This book is a record of love and endurance that should stimulate us to examine our own lives and how we respond to adversity.
Gloria: ¿QuÉ quieres decir?
by DR Pensacola H. Jefferson¿Qué es la SANTA GLORIA de Dios en este versículo? La SANTA GLORIA de Dios encarna TODAS las manifestaciones de su SANTA presencia atestiguada en sus SANTAS BONDADURAS, sus SANTOS BUENOS HECHOS / PODER, y su SANTO NOMBRE que lo distingue de TODOS los demás dioses falsos. “… Tú (Dios) eres BUENO y haces BIEN (bondad santa)…” (Salmo 119: 68 KJV). “… Cuenta Su gloria entre las naciones, Sus maravillas (santas) entre todos los pueblos…” (1 Crónicas 16:24 LBLA). “… Gloria en su santo nombre…” (1 Crónicas 16:10 NASB). Cuando era niño, le decían que no mirara directamente al sol. Si mira al sol a simple vista, el daño a la retina es irreversible. La SANTA GLORIA de Dios es más brillante que la del sol. “… Y la ciudad no tenía necesidad de sol… porque la (santa) gloria de Dios la iluminaba…” (Apocalipsis 21:23 RV). LA SANTA GLORIA de Dios se manifiesta a través de sus creaciones. Su SANTA GLORIA por sí sola está tan APARTE del PECADO y TAN PURA que es como una luz cegadora y transparente que es demasiado brillante para el ojo humano desnudo. “… Resplandeció con la GLORIA de Dios, y su resplandor era como el de una joya preciosa, como un jaspe, claro como el cristal…” (Apocalipsis 21:11 NVI). En Éxodo, "... Moisés dijo," ... muéstrame tu gloria ". ... El Señor dijo ... "no puedes ver mi rostro, porque nadie puede verme y vivir". … Cuando pase mi GLORIA, yo… te cubriré con mi mano hasta que haya pasado… ”(Éxodo 33: 16-23 NVI).
Glorification: An Introduction (Short Studies In Systematic Theology Ser.)
by Graham A. Cole Oren R. MartinHow Sanctification Transforms Christians Into Glorified Beings Facing sin, suffering, and an uncertain future, it’s easy to become pessimistic, but believers in Christ know the best is yet to come. God promises that one day he will redeem his image bearers and renew the earth. Few books are written on the doctrine of glorification, but its promise of restoration brings urgent hope for Christ followers. In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, Graham A. Cole examines the concept of divine glory as well as God’s plan for redeeming individual believers, the church, and the universe. Identifying two phases of glorification—one in this life and a final transformation into Christlikeness—Cole defines the role of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in the sanctification process. Through careful study of Scripture, he shows Christians how their future identity as glorified beings should impact their perspective today.

Now Patti Hummel has pulled together a year of readings from the man built around his favorite theme that "man’s chief aim is to glorify God and enjoy him forever.”

Glorious Ruin
by Tullian TchividjianIn this world, one thing is certain: Everybody hurts. Suffering may take the form of tragedy, heartbreak, or addiction. Or it could be something more mundane (but no less real) like resentment, loneliness, or disappointment. But there's unfortunately no such thing as a painless life. In Glorious Ruin, best-selling author Tullian Tchividjian takes an honest and refreshing look at the reality of suffering, the ways we tie ourselves in knots trying to deal with it, and the comfort of the gospel for those who can't seem to fix themselves--or others. This is not so much a book about Why God allows suffering or even How we should approach suffering--it is a book about the tremendously liberating and gloriously counterintuitive truth of a God who suffers with you and for you. It is a book, in other words, about the kind of hope that takes the shape of a cross.

