To Shift a Nation

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Repeatedly, I found myself nodding my head in agreement asTo Shift author, Craig Docksteader set out sound biblical principles for shifting Canada back to this nation’s Christian roots.

Many Christians are disappointed and angered as they see the country drift away from the moral and spiritual foundation that was established by earlier generations. Legitimately they ask, “How can we bring our nation back to God?” Docksteader systematically sets out the answer to that question.

In short, we need to do the hard work of implementing incremental organic change. This is change that moves from the bottom up transforming society, rather than being imposed from the top down by government authority. This progressive incremental change is how the Kingdom of God is intended to operate among us.

The author provides ample examples of how this change comes about in history and through current life situations. He also points out the errors that many believers are making by trying to impose their will on a post-Christian society.

Finally, I believe, this book is a blueprint for change and revival in Canada, but the truths outlined in this book apply universally. Every Christian should read it.

Rediscovering Jesus’ Blueprint for Renewal

Is positive change, revival, and renewal possible today in the church, and more broadly in society and the world? This is a valid question in our culture where many are in despair and have lost hope. Many churches are in decline, public morality is in decline, and many have abandoned the Christian faith. Can this trendline be reversed?

In their book The Elisha Code & the Coming Revival David Kitz and Dr. Ed Hird tackle these issues head-on, and they do so, from a thoroughly biblical perspective.

In this interview with Logan Crawford, David Kitz sketches out some key truths about revival that have been lost and now uncovered through an examination of two prophetic dynamic duos, Elijah and Elisha from the Old Testament, and John the Baptist and Jesus from the New Testament.

Are you ready for renewal and a new perspective?

Holiness Here by Karen Stiller

A Book Review

Holiness. As followers of Jesus, we are called to be holy. But are we? The Scriptures call us God’s chosen and holy people (1 Peter 2:9), but how do we live out that truth? Is it even possible?

Karen Stiller explores our call to holiness in a soul-exposing, heart-touching way that leaves us hungering for more. There is no pretension here. Living holy is hard. Failures are frequent, and grace, blended with forgiveness is essential as we walk and stumble forward. The author makes this perfectly clear as we join her on her intimate journey.197885931

To be authentic, holiness must permeate every area of our life. So, chapter by chapter, the author builds a case for holiness with chapters on subjects such as the physical body, money, humility, beauty, remembering, and the church.

I have read other books on the topic of holiness. They were good books, but this one stands above them all. This is due to the very personal way in which the author approaches her topic. This is not an academic exercise. We see into her life and see our own struggles and momentary triumphs reflected there.

I highly recommend Holiness Here by Karen Stiller.
Paperback, 192 pages.

book review, books, David Kitz, Holy Week

Are you looking for a can’t-put-it-down summer read?

Look no further.

With 4.8 on Amazon’s 5 star  rating scale The Soldier Who Killed a King will not disappoint.4485 SHARABLE-1

Here is the most recent review:

Rarely have I been so captivated by a book! Well researched and highly credible. It should be made into a movie. By coincidence, I started reading it on Palm Sunday, and as the week progressed, each day of Holy Week coincided with the day in the book. I will read it again and again during Holy Week in years to come and will highly recommend it to friends.   — Eugene Aucoin

Better yet, the paperback edition of The Soldier Who Killed a King  is now available at 64% off on the American Amazon website.

Psalms Alive!

How do you connect with God? For three thousand years, God has been connecting with humankind through the prophetic prayer, praise and poetry of the biblical Psalms. Come follow David, the shepherd king, the man after Gods own heart, as we begin a journey to intimacy with God. Discover for yourself what a soul-bonding relationship with God looks like.

As never before, let the psalms come alive for you.

“David Kitz paints pictures with words, taking lessons from Scripture and nature to offer us a three-dimensional, multi-sensory relationship with God.” — Robert L. Briggs, Executive Vice President, American Bible Society

Psalm’s Alive! was inspired by years of the author performing dramatic readings of the Psalms. David still performs Psalms Alive! today.

David also writes weekly blog posts on the Psalms at davidkitz.wordpress.com

On Wednesday of this week, I signed a contract for the publication of 365 Days through the Psalms. The publisher is Elk Lake Publishing, a Plymouth, MA, royalty paying publisher. The book will be available for the 2020 Christmas market. Rejoice with me! This is an answer to prayer.

David Kitz — signing the contract

For the next few months I will be busy finalizing the manuscript and working with an editor to get it ready for publication.

Yes, these are the same Psalms devotionals that are posted daily on my WordPress site and on my Facebook page. Now they will be available all together in book form.

This will be my second book on the Psalms. I guess it’s fair to say I love the Psalms. Psalms Alive! was published in 2009, so after ten years it seems right to have another book on the theme of the Psalms.

By the way Psalms Alive! has been one of my top selling books, and it’s still available. The format is quite different than my daily devotional posts since it’s a more in depth, self-guided study of thirteen selected Psalms.
