A Love Worth Giving To You at Christmas

A Love Worth Giving To You at Christmas

Max Lucado

Thomas Nelson Publishers
2002
nidottu
Spread the spirit of the Christmas season by giving the true love worth giving—God's love. A Love Worth Giving to You at Christmas will remind you that before we can pass love on, we must learn to receive it ourselves.Based on Max Lucado's book A Love Worth Giving, this holiday booklet tells the story of a love that has no bounds, no limits, no end. The Christmas kind of love. A love worth giving to others and to you. There's a problem, though. How can you give something that you never truly received?A Love Worth Giving to You at Christmas will shed light on God's generous gift, giving you the encouragement that you need to:Embrace your place as a dearly loved child in his heavenly familyLearn to love others well by living lovedGraciously accept the unending love that God has for youMaybe it has something to do with the lavishness of the gift that first Christmas morning, the extravagance of love that came in the form of a tiny, helpless newborn. Consider the gift for a moment, what Jesus really did. He swapped a spotless castle for a grimy stable. He exchanged the worship of angels for the company of killers. Why? Because that's what love does. It puts the beloved before itself.Your soul was more important than his blood. Your eternal life was more important than his earthly life. Your place in heaven was more important to him than his place in heaven, so he gave up his so you could have yours. And that's what extravagant giving is all about.Reminding us of the most priceless gift of all, A Love Worth Giving to You at Christmas invites you to let this love worth giving fill you, flood you, and change you forever.

God Came Near

Max Lucado

Thomas Nelson Publishers
2004
nidottu
Join bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado as he brings to life the most important event in history: when God Came Near.It all happened in a moment--a most remarkable moment: God came near. He came not as a flash of light or as an unapproachable conqueror, but as One whose first cries were heard by a peasant girl and a sleepy carpenter. The hands that held him were not manicured, but callused and dirty. No silk. No ivory. No hype. No party. No hoopla. God came near, just for you.In God Came Near, Max reminds us that just because we want a calm life doesn't mean we'll have one. The minute you sink down in the easy chair of life, heaven pushes the remote and changes the channel:The financial aid office says "no."A doctor says "pregnant."The boss says "transfer."The test grade reads "F."The auto mechanic says "totaled."Despite the challenges we face on earth, the Bible gives us a chance to be eyewitnesses of Jesus' majesty. We can take on our problems, we can have a fresh start tomorrow, and we can rest assured in the safety of God's embrace. Christ entered our world, and, as a result, we can enter his.God Came Near invites you to travel back in time and celebrate Christ the Son of God as he became man. When you catch a vision of this incredible moment, let it mark the beginning of a new perspective, a new life, and a new appreciation for Jesus. Because when you see the truth of his life, it will change yours forever.

People with questions. The Bible is absolutely full of them. A crook on a cross. A wild man in a cemetery. A five-time divorcée. A despondent cripple. A grieving sister. A father at the end of his rope.Why are these portraits in the Bible? So we can look back in amazement at what Jesus did? No ... these aren't just Sunday school stories. They are historic moments in which a real God met real pain so we could answer the question. "Does God care when I hurt?"On every page of this powerfully moving book,New York Times best-selling author Max Lucado reminds us that the God who spoke to Moses at the burning bush still speaks to you today. The God who forgave King David still offers you forgiveness. The God who helped men and women in ages past still comes into your world, and he comes to do what you can't, to move the stone away so you can see his answer.

There really is more to this life than you've been told.We've been demanding our way since day one ..."I want a spouse that makes me happy and coworkers that always ask my opinion.""I want weather that suits me and traffic that helps me and government that serves me."Self-promotion. Self-preservation. Self-centeredness ..."It's all about me."They all told us it was, didn't they? And we took them up on it. We thought self-celebration would make us happy ...But believing that has created chaos -- noisy homes, stress-filled businesses, cutthroat relationships. We've chased so many skinny rabbits, says Max Lucado, that we've missed the fat one: the God-centered life.If you want to shift into high gear with purpose, this is it: life makes sense when we accept our place! Our pleasures, our problems, our gifts and talents ... when they're all for the One who created us, we suddenly gain what we've been missing and find what we've been seeking.Let Max Lucado show you how to make the shift of a lifetime. How to bump your life off self-center. How to be changed and experience the meaning-charged life you were meant to have. Your discovery starts here.

