Wonderstruck (new book from Margaret Feinberg)


I am excited about Margaret Feinberg’s new book Wonderstruck: Awaken to the Nearness of God and the 7-session DVD Bible study which releases Christmas Day. Let me give you a personal invitation for you to take a look, read a bit, and drink in the fullness of life. This book will turn your prayer life upside down, stir your desire to live more abundantly, and take your relationships with others to the next level.

Margaret posted a warning on her site that those who have read Wonderstruck [www.margaretfeinberg.com/wonderstruck] have experienced the following symptoms:

-An inability to stop smiling
-An uncontainable desire to pray
-A loss of interest in judging others
-A quiet, unshakable confidence in God
-A renewed ability to see the wonders of God all around

And from what I’ve seen, they’re all true! Here is a quote stuck out to me as I read a sneak peek of Wonderstruck:

On Living Love . . .
"Breathing life begins with the simplest of actions. See someone. Really see. As you reach out and interact, offer your full attention to whoever is in front of you. Listen to someone. Really listen. Give someone the gift of your presence—your fully present, undivided attention. Pray for someone. Really pray. Though it may feel awkward in the moment, ask if you can offer a prayer, and bless the person with kindness. Give to someone. Really give of yourself. Find an unexpected way to help someone whose needs remain unmet. Radiate the generosity of Christ." —Margaret Feinberg [www.margaretfeinberg.com], Wonderstruck: Awaken to the Nearness of God book and DVD Bible study

That is powerful truth that will change your life.  If you have known me, followed me or come in contact with me at all, you know that I have been overwhelmed by the love of God so much so that I have to share it with others.  In the last few months that has gone to a new level as I believe God has called me to make sure that my prayer life matches the love that I show from God. 

We ought to be living proof that God loves people as Margaret said in that quote.  I hope that you will take a look at the book.  Actually you can get a sneak peek of Wonderstruck by by going to this website http://margaretfeinberg.com/wonderstruck/

Last thing.  I encourage you to follow my friend Margaret.  She and her husband, Leif, are the real deal, awesome encouragers and sweet friends.  I cannot wait till they visit The Community Fellowship once again!

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
