In 1992, Pastor Lon Solomon's career was on a speedy ascent. He was the senior pastor at McLean Bible Church, an influential and rapidly growing church in the suburbs of the nation's capital.

In this book Frances M. Young begins by exploring the desert spirituality of the early Church Fathers, and develops in this and other ways their approach to the Bible. In doing so, she seeks to recover a sense of the importance of the spiritual meaning of the text, as much as a literal or historic meaning.

The lectures in this volume witness the importance of the meeting between the university of the learned and the university of the poor. From them a deep understanding of true discipleship emerges.

Perhaps you've already experienced circumstances so shattering you may wonder today whether it's even possible to pick up the pieces. And maybe you can't. But God can -- and the good news is, he wants to reassemble the shards of your life into a wholeness that only the broken can know.

Born without complete legs, Judy watched others have all the fun. As she wore her orthopedic shoes, she had no idea what God could do with her brokenness. As she coveted other kids' physical adeptness, their social calendars, and their seeming satisfaction in their own skin, she remained clueless that they indeed shared her condition - a missing "something" in their lives. It took decades before she realized the truth: * You can have long, strong legs but no one wants you on their team. * You can have intact, beautiful bodies but be unhappy with what you see in the mirror. * You can look perfectly whole but be filled with gaping holes. Each one of us is broken in some way. For some it's visible; for others it's hidden.. Life's pain seems unending. And yet in life's inevitable pain the unexpected can happen. It did for Judy. While she was concluding that life was passing her by, a full and fulfilling life was in the making. Through an invisible strength, a unique, anchored life was taking shape. His Majesty in Brokenness shares stories of Judy's life lived in intimate relationship with God, thanks to some everyday missing pieces - not just legs, but self-sufficiency, courage, and a social life. Could it be that the very absence of these ingredients provided the stage for God to perform the impossible? Whether you see Him or not, God has pitched His tent in that very wasteland. He says: Be astonished! Wonder! Because I am doing something in your days - you would not believe if you were told. Habakkuk 1:5 NASB Judy's prayer is that as you read her stories you will contemplate God's presence in your own life, His Majesty crafting the places of your brokenness into His unique masterpiece called YOU!

“I watched so many people close to me never deal with their issues. They would sweep them under the rug as if hiding them would make them disappear. They were too concerned about their “image” being toyed with; therefore, they kept these “secrets.” In Blessed Beyond the Bruises, Angel Jackson breaks the generational curses of keeping things secret. In the most intimate testimonial to date, Angel shares the lowest of valleys and the highest of mountaintops experienced throughout her life. With being sexually abused, starting at the tender age of 12 years old, Angel shares the darkest times of her life and how she overcame them by the power of God. With great transparency in every chapter, she talks about the power of validation, saying no to suicide, surrendering to Christ, experiencing tragedy after salvation, the healing process, and ultimately being blessed beyond the bruises. With nothing left uncovered, her life changing story about her journey from brokenness to wholeness is one of great hope and healing. Angel boldly testifies about topics such as: · Validation and low self-esteem · Molestation and rape · Suicide · Isolation · Relationships · Bondage · Finding your voice

The remarkable story of a woman, plagued with guilt and skepticism, dramatically changed by the nine minutes she spent in heaven. Someday soon, one of my precious three-year-old twins is going to ask me the question “Mommy, what happened to you when you died?” Someday they will overhear me telling my story to someone and want to know more about it. They will look at me with their big, innocent eyes and try to make sense of what they’re hearing. It isn’t always easy explaining what happened even to adults, so how am I going to explain it to my kids? There is so much I want to share with them, so much I want them to know. You see, my story is one of hope and forgiveness and salvation, and of the glorious healing power of God’s presence. It’s the story of what I saw and what I learned when, during a hospital stay, I left my body for nine minutes and went to heaven and stood before God. And it’s the story of how, when I came back to Earth, my life was profoundly and permanently changed— changed down to the very core of my being. But it is also a story that, for the longest time, I didn’t want to tell.

A Christian Retailing BEST finalist A middle-class woman in rural America and war-affected children in Africa find common ground in their journeys from brokenness to redemption.Author and psychologist Bethany Haley Williams shares how her own emotional healing led her into treacherous war zones, where she provides care to former child soldiers and young girls used as sex slaves. Faced with her own battle with shame and a rocky journey toward healing, Bethany founded Exile International, a nonprofit that implements art/expressive therapy and long-term, rehabilitative care to restore and empower war-affected children—including children rescued from Joseph Kony’s LRA (Lord’s Resistance Army). One of those rescued young men, Solomon, was abducted at the age of ten after being forced to watch LRA soldiers maim and murder his father and grandfather. His younger siblings were left behind, and his mother was instructed to “raise them well...for one day we’ll return to take them too.” Solomon is one of hundreds of thousands of boys and girls who have had their innocence stolen and are forced to do the unthinkable on a daily basis. But their horrific experiences are just the beginning. The real story is what happens after. Once these children learn to face their pasts, they are given hope for a future and a vision for changing the fabric of their countries by becoming leaders for peace and advocates of the power of forgiveness.