Glory Days
by Max LucadoThe wilderness. Maybe you know it well. The Israelites sure did. After all, they spent forty years wandering the desert. Victories were scarce. Progress was slow. They were free from Pharaoh but not free from fear. Saved but stuck. Sounds a lot like midlife misery. Caught in a rut. Stalled out. Running on empty. Are you mired in the same? You can name the day you became a Christian and escaped Egypt. But you can't remember the last time you defeated a temptation or experienced an answered prayer. You're fighting the same battles you fought the day you came to Christ. You're out of Egypt, but Egypt's not out of you. Isn't the Christian life supposed to be better than this? Jesus offers abundant joy. Yet you live with oppressive grief. The epistles speak of grace. You shoulder guilt. You are more than a conqueror yet are commonly conquered by temptation or weaknesses. But thereÆs good news. With GodÆs help you can close the gap between the person you are and the person you want to be. Like Joshua and the Israelites, you can move from a wilderness existence into a promised inheritance. This is God's vision for your life. You, at full throttle. You, as you were intended. You, as victor over the Jerichos and giants. You, minus the stumbles, hurts, and hate. You and your Promised Land life. New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado invites readers to leave the wilderness and discover a life defined by grace, refined by challenge, and aligned with a heavenly call. By studying the life of Joshua and the biblical book that bears his name, Lucado reveals GodÆs promises for every step and reminds readers that God still fights for them.
Glory Days Study Guide: Living Your Promised Land Life Now
by Max LucadoLife has a way of taking the life out of us. Often we go through situations where the challenge seems so much greater than our strength. During such times, we can find hope and inspiration from the story of Joshua. God had called Joshua to take over from Moses and lead the Israelites into a paradigm shift from wilderness wandering to promise-believing. In Canaan, they would not fight for victory but fightfrom victory. God had a Promised Land in store for them, but they had to grasp that reality, change their mindsets, and take action to receive it. The same is true for us today. God is telling us that our best days--our "glory days"--are still ahead of us. We only need to grasp that truth and live in faith to realize this promise. This study guide includes leader helps, discussion questions, conversation starters, and between-session activities to enhance your understanding and application of Max's teaching. Session Titles: Session 1: These Days Are Glory Days Session 2: Unpack Your Bags Session 3: Call on Your Commander Session 4: No Failure Is Fatal Session 5: The God-Drenched Mind Session 6: God Fights for You Designed for use with Glory Days: A DVD Study(978-07180-3603-4).

Glory Happening: Finding the Divine in Everyday Places
by Kaitlin B. Curtice"A stunner...every sentence is a feast for the senses." —Rachel Held Evans When you have an experience and tell the story of that experience to someone, something sacred happens inside of you. That experience doesn't have to be an extravagant moment, but it can be beautiful, nonetheless. And as you store up all those stories and share them, you grow your world's boundaries. You build community and remind yourself that every moment of your life counts for something holy, good, and glorious. The search for glory will bring freedom and a fresh perspective to whatever season you happen to find yourself in. Glory Happening is a book of stories and prayers that remind you to take a closer look at your everyday circumstances, to find the magical beauty in everyday experiences. It is an invitation to live deeply into every moment with the expectation that something good will find you at the end of the day. And once you experience glory, you have words to speak, a prayer to pray, and a story to tell. And so glory grows from person to person, and community is created around the reality that God is truly in our midst.
Glory and Agony: Isaac's Sacrifice and National Narrative
by Yael S. FeldmanGlory and Agony is the first history of the shifting attitudes toward national sacrifice in Hebrew culture over the last century. Its point of departure is Zionism's obsessive preoccupation with its haunting "primal scene" of sacrifice, the near-sacrifice of Isaac, as evidenced in wide-ranging sources from the domains of literature, art, psychology, philosophy, and politics. By placing these sources in conversation with twentieth-century thinking on human sacrifice, violence, and martyrdom, this study draws a complex picture that provides multiple, sometimes contradictory insights into the genesis and gender of national sacrifice. Extending back over two millennia, this study unearths retellings of biblical and classical narratives of sacrifice, both enacted and aborted, voluntary and violent, male and female-Isaac, Ishmael, Jephthah's daughter, Iphigenia, Jesus. Glory and Agony traces the birth of national sacrifice out of the ruins of religious martyrdom, exposing the sacred underside of Western secularism in Israel as elsewhere.
Glory in the Margins: Sunday Poems
by Nikki Grimes"Glory in the Margins is a gift and a challenge: a collection that could be well-worn by pastors and prisoners, could be healing in both a hospital room or busy auditorium, and could offer inspiration in both the quiet of personal devotion or a bustling sanctuary." —Dana VanderLugt, Reformed JournalNew York Times bestselling author and poet Nikki Grimes explains, "A study of scripture reveals that Jesus spent a lot of time with people in the margins. As an African American, I live in the margins, and I can tell you that it's a place most of us would rather not be. And yet, I know there is always glory to be found in the margins because of the Lord's presence in, and with us." "As Poet Laureate of my Grace Brethren Church in Southern California, it's my job to distill the heart of the weekly sermon into a poem. I dive into each week's chosen scripture, viewing it from my own perspective as Black, as woman, as poet, always a little left of center, and looking for the glory to be found in the margins of life, and of the text. Of course, those of us who live in the margins are not what anyone expects, and the very notion that God might speak through us, through me, may seem a bit wild. But he does. 'I will pour out my spirit on all flesh,' said the Lord. God's busy in the hearts of all who call on him."Glory in the Margins is published under Paraclete Press's Iron Pen imprint. In the book of Job, a suffering man pours out his anguish to his Maker. From the depths of his pain, he reveals a trust in God's goodness that is stronger than his despair, giving humanity some of the most beautiful and poetic verses of all time. Paraclete's Iron Pen imprint is inspired by this spirit of unvarnished honesty and tenacious hope.