In the Eye of the Storm

Max Lucado

Thomas Nelson Publishers
2012
nidottu
One Day in the Life of ChristCall it a tapestry of turmoil: a noisy pictorial in which the golden threads of triumph knot against the black, frazzled strings of tragedy.Call it a symphony of emotions: a sunrise-to-sunset orchestration of extremes. One score is brassy with exuberance—the next moans with sorrow.Whatever you call it—call it real. Author Max Lucado calls it “the second-most stressful day in the life of our Savior.” Before the morning becomes evening Jesus has reason to weep, then run, then shout, then curse, then praise, then doubt. Within a matter of moments his world is turned upside down.Sound familiar? The pink slip comes. The doctor calls. The divorce papers arrive. The check bounces. The life that had been calm is now chaotic. The world that had been serene is now stormy. Assailed by doubts. Pummeled by demands.If you’ve ever wondered if God in heaven can relate to you on earth, then read and reread this pressure-packed day in the life of Christ. It is the only day, aside from the crucifixion, that is recorded in all four gospels. Lucado has interwoven the four accounts in such a way you will be assured that God knows how you feel.And you will be assured that within every torrent there is a calm center—a place you can stand when the wind picks up: the eye of the storm.The book you receive may have a different cover design than shown on the website.

Find hope as you learn to hear God's voice and realize He is searching for you. How far do you want God to go in getting your attention? Don't answer too quickly. Give it some thought.What if God moved you to another land? As he did Abraham. What if he called you out of retirement? Remember Moses? How about the voice of an angel or the bowel of a fish? Á la Gideon and Jonah.God does what it takes to get our attention.It's the message of the Bible. It's the message of this book: the relentless pursuit of God. God on the hunt. God in the search. Peeking under the bed for hiding kids, stirring the bushes for lost sheep. Searching, wrestling, pulling us back to him, over and over again. Kind, then stern. Tender and tough. Faithfully firm. Patiently urgent. Eagerly tolerant. Softly shouting. Gently thundering.With pictures and parables from everyday life Max Lucado calls us to trust God in tough times. God's goal, Max reminds us, is to get us home safely. He'll do whatever it takes to save his children. God's thunder is gentle. And his gentleness never ends.

God loves you just the way you are, but he refuses to leave you there. He wants you to be just like Jesus. Can you think of a better offer? In Just Like Jesus, pastor and bestselling author Max Lucado reminds us that being just like Jesus feels like an impossible goal until we accept one simple truth: God loves us.Jesus felt no guilt; God wants you to feel no guilt. Jesus had no bad habits; God wants to do away with yours. Jesus had no fears; God wants the same for you. Jesus had no anxiety about death; you needn't either. God's desire, his plan, his ultimate goal is to make you into the image of Christ. Not only does God love each of us exactly as we are, he wants us, little by little, to become like him.He doesn't love us and leave us alone; he loves us enough to live within us, making our hearts his home. But doing so requires a bit of sprucing up, remodeling, refurnishing. Why? Because he wants us to have a heart like his too. Just Like Jesus will teach you how far God will go to transform us into his likeness.Along the way, Max addresses questions that might arise as you examine the peaceful, passionate, and pure heart of Christ, including:How do we know that God wants us to be made in his image?How does this change occur?If God wants me to be just like Jesus, why do I still seem just like me?In Just Like Jesus, Max gives you the tools you need to better understand God's gracious gift of transformation and restoration, so you, too, can start to live Just Like Jesus.
