-and Joyce wants to tell us why. . . Though setting rules in our lives are important, it's just as important that we break them from time-to-time. Structure is a powerful tool, but when diverging from your own goals is seen as catastrophic, it can have a hugely negative effect on us. Balance is a core value in life and every once in awhile we deserve to indulge in a guilty pleasure or two. So don't feel bad about straying from your goals every once-in-awhile and in fact, embrace it: eat the cookie and buy the shoes!
