Book Description
In the ancient disciple-rabbi relationship, the disciple would follow the rabbi so closely that he would be covered in the dust kicked up from his rabbi's feet. Thousands of years later, though we walk on roads of pavement and not dust, we are still called to be disciples—to follow our Rabbi, Jesus Christ, so closely that we are covered with his life, changed, and made new. Into His Likeness provides an approachable but in-depth exploration of how to live as a disciple and experience the transformation Jesus wants to work in our lives. We might desire to live more like Christ, but we know we fall short. This book simply helps us follow those initial promptings of the Holy Spirit, so that we may more intentionally encounter Jesus anew each day and be more disposed to his grace changing us ever more into his likeness.

The Discipline of Grace
Author: Jerry Bridges
Publisher: NavPress
ISBN: 1631468723
Category : Conduct of life
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
God's Role and Our Role in the Pursuit of Holiness You are never beyond the reach of God's grace. Neither are you ever beyond the need of God's grace. Without grace we'd never come to Christ. But being a Christian is more than just coming to Christ, it's about growing and becoming more like Jesus. This pursuit of holiness is hard work, and as we enter into this discipline, we sometimes lose sight of grace. Jerry Bridges helps us steer clear of this disastrous distraction, offering a clear and thorough explanation of the gospel and what it means to the believer. Explore how the same grace that brings us to Christ also grows us in Christ. Includes full study guide (which was previously sold as a stand-alone discussion guide, ISBN 9781576839904).

Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ (Revised Edition)
Author: John Piper
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433517310
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
Who is Jesus Christ? You've never met him in person, and you don't know anyone who has. But there is a way to know who he is. How? Jesus Christ-the divine Person revealed in the Bible-has a unique excellence and a spiritual beauty that speaks directly to our souls and says, "Yes, this is truth." It's like seeing the sun and knowing that it is light, or tasting honey and knowing that it is sweet. The depth and complexity of Jesus shatter our simple mental frameworks. He baffled proud scribes with his wisdom but was understood and loved by children. He calmed a raging storm with a word but would not get himself down from the cross. Look at the Jesus of the Bible. Keep your eyes open, and fill them with the portrait of Jesus in God's Word. Jesus said, "If anyone's will is to do God's will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority." Ask God for the grace to do his will, and you will see the truth of his Son. John Piper has written this book in the hope that all will see Jesus for who he really is and will come to enjoy him above all else.

Languages : en
Pages : 63
Book Description
Are you a Believer tired of attending church week after week? Do you feel that how you entered Sunday morning service is the same way you left, hopeless and with an empty smile? Tired of feeling like the church has become more of a fashion show rather than a soul-changing agency? You get in your car, look in the mirror and question yourself as if you have missed the mark some kind of way because you did not “feel” the spirit as everyone else. Believe me, it is not you. Your heart is craving for something not offered and you are crying out for a place to meet God. To feel His presence. To know He is with you every step of the way knowing your heart and desires. You, my sister and brother, are looking for an internal change, a transformation. You have just entered a place that God has been leading you all the time. You are experiencing the hunger and thirst our Father put in you to draw you close to His presence. You are in the right mind for what God, the Father, wants to do with you. You can walk away from everything in your world because of the hunger and frustration of current things to put your broken life in His hands as the clay to the potter and say mold me into whatever you want me to be. You, my dear friend, are ready and in need to be Transformed from My Image to His Image. You have picked up a life-changing book. Through this book, you will understand the process of transformation to live a deeply satisfying life our Father has long to give you. Look no further, your transformed life lies within the content of this book.
