How to Handle Pressure
by Clyde M. Narramore Ruth E. NarramoreBack Cover: "pressure seems to be an unavoidable element of modern-day life. We can't escape it. In fact, many of us have not learned to cope successfully with the variety of pressures that come our way. In this book the Narramores suggest practical solutions for Christians seeking to handle pressure. They discuss such issues as time and money management, physical fitness, setting realistic goals, having a confidant to share our burdens, and living an organized life. These pave the way to peace of mind and contented living." Unlike other books of this genre, the Narramores integrate their psychology within a Christian worldview by quoting scripture references and referring to Biblical concepts from both the Old and New Testament. However, because this book has a psychological foundation to it, the non-Christian can gain insights by concentrating on the psychological information and by ignoring the Christian content.

How to Have a Soul Winning Church

How to Have an Enemy: Righteous Anger and the Work of Peace
by Melissa Florer-BixlerDoes Jesus' call to love our enemies mean that we should remain silent in the face of injustice? Jesus called us to love our enemies. But to befriend an enemy, we first have to acknowledge their existence, understand who they are, and recognize the ways they are acting in opposition to God's good news. <p><p>In How to Have an Enemy: Righteous Anger and the Work of Peace, Melissa Florer-Bixler looks closely at what the Bible says about enemies—who they are, what they do, and how Jesus and his followers responded to them. The result is a theology that allows us to name our enemies as a form of truth-telling about ourselves, our communities, and the histories in which our lives are embedded. Only then can we grapple with the power of the acts of destruction carried out by our enemies, and invite them to lay down their enmity, opening a path for healing, reconciliation, and unity. <p><p> Jesus named and confronted his enemies as an essential part to loving them. In this provocative book, Florer-Bixler calls us to do the same.
