Book Description
A book cannot do what a small group of dedicated friends can do. In your life, a book can close your “knowledge gap,” but only a small group can close your “behavior gap”. A book can change your thinking, but it takes a small group filled with accountability relationships to change your living. God never intended that we should live in isolation. God says it this way, And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another - and all the more as you see the Day approaching.— Hebrews 10:24,25 The book details and lays out the way that love-gaps around the seven desires of your heart that can be closed. But getting it done is a bigger goal than what you can individually self-manage. And when it comes to “matters of the Heart,” the risk of being able to successfully apply truth to our everyday life is very high. Especially, since the Bible warns us that our hearts are deceitful.” And of course, satan will do all he can to destroy any progress we make. God, knowing this, purposely put us into the “body of Christ,” called the church, meaning “the called-out ones.” Our Christian growth will accelerate only when we admit that we need other people to hold us accountable, to encourage us forward and model the way. This humble acknowledgement is where we can begin acquiring “Speed of Sanctification.” The Bible says, “Above all else, guard your heart for everything you do flows from it” (Proverbs 4:23). It is only in a small group’s discussions and prayers where you can accurately define and come to know your own personal heart and you begin to understand how your heart is functioning in these three distinct ways: 1. Emotions - Your heart is the source of what you desire and feel. (Psalm 37:4-5) 2. Thoughts - Your heart influences every thought you think. (Matthew 9:4) 3. Behavior - Your heart guides every action you take. (Matthew 15:19) This twelve-week series of heart-workshops on the Untangling Seven Desires of your Heart will encompass some of the most revealing and penetrating discussions you will ever have. It will be a journey of adventure as you implement new ways of living a love-filled and abundant life. God be with you on your journey to emotional freedom!

Book Description
LaVon Koerner learnt the concepts that prompted the content of this book, while he was setting up and running his International Consulting Business (Revenue Storm). While these concepts were curiously absent from the church, they were constantly revealing themselves while he was conducting international business. As LaVon engaged in multiple cultures in 49 different countries, the patterns became increasingly more noticeable to him. It was out there in the international community that LaVon uncovered the seven common denominators occupying every human heart. They stood out as the most beautifully simplistic common denominators instilled by God in every human heart that all nationalities and peoples shared. In a world that appears to be growing more deeply divided, he found that these commonalities reach beyond skin color, languages, dialects, or cultural mores. We all share in the desperation and the joy of the Seven Desire in EVERY human heart. Your own heart will validate their existence as you read this book. It is now time to put these critical observations in the rightful hands of the church where they belong. If they remain absent from the personal work of the church, we will be failing each other while allowing people to continue in emotional bondage. These longings hold the key to unifying the church as one body sharing all the same aspirations that have been built into our hearts by God himself. We need to fight the obsession over what divides us and move onto these seven common longings that unite us. God designed just one “mankind” and every human being has these exact same seven desires in their hearts. This book will untangle each one of them and set you free from all the negative emotions emanating out of the love-gaps that surround them.

Book Description
Christ said, “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full” (John 15:11). A joy-filled person is the best advertisement Christ has for a joyless world to consider his loving offer of salvation. The second fruit of the Spirit (joy) makes one an inspirational and infectious person to be around, whether you are a marriage partner, a business leader, or a next-door neighbor. The way Christ wants to accomplish this in and for us is through his two-step process as outlined in Colossians 3: •Step One: “Put to death therefore what is earthly in you” (Col 3:5). We will refer to this as the removal of a Joy Killer. •Step Two: “Put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge” (Col 3:10). We will refer to this as a Joy Maker. Each chapter is divided into these two steps. First, it begins with a removal of a Joy Killer and it is immediately followed with its replacement of a Joy Maker. With each chapter, you find an increasingly deep and rewarding joy as you pitch your tent one day closer to eternity.

Book Description
Let's face it—the Bible contains passages that are challenging to interpret and can even incite fear. Sure, we want to believe God's grace applies to our unique troubles: addiction, divorce, habitual sins, or a feeling of distance from God because we don't measure up. Still, perplexing Bible passages eat at us. Bestselling author and radio host Dr. Andrew Farley is known to blitzkrieg legalistic and lifeless interpretations with his discerning take on controversial Scriptures. In Twisted Scripture, Andrew skewers sacred cows and shatters destructive lies, bringing the undiluted truth about God's love and grace in a colorful and conversational look at the most controversial passages in the New Testament. This book offers more than just encouragement and freedom. It may change everything about the way you see yourself and God.

Book Description
Julie Woodley understands trauma. From physical and sexual abuse as a child, to abortion, through the murder of a dear friend, to brain injury and cancer, she's experienced more than a lifetime's worth of pain and loss. But by the grace of God she's doing more than surviving, she's thriving. Like a wildflower thrusting itself through a broken sidewalk, God has raised Julie's joy and hope through the layers of loss and into the light of His plan for her. He has transformed her from a broken receiver of grace into a beautiful blossom who radiates the grace she has received into the lives of other hurting people. Trauma victims often feel weighed down by shame, anger, confusion, and pain. They may be so accustomed to "getting by" that having passion and joy seems a lost hope. In A Wildflower Grows in Brooklyn, they'll encounter a story that will inspire them to imagine a life restored and overflowing with all the good things God intends for them.
