Following Jesus does not have to be as complicated as Christianity can make it appear. While Jesus certainly requires commitment, He has never required complexity. Better Than a Christian helps you to strengthen your walk with Christ by allowing Jesus to define and simplify that walk. In fact, Jesus made five statements about following him that will radically transform your relationship with Christ and deeply impact the lives of those around you.

Our dreams for life are often overlaid with cultural filters. Expectations of achievement; demands that pull in every direction; the look we have to have. Our vision gets blurred, and we lose sight of what matters or why we even exist. We need help to re: FOCUS. From this audiobook you will rediscover the dignified and significant calling we each have, and where you fit into God's eternal purpose. When looking for your next steps of calling, the re: FOCUS course goes deeper than a profiling tool or spiritual gift assessment.

Over the last 30 years, many influential church leaders and church planters in America have adopted various models for reaching unchurched people. An “attractional” model will seek to attract people to a local church. Younger leaders may advocate a more “missional” approach, in which believers live and work among unchurched people and intentionally seek to serve like Christ. While each of these approaches have merit, something is still missing, something even more fundamental to the mission of the church: discipleship.

In this audiobook, Pastor James Garlow and evangelical political activist David Barton present fellow Christians with six steps America needs to take to prevent chaos at this precarious moment in history.

Have you joined a church or small group in hopes of experiencing real life change, only to be disappointed? Have you sat through inspiring sermons about what is possible when Christians gather together in mutually edifying relationships, only to recognize how cynical you have become after many failed attempts? Community may be one of the most over-promised, under-delivered aspects of the Christian life today. Individuals remain selfish and stuck in their ways.

Discipleship is a very costly business, and in moments of severe trials, one may be tempted to ask, “Why go into all this trouble of suffering with Christ? Why not give up? Is there any reward?” A disciple of Christ is a person who has, first of all, received the Lord Jesus Christ as his or her personal Savior and is therefore reconciled to God, and, secondly, has set his whole heart, mind, and all to seek him.

Although the five books in this series are complementary and help the listener to have a more complete view of the theme, each book is complete in its own right and should be enjoyed for the profit of it. Although the books are rooted in the Word of God, they are written not merely to help listeners to know God’s point of view about the matters discussed but also to lead the believer beyond theoretical understanding into spiritual experience; for sanctification is, ultimately, not merely a doctrine but an experience.

For one singular purpose, Jesus of Nazareth came into this world: to destroy the work of darkness and reconcile God's children of creation to Himself. The bloody cross was the crucible through which this glorious reunion was consecrated, and the crucible through which Christ has called us into the divine family. Through the cross we share His blood and through Christ's blood we share the DNA of heaven. But we must walk the walk. This audiobook is a call to the one road of true discipleship - the road walked by the first disciples and the early church.

The Query is a collection of stories - stories of hope - arising from a simple question: "What is the reason for the hope that is within you?" They were gathered through chance encounters with strangers across America: on airplanes, in restaurants or cafés, at a car dealership, in a jury waiting room. The stories are as diverse as the storytellers: a teen anticipating senior prom in the arms of her first love; a crusty construction superintendent; an engaging nuclear physicist; a widow scarred by life, with no hope; a priest on assignment in Rome; and many more.

This book may be controversial to the church establishment, or even banned by your local church, because we expose the majority of American churches out there as "sellouts," and on the take of the government. If one of the ultimate goals for a martial arts ministry is to disciple believers in the faith, this reality has to be exposed to be successful at starting a martial arts ministry. The man of God who has been called to start a martial arts ministry, has to understand the serious nature of his responsibilities, and move as the spirit of God leads.

Blaise Pascal famously wrote about a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of every man. In 2017, despite unprecedented progress in science, health, peace, and prosperity, statistic after statistic demonstrates that man's quiet desperation has never been greater.

Making Disciples is a rationale for making disciples of Jesus Christ and a practical guide to meet with others one-on-one to make them mature disciples of Jesus Christ.

For years I have tried to make sense of Bible end-time prophecy, but had not been able to join all the dots together. Some ideas seemed to fit together while others made no sense at all. What made things so confusing was that the church had many different opinions concerning end times. Why were/are there so many different opinions? Why can't church leaders give us a "Thus saith the Lord" on the subject? Is God keeping the truth from us for some unknown reason or do you need a PhD in theology?
