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

Gift Of Thorns
$26.99Today’s follower of Jesus exists at a moment in history when our desires, longings, and wants are being weaponized against us by cultural, spiritual, and relational forces. “Follow your heart” and “You do you” has become our moment’s mantras. The result, for too many, is feeling torn asunder by the raging desires within. What do we do with our desire? What about our unwanted desires? And how do we cultivate desires which bring life and freedom and lead to Christ? The Gift of Thorns, by A. J. Swoboda, addresses these questions and more.
The path forward is anything but easy. It is assumed by too many in the Christian community that desire is in and of itself bad or dangerous and must be crucified for simply existing. Desire is demonic for some. But, for many others–particularly in the secular West–desire must be followed through and through. This side deifies desire. But these two options sidestep the joy in the great challenge of finding God in our desire. There exists an ancient and sacred way that is forged around the life, wisdom, and power of Jesus and his Spirit. In short, what makes a follower of Christ is not whether or not we have desires. Rather, it is what we do with the desires we have.
Near the end of the story of humanity’s rebellion, the theme of “thorns” is introduced. As readers will discover, the thematic repetition of “thorns” pops up over and over throughout the Bible. What are the thorns for? They will be, in the words of God, “for you” (Gen. 3:18). The premise of this book is that a world where we do not get all that we want is, well, the greatest gift ever.
