There are two new books I’d like to recommend! First a disclaimer: both are written by friends!<\/p>\n
Your Sacred Yes, <\/em>Trading Life-Draining Obligations for Freedom, Passion and Joy\u00a0by Susie Larson.<\/p>\n and<\/p>\n Killing Cows,<\/em> Six Sacred Cows Keeping You from A fully Satisfied Life by Tony Ferraro.<\/p>\n Both are excellent. They can be ordered on Amazon.<\/p>\n I love Susie’s “Faith Declaration”:<\/p>\n I declare in the mighty name of Jesus that I am an anointed, appointed child of God! I am filled with he Holy Spirit and empowered by His love. I walk in the Lord’s presence as I live here on earth. I have eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart to do His will. I refuse to throw my yes around like it doesn’t matter. It is a gift, and my time is a gift. God invites me to walk with Him and do the next thing He gives me to do. I am loved, called, and fully equipped to live he powerful life God has assigned to me. I refuse the rat race because God has called me to the sacred race. And I will run with holy passion and conviction.<\/strong><\/p>\n That is just a taste of what is inside her book!<\/p>\n There are 6 sacred cows Tony tackles in his book. Three of them are Judgment, Culture and Fear. You have to buy the book to learn the other three!<\/p>\n Tony says in his book, “Satan desires to separate us from God and from our community. He can do this many different ways, but one key strategy is in the name of “righteousness”. In this case, \u00a0by “righteousness” I really mean self-righteousness. Satan will convince us that we are operating on a higher plane and with the clearest point of view. Subsequently, we act alone and without community, precisely where\u00a0the enemy wants us.”<\/p>\n I recommend both books highly! Enjoy!<\/p>\n Also, Phillip Yancey’s newest book: Vanishing Grace<\/em>.\u00a0Talk about “a safe place”!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There are two new books I’d like to recommend!
