The Power of God's Love: A 31 Day Devotional to Encounter the Father's Greatest Gift
by Charles F. StanleyBelieve it or not, the greatest need people express is for love. People want to know someone loves them and will go to any extreme to find this. They move from relationship to relationship thinking the next person they meet will satisfy. But it never happens. They come up empty-handed--feeling more alone, unloved, and mistreated than ever. There is only one Person who can meet all of your needs, especially the need to be loved, and that is Jesus Christ. The Power of God's Love by Dr. Charles Stanley is a thirty-one day devotional that provides insight into God's love for you. Dr. Stanley writes, "Far too often, we hear about the love of God and think, 'But you don't know what I have done. God could never love me, much less accept me.' The awesome truth is this: God loves you unconditionally. He created you in love, He has a purpose for your life, and He has promised to love you forever. When you give your life to Him, your search for true love is over!"

Moments of Grace usually come as surprises, but, Richo shows, we can learn to expect them--for Grace is a resource any of us can access. He begins by showing where to look to recognize the Grace that surrounds you: in nature, in religion/spirituality, in relationships, in yourself. He then provides practical exercises for learning how to manifest Grace in your life--to recognize and claim the help the universe is constantly offering you.

The Power of Hospitality: An open heart, open hand and open home will change your World
by Chuck Crismier Kathie Crismier"God's plan for you includes hospitality. An open heart, open hand and open home is God's divine design to open the hearts of people everywhere it is practiced. Hospitality connects our hearts with God's heart, yet something dramatic has happened in our hearts, closing the doors of our homes, causing Christianity Today to ask, "Whatever Happened to Hospitality?" The Apostle Paul reminds we must all be "given to hospitality." Pastors and leaders must be "lovers of hospitality." And the Apostle Peter declared, "The end of all things is at hand... use hospitality ... without grudging." Here is hidden power reserved by God for those who dare to practice it. It is PERSONAL, it is PRACTICAL, and it is PROPHETIC! The Power of Hospitality will change your life... yes even your family, church, city and world if you will let it."

In The Power of Humility, R. T. Kendall challenges us to look deeply into our hearts and motives to recognize the pride and self-righteousness there. Using personal stories and enlightening examples from the Bible, he demonstrates how pride interferes with a close relationship with God and reveals how to overcome pride and become more like Jesus.

The Power of Mind: A Tibetan Monk's Guide to Finding Freedom in Every Challenge
by Khentrul Lodrö T'hayé RinpocheA modern guide to lojong—ancient Buddhist techniques for transforming all circumstances, including pain, anxiety, and stress, into mental well-being that benefits us and the people around us.We&’ve all heard platitudes about cultivating love and compassion, but how can we actually develop these qualities in ourselves and—crucially—share them in our world? The Power of Mind provides the proven path of lojong, or mind training, for changing our experience from the inside out. Regardless of what&’s happening in our lives, Khentrul Rinpoche teaches that our route to freedom lies in our minds. A thousand years ago, the Indian saint Atisha risked his life to seek out lojong teachings in Indonesia, and then brought them to Tibet, where they flourished and spread to the rest of the world. This book introduces those teachings—the Seven Key Points of Mind Training—which have been passed down from teacher to student for centuries. Khentrul Rinpoche was inspired by his own teachers, who like alchemists, were able to follow these techniques during the Cultural Revolution and transform their immense suffering into something positive. The Power of Mind guides the reader through these transformative practices one by one—from recognizing the value of our human life to overcoming the sources of suffering, together with meditation advice for incorporating these insights into our daily lives. This wisdom is accessible to everyone—whether Buddhist or not. As Khentrul Rinpoche states, &“Peace and happiness can be attained, but not by searching for something in the outside world. They start within us then extend out to the entire globe.&”
