Dying to Meet Jesus
Where is God when my suffering seems never-ending? Can I really find joy in this fallen world? This powerful book confronts these questions with stories of the author's near-death experience, a daughter's suicide attempt, mental illness, and numerous other gripping stories that demonstrate not only that God is present when we need him, but that through our trials we can find true intimacy with him. Author Randy Kay recounts how, as a former devout agnostic, he survived a near-fatal accident while searching for the truth--and when he met the One he sought to disprove, his journey changed from a life of extreme trials into one of genuine joy. In these pages, Kay offers his testimony to show readers how God uses suffering and brokenness to build an intimate and indestructible relationship with him, while breaking down barriers and ushering the reader into an authentic relationship with the Author of love.
Pure
In Pure, Linda Kay Klein uses a potent combination of journalism, cultural commentary, and memoir to take us “inside religious purity culture as only one who grew up in it can” (Gloria Steinem) and reveals the devastating effects evangelical Christianity’s views on female sexuality has had on a generation of young women. In the 1990s, a “purity industry” emerged out of the white evangelical Christian culture. Purity rings, purity pledges, and purity balls came with a dangerous message: girls are potential sexual “stumbling blocks” for boys and men, and any expression of a girl’s sexuality could reflect the corruption of her character. This message traumatized many girls—res...

Readers will discover rich aspects of God's character and answers to the deepest questions of the heart: How can we really know God? How can all things work together for good in my life? How do we receive the promises of God? God, How Can I Live? is a journey toward godly living--a daily guide for practicing the eternal truths of God's Word.
Speak to My Heart, God
In Speak to My Heart, God, bestselling author Kay Arthur looks with warm honesty at the trials we face and the unconditional love of God that sustains us. More than a devotional, this book offers compassionate advice and biblical direction for believers' troubles and longings. They will find solace in times: when they wonder if life has any purpose when they're tempted not to share the gospel when their heart aches when they must forgive when the future is uncertain With very personal examples from her own life, Kay speaks directly to the broken, wounded, and hurting. Through times of disappointment as well as times of renewal and rejoicing, she shows readers how to let the pressures of life press them into the likeness of Christ.
Walking with Miss Kay
This book is about a journey of faith, about a believer in God - one who dared to believe and trust - a story that will challenge your perspective about how to view personal struggles. The reader will witness a life that has lived in the reality of difficulty only to realize that God is for us and in us, doing a work that is truly a Divine masterpiece. Although the focus of this book is on God in the center of a life lived, the author relates practical insights gained from early childhood health issues, through a lifetime of physical difficulties, to how to deal with personal loss, such as the death of a child. Scripture is clear that the human condition includes "a few days and full of trouble" - every individual faces hardship and the bitter testing of a personal nature from the pangs of birth to the anguish of death. Added to these physical realities are the struggles of faith. It's not about how we feel about the struggle; it is about what God is doing in us through each step of the way.

This book tackles this under-discussed question in one of the most popular topics of English historical syntax, with special reference to verbs of emotion in Middle English.
