DISCOVER HOW YOU CAN FIND FREEDOM FROM GUILT AND SHAME
Do any of the following apply to you?
I need forgiveness from God, but I don't know how to find it.
It's only a matter of time before people find out I'm not good enough.
I am disconnected and lonely.
How can I figure out when I am guilty and when I am innocent?
I don't think I'm worth being loved.
I don't want to be so angry, jealous, and judgmental.
I need to have a stronger connection with God.
If these statements sound familiar to you-you are not alone. Even the most emotionally healthy people today experience degrees of the anguish brought on by shame and guilt. The heavy burden of shame and guilt can often keep us from connecting with others and enjoying the freedom of living in Christ.
In Overcoming Guilt and Shame Dr. Daniel Green and Dr. Mel Lawrenz discuss the many ways in which guilt and shame both subtly and overtly manifest themselves in our lives. Using pastoral counseling and illustrative psychological case studies, they uncover the causes of and healthy responses to shame and guilt.
Daniel Green (Ph.D., University of Arkansas) is clinical director of New Life Resources, Inc. in Brookfield, WI.
Mel Lawrenz (Ph.D., Marquette University) is minister at large for Elmbrook Church in Brookfield, WI, and director of The Brook Network (www.thebrooknetwork.org).
En algunas ocasiones sabemos con exactitud qu debemos decir en oraci n pero en otras pareciera dif cil hallar las palabras adecuadas. No es algo inusual. Es la raz n por la que los seguidores de Cristo a trav s de los siglos han escrito oraciones para apoyarse mutuamente, plegarias basadas en los valores y los par metros que encontramos en la Escritura.
En Oraciones por nuestra vida, el autor y pastor Mel Lawrenz ofrece 95 oraciones distintas que pueden usarse en pocas de tensi n, durante ocasiones especiales y como gu as cotidianas. Por ejemplo:
Cuando estamos enfermos
Oraciones matinales
Cuando estamos desanimados
Oraciones vespertinas
Por fe y salvaci n
Oraciones durante la comida
Cuando somos tentados
Alabanza a Cristo el Se or
Por nuestros amigos
Gratitud por un logro significativo
Por la naci n
Cuando necesitamos direcci n
Cuando alguien contrae matrimonio y decenas de oraciones adicionales.
Puedes usar estas oraciones en privado, en grupo, en una ocasi n especial o en la iglesia. O tambi n adaptarlas como mejor consideres.
Sometimes we know exactly what to pray, and sometimes it seems hard to find the right words. That is not unusual. That is why Christians have been writing prayers to support each other for centuries, based on the values and the standards we find in Scripture.
In Prayers for Our Lives author and pastor Mel Lawrenz offers 95 different prayers to be used in times of distress, on special occasions, and as daily patterns. For instance:
Morning Prayers
Evening Prayers
Mealtime Prayers
For the Family
For Worship
When We Are Ill
When We Are Discouraged
For Faith and Salvation
When We Are Tempted
For Friends
For the Nation
When Someone Gets Married
Praise to Christ the Lord
Thanks for a Major Achievement
When We Need Guidance
and dozens more
You can use these prayers in private times, in a group, for a special occasion, or in church. Or adapt them as you see fit.
ENDORSEMENT
"Mel writes with disarming honesty, and each prayer is like a cry of the heart. Here child-like simplicity meets sage-like wisdom, all of it spoken so intimately that living breath still seems to fill each word. Lifelines indeed."
Jesus es lo suficientemente intrigante como una figura historica, pero es mucho mas que eso. Jesus el Mesias es la fuente de gracia y verdad, perdon y confrontacion, poder, sabiduria y vida. No es de sorprenderse que el apostol Pablo dijera: Lo he perdido todo a fin de conocer a Cristo, experimentar el poder que se manifesto en su resurreccion, participar en sus sufrimientos y llegar a ser semejante a el en su muerte. Asi espero alcanzar la resurreccion de entre los muertos (Filipenses 3.10-11).
Conocer a Cristo es un conjunto de lecturas devocionales que pone el foco en la razon por la que Cristo vino y que logro para la humanidad mediante Su muerte sacrificial y resurreccion triunfal. _____
Mel Lawrenz sirve al Senor como parte del equipo pastoral de la Iglesia Elmbrook en Brookfield, Wisconsin (EE. UU.), donde previamente se desempeno como pastor principal. Tiene un doctorado en historia del pensamiento cristiano (Marquette University) y es adjunto en la facultad de Trinity International University. Es autor y coautor de dieciseis libros publicados por Zondervan, Baker, Regal, Leadership Network y otros. _____
Jesus is intriguing enough as a historical figure, but he is much more than that. Jesus the Messiah is the source of grace and truth, forgiveness and confrontation, power and wisdom and life. No wonder the apostle Paul said: "I want to know Christ-yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead" (Philippians 3:10-11).
