Stronger: Finding Hope in Fragile Places
Angela Thomas - 2013
Through biblical teaching and real life application, this study teaches that believers do not have to live in weakness. God is stronger than every struggle you will ever face. All who receive Jesus Christ have been hidden in Him. We have been made alive in Him through the forgiveness of our sin, filled in Him with all the fullness given to Him, brought near to God in Him, and blessed with every spiritual blessing in Him. As we have received Christ Jesus, we are now called to walk in a manner worthy of Him. Strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in so great an inheritance. Today, because of Christ, you can live stronger. This study will guide women into biblical truth through exposition and story, so they live confident, transformed, Christ-radiating lives marked by His strength. Through accurate Biblical teaching, real life observation, and everyday application, Stronger will guide participants to: •Stop facing today in weakness and be strengthened by God's promises to every Christ follower •Tackle everyday struggles empowered with a biblical understanding of God's riches and His love •Overcome spiritual immaturity through Christ-centered teaching that produces growth and change •Break life-long patterns of defeat and despair, refocused on the glorious hope promised to us in Christ •Remove paralyzing inner anxiousness and truly live in the peace that surpasses all understanding •Put an end to the self-focused distractions of striving, comparison, and performance so that your life will accomplish more for God's glory •Smile at the uncertain future, not because we are stronger, but because Christ in us, is stronger than all our problems

The Night the Angels Came: Miracles of Protection and Provision in Burundi
Chrissie Chapman - 2016
She had been there just three years when a coup was declared, and the country descended into a state of civil war. It lasted for thirteen long years. During that time, God directed her to work with the orphans and widows. She started a centre for abandoned babies and traumatised children and saw the Lord performing remarkable miracles in the lives of people who had lost everything. Chrissie adopted three children herself, and has raised more than fifty others to young adulthood. Again and again she has witnessed miracles of protection and provision. When the war started, Chrissie, her adopted children, and the health staff were living in a rural location on top of a mountain, in a healing centre, with maternity clinic and dispensary. Every night there was gunfire, and every day people would come seeking refuge. One night, she and David Ndarahutse, the mission director, were sitting praying amid the fighting, when David said, 'Chrissie, look up.' There were dozens of angels standing on top of the walls of the healing centre. That was the night the angels came. 'From that moment on,' Chrissie records, 'I have never experienced or felt fear for my life.' Today Chrissie divides her time between Burundi, where she continues to care for the teenagers in her charge, and England, Canada and America, where she speaks widely about the faithfulness and power of God.
