Prayer is often misused or misunderstood. This book features the prayer that Jesus taught his disciples that is often referred to as the "Lord's Prayer." It was not meant to be a memorized mantra, but a pattern for communication with God. There are 12 distinctive steps that I have labeled as: Prominence, Place, Praise, Participation, Provision, Pardon, Prevention, Protection, Possession, Power, Presence, and Permanence in Perspective. This book also addresses the need for meditative "awareness" as a prelude to prayer. Jesus practiced this often when he would withdraw from the crowds to a solitary place.

This book is for pastors, youth pastors, parents, and teens. It takes every major Bible story in Genesis and puts them in a humorous, but scripturally accurate poem. Most Bible stories are geared for small children. This book is not. Small children will enjoy the content when it is shared with them by an older teen or adult, however.Pastors, if you would some great supplemental material for your sermons from Genesis - this is the book to have!

Many are seeking happiness through possessions, power, or fame. It is a journey that is doomed to fail. "Things" can bring temporary satisfaction, but never lasting happiness. There is a way to live a fulfilled life of purpose, but it requires seeking first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness. Then, we can experience peace and joy - - which is what happiness consists of.And by the way, all these "things" that we thought would bring us happiness, will be added unto us. When we seek the "things" first, we are doomed to frustration. "Things" can never bring fulfillment, but they can be enjoyed from a place of fulfillment.Mark Hanby and Darrell Scott pour over 110 combined years of acquired wisdom from their own journeys into this book, which is a roadmap to help you find the treasure hidden within your own human spirit.In this book you will learn that you were given a calling and purpose before you were ever born. You have an inner purpose and an outer purpose. Unfortunately, most people pursue their outer purpose while overlooking, or ignoring the most important -- inner purpose. When you get the inner purpose right, the outer purpose flows successfully.The greatest hinderance to living a fulfilled life is the constant bombardment of the "white noise" generated by our thoughts. Neuroscience shows us that more than 80% of our thoughts are negative and 90% are repetitive. However, there is a way out of this prison. There are ways to change the neuropaths of the brain and quiet the constant chatter that prevents us from attaining the peace of mind we were intended to enjoy.Mark and Darrell provide arrows that point to answers that you can apply in your own life to enjoy a peace that passes understanding and a joy that is beyond description.

Hell is a word that does not exist in the Bible's original languages. It is an English word that came from 3 Greek words and 1 Hebrew word: Hades, Gehenna, Tartarus, and Sheol. None of those are eternal and none of them are the "Lake of Fire" mentioned in Revelations. This book is for the serious student who is looking for truth versus tradition. Everlasting punishment was not believed by most of the early Church fathers and did not become a popular belief until 400 years after Christ. This book looks at scripture, history, and original languages for a comprehensive understanding of this non-Biblical word, "Hell".
