Book Description
In 1658 the famous English preacher Richard Baxter wrote a book entitled A Call to the Unconverted, regarded by many as the greatest book on Christian conversion that has ever been written. It was translated into several languages and was thought to have been the means of bringing thousands of people to a living faith in Christ. Based on Baxters work, Invitation to Live has the same serious, earnest and urgent message. It pleads with the reader to be ruthlessly honest in examining his spiritual condition, tells him of Gods amazing love, and urges him to accept Gods invitation to receive the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. It also leaves him in no doubt about the alternative.

The Perfect You

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
Should Your Heart Be Tested or Trusted? Many believers are convinced they have a “deceitful” and “wicked” heart that is not to be trusted. Theirs is a faith of duty and obligation—only a faint imitation of the full and abundant life Jesus promised. This provocative book invites you to a radically different approach, an inspiring move from head to heart that affects every aspect of your life: how you handle conflict, how you communicate with and love others, and how you view yourself and God. There’s a place of purity within you where Jesus lives. God calls you to live from this perfect place—not merely from your head, but from your heart. Knowing the perfect you means no more waiting for closeness with God. Knowing the perfect you brings a freedom in Jesus that you’ve never experienced before. “In this captivating book, Andrew Farley and Tim Chalas invite you to celebrate God’s perfect (and accurate!) view of you.” —BART MILLARD, singer/songwriter for MercyMe

Made For More
Author: Hannah Anderson
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802487645
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Who are you, really? In an uncertain world, we crave the security of knowing exactly who we are and where we belong. But too often as women, we try to find this safety in our roles and relationships, our professional accomplishments, or our picture-perfect homes. And as we do, our souls shrink smaller and smaller. It's because these things aren't made to hold us. In Made for More, Hannah Anderson invites you to re-imagine yourself, not simply as a set of roles and categories, but as a person destined to live in the fullness of God Himself. Starting with our first identity as image bearers, Hannah shows how Jesus Christ makes us people who can reflect His nature through our unique callings. She also explores how these deeper truths affect the practical realities that we face as women—how does being an image bearer shape our pursuit of education, our work, and even our desire for holistic lives? Because you are made in God’s image, you will only ever know yourself—only ever be yourself—as you find your identity in Him. Find it now.
