The Language of Blessing (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Tina Boesch | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

"May the Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you."

The language of blessing is found from Genesis to Revelation, but do we really know what it means? In a time when blessing is often reduced to material gain or personal progress, Tina Boesch invites you into God's Word to discover the depth of the true meaning of blessing--life in God's presence.

While living in Turkey, where blessings like "Peace be with you" are a part of everyday speech, Tina began exploring how to respond with blessings from Scripture. A simple search for blessings in the Bible became a decade long journey to understand the meaning and practice of Christian blessing, how blessing was practiced by early Christian communities, and how it has been expressed in art and poetry. Her search became a pilgrimage into knowing God, living in His presence, and learning how to love.

In The Language of Blessing, you'll:

• Explore blessing across the whole story of Scripture, from Abraham's call to become a river of blessing to all the families of the earth.
• Find God blessing his people and calling them to be a blessing to others.
• Determine if God blesses materially or spiritually or both.
• Learn what Jesus taught about the blessed life and how he blessed those around him.
• Integrate blessings from the Bible into your daily life in practical ways.
• Discover the purpose of blessings in relationships.
• Have access to discussion question for reading in groups and prompts to compose blessings for people you love.

In God's presence blessings abound. Be inspired to practice blessing in step with God's Word, speak blessing with wisdom, and live blessing with integrity. May the blessing of Christ become a source of grace for our weary world as you read.
