There is never a day when a butterfly in any stage is the same as it was the day before. This is also true of people. The author uses metamorphosis as an analogy, breaking down the steps to personal growth, making it easier to understand, and the process interesting and fun. Inspired by a study of Rom 12:1–2, Butterfly Believers consists of forty devotional readings, each one based on one aspect of the butterfly life cycle. In the same way a butterfly changes every single day, Butterfly Believers are also transforming continuously, moving towards spiritual depth and maturity. In each short chapter, the author presents a specific fact about the egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, or imago, adding one or two appropriate Scripture verses. The result is an inspiring devotional about moving step by step towards maturity and blossoming into the beautiful Imago Dei. Suitable for personal devotions, group discussion, or as a resource for preaching.

Butterfly Believers consists of forty devotional readings, each one based on one aspect of the butterfly life cycle. The author shows how believers are like that in a specific way, adding a relevant verse or two from the Bible. In the same way a butterfly changes every single day, Butterfly Believers are also transforming continuously, moving towards spiritual maturity "until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:13, NIV). The transformations that occur in butterflies take place in every stage of their existence. There is never a day when an egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, or butterfly is the same as it was the day before. This is also true of people. We are always growing, changing, and becoming. There's always more to learn, always room for more refinement. Many believers struggle with their spiritual life and wonder why they're not growing. In this book the author uses metamorphosis as an analogy, breaking down the steps to growth and change, making it easier to understand what it takes to succeed as a follower of Christ, and making the process interesting and fun.

Butterfly Faith is a book about Hope, Faith, and how they coincide with God's purpose for our lives. God is a God of purpose and He created each person with a plan in mind. No one was created just because God was bored. God has a purpose for every person. The butterfly has a purpose because God created it and God never makes anything without knowing why he made it first. So if you are trying to figure out why you were created, allow God to minister to your spirit. God says in His word that He has a plan for each of us. Plans to prosper us. Plans to give us a Hope and a future. Hope fuels faith and faith moves us closer to our purpose. Without faith it is impossible to please God. The revelation that I received from the Holy Spirit allowed me to pen how our faith correlates with the process the caterpillar goes through in order to fulfill its purpose. Just like the caterpillar we too can emerge into our purpose if we don't lose hope, keep the faith and pursue God for our purpose. Seek Him first always.

Do You Love Me? is a very real and personal look at discipleship, revival, and how to position yourself for greater usefulness in God’s Kingdom. From accepting Christ during the 70’s Jesus Movement to leading a church into revival and feeding people in famine-stricken areas of Africa, author and Pastor Rick Tunis uses boldly transparent stories of his life to illustrate: Biblical teachings on the nature of shepherding. The ripple effects of backsliding. The joy of sustained commitment. God’s desire to take ordinary believers from the ranks of the unreliable and enlist them into unimaginable Spirit-led assignments. Are you like many Christians who are unable to maximize your potential to become an effective shepherd of others? If so, you may experience years of frustration, a sense of an unrealized calling, and limited usefulness in the Kingdom of God. Do You Love Me? will encourage you, and give you practical steps for making the change from sheep to shepherd through sustained faithfulness and obedience to God’s Word.

Augustine's dominant image for the human life is peregrinatio, which signifies at once a journey to the homeland (a pilgrimage) and the condition of exile from the homeland. For Augustine, all human beings are, in the earthly life, exiles from their true homeland: heaven. Some, but not all, become pilgrims seeking a way back to the heavenly homeland, a return mediated by the incarnate Christ. Becoming a pilgrim begins with attraction to beauty. The return journey therefore involves formation, both moral and aesthetic, in loving rightly. This image has occasioned a lot of angst in ethical thought in the last century. Augustine's vision of Christian life as a pilgrimage, his critics allege, casts a pall of groaning and longing over this life in favor of happiness in the next. Augustine's eschatological orientation robs the world of beauty and ethics of urgency. In Pilgrimage as Moral and Aesthetic Formation in Augustine's Thought, Sarah Stewart-Kroeker responds to Augustine's critics by elaborating the Christological continuity between the earthly journey and the eschatological home. Through this cohesive account of pilgrimage as a journey toward the right ordering of the desire for beauty and love for God and neighbour, Stewart-Kroeker reveals the integrity of Augustine's vision of moral and aesthetic vision. From the human desire for beauty to the embodied practice of Christian sacraments, Stewart-Kroeker develops an account of the relationship between beauty and morality as the linchpin of an Augustinian moral theology.

Derek Stringer provides a devotional commentary covering the whole book. Its sixty-six chapters make it a miniature Bible in itself. Isaiah's name means 'The Lord Saves' and the primary theme of the book is salvation. Isaiah is widely recognised as the greatest of the prophetic books of the Bible. This greatness lies in the: *depth of its teaching, *importance of its message, *breadth of its subject matter.
