Living Life Backwards

Living Life Backwards
How Ecclesiastes Teaches Us to Live in Light of the End
By David Gibson

Only by keeping the end in mind can a person truly learn how to live in the here and now.  Living in light of our death reorients us to our limitations as creatures and helps us see God’s good gifts right in front of us – enabling us to live wisely, freely, and generously.  Drawing on wisdom from the book of Ecclesiastes, David Gibson teaches us to embrace this countercultural mind-set and More

Praying With Eyes Wide Open:
A Life-changing Way to Talk with God
By Sherry Harney

Often we view prayer as an activity reserved for a certain time, in a certain place, offered in a specific way.  But Scripture encourages us to pray continually.  This exhortation is an opportunity for prayer to permeate every aspect of our lives – when we’re alone or in a crowd, when it’s quiet and when it’s chaotic, when we feel like it and when we don’t.   More

#社群瘾

《#社群瘾》 #Struggles
作者: 克雷格.葛洛契尔 (Craig Groeschel)

这本书帮你定睛在耶稣,而不是3C荧幕。
