Alex Early – författare

Part cookbook, part theology, Among the Pots and Pans celebrates the connection between food and faith in the Bible and explores how cooking can be used not only to nourish our bodies but also to feed our souls and build community.   As God’s plan for redemption exquisitely unfolds throughout the Bible, you’ll notice that food plays in important role in the scriptural narrative. From Eden to Egypt to Jesus’s many meals with his followers, and ultimately to the wedding feast that awaits all believers, food has always been a central part of God’s story. Pastor and cooking enthusiast Alex Early invites you to experience God anew as you cook memorable meals for friends, family, and fellow seekers. This unique cookbook contains over fifty recipes from Alex along with rich, spiritual insights on how food can help you extend Christ’s love to others and live in greater gratitude and wholeness.   Join Alex for delicious meals and plenty of food for thought on the holy work in the kitchen.

What Life as a Christian Really Looks Like New believers need to know what to expect. While many books cover the nuts and bolts of new faith--how to read the Bible, how to pray, how to find a church--in this book, Alex Early focuses on issues of the heart. What are Christians supposed to feel? What happens when they sin? What does God want from them? Designed to challenge and reassure, this book gives a realistic depiction of the Christian life, and includes such topics as how to rest in God's love, what forgiveness looks like when you blow it, what it means to find your identity in Christ, and how to pray with honesty and transparency.God isn't surprised when we struggle, and although being in a relationship with God is amazing, he never promised that this life would be easy. He can handle "real" people, and he pours out his reckless love regardless of what we do or think on any given day. We all need to be reminded of this, but especially those new to the faith.This book is ideal for new believers, but seasoned Christians should also have copies on hand to give away. Includes end-of-chapter questions and a "Christianese to English" glossary.

Assurance of God''s Personal Love for UsThe startling truth about the love of God has lost its potency. It is not a passionless, theological idea. It is a real love that feels and even suffers. Whether you grew up in a Christian home and have forgotten this essential truth, or you never knew it in the first place, we all need to be reminded--and assured--that God''s love is real and personal. The Reckless Love of God is about pulling readers in close and asking if they have really considered what it means to say, "Jesus loves you."Nothing changes lives and grows the church faster, more effectively, and more thoroughly than being captivated by this reality. But the love of Jesus is not just a means to another end. Receiving the love of Jesus is the end itself.Includes end-of-chapter questions for individual or group use.
