Reconstructing Dad: How Jesus Unveils the Father and Ends the Orphan Spirit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why you keep striving, hiding, and blaming, and how Jesus shows you a Father who has always adored you. Why do so many of us feel like we are on our own, no matter how much we believe? Chuck Ammons of Overflow Church in Tampa Bay shares how losing his father at age six shaped the way he saw God, and how one encounter in a hotel room in Naples, Florida changed everything.

Why Rushing to Serve Others Is the Real Path to Greatness (opens the original)
Read excerpt
