The Harvest Of Grace

Can Aaron and Sylvia find common ground? Or will their unflinching efforts toward opposite goals blur the bigger picture - a path to forgiveness, glimpses of grace, and the promise of love? Although Sylvia Fisher recognizes that most Old Order Amish women her age spend their hours managing a household and raising babies, she has just one focus - tending and nurturing the herd on her family's dairy farm. But when a dangerous connection with an old beau forces her to move far from home, she decides to concentrate on a new start and pour her energy into reviving another family?s debt-ridden farm. After months in rehab, Aaron Blank returns home to sell his Dad's failing farm and move his parents into an easier lifestyle. Two things stand in his way: the father who stubbornly refusesto recognize that Aaron has changed, and the determined new farmhand his parents love like a daughter. Her influence on Aaron's parents could ruin his plans to escape the burdens of farming and build a new life.

A brief summary of a vision received by Rick Joyner was first circulated in major periodicals and newsletters, reaching millions of people in just a year. Here is the complete vision, called by some "the prophetic word for the nineties.

One of the most widely circulated prophecies in recent times, The Harvest is a panorama of coming events, many of which have been fulfilled. The 25th Anniversary Edition features the complete vision and showcases the greatest event yet to be fulfilled.

The harvest is past, the summer has ended, and we are not saved (Jeremiah 8:20).Bishop T.D. Jakes focuses on the problems plaguing the United States of America and addresses issues that many would rather not consider. Racism, though more sophisticated and attitudinal, is as prevalent as it was before the Civil Rights Bill. Homosexuality has become an acceptable alternative lifestyle. Degenerative social and moral issues result in sin and hopelessness-inside churches as well as outside. For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of God; and if it begins with us... (1 Peter 4:17). God knows who is responsible for the breakdown and corrosion within our nation-the church. Until now, no one was willing to take responsibility for society's moral decay; and no one was offering any viable, long-lasting solutions. Today, Bishop Jakes shares how you can make a difference and bring in The Harvest for the glory of God.

Older adults are a diverse cohort with a wide array of capacities, interests, and needs. Despite the fact that aging is a highly individualized and complex process, it continues to be stereotyped, especially in Western cultures. Any stereotype—positive or negative—fails to acknowledge the diversity of individuals within the group and can be used to justify social oppression and prejudice. All too often, older adults are viewed as a burden on society rather than celebrated for the incredible gifts and talents, which they have to offer. Written from a Christian perspective, this book provides insight into the spiritual needs and religious practices of older adults. The author’s positive faith construct provides the lens through which to look beyond social stereotypes and, thereby, to positively influence the health, well-being and quality of life of older adults.
