Grown-Up Faith
Author: Kevin Myers
Publisher: HarperChristian + ORM
ISBN: 1400208467
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Why isn't life everything we expected it to be? And why doesn't our faith resolve our frustrations and problems? Kevin Myers, the founding pastor of 12Stone Church, a congregation of more than 30,000 active attenders near Atlanta, believes the reason we don't experience a transformed life is that we fail to grow up spiritually. We focus on developing physically, intellectually, emotionally, and financially, yet our faith remains immature and anemic. In this powerful new book, Myers offers a deep yet simple roadmap to a grown-up faith through understanding the whole context of the Bible, developing spiritual intimacy with God, and gratefully embracing holy obedience. As you understand the Bible and the big picture of God's story with humanity, you begin to find answers to life's most compelling questions. As you begin to understand God more, your longing and ability to experience spiritual intimacy with him increases, as does your desire to obey what God asks of you and your ability to follow through. This is the way to the bigger life, a life even better than you expected--or even dreamed possible.

Growing Toward Spiritual Maturity
Author: Gary C. Newton
Publisher: Crossway Bibles
ISBN: 9781581345711
Category : Sanctification
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
One of the first lessons to learn as a growing Christian is how to serve. In contrast to a "me-centered" culture, Christians should not merely satisfy themselves but instead seek to emulate Jesus. Growing Toward Spiritual Maturity advocates a strategy for growing toward Christlikeness based on the actual ways that people develop. By understanding the dynamics of spiritual growth, readers are more aware of how God uses the specific circumstances of life to draw people closer to himself. Text and discussion questions help believers mature as Christians by identifying and understanding spiritual disciplines, such as Bible study, prayer, a godly lifestyle, witnessing, and using spiritual gifts. This title is one in a series being published by Crossway Books in cooperation with Evangelical Training Association. ETA provides Christian education resources for individuals, leaders and teachers, churches, Bible institutes, and other adult educational settings. With short chapters and thought-provoking questions, this book is useful for both personal study and group learning. Book jacket.

Spiritual Formation as if the Church Mattered
Author: James C. Wilhoit
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493435167
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Most books on spiritual formation focus on the individual. But spiritual formation is at the heart of the church's whole purpose for existence. It must be a central task for the church to carry out Christ's mission in the world. This book offers an introduction to spiritual formation set squarely in the local church. The first edition has been well received and widely used as a textbook. The second edition has been updated throughout, incorporates findings from positive psychology, and reflects an Augustinian formation perspective. Foreword by Dallas Willard.

A Way with Words
Author: Daniel Darling
Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1535995378
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
Social media was made to bring us together. But few things have driven us further apart. Sadly, many Christians are fueling online incivility. Others, exhausted by perpetual outrage and shame-filled from constant comparison, are leaving social media altogether. So, how should Christians behave in this digital age? Is there a better way? Daniel Darling believes we need an approach that applies biblical wisdom to our engagement with social media, an approach that neither retreats from modern technology nor ignores the harmful ways in which Christians often engage publicly. In short, he believes that we can and should use our online conversations for good.

Habits of Grace
Author: David Mathis
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433550504
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
The Christian life is built on three seemingly unremarkable practices: reading the Bible, prayer, and fellowship with other believers. However, according to David Mathis, such “habits of grace” are the God-designed channels through which his glorious grace flows—making them life-giving practices for all Christians. Whether it’s hearing God’s voice (the Word), having his ear (prayer), or participating in his body (fellowship), such spiritual rhythms of the Christian life have the power to awaken our souls to God’s glory and stir our hearts for lifelong service in his name. What’s more, these seemingly simple practices grant us access to a host of spiritual blessings that we can only begin to imagine this side of eternity—and the incredible joy that such blessings bring to God’s children today.

Growing Up Spiritually
Author: George Mfula
Publisher: Rise & Walk Faith Library
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 115
Book Description
Growing Up Spiritually is worth reading! It will bring you into realms of unprecedented fellowship with God and His Spirit. Whether in Africa, Australia, Asia, South America, Europe, North America or the USA, no Christian can outgrow the need for spiritual growth. If you and I think spiritual growth is only for those who just got born again yesterday, then we have missed it entirely. As long as God remains on the throne, we can’t outgrow Him in every way. Hence, the need for us to thirst and hunger for Him and to grow more and more in Christ Jesus. Just because you are a prophet, pastor, teacher, apostle, or founder of some ministry, that does not exempt you from spiritual growth. However, if you think you have arrived at your spirituality and you don’t need to grow up, just know you are standing on dangerous ground. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 10:12, “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.” Each time you think you know it all and you don’t need to grow up anymore, just know that is pride at work. Then, we already know that proud people never last long in the race of life. Get this book! You will scale greater heights of wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and spiritual growth in Christ Jesus!
