One Word That Will Change Your Life
And when they sent their first missionary team back into the area, they discovered that he wasn't needed. The place had already been fully evangelized, the people already knew God. They knew God from one little fragment of Scripture that had been left in a wreckage of a plane. Well, if they became a Christian, it was because of something that came out of the Bible because you cannot become a Christian without the Bible. We would not know how to know God without the Bible. We can know God exists through his creation, but we cannot know how to know God unless God reveals himself to us.

Having this type of research reminds me to be intentional with my time and what I am allowing myself to be exposed to. The Bible has been the most influential book in my life. It has guided me as I have surrendered and released control to God. The Bible and a love for its words are a natural extension of your desire to honor the great sacrifice of Christ and know Him better.
The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren is in the top 3—and quite possibly #1 in terms of sales. Amazing book for the guidance it gives about how to live your life in harmony with God and peaceful way. There were some good insights and interesting principles for sure but I found the book very repetitive and hard to finish.

I dislike books in which the author presents their subjective, personal experience as Fact.

The idea of hearing God draws mixed responses, but Scripture is clear that a relationship with God is a two-way street. God is more than a cosmic vending machine where we voice our prayers, press the “in Jesus name” button, and then out pops our answer. We are called to a relationship with him, not simply a role where we invoke his name at our every whim. The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. There will be a revival of glorifying God’s majesty. And the song of this revival will be heard from the uttermost parts of the earth.
In all times, but especially in the hard times, help me when I need Your grace to assist me to know Your will for me. I trust in Your grace to show me the way of Your divine will. The Gospel today gives me encouragement that as Your grace was with Jesus, it will be with me, as well, in those hard times in my life. Lord, you have shown me all good works.
