How to Hear from God: Learn to Know His Voice and Make Right Decisions (Spiritual Growth Ser.)
by Joyce MeyerIn the hustle and bustle of today's busy world, sometimes it's hard enough to hear yourself think, much less take a minute to stop and listen for the voice of God. But learning to recognize God's voice and the many ways in which He speaks is vital for following His plan. InHow to Hear from God, Joyce Meyer shows readers that God reaches out to people every day, seeking a partnership with them to offer guidance and love. She reveals the ways in which God delivers His word and the benefits of asking God for the sensitivity to hear His voice. Joyce asks the question, "Are you listening?" and shares how to do just that.
How to Help People Change: The Four-Step Biblical Process
by Jay E. Adams“While touching on many aspects of counseling, this book . . . is specifically designed to elucidate the process of counseling. I have often mentioned and illustrated that process, but not in the focused and systemic way that the four-step biblical process is set forth here. . . . This book presents a fresh perspective not only on how to counsel, but also on what measures to take at what stages of counseling.”—Jay Adams, from the preface Change is the essential goal of the counseling process. And, in the author’s words, “substantial change requires the alteration of the heart.” How can a Christian counselor facilitate such change? The answer, of course, may be found in Scripture, specifically in 2 Timothy 3:14–17. Jay Adams is a well-known counselor who bases his whole approach on Scripture. This book provides an unparalleled opportunity to see how he discovers and applies biblical principles as well as the way in which Scripture functions as the basis for his counseling approach. This book answers two questions: “How does a counselor help people change?” and, “How does Scripture provide the source of a counselor’s method?” How to Help People Change has much to say about the ongoing discussion of the relationship between theology and psychology in the enterprise of Christian counseling.
How to Help Your Hurting Friend: Advice For Showing Love When Things Get Tough (Invert Ser.)
by Susie ShellenbergerA valuable handbook of practical advice for teenage girls to share with their friends Susie Shellenberger—veteran editor of Focus on the Family’s Brio magazine—addresses the most vital, personal, and life-challenging issues in young women’s lives so that concerned friends can respond in love and wisdom to their friends who are coping with crises. Presented in handbook form, this biblically-based, relevant, and contemporary-focused book empowers girls to salvage and even save the lives of their troubled peers. No issue is taboo (for example, she addresses self-cutting and sexual abuse) and no advice is ever vague (on the first page, Susie tells her readers that “Jesus Christ is the one who does the empowering!”). This classic book for teenage girls distills the wisdom of the Bible and combines it with the wisdom of many experienced and anointed counselors. Previously published as Help! My Friend Is Hurting, this reissued edition has a dynamic new format complete with sidebars and intriguing illustrations.
How to Human: Three Ways to Share Life Beyond What Distracts, Divides, and Disconnects Us
by Carlos WhittakerA much-needed reminder about what it means to be truly human in a world where people feel increasingly disconnected from each other and from God, by the popular author of Enter Wild.&“Carlos has created an antidote to what ails us.&”—New York Times bestselling author Jon AcuffThese are crazy times, people. We are more agitated than ever. We&’re fighting. Wrestling with big issues. Less connected than ever to one another and to God. It&’s a perfect storm: debilitating anxiety, crashing relationships, and forgetting what it feels like to, well, be human.In How to Human, author, speaker, and social-media personality Carlos Whittaker offers a fresh vision for becoming the best versions of ourselves. We can refuse to let disagreements define us. We can say no to becoming upset, rage-filled humans and say yes to fuller, happier lives. It begins as we make the shift from &“me&” to &“we&” to &“everybody&” in a three-part journey to be human, see fellow humans, and free those around us.You&’ll think, laugh, and be inspired by this practical guide, which reveals how to help others, how to hope fiercely, and how to experience the thrill of being fully human. Carlos describes a radical path of love—one that requires us to become builders rather than demolitionists. One that gets personal. One that moves toward others in faith rather than away in fear. One that, when times get crazy, is willing to get crazier (in a good way). One that understands the big joy of how to human.

