Z každého príbehu na vás dýchne čaro Vianoc. „Význačnosť Vianoc,“ píše Lucado, „spočíva v tajomstve. V tajomstve, ako sa Boh stal človekom, prečo sa rozhodol prísť a ako veľmi musel milovať svoj ľud. Takéto tajomstvá nemožno pochopiť, rovnako ako lásku nemožno zaznačiť do grafu. O Vianociach sa najlepšie uvažuje v rovine fantázie, nie logiky.“ Presne v tom nám pomáhajú tieto jedinečné vianočné príbehy. Uprostred zhonu, ktorý nás v tejto časti roka zvykne rozptyľovať, nám ukazujú, ako Kristov príchod nadobro zmenil dejiny – a každého z nás.Max Lucado patrí medzi najobľúbenejších kresťanských autorov a vo svojich knihách prináša čitateľom povzbudenie a nádej.

It matters how you finish.A good start is crucial, but it s the end that matters. First Samuel is a book of good starts but bad finishes. Eli was a sterling religious leader, but by the end of his life, the ark of the covenant had been captured and his two rebellious sons killed. Samuel was a prophet of God who anointed kings, but his sons also turned away from the Lord. The most dramatic example is Saul. He seemed to be the perfect choice for Israel s first king. But success led to disobedience, and he slid from prominence to paranoia to suicide. These stories remind us that when it comes to our faith, we also need to finish well. As the apostle Paul wrote, we must run in such a way as to get the prize (1 Corinthians 9:24).The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God s Word. Each lesson includes an opening reflection, background information, an excerpt of the text (from the New International and New King James versions), exploration questions, inspirational thoughts from Max, and a closing takeaway for further reflection. The Life Lessons series is ideal for use in both a small-group setting and for individual study.

Would you like to understand the deeper spiritual meaning of physical illness, parenting handicapped children, drug addiction, alcoholism, the death of a loved one, accidents, deafness, and blindness? Your Soul’s Plan (which was originally published under the title Courageous Souls: Do We Plan Our Life Challenges Before Birth?) explores the premise that we are all eternal souls who plan our lives, including our greatest challenges, before we are born for the purpose of spiritual growth. Through compelling profiles of people who knowingly planned the experiences mentioned above, Your Soul’s Plan shows that suffering is not purposeless, but rather imbued with deep meaning. Working with four gifted mediums, author Robert Schwartz reveals the significance of each person’s life plan and allows us a fascinating look into the “other side.”Each personal story focuses on a specific life challenge, organized by type for easy reference. Accessible both to those familiar with the metaphysical aspects of spirituality and to the general reader, the moving narratives that comprise Your Soul’s Plan help readers awaken to the reality that they are transcendent, eternal souls. With this stirring book as a guide, feelings of anger, resentment, guilt, and victimization are healed and transformed into acceptance, forgiveness, gratitude, and peace. Robert Schwartz is also the author of Your Soul’s Gift: The Healing Power of the Life You Planned Before You Were Born, which explores the pre-birth planning of spiritual awakening, miscarriage, abortion, caregiving, abusive relationships, sexuality, incest, adoption, poverty, suicide, rape, and mental illness. There’s also a chapter about the pre-birth planning we do with our future pets. Robert Schwartz is a hypnotherapist who offers general Spiritual Guidance Sessions, Past Life Soul Regressions, and Between Lives Soul Regressions.

With Stories of Your Life and Others, his masterful debut collection, multiple-award-winning author Ted Chiang deftly blends human emotion and scientific rationalism in eight remarkably varied stories. From a soaring Babylonian tower that connects a flat Earth to the firmament above, to a world where angelic visitations are a wondrous and terrifying part of everyday life; from a neural modification that eliminates the appeal of physical beauty, to an alien language that challenges our very perception of time and reality, Chiang’s unique imagination invites us to question our understanding of the universe and our place in it. The title novella Story of Your Life was the basis for the Academy Award-winning film Arrival, starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner.

A fascinating, entertaining and deeply smart journey into the storytelling brain â “ Will Storr, bestselling author of The Status Game and The Science of Storytelling Life â “ and the quite appalling behaviour of everyone I know â “ finally makes sense. Read this remarkable book â “ Andrew Gold, author of The Psychology of Secrets and host of HereticsWe understand the world through stories. All of our experiences, all of our insights â “ psychologically, we interpret them through specific lenses that have been curated, perfected and passed down throughout human history. Internationally bestselling author Professor Ben Ambridge has quantified those lenses into eight distinct masterplots that can help you to better understand â “ and navigate â “ any experience in life.The mother who wakes up an hour early every day to prep her child s breakfast? She s playing out the Sacrifice plot. The amateur sports team who go on to win the big trophy against all the odds? They re part of the Underdog narrative.Ambridge uses examples from fiction, real life, and popular psychology research to demonstrate how we not only naturally gravitate towards the masterplot narratives, but how we actually use those narratives to manipulate the world around us â “ like the addict who uses the Monster plot to paint their illness as something to overcome, or the boxer who relies on the Revenge narrative to motivate themselves to fight their way back after an embarrassing defeat.These masterplots do more for us than to help us understand the world; theyâ ™re vehicles through which humans have survived. The Stories of Your Life shares fascinating lessons about the nature of humanity, the power of psychology and â “ most importantly â “ the way we see ourselves. Stories are essential for human beings - they allow us to learn, to connect, to empathize. The best stories follow structures that catalyze and amplify their power. Ambridge expertly decodes and deciphers these masterplots so we can all benefit and grow â “ Matt Abrahams, author of Think Faster Talk Smarter and host of Think Fast, Talk Smart
