Metafora Del Bosque – (Spanish)
$14.99
La vida es lo suficientemente complicada como para, ademas, perderse en el bosque por no saber usar los elementos que uno lleva en la mochila. Eso es lo que nos pasa con las emociones: tenemos una herramienta potentisima para nuestro viaje, pero no se nos dice como utilizarla, y mas de una vez todos nos hemos perdido en ese bosque que son nuestros sentimientos.
Este libro busca que conozcamos bien el equipaje con el que enfrentamos el trayecto. Porque una vez estemos en el bosque tenemos que caminar para salir. No podemos teletransportarnos. Hay que atravesarlo, y debemos saber como hacerlo.
De todos los instrumentos que podemos llevar encima en una travesia por el bosque, solo la brujula indica el norte. El resto de los dispositivos sirve para otros usos. Insistir, por ejemplo, en que el mercurio del termometro nos dirige al norte solo nos mantendra perdidos, y el tiempo corre en contra. No es cosa pequea el bosque como para tomarlo a la ligera. Las emociones tampoco. Este ejemplo puede parecer muy simple, ya que todo el mundo sabe para que sirve un termometro. !Y nadie podria ser tan tonto como para confundir una cosa con la otra! Sin embargo es sorprendente saber cuan frecuente se da este error en el terreno emocional al confundir las emociones.
Es hora de encontrarnos para aprender a salir, y no tener que desorientarnos otra vez cuando podemos evitarlo. Esta vez las emociones jugaran a nuestro favor.
Life is complicated enough to also get lost in the forest because of not knowing how to use the items one carries in the backpack. That’s what happens with emotions: we have a powerful tool for our journey, but we’re not told how to use it, and more than once, we all have gotten lost in that forest that is our feelings.
This book seeks for us to become familiar with the luggage we face the journey with. Because once we’re in the forest, we have to walk to get out. We can’t teleport. We have to cross it, and we must know how to do it.
Of all the instruments we can carry on a journey through the forest, only the compass points north. The rest of the devices serve for other uses. Insisting, for example, that the mercury in the thermometer points us north will only keep us lost, and time is running out. The forest is not a trivial matter to take lightly. Neither are emotions. This example may seem very simple, since everyone knows what a thermometer is for. And nobody could be so foolish as to confuse one thing with another! However, it is s

Irresistible : Reclaiming The New That Jesus Unleashed For The World
$19.99A book for anyone who cares deeply about the future of the church.
Once upon a time there was a version of our faith that was practically . . . irresistible. But that was then. Today we preach, teach, write, and communicate as if nothing has changed. As if “The Bible says it,” still settles it.
It’s time to hit pause on much of what we’re doing and consider the faith modeled by our first-century brothers and sisters who had no official Bible, no status, and humanly speaking, little chance of survival.
What did they know that we don’t?
What made their faith so compelling, so defensible, so irresistible?
Buckle up . . . you’re about to find out. More importantly, Andy will invite you to embrace the version of faith that, against all odds, initiated a chain of events resulting in the most significant and extensive cultural transformation the world has ever seen. A version we must embrace if we are to be salt and light in an increasingly savorless and dark world.
This expanded, softcover edition includes a helpful Q&A where Andy answers several common–and controversial–questions including:
*What is the role of Scripture in the Christian life?
*How should we use the Old Testament in discipleship?
*How do you avoid “burying the lead” in evangelism?
*What are the differences between the Old and New Covenants?
*Why should we make love the focus of our faith?Andy also shares thoughts on how to make the New Covenant the basis of your preaching and some ideas on how to begin in sharing your faith with others. This bonus material is a helpful complement to the message of Irresistible and useful in conversations and discussions about the book.

Emotionally Healthy Discipleship
$26.99Pastors and church leaders want to see lives changed by the gospel. They work tirelessly to care for people, initiate new programs and ministries, preach new sermon series, and keep up with the latest trends. Sadly, it would seem that much of this effort is not resulting in deeply changed disciples.
Why? Because many churches are unknowingly operating from a shallow discipleship that allows people to recycle the same problems year after year. Church goers are increasingly passive with lives not distinct from the culture. People are not able to integrate anger and sadness. Many are defensive and incapable of revealing their own weaknesses. Church leaders desperately need a better way of teaching people what it means to follow Jesus in a transformative way.
In Emotionally Healthy Discipleship, bestselling author Pete Scazzero combines three decades of wisdom with hard lessons from his own ministry journey. He lays out what is required for church leaders to multiply deeply-changed people who are growing in relationship with God, themselves and others.
Scazzero begins with four beneath-the-surface, systemic gaps that undermine serious discipleship. He provides a clear vision for a church culture that deeply changes lives and then practically unpacks the seven biblical marks of emotionally healthy discipleship:
1. Learn to Be Before You Do
2. Follow the Crucified, Not the Americanized, Jesus
3. Receive the Gift of Limits
4. Befriend Suffering and Loss
5. Break the Power of the Past
6. Practice the Presence of People
7. Lead Out of Brokenness and VulnerabilityFinally, he lays out practical steps for you to create an emotionally healthy discipleship culture that actually has the power to change the world.
