In Reading the Bible Supernaturally, best-selling author John Piper teaches us how to read the Bible in light of its divine author. In doing so, he highlights the Bible's unique ability to reveal God to humanity in a way that informs our minds, transforms our hearts, and ignites our love. With insights into the biblical text drawn from decades of experience studying, preaching, and teaching Scripture, Piper helps us experience the transformative power of God's Word—a power that extends beyond the mere words on the page. Ultimately, Piper shows us that in the seemingly ordinary act of reading the Bible, something supernatural happens: we encounter the living God.




Gospelbound


Book Description

A profound exploration of how to hold on to hope when our unchanging faith collides with a changing culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders. “Offers neither spin control nor image maintenance for the evangelical tribe, but genuine hope.”—Russell Moore, president of ERLC As the pressures of health warnings, economic turmoil, and partisan politics continue to rise, the influence of gospel-focused Christians seems to be waning.

In Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra counter these growing fears with a robust message of resolute hope for anyone hungry for good news. Join them in exploring profound stories of Christians who are quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus—from the wild world of digital media to the stories of ancient saints and unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of justice and mercy.

Sacred Mundane


Book Description

What if the key to changing your life--and yourself--is already in your hand? So many women struggle with what to do with their daily lives. They feel trapped in everyday drudgery and disappointment, in dull domestic duties, and in mundane jobs they despise. Where is the abundant, purposeful life they were promised? Kari Patterson shows readers the truth: in each unremarkable life lies an opportunity to see, know, love, and be utterly transformed by a God who meets everyone right where they are. Instead of stepping away from real life to find God, Patterson equips women with a six-step practice to move further in and meet Him in the humdrum moments of everyday existence. And when a woman's inner being is truly changed by the sacred, everything in her world changes too--right down to tackling the dirty dishes. Through entertaining narrative, candid real-life stories, Bible study, and practical instruction, Sacred Mundane guides individuals or small groups to discover the beautiful sacredness in the lives they already lead. Women who long to grow in God and make a real difference in the world--no matter how small--will reach eagerly for this book and the radical transformation it offers. "Our daily routine, with its mundane tasks and mindless repetition, is ultimately an offering of worship to God. What a great truth from a great God!" --Ann Byle, author of The Making of a Christian Bestseller and coauthor of Devotions for the Soul Surfer




Life Has Ups and Life Has Dips


Book Description

Did you ever find yourself in a blind corner in life where you felt stuck and didn't know which direction to take? Have you ever struggled with what your purpose in life might be? Did you know that enthusiasm has it's root "in God?" Have you ever considered your gifts and talents to be God's investments so you can be content and successful with your career path? Is it possible that God could bring hurt and betrayal into our lives in order to mold us into what He wants us to be? Did you know that for the sovereignty of God to work in our life, we must give Him that rightful place? Addressing these questions, Rene Luis Medina illustrates the importance of knowing who God has created you to be in order to synchronize your life with his plan. With humor and wit, he describes heart-wrenching lessons learned through his success and failure. Based on Romans 8:28-29, 'Life Has Ups and Life Has Dips' is a dramatic story of faith and trust in the faithfulness and trustworthiness of God. This one of a kind book will captivate your attention and inspire you to look beyond any negative circumstance and lean on the Unchanging God of the Bible. Rene Luis Medina is a preacher, teacher and story teller. With a heart of a pastor, his passion is to discover what God wants him to be rather than being the captain of his own soul. A former ordained minister and administrative bishop, his journey and decision to leave the professional clergy life and thrive within the secular world were not an easy task. Because of his willingness to allow the Unchanging God to define him, Rene found success and contentment in the midst of a challenging economy. Recognizing his God-given gifts and talents, Rene redefined himself in the charity and medical-legal sector. Although he is a seasoned professional with more than twenty years of business experience with proven background in management and administration, Rene is a man after the heart of God. He is married to Charo, his wife of thirty years, and father to his son, Carlos, who just turned eighteen and has entered university in the fall.

Radical


Book Description

New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
