"Have this mind among yourselves..." Everyone needs examples. We all need mentors we admire and after whom we can pattern our lives. Without them, we will not mature. Philippians is a letter full of good examples. Paul, Epaphroditus, and Timothy are all portrayed as exemplars. But none is more important than Jesus himself. In Self-Giving Love, Dean Flemming shows how Jesus and the story of his self-emptying love are the very heart of Philippians. This ultimate example provides a lens for clearly seeing the rest of the letter. By emulating Jesus' radical love, we will become mature, foster unity, and find joy. Self-Giving Love presents the message and themes of Philippians in a concise and accessible guide, with probing questions for reflection and discussion.

We hear it said and preached constantly to live like Jesus, to be like Jesus. We are challenged to live for Jesus and not be conformed to the ways of the world. But, what does it really mean to live in such a way? What does it mean to serve God through Jesus Christ? If you think it is moral living only, you'd be wrong. If you think it's doing good deeds alone, you'd be wrong. Maybe you truly do not know what it means to live like Jesus, to be like Jesus. RETURN TO JESUS: A Vision of Self-Giving Love, will teach you to live as Christ lived and to be like Christ! It is a call to renewal for the Christian church and to enhance your daily walk in Christ. It will take you on a journey through the scripture and give you the tools to live in the -self-giving love- which Jesus lived and taught. Unlike many other books on love, RETURN TO JESUS sets forth a scripture foundation and basis for following Jesus in living a life of -agape- or -self-giving- love-. It also chronicles the author's journey to this realization of truth that was there in scripture all along. The reader will come to see that love is not just a word to be bandied about, but is -agape-. This is the -self-giving love- which Jesus not only lived and taught, but is the basis for all God's laws and messages from scripture. There will be renewed vision as you begin to understand the purpose that our Heavenly Father desired for your life from the beginning. Thus, you will become a more effective witness for Jesus as you learn to live your life as he did. RETURN TO JESUS will teach you the fullness of the -agape- message and will forever change your view of what it means to be a Christian. For some, it will be an affirmation of something that has been stirring in their Spirit, which they have not been able to fully understand or put into words. For others, it will be a completely different understanding of walking daily in Christ. For everyone who receives and begins to live out this message, their life in Christ will never be the same. Below is an excerpt from the book that will give you an idea of the message which lies within.

God seeks us and summons us in many and varied ways. One of the most endearing contributions of the Second Vatican Council was its clear reminder that we are all called by God to holiness. But his call doesn't (usually) come as a loud voice in the skies; we don't see visions in the night or hear voices in the tabernacle. Instead, God calls us through the people, events, and turning points in our daily lives. In The Art of Self-Giving Love, Bill Huebsch helps us learn how to hear that call to holiness, and also how to respond to it. The response we are called to make is always the same: it is to die to ourselves, to practice self-giving love, to join ourselves with the paschal mystery of Christ and shed our very selves. This self-giving love is the pathway to holiness; Huebsch helps us to see it with clarity and embrace it as a lifestyle.

What can the Bible teach us about unconditional, everlasting, life-changing love? Join #1 New York Times bestselling author Dr. Les Parrott as he shows us that we all deserve Love Like That. In this authentic, practical book, Dr. Parrott provides a simple plan to improve all of your relationships--with spouses, family, friends, coworkers, and even strangers. Dr. Parrott takes proven findings from psychology and sociology and blends them with biblical teaching to reveal five transformative ways of relating to people demonstrated by Jesus himself. In Love Like That, Dr. Parrott gives you the tools you need to love like Jesus, because when you do: you become less detached and more mindful you become less exclusive and more approachable you become less judgmental and more grace-full you become less fearful and more bold you become less self-absorbed and more self-giving Dr. Parrott teaches us that loving like Jesus can be a daily reality for anyone who chooses it. Why? Because this love isn't elusive. It isn't pie-in-the-sky. It isn't out of reach or relegated to untouchable saints. It's real. Jesus gives us practical examples of how to love in extraordinary ways. And you're likely closer to it than you know. Praise for Love Like That: "From the first vulnerable sentence, this heart-felt message from Dr. Parrott will compel you to not only be a better person, it will show you exactly how you can do just that." --Dave Ramsey, #1 bestselling author and radio host "Refreshingly honest and incredibly practical.

And he'll show you the way, step-by-step, to realizing the kinds of relationships we all long for." --Lee Strobel, New York Times bestselling author of The Case for Christ

In Waiting on the Beloved: The Eucharist as Self-Giving Love, celebrated author and teacher, Joyce Ann Zimmerman, cpps, animates readers to “contemplate God’s unfailing and abiding love” (from the preface). Through thought-provoking reflections, readers are drawn into quiet communion with the Beloved, where we become aware that our waiting “is a matter of waiting on ourselves to become ever more deeply aware, responsive, self-emptying, self-giving, seeking, yearning, and expecting” (preface). The first three chapters survey God’s unfathomable love for us, and the last three chapters shift to us and what we do with this gift of divine love. While words are inadequate to express God’s love for us and our love for God, the Eucharist is at the heart of Divine love and is the ultimate expression of God’s self-giving love. This book is for anyone seeking to seriously encounter the Beloved in prayer and reflection, and anyone who desires to come to a deeper union with Christ in the Eucharist.

Relationships are riddled with challenges. Our own selfishness sabotages our most noble efforts to love others. Our tendency towards rigid legalism inhibits our ability to receive and extend grace. When we've been deeply hurt by others, forgiveness feels like the hardest thing in the world. Compassion is an afterthought when human beings are reduced to political issues and talking points. Yet, Jesus modeled a radical way of self-giving love that was expressed through acts of scandalous grace, irrational forgiveness, and fierce compassion. And, He calls us to embrace this way of self-giving love. Acts of Defiance explores what it looks like for the heart to be transformed so that it goes against its natural, self-centered way of life. Anthony is a husband, dad, and pastor. He graduated from Wesley Seminary at Indiana Wesleyan University in December 2017 with a Masters of Divinity. Anthony serves as the Lead Pastor at LifePoint Church in Goshen, Indiana and co-hosts the podcast Theologizing Life. He enjoys sharing life with his wife, Emily, as they navigate the beautiful messiness of parenting their two kids. Together they are discovering how to follow Jesus and his radical way of self-giving love.

Drawing on their experience helping couples prepare for marriage, Richard and Mei-Ling White offer this meditation on marriage preparation in the Bible, and what we can learn from the examples of Sarah and Tobias, Jacob and Rachel, and many others! In a world where nearly all professions take years of training before being able to practice in one’s chosen field, what is arguably the most important “profession” – i.e. marriage – is too-often entered into with little to no training or preparation. They discuss the importance of the time before marriage to learn and practice self-giving love, so that when a marriage begins the couple has an understanding of what it means to give themselves fully to each other!

Jesus’ teaching has changed the world. Yet his sayings can often seem cryptic and hard to understand. In Love Is His Meaning, Keith Ward explores the various figures of speech and images that Jesus used, and finds they are all ways of expressing and evoking the self-giving love of God, manifested supremely in Jesus’ life. They communicate spiritual truths, often not in a literal but in a poetic way. They encourage us to take our own moral decisions with sensitivity and care for others. They show that God’s love will never abandon anyone, and that it extends to everyone in the world without exception. And they promise a fulfilment of our hopes for a just and peaceable world that surpasses anything we might describe or imagine. Putting aside literalist, authoritarian, legalistic, judgemental and divisive presentations of Jesus’ teachings, the author shows that what remains is the gospel of a divine love – a love stronger than death, and the only power that can and will redeem our disordered world.
