Описание: Step into a Life of Grace At thirty-three, dealing with a difficult job and a creeping depression, Lori Smith embarked on a life-changing journey following the life and lore of Jane Austen through England. With humor and spirit, Lori leads readers through landscapes Jane knew and loved from Bath and Lyme, to London and the Hampshire countryside and through emotional landscapes in which grace and hope take the place of stagnation and despair. Along the way, Lori explores the small things, both meanness and goodness in relationships, to discover what Austen herself knew: the worth of an ordinary life."

Описание: Stephen J. Smith enters the lively field of editorial-criticism of the Hebrew Psalter or Psalterexegese with this detailed investigation into the final form of Psalms 73-83. In the book, he engages scholarly disagreements over this collection's structure, the degree and nature of its literary unity, and the primary theological message(s) it communicates. Smith argues that the sequence of Psalms 73–82 - and possibly 83 – has a deliberate design that reflects a sustained focus on addressing, and resolving, a multidimensional collision between “faith” (i.e., core Israelite beliefs about God) and “experience” (i.e., the individual/community’s lived experience of God) that was precipitated by God’s prolonged absence in the Temple’s destruction (c. 586/587 BCE).
Parting ways with previous scholarship, Smith contends that a recursive organizing principle rooted in biblical parallelism structures the collection. Over the book's nine chapters, he makes the case that the editor(s) grouped its psalms into two major blocks (74-78; 79-82) of two sub-groupings each (74-76, 77-78; 79/82, 80-81) in order to develop a single topic in multiple dimensions: the severe threat that God's prolonged absence in the temple's destruction posed to the ongoing viability of various core Israelite beliefs about God, most fundamentally God's goodness. Smith makes the case that the collection is shaped to resolve this crisis by bolstering the reader’s confidence in, and commitment to, these beliefs in the face of their apparent failure.

Описание: Sandra CH Smith had everything...marriage, children, elegant home, exciting social life and a successful journalism career. But when a motorist hit her head on, she suffered for almost a year as a recluse with long-term retrograde amnesia. Cognac and French wine soon took insidious control. At 35, she fearfully opened the door of a 12-Step recovery program. Two years later, with a shared-custody arrangement in place, to protect and nourish her hard-won sobriety, Smith walked away with just $600 in her pocket to rebuild her life. At eight years sober, with no knowledge of sailing, the author bought a 35-foot sailboat and taught herself to sail. Without electronics or radar, she embarked mostly alone, occasionally with her rebellious teenaged daughter, on the 2,555-day adventure with just a compass, a chart and a prayer. The spiritual odyssey gave mother and daughter a chance to begin healing their fragile relationship. Smiths book offers a heart-warming, sometimes humorous, sometimes terrifying testament to triumph over adversity. "Out of the Fog!" provides painful but compelling insights into overcoming addiction as well as solving relationship issues. The book illustrates the power of hope, faith and courage in facing the difficulties of recovery and in healing relationships. It is an intimate narrative of how a woman tackled life-threatening challenges on land and at sea and emerged strong, fearless and independent.

Описание: Adrian Smith summarizes the differences between the old ways of Christian thinking and the new ones that will take it forward into the next century.
The contemporary theologian Hans K?ng has asked if the "death of God," proclaimed by Nietzsche as the event of modernity, was inevitable. Did the empowering of new forms of rationality in Western culture beginning around 1500 lead necessarily to the reduction or privatization of faith? In Dialogues between Faith and Reason, John H. Smith traces a major line in the history of theology and the philosophy of religion down the "slippery slope" of secularization—from Luther and Erasmus, through Idealism, to Nietzsche, Heidegger, and contemporary theory such as that of Derrida, Habermas, Vattimo, and Asad. At the same time, Smith points to the persistence of a tradition that grew out of the Reformation and continues in the mostly Protestant philosophical reflection on whether and how faith can be justified by reason. In this accessible and vigorously argued book, Smith posits that faith and reason have long been locked in mutual engagement in which they productively challenge each other as partners in an ongoing "dialogue."
Smith is struck by the fact that although in the secularized West the death of God is said to be fundamental to the modern condition, our current post-modernity is often characterized as a "postsecular" time. For Smith, this means not only that we are experiencing a broad-based "return of religion" but also, and more important for his argument, that we are now able to recognize the role of religion within the history of modernity. Emphasizing that, thanks to the logos located "in the beginning," the death of God is part of the inner logic of the Christian tradition, he argues that this same strand of reasoning also ensures that God will always "return" (often in new forms). In Smith's view, rational reflection on God has both undermined and justified faith, while faith has rejected and relied on rational argument. Neither a defense of atheism nor a call to belief, his book explores the long history of their interaction in modern religious and philosophical thought.
Learning to Walk the Unforgettable Journey is a book of inspirational poetry; inspired by the unconditional love of God demonstrated throughout the author's life. This book of poetry is sure to encourage the seeker and believer. The poems can be read as devotionals, shared as encouragement or be used for church programs.

