"A compelling call to embrace the countercultural values of Jesus, which lead to a life of love, peace, and fulfillment, from the bestselling author of The Deeply Formed Life, winner of the Christianity Today Book Award"--

As I looked around, I saw so many gifted Christians- spiritually and naturally - fall by the Way. Why?, because of past sin. Sin will make you ashamed to go on. The key to overcoming is to know we belongto God and He has our backs.This Book, "TakeAway the Shame", I hope will let Christians know you don't have to befamous to overcome or tell other Christians about the things you went throughto make it. You can be an ordinaryperson - like me - reaching out and telling the World, "through Jesus Christ,we are conquerors".

Beginning with God's vision for humanity and His mission in the world, the reader will be reminded that the Church belongs to God and He has mandated it to gather people from every nation to worship Him. Whenever the Church gathers, it is taking timeouts to get into the huddle to reinforce God's vision, review the mission, refine strategies to expand the potential, and accelerate the completion of the mission.This book highlights God at work among the nations and His invitation to His Church to participate in giving people the opportunity to hear, understand, and respond to the gospel in their cultural frame of reference. More than that, this book challenges the local church to a greater urgency in completing the mission of getting the gospel to neighbors across the street as well as to unreached peoples across the world. It is in this that the Lord is glorified.

What would happen if people around the world stopped everything to pray for 10 days?Since a profound encounter with God in 2004, Jonathan Friz has been inviting people to do just that. He had no idea what he was getting into.With raw vulnerability, Jonathan shares a story filled with victories, failures, excitement, and despair. He isn't afraid to tell of foolish mistakes and bitter disappointments, of soaring exhilaration and crushing hopelessness. Above all, he tells of the wonder that awaits when we step out in faith and God steps in with His abundant mercy, performing miracles beyond our comprehension."10 DAYS reveals, without a doubt, a God-orchestrated strategy to help foster 24/7 prayer, praise and worship unto the return of Jesus!" Dr. Jason Hubbard, International Prayer Council "What an incredible journey Jonathan has been on discovering the greatness of God's heart. This book is a must-read for all those seeking to go deeper with Him." Grant Berry, Founder, Reconnecting Ministries"The story of 10 DAYS is one that I have had the privilege to watch unfold here in New England from the earliest days. When the vision is fully embraced...it inspires, motivates and moves the church in a city or region forward together. This is what we have experienced in Connecticut." Rick McKinniss, Senior Leader, Impact Connecticut"Jonathan Friz has been a dear friend since he took part in our ministry leaders' weekly prayer group in Santa Fe, New Mexico...about 20 years ago. In this book, he has a unique and wonderful story to share of how God so clearly called and enabled him to bring to birth the 10 Days of prayer movement...You will be captivated in reading about the Lord's great faithfulness and Jonathan's exemplary perseverance to guide such a valuable movement that is bringing unity and revival to His Body across our world. Enjoy it!" John Robb, Transformation Prayer Foundation

Having already presented you with the three previous books in Maggie Bellevue's Apostle of Purpose Series, namely, "TREASURES OF THE SOUL - Unearthing God's Purpose For Your Life," "THE PURPOSE DEVOTIONAL - Biblical Illustrations of Those Who Lived In God's Purpose," and "GARDEN OF PURPOSE - A 90-Day Prayer And Affirmation Guidebook For Abundant Living," we present the fourth publication in the series. Daily Purpose 60 Day Journal is a neat, little journal. I urge you not to let its simplicity fool you. Despite its deceptively simple presentation and approach, it combines several principles that will weave gratitude and excellence into the fabric of your new life of purpose. There are five reasons why you will love this daily purpose journal:1. With a positive quote to start your day, and a clear structure to help you focus on what you are grateful for, the Daily Purpose Journal offers you a magnificent way to both start, and to end your day.2. It has been proven by psychologists that it is better to focus on positive behavioral traits, and this journal incorporates that truth into a practical method you can implement with ease, and then simply adopt as a lifetime daily routine.3. The Daily Purpose Journal is deliberately designed for people who don't write journals. I will explain. If you are the sort of person who always wanted to write a journal, but for whom a daily grind, social media intrusion, and an array of other such excuses are distractions, this journal was designed for you. This simple journal will help you eliminate all those excuses.4. The Daily Purpose Journal is an instant photo shoot of your positive experiences. Try to relive the nostalgic feeling you get when you look at an old photograph of yourself. Imagine if you could experience the same feeling just by flipping to a certain day in a journal. You simply zoom in on how you felt on that day. That is why The Daily Purpose Journal will simply be your own chronicle of memories and dreams.5. The Daily Purpose Journal will foolproof your commitment by compelling you to write frequently. The simple and effective actions will get you into the habit of journaling every day. The beginning, and the end of the day, are the only ideal times to think, evaluate and correct our course. Keep this journal, with a pen, on your bedside table. Allow the journal to be your first impulse when you wake up, and the final initiative before you sleep.
