Do your kids need a little help learning to compete kindly? How to win and lose well? From New York Times best-selling author and Proverbs 31 Ministries founder Lysa TerKeurst comes a lively picture book about sportsmanship. Lulu and Max have planned an exciting field day for their animal friends, and the winner will be the leader of the forest. But sore losers, bragging winners, and bad attitudes are taking the fun straight out of the contests! Just when the day seems ruined, someone steps in and turns things around. Finally, Lulu and Max must decide who will be leader of the forest. Their choice is a big surprise, but it feels just right. Through Lulu’s love for her animal friends—no matter what—children will discover that their value comes from who they are, not how they perform. This gentle and playful story will help kids develop the skills they need to win at the most important parts of life: friendship and forgiveness.

*I''ll Start Again Monday is a newly revised and condensed version of Lysa''s bestseller Made to Crave.* Have healthy eating plans left you feeling defeated? Based on her bestseller Made to Crave, Lysa TerKeurst offers a new perspective to all those stuck in the cycle of losing weight and then gaining it back, equipping you with the deeper spiritual and emotional motivation you need to make lasting changes. So often we characterize our food cravings as bad, especially when dieting has made us feel even more disappointed and discouraged. But the reality is we were made to crave. We just need to realize God created us to crave more of Him instead of misplacing that craving by overindulging in physical pleasures and unhealthy choices that will never truly satisfy. In the midst of her own personal struggle with this, New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst invites us to embrace a new outlook that leads to enduring change. In this newly revised and condensed version of Made to Crave, Lysa encourages you to: Break the cycle of "I''ll start again Monday" and start taking steps toward consistency that lasts Stop agonizing over numbers on the scale and make peace with your body Replace rationalizations that lead to failure with wisdom that leads to victory Reach your healthy goals and grow closer to God through the process This is not a "how-to" book. This is not the latest and greatest dieting plan. This is the necessary resource to use alongside whatever healthy lifestyle plan you choose that will help you find your "want to" and lead to a spiritual satisfaction that goes far beyond the physical.

*El lunes empiezo de nuevo es una nueva versión revisada y condensada del best seller de Lysa Fui hecha para desear.* ¿Los planes alimenticios saludables te han hecho sentir derrotada?

A menudo caracterizamos nuestros antojos de comida como malos o que provocan culpa. Pero el antojo no es algo malo. La realidad es que fuimos hechos para desear. Solo tenemos que darnos cuenta de que Dios nos creó para desear más de Él, en lugar de perder ese deseo por complacernos en placeres físicos y alimentos poco saludables que siempre decepcionarán. En medio de su lucha personal con esto, la autora best seller del New York Times, Lysa TerKerust, nos invita a encontrar el eslabón perdido entre el deseo de una mujer de estar sana y el empoderamiento espiritual necesario para que esto suceda. En este libro recientemente revisado y condensado, Lysa nos muestra cómo: romper el ciclo de «El lunes empiezo de nuevo» y sentirte bien contigo hoy; dejar de agonizar por los números en la báscula y hacer las paces con tu cuerpo; reemplazar las racionalizaciones que conducen al fracaso por la sabiduría que conduce a la victoria; y alcanzar tus metas saludables y acercarte más a Dios en el proceso. Este no es un libro de «instrucciones». Tampoco es el último y mejor plan de dieta. Es el recurso necesario a utilizar junto con cualquier plan de estilo de vida saludable que elijas, que te ayudará a encontrar tu «deseo» y te llevará a una satisfacción espiritual que va mucho más allá de lo físico.

So often we characterize our food cravings as bad or guilt-inducing. But craving isn''t a bad thing. The reality is we were made to crave. We just need to realize God created us to crave more of Him instead of misplacing that craving by overindulging in physical pleasures and unhealthy food that will always disappoint. In the midst of her own personal struggle with this, New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst invites us to find the missing link between a woman''s desire to be healthy and the spiritual empowerment necessary to make that happen. In this newly revised and condensed book, Lysa shows us how to break the cycle of "I''ll start again Monday" and feel good about yourself today; stop agonizing over numbers on the scale and make peace with your body; replace rationalizations that lead to failure with wisdom that leads to victory; and reach your healthy goals and grow closer to God through the process.

GOD WANTS US TO LIVE LOVED WHEN WE FEEL LEFT OUT, LONELY, AND LESS THAN. In this six-session video Bible study, Lysa TerKeurst digs deep into God''s Word to help you explore the roots of rejection, the way other relationships get tainted because of a past rejection, and the truth about what it looks like to live loved. With biblical depth, gut-honest vulnerability, and refreshing wit, Lysa will take you on a visual journey in the Holy Land to some of the places where people of the Bible such as Hannah, David, and even Jesus lived and walked. Lysa will help you and your group to enter a place of healing and new perspective, as well as a time for you to go to new places with Jesus and experience him like never before. Uninvited reminds us we are destined for a love that can never be diminished, tarnished, shaken, or taken--a love that does not reject or uninvite. Session Titles: Living Loved (25:30) Empty or Full?
