Synopsis Overwhelmed by Grace by : Brian Anderson

Every Christian has been saved by Gods grace, but many believers have never grasped the glory of that grace. Can Gods grace be resisted? Will it cause the believer to endure in faith? How is it related to divine election? Did Christ in His death have a particular group of people in mind? Brian Anderson in Overwhelmed By Grace meets a widespread need for the doctrines of grace to be clearly, simply, and Biblically explained for all believers. By the time you are done reading this book, you may also be overwhelmed by grace! Here is a well-reasoned, readable, Biblical explanation of the doctrines of grace. Many Christians find these truths difficult to wrestle with, and unfortunately there is a dearth of material that explains them well. Too many who attempt the task get bogged down in philosophical and historical arguments before they ever deal clearly with the Biblical data. Brian Anderson avoids that pitfall and focuses his energies instead on simply giving a clear and understandable presentation of what Scripture teaches. I am very grateful for his wonderful, straightforward, and above all Biblical treatment of these crucial doctrines. John F. MacArthur, Jr. Pastor, Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, California President, Masters College and Masters Seminary Brian Anderson has written a solid, readable, engaging and very clear book for those who want to understand the nature of Gods grace in the salvation of the lost. I warmly recommend it. Dr. John H. Armstrong Founder and President, Act 3 Brian Anderson served from 1990 to 2000 as the teaching pastor of a Bible church in Milpitas, California. Since that time he has been planting and overseeing house churches in Sonora, California.

Synopsis Reset by : David Murray

"How did I get here?" These are the words of many Christian men on the brink of burnout or in the midst of breakdown. They are exhausted, depressed, anxious, stressed, and joyless. Their time is spent doing many good things, but their pace is unsustainable—lacking the rest, readjustment, and recalibration everyone needs on a regular basis. But there is good news: God has graciously provided a way for men to reset their lives at a more sustainable pace. Drawing on his own experiences—and time spent with other men who have also experienced burnout—pastor David Murray offers weary men hope for the future, helping them identify the warning signs of burnout and offering practical strategies for developing patterns that help them live a grace-paced life and reach the finish line with their joy intact.

Synopsis Grace Can Lead Us Home by : Kevin Nye

On any given night, more than half a million Americans and Canadians find themselves sleeping on the streets, in shelters, cars, and other places not meant for human habitation. Yet as this crisis continues to grow, it remains one of the least talked about—especially in churches. Even where compassion and empathy exist, the complexities around homelessness can make us feel stuck, overwhelmed, or numb to the existence of unhoused people in our cities and neighborhoods. Reporting back from his work in homeless services, minister and advocate Kevin Nye introduces readers to the Christ he’s met in tents, shelters, and drop-in centers. He demystifies homelessness by journeying into complex issues like affordable housing, mental illness, addiction, and more, while reimagining our theological approach to these matters and educating us on how they intersect with homelessness. This thorough and intimate book shows us that from the margins, Jesus has something to teach us all about grace—something that could change the landscape of homelessness entirely if we’re ready to hear it.

Synopsis Overcoming the Overwhelming by : C. D. Hildebrand

There are many challenges we face in life that have simple solutions. Others might take a greater effort, but eventually, we are successful. However, sometimes we experience difficulties that seem beyond our own abilities to overcome. After perhaps years of trying to improve without making any permanent progress, it is easy to feel discouraged and overwhelmed. It is perplexing to us when we observe that in other areas of our lives we are living victoriously. We might be doing very well in business and relationships and appear to everyone that we "have it all together." Yet, in other facets of our lives, we are still experiencing frustration and defeat. As the title of the book implies, in order to overcome the overwhelming, we must have faith in God, but how do we find new faith-a faith that will finally help us move "this" mountain? Jesus said that knowing the truth will set us free. So, first of all, we need to discover what the truth is, especially as it pertains to our overwhelming circumstance. Next, we need to face head-on any thought that is negating the truth or causing us to doubt God's goodness and His loving grace toward us. Then, we simply allow ourselves to believe that God is who He says He is and that He will do what He says He will do, not allowing anything to prevent us from receiving what He has provided. Set before you in this book is a 40-Day feast of truth that is shared with the objective of setting you free to believe fully in God's kind intentions toward us and receive the victory Jesus won for us. I hope you will be inspired to take this journey toward rediscovering faith in God so that you will finally overcome the overwhelming. Sincerely in Christ, C. D. Hildebrand"