Knowing Him is a set of devotional readings for the Easter season focusing on why Christ came, and what he accomplished for humanity through his sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection."

Los d as previos a la Navidad constituyen una oportunidad extraordinaria para crecer en el conocimiento de Jes s, el Cristo, quien se denomin a s mismo como el camino, la verdad y la vida. En muchas ocasiones Jes s les dijo a sus seguidores los motivos por los que hab a venido. La gente com n no suele hablar de esa forma. Aunque tengamos un sentido de prop sito en la vida, no decimos que hemos venido al mundo con una misi n especial.
Jes s dijo que lleg para cumplir la Escritura: No piensen que he venido a anular la ley o los profetas; no he venido a anularlos sino a darles cumplimiento (Mt. 5.17). Dijo que vino a predicar y proclamar: V monos de aqu a otras aldeas cercanas donde tambi n pueda predicar; para esto he venido (Mc. 1.38).
Dijo que vino a sacarnos de la oscuridad: Yo soy la luz que ha venido al mundo, para que todo el que crea en m no viva en tinieblas (Jn. 12.46).
Puesto de pie ante Poncio Pilato, Jes s dijo: Eres t quien dice que soy rey. Yo para esto nac , y para esto vine al mundo: para dar testimonio de la verdad (Jn. 18.37) Dijo que vino a dar vida: Yo he venido para que tengan vida, y la tengan en abundancia (Jn. 10.10).
Y si todo eso no fuera suficiente, dijo que lleg con el fin de servir y darse en sacrificio: Porque ni aun el Hijo del hombre vino para que le sirvan, sino para servir y para dar su vida en rescate por muchos (Mc. 10.45).
Hay distintas formas de contemplar la realidad transformadora de la venida del Hijo de Dios. En este devocional consideraremos veinticinco palabras o frases claves asociadas con el nacimiento de Jes s. Pensaremos en alegr a, paz, Emanuel, pastor, sabios, Mar a, estrella, carne, virgen, consejero, pr ncipe, pesebre y m s. En cada una de estas palabras se encierra un tesoro.
Puedes leer el texto de forma diaria o seguir el ritmo que prefieras. Si comienzas el primer d a de diciembre, terminar s el d a de Navidad, pero en realidad puedes hacer las lecturas en cualquier momento durante la temporada navide a. Dios te bendiga al acercarte m s a Cristo este a o.

"An urgent call..." -Os Guinness
What is a human being worth? That is the opening question in this new book by Mel Lawrenz which explores the meaning of human dignity and its connection with the Christian gospel and mission.
Human dignity is a widely-held ideal, but there is much confusion over what it means. Is it simply autonomy-the supposed right that people have for complete self-determination? Is it good behavior? Is human dignity the basis for protection for all people, especially the vulnerable, founded on the reality that people are created in the image of God?
Lawrenz speaks to the issue of dignity not just as a philosophical topic, but as an everyday reality. This is "a time for dignity" because of the many indignities that diminish people, whether abuse, illness, aging, injustice, terrorism, economic crises, etc. The mandate of the gospel requires specific commitments to recognizing and respecting human worth-all carried out in obedience to Jesus Christ.
CONTENTS
What is a Human Being Worth?
Slap in the Face: The Insults of Indignity
Restoring Dignity
The Mandate of the Gospel
The Dignity of Jesus
ENDORSEMENT
"The dignity of the person is the bedrock of any society with a human face. But if the last century witnessed some of history's greatest violations, the coming century may well prove worse. A Time for Dignity is an urgent call.... Followers of Jesus must not fail to rise to the challenge of the hour."
-Os Guinness, author and social critic
EXCERPT
Despite all the painful circumstances of life that can make us feel incomplete, or less than fully human, most people do not give up the hope that they have some worth, some dignity. Illness makes us less than whole. Aging diminishes the body and oftentimes the mind. Abusive relationships violate. Loss and trauma fracture people's lives like earthquakes that weaken the whole structure of life. Unemployment and under-employment rob people of a sense of purpose. Many who have a job work for managers who treat them like gears in a machine. Yet most people hope that there is something higher about personhood that cannot be taken away. Most people want to hold their heads up.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
"Clear, easy to read, great explanations... and in everyday language. It provides a 'big picture' of the Bible and how I can understand it better. It's a resource I'll refer to quite often... and encourage others to also. This is a MUST READ "
"This is a GREAT resource for ANYONE. If you are new to reading the Bible or if you've been reading it for years ... there's good information in this book for you."
Rarely have I seen a book take something as misunderstood as the Bible and make it so simple to understand. It is clear, concise, interesting and well written. It's gave me both an explanation of all aspects of the Bible and the encouragement to approach God's word with confidence.
