Numb: Find Healing In Feeling
by Kay GackleI feel numb.Kay Gackle has heard these words for years as a therapist. Then one day, Kay found she was saying these exact same words.The phrase feeling numb is a bit ironic. Is it a feeling if we "feel" nothing? Being numb can be considered a feeling the same as white is considered a color. The color white appears because it absorbs no color. White is literally the absence of color. In the same way, numb is the absence of feeling. The color white can be seen when it is against a background of other colors. Likewise, we recognize being numb against the knowledge of where other feelings would typically exist. We know that we would naturally feel in a certain way, but we just don't feel anything.In this book, we identify what being numb looks like in everyday life, how we get numb, and the problems and symptoms surrounding it. Not stopping there, we will journey together into a deeper understanding of feelings and begin to let ourselves feel again. Through other’s stories, engaging questions, and practical tools, we can find healing and move beyond being numb.

Numbers (Preacher's Commentary, Volume #4)
by James PhilipGeneral editor Lloyd J. Ogilvie brings together a team of skilled and exceptional communicators to blend sound scholarship with life-related illustrations. The design for the Preacher's Commentary gives the reader an overall outline of each book of the Bible. Following the introduction, which reveals the author's approach and salient background on the book, each chapter of the commentary provides the Scripture to be exposited. The New King James Bible has been chosen for the Preacher's Commentary because it combines with integrity the beauty of language, underlying Hebrew and Greek textual basis, and thought-flow of the 1611 King James Version, while replacing obsolete verb forms and other archaisms with their everyday contemporary counterparts for greater readability. Reverence for God is preserved in the capitalization of all pronouns referring to the Father, Son, or Holy Spirit. Readers who are more comfortable with another translation can readily find the parallel passage by means of the chapter and verse reference at the end of each passage being exposited. The paragraphs of exposition combine fresh insights to the Scripture, application, rich illustrative material, and innovative ways of utilizing the vibrant truth for his or her own life and for the challenge of communicating it with vigor and vitality.

Numbers - Women's Bible Study Leader Guide: Learning Contentment in a Culture of More (Numbers)
by Melissa SpoelstraSomething in us aches for more—more hope, more joy, more freedom. All around us people are dancing to the steps of bigger, better, and faster, and we can easily join in without even realizing it. Before long complaining and comparing accompany our desire for more, yet we’re not any closer to filling the ache inside. God offers us another way. In this study of the Book of Numbers, we’ll find a group of people that wandered in the desert for forty years, unable to enter the Promised Land because of their complaining, grumbling, and lack of faith. The New Testament tells us that their story was written to warn us (1 Corinthians 10:6) so that we would not make the same mistakes and suffer the same consequences. God sent his only Son to die to buy our freedom from the sin that leads to discontentment, and we find our own promised land of peace and contentment in the life he gives us.By exploring Numbers we can come to identify the reasons for our complaining, learn contentment while being authentic about the difficulties of life, accept short-term hardship in light of the greater good of God’s ultimate deliverance, recognize the relationship between complaining and worry, and discover how to realign with God’s character and promises.Together we will learn contentment as we discover more of our incredible God who truly is more than enough. Only God can fill that ache inside and help us focus on his provision and purpose in the midst of life’s joys and pains.The Leader Guide, to be used along with the study's workbook and DVD, contains six session plan outlines, complete with discussion points and questions, activities, prayers, and more—plus leader helps for facilitating a group.Other components for the Bible study, available separately, include a Participant Workbook, DVD with six 20-25 minute sessions, and boxed Leader Kit (an all-inclusive box containing one copy of each of the Bible study’s components).

Numbers: An Introduction and Commentary (Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries #Volume 4)
by Gordon J. Wenham"Guide me, O Thou Great Jehovah" is one of the best-known hymns in the world. Yet the book of numbers, whose story that hymn summarizes, is seldom read. Why? "Its very title puts the modern reader off," writes Gordon Wenham. "In ancient time numbers were seen as mysterious and symbolic, a key to reality and the mind of God himself. Today they are associated with computers and the depersonalization that threatens our society." In his effort to bridge the great gulf between the book and our age, Wenham first explains the background of Numbers, discussing its structure, sources, date and authorship as well as its theology and Christian use. A passage-by-passage analysis follows, which draws useful insights on Old Testament ritual from modern social anthropology. The original, unrevised text of this volume has been completely retypeset and printed in a larger, more attractive format with the new cover design for the series.
Numbers: Journeying with God
by Katharine Doob SakenfeldAlthough little studied by most Christians, the book of Numbers offers a rich storehouse of material for reflection on the relationship between God and the human community.

Numen, Old Men: Contemporary Masculine Spiritualities and the Problem of Patriarchy (Gender, Theology and Spirituality #6)
by Joseph GelferSince the early 1990s there have been various movements designed to encourage 'masculine spirituality'. All these movements share a concern that spirituality has become too feminine and that men's experiences of the spiritual are being marginalized. The task of masculine spirituality is to promote 'authentic' masculine characteristics within a spiritual context. Numen, Old Men examines these characteristics to argue that masculine spirituality is thinly veiled patriarchy. The mythopoetic, evangelical, and Catholic men's movements are shown to promote a hetero-patriarchal spirituality by appealing to either combative and oppressive neo-Jungian archetypes or biblical models of man as the leader of the family. Numen, Old Men examines spiritualities that aim to honour and transcend both the masculine and feminine, and offers gay spirituality as an example of masculine spirituality that resists patriarchy.

