Our Story of Faith – How Water of Life Was Built
$10.00
Water of Life’s start was simple but miraculous. It was just God and us, but mostly God. He made something out of nothing. Pastor Dan Carroll wanted to be a missionary and truly expected the church to fail so he could go overseas. But people kept coming, God kept working. We put out chairs, sang songs, preached the Word, loved our neighbors, built buildings, and kept growing. But land and buildings are never the story. Faith is always the story. And people are the story. Still, God uses land and buildings to build faith and to touch people, and God wanted Water of Life to touch more people in bigger ways. We stepped up in faith, then watched God unfold miracle after miracle and change life after life. This is the Water of Life story, and it really has just begun…

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak
$26.99Add to cartGod always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
