Bøger af Aldo McPherson

"Wisdom for Teens" is a journal by 19 year old Aldo McPherson, specifically aimed to aid his peers in a deeper walk with God. In contains 56 journal entries by Aldo (one for every week of the year), addressing the sensitive topics that teenagers have to face head on - such as faith in God, peer pressure, self acceptance and sexual purity. There is also provision made for the reader to journal his or her own thoughts, questions and prayers every week.

The motor vehicle accident in 2004 was the start of a supernatural journey of faith for the McPherson family. Retah's son, Aldo (then 12 years old), suffered a serious brain injury and was in a coma for several months. While Aldo was in a coma, he had a supernatural experience: he was in heaven, saw God, the angels, Moses and Abraham. Aldo came back with this message: "Mommy, I need to tell the world that Jesus is truly alive!" A Message of Hope is the third book in a series wherein Aldo and Retah testify of the road of faith and hope their family has been walking on with God since the accident. Aldo's letters written in his own handwriting, as inspired by the Holy Spirit (or Wisdom, as Aldo calls Him), tell of his encounters with angels, demons and the fierce spiritual battle they were engaged in. It brings a sobering realisation that what happens in the unseen spiritual realm has a much greater effect on our lives than we think. "Sometimes our circumstances are so overwhelming that we can lose all perspective and hope in the battle. Then we often give up and start agreeing with the lies of enemy instead of standing up and fighting for our Promised Land. But how do you fight if you don't know the nature or strategy of the enemy? Because of all that we have endured, I can say today with unshakable conviction: God is faithful. You can trust Him; and in Him there is always hope!" - Retah McPherson.

"Message from God" is about 12-year-old Aldo Mc Pherson who sustains severe brain injuries in a near fatal car accident. The book tells how God miraculously first heals him and how today speaks to him through the Holy Spirit. It also contains letters and journal inscriptions from Aldo in his own handwriting as he tries to convey the central message that Jesus is alive and coming back for His bride! The first part of the book is a powerful testimony of God's healing power and love for His children, while the last section of the book teaches the principles for living an abundant life. "People don't know or recognize the power of God anymore," says Retha Mc Pherson. "Whenever God's awesome power is manifested and miracles happen, people are skeptical, asking, 'What church do they belong to?' But, I want to tell people that God still performs miracles today. He still talks to His children and He cannot stand lukewarm Christians." Retha explains that God wants our all. "He wants your entire life! Not just your heart," she explains. Filled with Scripture references, and direct quotes from the Bible, "Message from God" will ignite the sparks of the Holy Spirit in your life and bring you closer to God. Aldo's letters, describing his experience, gives a sense of authenticity not often found in miracle stories. This book challenges the complacent church to be introspective. It asks: Is God still your first love? Are you sold-out to Him? These and other pertinent questions have started the debate in the church about its Christ- expectancy and are causing a stir among people from all denominations who seek God's face in earnest.
