What’s this about knowing God in five days? Does it take just that long—no more, no less? Author Morris Venden is emphasizing not so much the time element as the possibility, not of knowing about God only but also of knowing Him, of having a personal and positive relationship with Him. And he outlines that possibility in five stages or steps. When you understand the how, you can learn to know God, too, as you may never have before. For many years the pastor of various college churches, Morris Venden had the experience of dealing with inquiring minds. As an author of several books and a speaker in wide demand, he honed his ability to articulate and illustrate. Your benefit from his introduction to God might be . . . eternal.

A theme that threads its way throughout this book is the law of love and freedom. Simply put, "There is no love without freedom." God, therefore, is not only God of love but God of freedom. He gave everything through Jesus to restore our freedom. This helps us make sense of our experiences of suffering and death Don Straub, a counselor who has also been a teacher and pastor, shares his life experiences in his work in Canada and Africa, being married three times, losing two wives to death, and being a father. He also shares his analysis of Scripture and scientific research to help readers move closer to God, enjoy spiritual growth, manage emotions, and cultivate healthy relationships. The "bridges to freedom" he highlights include authenticity, grace, healthy self-love, healthy self-talk, self-awareness, gratitude, assertiveness, and forgiveness. Move closer to the Lord, get past your mistakes, and learn life lessons with the essential bridges described in this book.Written by: Don Straub

Once again, Morris Venden has compiled an anthology of invaluable information-this time on the subject of conversion-to help us in our Christian walk. According to Venden, conversion is the most neglected, and most important, topic in the Christian church. This book starts with the necessity of conversion and covers the work of the Holy Spirit, the born again experience, the effect of sin, the steps to conversion, the importance of beholding Jesus, and much more. Included in the book are many quotes from Ellen G. White on conversion, along with the ever-popular illustrations and parables that Venden is famous for.

One Lie Breeds Another That first lie Satan told in Eden--the one that said God was actually a selfish liar--has spawned a multitude of untruths about who God is and what His feelings toward us really are. The human perception of God has been askew ever since, and we've struggled to relate to this God we don't really (want to) know. Naturally, since our view of God is distorted, our attitudes and behavior are rebellious--perceptions change our thoughts, thoughts influence our feelings, and feelings determine attitudes and behavior. Herb Montgomery goes straight to the root of the problem and sweeps aside the misperceptions of God and His character that cause us to spurn the only one who truly loves us. Some of Christianity's long-held, though biblically unfounded, views are confronted--God's true attitude toward pain and suffering, where guilt comes from, and what His forgiveness accomplishes. And the question that plagues every human heart is irrevocably resolved: If God really loves us, why does He allow horrible things to happen? Written by: Herb Montgomery
