7 Myths About Singleness

7 Myths About Singleness
By Sam Allberry

If marriage shows us the shape of the gospel, singleness shows us its sufficiency.

Much of what we commonly assume about singleness — that it is primarily about the absence of good things like intimacy, family, or meaningful ministry — is either flat-out untrue or, at the very least, shouldn’t be true.  To be single, we often think, is to be alone and spiritually hindered.  More

By Ed Stetzer

Are you tired of reading another news story about Christians supposedly acting at their worst?

品格的革命

《品格的革命》 –  重塑属天的生命   
Revolution Of Character: Discovering Christ’s Pattern For Spiritual Transformation
作者: 魏乐德    Dallas Willard

「你所相信的主耶稣,其实是个超级革命份子! 」

早在两千多年以前,耶稣就发起了一场世界性的革命。当祂说:「我来了,是要叫羊得生命,并且得的更丰盛」(约翰福音十10),绝对不是在呼喊一个虚有其表的宗教口号,而是在宣告一个改变生命、改变世界的真实盼望。 More

Holy Noticing

Holy Noticing : The Bible, Your Brain, And The Mindful Space Between Moments
By Charles Stone

Does your life ever feel like one series of rushed moments after another?

Do you want to feel more present and connected to those you love?  Do you want to be able to listen without thinking the whole time of what you’re going to say next?  Do you want to feel less distracted, less busy, and more whole?  Most of us spend our distracted lives longing to get to the next, better moment and fail to notice the present one.  We lack space between one task and the next, More

Wretched Saints : Transformed By The Relentless Grace Of God

你说耶稣是谁

《你说耶稣是谁》  Jesus The Radical
作者: 法兰士  R. T. France

无论对祂熟不熟悉,拿撒勒人耶稣在每个人心中都有某个形象。不同时代,不同地域、宗教派别、文化背景的人,很容易因为时空错置、文化误植、心理期待、欲望投射等等因素,而给耶稣戴上各式各样的面具。这些或许呈现出耶稣的某些特质,然而祂绝对不只如此!对基督徒而言,认识的耶稣不完整时,传讲的耶稣自然也只是片面的,失去了原本应有沛然莫之能御的力道。

因此,法兰士把耶稣放回耶稣的时代背景来介绍,因为惟有从这个视角, More

More Of God

More Of God : Seek The Benefactor, Not Just The Benefits
By R.T. Kendall

Many of us want more from God instead of more of God.

Matthew 5:6 says, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”  This is a promise.  No one needs to tell you if the water you drank when you were thirsty made you feel better.  So too with experiencing God.  When it happens, you will know it for yourself.  More

成为新创造

《成为新创造》  Grappling With Your Identity: Clinging To The Rock
作者:方莉恩   Lynne Fox

「我一生惟一的遗憾,就是我不是另一个人。 」一位电影名人曾说过这句话。这也是你的遗憾吗?

大多数人不是高举自己,就是容易轻看自己;不是自尊心膨胀,就是充满自卑感。我们往往在这两端中摆荡。我们甚至会去认同自己做过的每一件丑事,以为是缺点定义了自己。其实每个人都需要一个新自我,我们需要成为一个新创造。 More
