Between the letters in our Bibles and the rhythms of modern church life, a gap wide enough for the teachings of Jesus to slip into the background has opened. We still sing His name and quote His words. But too often, we sidestep the commands that cost us the most. In Living the Words We Skip, you’ll confront the hard truth: much of what passes for Christianity today would be unrecognizable to the Carpenter from Nazareth. Through Scripture, history, and examples, this book exposes how we’ve traded the cross for comfort, discipleship for affiliation, and the Kingdom for the empire’s approval.

My church was struggling, and I was hurt about that. Why wasn’t God giving me growth? My son was sick, and every seizure was a gut punch. I was hurt about that. Our personal finances were being pummeled by doctor bills, I was physically exhausted from working long hours with too little recovery time, and my most reliable source of replenishment had been taken away. When a person is behind the curve on multiple fronts, it is nearly impossible to be spiritually, physically, or emotionally replenished.

We all experience times of hiddenness, when our potential is unseen and our abilities unapplauded.

Todd and the other heroes of Flight 93 gave their lives so that untold others would be spared. Nothing could be more heroic. Lisa is now telling that story, and much more.

What if the longing we feel is a sign of God’s longing for us? Thirsting is a deeply spiritual exploration of a life-changing truth: only when we learn to live in the ache of our thirst instead of running from it will we know the joy of receiving God in every part of our lives. We may be able to imagine God saving us, using us, and even loving us—but wanting us? Pursuing us? Longing for us? And yet, as spiritual director Strahan Coleman teaches, God’s greatest desire is to commune with us in the depths of our souls.

Can the presence and power of the Holy Spirit still be experienced? In a world filled with deceptive substitutes and counterfeit spiritual experiences, it’s crucial to grasp the truth. The truth is that God, through the Holy Spirit, dwells within you and empowers you to live a supernatural life.

“Jesus - the Jesus we might discover if we really looked,” explains Wright, “is larger, more disturbing, more urgent than we had ever imagined. We have successfully managed to hide behind other questions and to avoid the huge, world-shaking challenge of Jesus’s central claim and achievement. It is we, the churches, who have been the real reductionists. We have reduced the kingdom of God to private piety; the victory of the cross to comfort for the conscience; Easter itself to a happy, escapist ending after a sad, dark tale. Piety, conscience, and ultimate happiness are important...."

You were created to be filled with joy, peace, confidence, and creativity. But it's easy to go through life holding on to things that weigh you down - guilt, resentment, doubt, worry. When you give space to these negative emotions, they take up space that you need for the good things that move you toward your destiny. How much room are you giving to shame, to regret, to being against yourself? Whatever it is, it's too much. Life is too short for you to live bitter and discouraged, letting your circumstances hold you back.

First came the boom - the loud, deep, unapologetic bellow that seemed to erupt from the very core of the Earth. Eerily, the majestic high-rise slowly leaned to the south. On the 78th floor of the World Trade Center's north tower, no alarms sounded, and no one had information about what had happened at 8:46 a.m. on September 11, 2001. Blind since birth, Michael couldn't see a thing, but he could hear the sounds of shattering glass, falling debris, and terrified people flooding around him and his guide dog, Roselle.
