"This is the fact of the matter-ivory-tower Christianity is a myth for most of us. For all of us. Yet we try to function, we have to function, in faith, despite our own shortcomings and the shortcomings of those around us. We try to live our lives in a lessthan- perfect world as less-than-perfect people who fall down, flat on our faces, time after time after time. Yet by grace through faith we get up, all the while clinging desperately to our hope in the Son. The Son of the promise." Tim Bowers is a product of grace--God's Grace. And that very grace is the subject of this book. He believes that life is a dance, a thing of beauty. And he further believes that it is an adventure in grace. Grace to behold, to embrace, to enjoy. He believes that it is God's grace which underscores our very lives and permeates both our every relationship and our every adventure. Tim is the father of two children and the third of four born to his parents, both retired educators. He is firmly and forever a product of the South, having grown up in Georgia and in the Southern Baptist Church; however, it was while living in Nashville, Tennessee, as a young businessman, that he discovered the doctrine and meaning of grace by faith alone. Since earning his Masters of Divinity in 1998, Tim has worked as a pastor, an outreach director, and as a church planter. He believes that the Church should reflect the Savior upon Whose cross it is founded-that it should be raw and real and reflect both the passion and the compassion of Jesus Christ Himself. That it should be anything but boring and that it should proclaim grace by faith alone in a nonjudgmental manner that truly changes lives.

Drawing on his Roman Catholic background, personal interviews with Catholics and Evangelicals, and years of research, Chris Castaldo takes readers on a fascinating and practical exploration of the challenges and opportunities encountered by Catholics who become Evangelicals. He examines the five major reasons why Christ’s followers often leave the Catholic Church, and shows how to emulate Jesus in practical ways when engaging Catholic friends and family. And, with humor and authenticity, he shares his own faith journey in order to help readers understand and work through their own.For those who are tired of scratching their head in confusion or frustration about how their Catholic background may influence their walk with Jesus, and why on earth their Catholic family believes they’ve gone off the deep end, Holy Ground offers vast insight and practical help. More than providing historical perspective, theological reflection, and practical lessons, it shows readers how to emulate the grace and truth of Jesus Christ in relating to the Catholic people whom they love.

If you're religious about your coffee, you're in holy company. If you like your coffee with a bit of inspiration, a hint of humor, and a dose of insight, you'll enjoy pouring a mug full of java and curling up with Holy Grounds. Popular author and avid coffee drinker Tim Schenck brews just the right blend of the personal and historical as he explores the sometimes amusing and often profound intersection between faith and coffee. From the coffee bean's discovery by ninth-century Ethiopian Muslims to being condemned as "Satan's drink" by medieval Christians, to becoming an integral part of Passover in America, coffee has fueled prayer and shaped religious culture for generations. In Holy Grounds, Schenck explores the relationship between coffee and religion, moving from faith-based legends that have become entwined with the history of coffee to personal narrative. He takes readers on a journey through coffee farms in Central America, a pilgrimage to Seattle, coffeehouses in Rome, and a monastic community in Pennsylvania. Along the way, he examines the power of ritual, mocks bad church coffee, introduces readers to the patron saint of coffee, wonders about ethical considerations for today's faith-based coffee lovers, and explores lessons people of faith should learn from coffeehouse culture about building healthy, authentic community.

Only a female, only a farmer's daughter, only a Mennonite - this mental script characterized Barbara Reed for many years. Later, only a missionary amplified her personal insecurities. But defining moments throughout a life well lived, learning to trust and rely on a deep faith in a personal Savior, molded her into a confident, resourceful, and successful woman who learned she had so much to offer others. From humble beginnings, the youngest of 10 children raised on a Pennsylvania potato farm, to the mission field of Somalia; from the beginnings of a nursing career to serving in a mental health hospital; from raising four children in a foreign country to holding the hand of her beloved husband through a long and devastating battle with Alzheimer's, Standing on Holy Ground - and Some Not so Holy gives testimony to God's abundant grace, even through a near-death experience and a distressing emotional crisis.

Moses saw a burning bush, but it wasn't consumed. Being curious as to why it wasn't consumed, he walked toward it in order to get a closer look. As he drew near, God spoke to him out of the midst of the burning bush and told him to stop and take off his shoes; he was standing on holy ground (Exodus 3:1-5).After revealing Himself to Moses as the God of his father's Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the LORD told Moses that he had been chosen to deliver Israel out of slavery in Egypt into the land He had promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God speaks to us today from the Bible just as He spoke to Moses from the burning bush. The Bible is our burning bush. Wherever the Bible is read, preached or taught, the one who is reading, preaching or teaching as well as those listening are on holy ground. The preacher or teacher is holy-doing what God called him or her to do as Moses did what the LORD call him to do. When the listeners do what is spoken, they also become holy people. In the Old Testament, God dwelt in a tent made according to the instruction He gave Moses on Mount Sinai (Exodus 25-27). His laws were written on tablets of stone (Exodus 24:12), and His glory was a cloud that filled the tent (Exodus 40:34). All three were observable and holy, and anyone in their presence was on holy ground. The New Testament writers explain how the tent, laws, and cloud that were observable and holy in the Old Testament become spiritual and holy in the life of those who are justified through faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1): the temple of God (1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19; 2 Corinthians 6:16), God's laws (Jeremiah 31:33; Hebrews 6:10), and the glory of God (2 Corinthians 4:6). Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification are words used in the New Testament to describe the Christian life from the first encounter with God's word-the burning bush and holy ground-to holy people in this life and the coming kingdom of God. Sanctification completes justification, and glorification completes sanctification. Sanctification is living in the dawn of the coming glory-resurrection, eternal life, and the kingdom of God.The New Testament is a commentary on Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification: Justification transforms those who believe on Jesus Christ into holy ground-a dwelling place for God, His word, and His glory. Sanctification transforms those who are justified into holy people- fulfilling the call of God to be disciples, teachers, ministers of reconciliation, ambassadors for Christ, soldiers of Christ, servants, and priests.Glorification transforms those who are holy people into glorified people-living with God in the coming kingdom of God.Each chapter of The Three Word Summary of the Christian Life is an amplification of justification, sanctification, or glorification. And the transition from justification to sanctification is explained through the call of God for the justified to be disciples, teachers, ministers of reconciliation, ambassadors for Christ, soldiers of Christ, servants, and priests. At the beginning of each chapter is a Scripture passage-holy ground. As you read it, you are on holy ground. When you obey it, you are holy. Also included in the chapters are examples of people who have obeyed what God asks you to do in the same passage of Scripture. The examples are testimonies of justification-holy ground, sanctification-holy people, and glorification-faith in the resurrection, eternal life, and the kingdom of God. Hopefully their testimonies will inspire you to do the same, and in turn you will be able to inspire others-make disciples (Matthew 28:18-20).
