Download or read book The Discipline of Grace written by Jerry Bridges and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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).
Download or read book Habits of Grace written by David Mathis and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book The Pursuit of Holiness written by Jerry Bridges and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2016 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition replaces both The Pursuit of Holiness (ISBN 9781576839324) and the study guide (ISBN 9781576839881) by combining both resources into one volume "Be holy, for I am holy," commands God. But holiness is something that is often missed in the Christian's daily life. According to Navigator author Jerry Bridges, that's because we're not exactly sure what our part in holiness is. In The Pursuit of Holiness, he helps us see clearly just what we should rely on God to do--and what we should take responsibility for ourselves. As you deepen your relationship with God, learn more about His character, and understand the Holy Spirit's role in holiness, your spiritual growth will mature.

Download or read book Transforming Grace written by Jerry Bridges and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2017-10-03 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Confidently in God's Unfailing Love Grace is amazing because it is God's provision for when we fall short of His standards. Unfortunately, too many of us embrace grace for our salvation but then leave it behind in our everyday lives. We base our relationship with God on our performance rather than on His love for us, even when we intuitively know that our performance cannot earn us the love we so desperately crave. Isn't it time to stop trying to measure up and begin accepting the transforming power of God's grace? The product of more than ten years of Bible study, Navigator author Jerry Bridges's Transforming Grace is a fountainhead of inspiration and renewal that will show you just how inexhaustible and generous God's grace really is. This edition includes the full study guide, which was formerly available as a separate product (ISBN 9781600063046).
Download or read book Ragged written by Gretchen Ronnevik and published by New Reformation Publications. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we mistake spiritual disciplines for to-dos, time slots on our schedule, or Instagram-able moments, we miss the benefits of Christ's continual and constant work for us. In Ragged, Gretchen Ronnevik aims to reclaim spiritual disciplines as good gifts given by our good Father instead of heavy burdens of performance carried by the Christian. Only when we recognize our failures to maintain God's commands do we also realize the benefit of our dependence on his promises. Gretchen uses this distinction on law and gospel, presented throughout Scripture, to guide readers through spiritual disciplines including prayer, meditation, Scripture reading, and discipleship among others. Despite our best efforts, the good news is that spiritual disciplines have less to do with what we bring before God and more about who Christ is for us, not only as the author but also as the perfector of our faith.

Download or read book Disciplined by Grace written by J. F. Strombeck and published by . This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful and practical book demonstrates that the Christian life is to be lived the same way it began at salvation all by God s grace through faith in Jesus Christ. When first published, DISCIPLINED BY GRACE received the following endorsement from Dr. Lewis Sperry Chafer, founder of Dallas Theological Seminary: One feature in the doctrine of grace which has been so greatly neglected is the life which is to be lived unto God after one is saved by grace. . . . DISCIPLINED BY GRACE covers this ground and meets this need in a wonderful way. It should be read by every Christian. I commend it most heartily. In a formal review of DISCIPLINED BY GRACE, Dr. Chafer also wrote: Mr. Strombeck has exercised his peculiar ability to make the truth about divine grace clear and simple. Twenty-one short, crisp chapters on as many phases of this inexhaustible theme are presented. . . . Read this book carefully, and all the writings of Mr. Strombeck. This is the earnest, serious recommendation of the reviewer.
