Additional Info
This book is designed for those who are in “churches that abuse,” to enable them to see what is going on in their lives and thus to free themselves from such situations. It is a very practical book, which outlines, in specific terms, the tactics that cult-type manipulators use to get people into their control. Each of the seventeen chapters ends with a checklist of statements that the reader can check to see if the things that are happening in his or her religious group point to an unhealthy situation. Nearly every week the author receives phone calls or letters from people, thanking her for writing the book and for helping to straighten out their thinking so that they did not get caught up into a cult-type group. This is a practical, down-to-earth book geared to help people escape from the clutches of churches that abuse and manipulate.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak
$26.99Add to cartGod always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
