Start Your Day Off Right

This made-just-for-you devotional from Point of Grace is the perfect way to make sure you are centered on God and ready for whatever your day brings. Each week is set up so you can pick and choose the activity you want to do each day in whatever order you choose. Here's how it works: There are fifty-two topics (one for each week of the year), and each one has five short and easy devotions. Each week has

  • a brief message
  • a fill-in-the-blank Bible study
  • a special scripture for you to read and place in your heart
  • an action idea for living out that week's message
  • some space to journal your thoughts and feelings

The five-devotions-a-week plan allows for a rest on Sunday and one "Yikes! I overslept" day. By the end of each week, you'll be closer to God, deeper into His Word, and more like Jesus.

Description: Although Christians often feel defeated and victimized by Satan and his minions, Scripture says that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus and that it's possible to live without giving Satan any ground. So why don't more Christians experience spiritual victory and power? Chuck Pierce says it's because we spend more time licking our wounds than we do studying Satan's sniper strategies so that we can find the shooter. The key to overcoming our enemy is to become more shrewd in recognizing his strategies, to pray in specific ways that help us to overcome Satan's attacks, and to wear the armor described in Ephesians 6. As we learn to pray with power and authority prayers of submission, confrontation, faith, wisdom, breakthrough, and more, we can learn to outwit the enemy of our souls.

Description: Under the expert guidance of the late Bishop George Appleton a selection of prayers has been made spanning many centuries. It includes Christian prayers from the Bible and from the saints and mystics of the past, as well as prayers from Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, Iranian, Shinto, Classical Greek and Latin, native American, and Baha'i religions, and also contemporary prayers from different parts of the world. The cooperation of many advisers has ensured that the choice of prayers is ecumenical in the widest sense of the word.

The prayers are arranged under headings such as "Prayers from the Scriptures", "Prayers of Christians, personal and occasional", "Prayers of the Church", and "Prayers from other traditions of faith", but there is also a subject index to guide the user to prayers for particular occasions, and an index of authors and sources. The book may thus be used for browsing or for more structured prayer, for private meditation or for public worship.

Description: What are the universal constants of Christian worship? What are the unique elements that arise out of diverse local contexts? How do we appropriately respect and honor both the constancy and the diversity?

In this book Pedrito Maynard-Reid explores the multiethnic dimensions of worship by looking at three specific cultural contexts for worship--African-American, Caribbean and Hispanic. After surveying worship and culture through history, the author devotes a section to each of these three cultural contexts. In these sections worship traditions are colorfully described and characterized. Historical development and change is explored. In each section we gain new perspective on what it means to worship God.

"A clear, concise and insightful introduction to the variety of cultures and worship styles present in the church today. A valuable resource for church leaders working in multicultural situations." Justo L. Gonzalez, editor of Alabadle: Hispanic Christian Worship

"What a pleasure to read a book based on solid research and wide exposure to African, Caribbean and Hispanic worship. . . . a virtual experience of expressive authentic worship. Thanks for this window into the intercultural worship of the postmodern world." Robert Webber, Director, Institute for Worship Studies

"A solid contribution in its field enhancing not only our knowledge but also our worship practice. . . . a valuable and informative resource." Mervyn A. Warren, Professor of Preaching, Oakwood College

"In this challenging book Maynard-Reid invites us to become aware of the cultural conditioning in our own worship traditions and to appreciate the richness we may tap in the worship traditions of others." David Neff, Executive Editor, Christianity Today

Description: In northern California, there is fog in the morning. Slowly, it clears. We know that the mountains, the trees, the sky are there, behind the fog, but we cannot see them with our eyes. Instead, we know them in our bodies; we know them for having seen them, felt them, watched the fog lift again and again…

This is prayer. This is deep, faithful listening, waiting for what is hidden to be revealed. Prayer is not words; prayer is what happens when you listen and wait, beneath the words, for the outline of heaven to emerge.
--From the Introduction Learning to Pray

Many who seek comfort and healing from prayer are unsure about how to pray. They feel awkward or uncomfortable, not knowing the “right” way to pray. What should prayer feel like, and what is it supposed to accomplish?

In this illuminating book, Wayne Muller offers simple yet profound guidance based on the Lord’s Prayer. It is the prayer most prayed in our culture--included in countless services, private devotions, and twelve-step meetings. Yet in its very familiarity we may underestimate its power to heal and transform our lives today. Now, in the same ecumenical spirit with which he approached the Sabbath, Muller gives us a fresh, new vision of this timeless prayer. “Every word, every phrase,” he says, “reveals some potent teaching about prayer.”

Starting with the word “our,” which reminds us that we never pray alone, and continuing phrase by phrase, Muller leads us into the heart of the prayer, to the assurance of a heaven available to us here and now. He explores how God responds to our needs and wants, how we can seek protection in a world full of danger and evil, and how we are called to forgiveness. He also gently confronts the difficulties that some people have experienced with the prayer. Each short section ends with a Prayer Practice to bring these simple teachings alive in our hearts and lives.
