About this listen
Surgery to remove a brain tumor resulted in a change to Robin's facial features, causing her to take a deep look into the mirror of God's Word to find the answers to questions many of us have asked:
"Why did God create me as He did when He is certainly capable of creating so much beauty?"
"If beauty brings honor and glory to God, how can I possibly do so in my current physical condition?"
"Is it possible for me to be content with my appearance?"
"Will I ever be able to focus on others without thinking about how I look?"
"How important is physical beauty to God, anyway?"
These are just some of the questions Robin seeks to answer in this six-week Bible study. The lessons contained herein do not focus on the subject of "inner beauty", although that is important to God. Instead, they are designed to help us transform our thinking by giving us God's viewpoint on this all-too-often misunderstood subject of physical beauty.
The following testimony is shared from the author's heart:
“I love the promise given in Ephesians 3:20: ‘Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.’ There are times in life when we have become so shaken in our faith because of our circumstances, but our Heavenly Father steps in and does what only He can do in the human heart. I would not have described myself as a beautiful woman prior to my surgery, but afterward, I would have given anything to have my former appearance back. Then God gave me something even greater through the study of His Word. He gave me a new perspective on this topic of physical beauty, and it has been very freeing. It is my heart’s desire to share these biblical principles with others, so they, too, may experience the peace and contentment that comes when God does something exceeding abundantly above all, that we ask or think, according to the power that worth in us!”

The first Christians "turned the world upside down" (Acts 17:6) shaking the gates of hell even in the face of severe persecution. The result: People all around "were filled with wonder and amazement" (Acts 3:10).What can give Christians today the same impact? God's Holy Spirit is ready to answer that for us in an awesome way, as Henry Blackaby and his son Mel Blackaby make clear in Experiencing the Spirit.

If it's good, it must be God. Right? These days the terms good and God seem synonymous. We believe that what's generally accepted as good must be in line with God's will. Generosity, humility, justice - good. Selfishness, arrogance, cruelty - evil. The distinction seems pretty straightforward. But is that all there is to it? This audiobook will do more than ask you to change your behavior. It will empower you to engage with God on a level that will change every aspect of your life.

Just like Superman, followers of Christ have the supernatural ability to conquer the challenges we face. But the problem for both Superman and us is there's a kryptonite that steals our strength. Of course, both Superman and kryptonite are fictional. But spiritual kryptonite is not. This book offers answers to why so many people - and the churches they attend - are unable to experience the divine strength that was evident among the first-century Christians. In Killing Kryptonite, John Bevere reveals what this kryptonite is and how to break free from its bondage.
