Download or read book God Has a Name written by John Mark Comer and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What you believe about God sets the foundation of the person you will become. In God Has a Name, pastor and New York Times bestselling author John Mark Comer invites you to rethink many of the prevalent myths and misconceptions about God and weigh them against what God actually tells us about himself. After all, what you believe about God will ultimately shape the type of person you become. We all live at the mercy of our ideas, and nowhere is this more true than our ideas about God. The problem is many of our ideas about God are wrong. Not all wrong, but wrong enough to form our souls in detrimental and disheartening ways. God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself in the Bible. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including: Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him? What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires? What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine? No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, God Has a Name invites you to step into a fresh and biblically rooted vision of who God is that has the potential to alter your life with God and shape who you become.

Download or read book How to Find the Path to Your Destiny written by Dana Marie Rivas and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dana was born in Washington, D.C. and grew up in Fort Washington, MD. The inspiration for this book came one day while on lunch break at work, chatting with an old friend. It seemed she and I both - and other friends were all going through a mid-life crisis at only 26 years of age. We didn't feel the satisfaction and purpose we thought we were supposed to feel at this point... having "made it" by the world's standards. We all felt like we needed to quit and run away to a remote village somewhere on the other side of the world...to "find ourselves" and sense of purpose and passion we were missing. After analyzing this for some time, I realized that we felt let down by lies and false promises that society and sometimes our families pass on to us, growing up, unknowingly. The false promise that if we study hard and get prestigious jobs or make a lot of money that this is what leads to happiness and a feeling of success and personal fulfillment in life. This isn't true and I discovered what was missing. This book, "How to Find the Path to Your Destiny", will share with you simple, practical steps to help get out of this rut and identify your true purpose in life.
