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!

Francis Chan's "Forgotten God" (brand new book)

One of the most powerful preachers, writers and leaders of our time, in my opinion, is Francis Chan.  His first book, Crazy Love , revolutionized my thoughts about God's love as well as my interacting with God.  Now it is time for a brand new book from Chan being released tomorrow, September 1st.  The book is Forgotten God .   This is a phenomenal book about the power that Christians and the church can and must tap into.  All of it is within the Holy Spirit.  Francis talks about the power that was seen in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit began to move among people.  It is true that many have avoided or maybe forgotten what the Holy Spirit is all about.   And like the Savior who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts.  We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things.  It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share.  For me C.S. Lewis is one of those.  He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.  It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before.  He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born.  It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian.  He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
