  • Though You Slay Me

    Though You Slay Me

    Job 13: ESV

    15 Though he slay me, I will hope in him;
    yet I will argue my ways to his face.

    16 This will be my salvation,
    that the godless shall not come before him.

    He IS a personal God.

    Nothing was more personal than the Sacrifice by the Father of His Only Son, Jesus Christ, on the Cross for our sins — your sins and my sins.

    So when life challenges; get personal with our God and Father: PRAY.

    20 Only grant me two things,
    then I will not hide myself from your face:
    21 withdraw your hand far from me,
    and let not dread of you terrify me.
    22 Then call, and I will answer;
    or let me speak, and you reply to me.

    “Though You Slay Me” (featuring John Piper) – music by Shane and Shane

  • Christian Anger resource: How to Handle Adversity by Charles F. Stanley

    Christian Anger resource: How to Handle Adversity by Charles F. Stanley

    NOTE: Last week we posted a series: ANGRY Children of a Loving God. 

    I wanted to point you toward an additional resource I discovered from a recent study on Christian Anger.  I have not read this entire book, yet recommend it with confidence based on the attached:

    How to Handle Adversity

    It is important to support Christian authors by purchasing their books. Although many are recognized and trusted theologians like Dr. Stanley, many Christian authors are publishing wonderful contemporary resources.

    Here is a link to Dr. Stanley’s book: InTouch Ministries.

    Adversity is the chisel used by God to shape, define, and sculpt the lives of Christians into the reflection of Christ’s character.

    Dr. Stanley teaches that everyone faces adversity- and the way you respond will determine how quickly you overcome life’s trials. Learn what a powerful combination praising, obeying, and waiting on the Lord can be. Softcover book, 208 pages.

    Price reduced.

    Everyone encounters adversity in this world. Pray to handle it with Christ’s calmness.

    Please do not try to handle anger on your own.  Ask your pastor, priest, or a Christian Counselor to help you with any adversity which causes anger, destroys relationships, and hurts you and your loved ones. – Roger 

  • Woman of Clay – Linda Caddick

    Woman of Clay – Linda Caddick

    a journey of the heart

    The following is a re-post of an earlier Christian Fiction review from our “Christian Authors.”

    Linda’s Author Bio can be located at Linda Caddick – Christian Author

    Roger Harned, site administrator, Christian Social Witness

    UNCONVENTIONAL BIBLICAL FICTION WITH PRESENT DAY RELEVANCE

    Please visit Linda Caddick’s blog to see other reviews of her Christian Fiction book: Woman of Clay.

     “Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. – Isaiah 64:8

    Shana’s quarrel with her father began when Rafael, the only son of her father’s friend — the sheep farmer — had started showing up with gifts for the family.

    You can guess how these relationships might develop.  Then they travel to the hills where shepherds graze their flocks near the spectacular city of Jerusalem.