Nunca Mais!
by Gabriel AgboDescrição do livro: “E restituir-vos-ei os anos que comeu o gafanhoto, a locusta, e o pulgão e a lagarta, ... e o meu povo nunca mais será envergonhado. E vós sabereis que eu estou no meio de Israel, e que eu sou o Senhor vosso Deus, e que não há outro; e o meu povo nunca mais será envergonhado.” Joel 2:25-27 É tempo de pôr um fim nas coisas que querem parar você. É vontade de Deus eliminar tudo o que quer desviar você dos Seus planos para a sua vida. E você já sabe que o plano dEle para você é que você tenha o melhor da alegria, paz, prosperidade, misericórdia, boa saúde e que tome posse de toda a sua herança. Mesmo que você esteja sob o juízo de Deus, isso poderá ser revertido hoje e você começará a nadar novamente em Sua graça. Também vimos as experiências de outros e a moderna versão israelense de Nunca Mais. Por que eles adotaram este slogan e até onde eles foram para que se cumprisse isso? Certamente, Israel hoje se tornou uma das nações mais poderosas do mundo (Tem o melhor serviço de inteligência – o Mossad e o terceiro melhor exército do mundo) não apenas porque Deus está com eles, mas porque eles também juraram nunca mais permitir que os judeus passassem pelos tratamentos mais desumanos, por dores, por tristezas e pelas mortes que sofreram nos eventos infelizes e evitáveis do século passado. Hoje, eles lideram não apenas a defesa, mas também a agricultura, tecnologia antiterrorista, ciência e medicina. Sim, hoje podemos dizer Nunca Mais! Este livro é, com certeza, uma leitura interessante.

Nunca antes pasamos por este camino / We’ve Never Been This Way Before: Confía en Dios en todo tiempo
by R. T. KendallLa nueva normalidad es que nada volverá a ser normal. ¿DÓNDE ESTÁ DIOS EN TODO ESTO? ¿POR QUÉ UN DIOS AMOROSO PERMITE QUE ESTAS COSAS SUCEDAN? ¿POR QUÉ NO ESTÁBAMOS PREPARADOS? En Nunca antes pasamos por este camino, el destacado teólogo R. T. Kendall responde esas preguntas y más al tiempo que profiere una palabra apremiante y profética para nuestro mundo en esta hora crucial. Kendall nos muestra que todo lo que Dios quiere enseñarnos hoy, se lo enseñó a Josué y a los hijos de Israel. Dios le dijo a Josué, cuando estaban cerca de la tierra prometida: «Nunca antes han pasado por ese camino» (Josué 3:4). La palabra de Dios a Josué fue tierna, desafiante y atemorizante. Dios sabe dónde hemos estado, adónde vamos y qué necesitamos para llegar allá. Kendall nos desafía amorosamente a hacer lo que sea necesario para humillarnos y procurar perdonar totalmente las injusticias cometidas. Si hacemos eso, veremos caer los muros que nos dividen, así como se derrumbaron los muros de Jericó ante Josué y los israelitas. Entonces seremos testigos de las muchas promesas que nos esperan al avanzar hacia otro tiempo sin precedentes: el próximo gran movimiento de Dios.

Nunca es demasiado tarde: El camino inesperado de Dios al éxito
by Tony EvansCuando muchos lectores cristianos piensan en los héroes de la Biblia, piensan en lo "buenos" que eran. Se olvidan de que... Rahab era una ramera; Jonás, un rebelde; Moisés, un asesino; Sara, una incrédula; Pedro, un apóstata; Ester, una diva; Sansón, un mujeriego; Jacob, un engañador. Y sin embargo, estos ocho hombres y mujeres forman parte de los héroes más famosos de la Biblia. Dr. Tony Evans utiliza estos personajes bíblicos importantes, cuyas acciones no fueron conformes al carácter de Dios, para ilustrar la verdad de que Dios se deleita en usar a las personas imperfectas que han fallado, pecado, o simplemente fracasado. Los lectores se sentirán alentados acerca de su propio caminar con Dios al entender que Él los está encaminando hacia el éxito, a pesar de las muchas imperfecciones que tienen y los errores que cometen. When many Christian readers think of the heroes of the Bible, they think about how "good" they were. They forget that... Rahab was a harlot. Jonah was a rebel. Moses was a murderer. Sarah was a doubter. Peter was an apostate. Esther was a diva. Samson was a player. Jacob was a deceiver. And yet these eight men and women are among the Bible's greatest heroes. Dr. Tony Evans uses these prominent Bible characters, whose actions or reactions were not consistent with God's character, to illustrate the truth that God delights in using imperfect people who have failed, sinned, or just plain blew it. Readers will be encouraged about their own walk with God as they come to understand that He has them, too, on a path to success, despite their many imperfections and mistakes.