How to Improve Your Mind
by Baruch SpinozaThe Enlightenment thinker asserts that mental tranquility is achieved through knowledge of God in this brief philosophical treatise.Seventeenth-century philosopher Baruch Spinoza was one of the most original and important thinkers of his time. His magnum opus, Ethics, influenced generations of great minds from Karl Marx to Ludwig Wittgenstein and George Santayana. In this earlier work, Spinoza articulates his view that life is best lived with the supreme happiness of knowing God&’s infinite love. By extension, all earthly pursuits—including money, fame, and sex—are mere distractions from the greater joy of the soul&’s quietude. This edition of How to Improve Your Mind is translated by the philosopher and founder of the Philosophical Library, Dagobert D. Runes. Runes also provides exclusive commentary and biographical notes.
How to Increase and Release the Anointing
by Rodney M. Howard-BrownePeople in ministry may find themselves in bondage to a religious system or imitate others who are successful in ministry, attempting to find a formula for the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The anointing is not linked to a multi-step formula, but, to a constant personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The author, Rodney M. Howard-Browne writes, "I AM ALWAYS AMAZED to see, that whilst a man's desire is to serve God, it seems so easy for him to fall into the rut of religion and tradition. It is equally amazing to me, to see an individual who was in the world, a slave to sin and on their way to a lost eternity without God, receiving salvation and coming into glorious liberty, then a few years later going back into bondage again. This time to religion and a religious system." We are living in a day and age when man is looking for a formula for everything that he does in life including his walk with the Lord." Rather than outlining a multi-step formula for the anointing by the Holy Spirit, the author gives some guidelines concerning the anointing and how to operate in the anointing as a lifestyle. The anointing is not based upon a religious formula, which leads to bondage in empty religion and can lead to backsliding and mere imitation of other successful people in ministry, rather, our freedom to pursue our walk with God is based on a relationship with Jesus, 24 hours a day. There are several things that we can do to enhance the anointing in our lives, which are outlined in this book. The fact that our walk with God is not based on a formula, but a personal relationship with Jesus is important to realize, as it is so easy for people to fall into a trap of trying so hard to be used of God, that they open themselves up to a religious spirit. Many, in their quest for the anointing, are trying to imitate the lifestyle of great men of God without using their God-given gifts and talents. Their ministry is not their own. They want to walk the successful person's walk and talk their talk, but not out of their own relationship with Jesus. They try to use their imitation of the daily habits of these men as a means to have God's anointing manifest in their lives. Many times then, people end up doing things with the wrong motive often leading to failure.
How to Inherit the Earth: Submitting Ourselves to a Servant Savior
by Scott A. BesseneckerAmbition isn't bad; it just does bad things. In a culture that too often prizes leadership uncritically and unreflectively, a faith that calls us to take up crosses, lay down lives and otherwise submit ourselves to something outside ourselves simply sounds like a bad idea. Nevertheless, this is the faith that we find Jesus talking about. Scott Bessenecker has learned from new friar communities, from the history of Christianity and from the mouth of Jesus that there's something wonderfully subversive about saying no to ourselves every now and then, something that could even change the world.

How to Know God
by Deepak ChopraYou don't have to believe in God in order to experience God.--- Deepak ChopraThe celebrated author of Ageless Body, Timeless Mind and The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success has written his most ambitious and important work yet, a runaway international bestseller that has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers to rethink their concept of God.According to Chopra, the brain is hardwired to know God. The human nervous system has seven biological responses that correspond to seven levels of divine experience. These are shaped not by any one religion (they are shared by all faiths), but by the brain's need to take an infinite, chaotic universe and find meaning in it. How to Know God describes the quest each of us is on, whether we realize it or not. For, as Chopra puts it, "God is our highest instinct to know ourselves." This book makes a dramatic and enduring contribution to that knowledge.From the Trade Paperback edition.
