“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” — 1 John 2:15 Those who struggle with habitual sin are keenly aware of the despair and fatigue that comes from trying harder and harder to control the desire to do what is wrong in the eyes of God. For this person, there be times of limited success in overcoming sin, but eventually he/she falls back again into unhealthy patterns. In "The Expulsive Power of a New Affection", Thomas Chalmers argues that no matter how hard we may try, we’ll never overcome habitual sin in our lives unless we switch our affections from the world to Jesus Christ. Thankfully Christ loved us first and is more than willing to set us free if we’d only realize the true Gospel power that we can all have in our lives today.

And its brief chapters, organized around various themes, make it perfect for quick reference, as does the appendix with tips for stimulating prayer.

We all encounter times when our spirit feels dry, when doubt looms. The opportunity to tour Israel came at a good time. For months, my life has been a mindless plodding through necessary routine, as monotonous as an all-night shift on an assembly line. Life gets that way sometimes, when nothing specific is wrong but the world around us seems drained of color. Even my weekly worship experiences and daily quiet times with God have felt as dry and stale as last year's crackers. I'm ashamed to confess the malaise I've felt. I have been given so much. Shouldn't a Christian's life be an abundant one, as exciting as Christmas morning, as joyful as Easter Sunday? With gripping honesty, Lynn Austin pens her struggles with spiritual dryness in a season of loss and unwanted change. Tracing her travels throughout Israel, Austin seamlessly weaves events and insights from the Word . . . and in doing so finds a renewed passion for prayer and encouragement for her spirit, now full of life and hope.

In this book, I share with you a little about myself. How I grew up and my meager beginning while being raised by my grandparents back in Cincinnati, Ohio. The lack of financial management training I received while growing up and my unawareness to my condition of lower-class living. I give you some insight into some of my struggles with racism while in the military and the effects it had on me navigating the military's system of advancement. How some military personnel believed that race was a determining factor in a person's capacity to do certain jobs and, consequently, shouldn't have equal access to promotions and opportunities. I share multiple scriptures with you as proof positive that God, the creator of heaven and Earth, the King of kings, and the Lord of lords, is our source; and it is He who gives us, the believers, the power to gain wealth. The Parable of the Talent in the book of Matthew and the Parable of the Minas in the book of Luke are solid evidence that God expects us to be good servants of the money He blesses us with. And I also share with you my six-step financial management system that will help any believer who follows it to become financially secure and a good servant of the money God has and will bless you with. The six-step financial management system is sequential--meaning, you start with the first step, and you don't progress to the second step until the first step is complete. Doing so will ensure you have built a financial foundation that will not be shaken or destroyed by the tests, trials, and tribulations we all experience in this world. It ends with answering three questions about retirement: When do you start preparing for retirement? How much money will you need for retirement? And what does your retirement look like? This is the first book and it will serve as a financial foundation to those who absorb its contents. To you, that have ears to hear, if you read and believe you will achieve your financial goals. It is the will of God! 2

A Christian's Journey is divided into four sections - Discipleship - Basic Doctrines - The Care of the Soul and Insights into God's Word. The basic need in the Church today is teaching "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" (NKJV) as well as to have a deeper relationship with God.