Описание:
Have you wondered what "faith" is? What it does? What its effects are? Or why it is at the heart of every major religion in the world? Well, you're not alone. Millions of people worldwide sense there is something very important about faith, and are asking these questions and more.
Originally composed in 1835, this amazing little book called Lectures on Faith provides powerful, inspiring and timeless answers to questions of faith for all truth seekers everywhere.
Lectures on Faith is a kind of handbook that digs deeper to unlock faith based mysteries and miracles from heaven, expanding the reader's understanding of one of the most important - yet misunderstood - foundations of spirituality. Of particular interest and value to Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Latter Day Saint Mormon, Fundamentalist and even non-denominational sects, whether or not they follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, Lectures on Faith restores foundational understanding of faith and spirituality that have been neglected, pushed aside, and forgotten. Its objective is to teach the reader what faith is, the object(s) upon which it rests, and the effects that flow from it. It establishes a foundation for discussing and understanding saving faith in Bible prophecy and other scriptures, inspiring readers to look more deeply into hope, grace and faith.
We are beings filled with faith And yet we sometimes don't have the faith to see it. Why do people instinctively believe that heaven is for real? Why do they seek Jesus of Nazareth and the passion of the Christ? As in the days of Noah, there is need in our day to come out of darkness, and obtain hope and glory just like heaven. Do you believe fearless faith can move mountains? How is catching faith related to the kingdom of heaven, love and mercy?
Early 19th century visionary Joseph Smith taught that when rightly pursued, the inquiry into faith over fear results in glorious discoveries and eternal certainties. Seekers of truth will find their minds enlightened by the Holy Ghost, and their understanding of God and spirituality stretched and expanded in unexpected and delightful ways. From then until now, thousands of Christian documentaries have been produced, books written, and sermons preached about faith as it pertains to the pursuit of happiness, Noah and the flood, the miracle worker, the dynamics of spiritual life, and knowing Christ today. Yet, none is more powerful or sublime than this simple little book of Lectures on Faith.
The Restoration Edition of Lectures on Faith was painstakingly compiled from the original manuscripts, making it the most accurate edition ever published. Lectures on Faith brings powerful truths and eye-opening revelations about the nature of God, faith, and hope to any willing to read and consider its contents. This intriguing book is not available at Deseret Bookstore, yet it should be the companion of everyone searching for a deeper understanding of faith, adding depth and delicious new insights into those areas of spirituality that have been shrouded in mystery until now.
Topics discussed are relevant to keeping the faith and how to live by faith in an uncertain world, faith in nature, acts of faith, faith crisis, regaining faith, keeping faith, confession of faith, confident faith, unshakable faith, leap of faith, faith seeking action, courageous steps of faith, test of faith, rediscovering faith, unwavering faith, increasing faith, courageous faith, bedrock faith, faith as a mustard seed, and keeping faith in an age of reason. When used in conjunction with the Restoration Edition of the scriptures (also published by the Restoration Scriptures Foundation), a whole new world of personal growth and spiritual understanding awaits.
Описание: It would be a mistake if i didn't thank time and space for allowing me to grow through this life experience. The death of the ones we love is hard to handle and accept only God's love, grace and mercy along with the love of family and friends helps us through the process. Healing is a process, there are no short cuts, some heal faster than others and some never heal. I was one of the fortunate ones. This work is dedicated to those who dare to dream and to those who refuse to let their dreams end up in the grave. Don't let the twists and turns of life derail you, stay the course and with time it all works out. Remember God does all things well and for our good.
Описание: The Lectures on Faith is a set of seven lectures on the doctrine and theology of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, first published as the doctrine portion of the 1835 edition of the canonical Doctrine and Covenants. The lectures were originally presented by Joseph Smith to a group of elders in a course known as the "School of the Prophets." Lecture 1: Faith gives rise to all human endeavors in both worldly and spiritual matters, and is a source of power, both in man and in God. Lecture 2: The human family's knowledge of God began with God's interaction with Adam before The Fall, which knowledge was retained after The Fall, and which knowledge has been transmitted via human testimony among Adam's descendants. Lecture 3: In addition to a belief in God, a correct knowledge of God's character and attributes as revealed in scripture is necessary for the exercise of faith leading to life and salvation. Lecture 4: From scripture, one can learn that God possesses the following attributes: knowledge, faith (which is His power), justice, judgment, mercy, and truth. Lecture 5: The Godhead, or the collective persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Lecture 6: The knowledge that one's life is in accordance with God's will is necessary for obtaining eternal life Lecture 7: By growing in faith, one draws nearer to God, and in the perfection of faith, one becomes like God. By faith, one obtains knowledge of God, through which knowledge one can receive all things pertaining to life and godliness.
