Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do I cultivate a life that is purposeful, deep, and fruitful? What are the commitments, critical risks, and personal practices that open me to God's grace? How can I discover the spiritual life and the difference God intends for me to make in the world? Radical Hospitality. Passionate Worship. Intentional Faith Development. Risk-Taking Mission and Service. Extravagant Generosity. Five Practices of Fruitful Living provides an honest, practical, and winsome guide to the spiritual journey. By repeating and deepening certain fundamental practices, we cooperate with God in our spiritual growth. These five practices - to receive God's love, to love God in return, to grow in Christ, to serve others, and to give ourselves fully - as we attend to them and develop them, help us settle ourselves in God and become instruments of God's grace. Following Christ will change your heart; and through you, God will change the world. FROM THE INTRODUCTION - "Five Practices of Fruitful Living moves the discussion of Christian practice from the congregational level to the personal practices of discipleship. The fruitful, God-related life develops with intentional and repeated attention to five essential practices that are critical for our growth in Christ. Radical Hospitality. Passionate Worship. Intentional Faith Development. Risk-Taking Mission and Service. Extravagant Generosity. These practices open our heart—to God, to others, to a life that matters, a life rich with meaning, relationship, and contribution. They help us flourish."

Download or read book The Fruitful Life written by Jerry Bridges and published by Tyndale House. This book was released on 2014-02-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We want to live loving, joyful, anxiety-free lives. Yet how can we live in grace when we’re so busy battling our old patterns of behavior? Jerry Bridges explores the nine aspects of the “fruit of the Spirit” described in Galatians 5:22-23: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. These qualities of character can truly mark our lives if we devote ourselves to a twofold pursuit: God-centeredness and God-likeness. Jerry shows us how to practice the fruit in daily life. When The Fruitful Life first released, Jerry said, “It was the book I had wanted to write that included everything I forgot and/or learned since The Pursuit of Holiness.”

It will also be of interest to those yet to come to Christ or outside Christianity to explore the book for keys to a healthy spiritual life through the Holy Spirit.It is "accordingly with gratification to advocate this book to all peoples who worship God--the Christians and also the non-Christian." It is to strengthen the love for God and to live a life so proclaimed by the Lord that we are created to worship, and glorify Him. "Even everyone that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him" (Isaiah 43:7).

This is your key to the developmental processes of the Holy Spirit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is God disappointed in me? Am I doing enough? Why is it so hard to produce the fruit of the Spirit? If producing spiritual fruit has ever felt like toil, this study will help you discover the way Jesus meant for fruit to grow. No matter where you are on your journey to bearing fruit, this 13-lesson scripture study will lead you into an even more fruitful life. New believers, as well as those who have been in the church for decades, can both find greater victory in the areas of bearing fruit and abiding in Jesus. Some of the most common themes in Jesus’ parables are planting, sowing, and harvesting. In Effortless Fruitfulness, the author examines many of those parables and stories from the New Testament, along with examples from her own life, to reveal practical steps and raise thought-provoking questions that will help you step out of striving and into supernatural growth. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 NIV ..... This is a thirteen-session individual or small group study and workbook that examines Jesus' parables and teachings in the Gospels about bearing fruit, abiding in the vine, sowing and reaping, harvesting, and other agricultural metaphors and reveals how many Christians have been trying to gain victory in these areas by self-effort without realizing it. Be ready to be set free and equipped for greater fruitfulness! The paperback version of this book is both a bible study and a workbook. The eBook version has all the same content, but lacks the workbook layout and space to answer the questions. It is recommended that you have a separate journal on hand for writing your answers to the questions when reading the eBook version. Perfect for a Bible study, small group, or for individual study or quiet time to foster spiritual and personal growth.

Book excerpt: Paul spoke of laboring among the Galatians that "Christ might be formed in them." Later, he speaks of the development of Christian character in their lives, what he calls the "fruit of the Spirit." The question is, how is Christ like character cultivated in our lives? The contention of this book is that such fruit is produced naturally and organically through abiding in Jesus Christ. The starting point is not Galatians 5, but John 15. There Jesus informs us that it is as we abide in Him that we bear fruit m
