"Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God." John 17:3 NIV This 40-day devotional is a profound exploration and perceptive explanation for the true and often misunderstood nature of faith. T.W.S. Hunt explores the various stages and settings, as well as tensions and tussles, in which faith must survive--but can also thrive. He shows that however far away we might feel from God, our continued faithfulness can allow God to feel that much closer to us. Written with exquisite style and extraordinary insight, this compact collection of forty meditations promises to be both revolutionary and revelatory. For it contemplates the ways in which our relationship with God is best measured, not by how close we feel to God, but how close God feels to us.

Keith Repult spent his life looking for love and running from God. After growing up bouncing between parents, grandparents, and foster homes, Keith ended up in California in his early twenties-homeless, addicted, and broken. One night he met the owner of a local adult bookstore and soon became a worldwide leader in the porn industry. As a self-made multimillionaire, "King Keith" was living a life of luxury, but was completely empty and addicted to alcohol, drugs, and pornography. Still trying to find the answers, Keith and his wife bought a vacation house at the beach and opened a yogurt shop. That shop opened the door for them to encounter the grace of Jesus Christ. Using the acronym BREATHE, Just Breathe provides practical tools for reflection, hope, and help for those drowning in the pain of addiction. It is also a powerful ministry resource, using the steps Keith took to find freedom from addiction. Not only does God know everything about us, He also relentlessly pursues us with an unfailing love. Keith's story reminds us that we've never gone too far to be made new by the big grace of God.

From the time Kim Crabill experienced a life-altering trauma at age four, she became an expert in hiding her hurt and confusion behind a mask. The trick, she discovered, was to sing a little louder in choir, study a little harder at school, and smile a little wider with friends. Then no one would notice how damaged her heart was. Kim became a classic overachiever academically and socially. As an adult, she could even speak before crowds with her mask fully intact. But she could not hide from the pain of her past, and pain that expressed itself through anorexia and diet pill addiction, loneliness, depression, and anxiety attacks. In her transparent story, Burdens to Blessings, Kim invites you along her journey from shame and sadness toward healing and hope. In the process you'll encounter the upside-down truth that God uses you because of your hurt and uncertainty. The very things you regret the most-the things you hope no one ever discovers about you-are what God wants to use to enrich your life and the lives of others around you. Discover the confidence and courage to quit hiding and show your true self to God and others. Then watch out, because you'll be showered with opportunities beyond your wildest dreams to help other hurting people change their burdens to blessings.
