FOLLOWING CHRIST
Do you want your life to count for Christ? Would you like to make a real impact for God’s kingdom in this world? You can-and you don’t have to be a great leader for it to happen. Just a good follower.
In Following Christ, Joseph Stowell shows why Christ’s command to “Follow me” isn’t merely the starting point of Christianity. It’s the very heartbeat of vibrant, effective faith. And its not just for a few gifted leaders, but for all believers.
“Christianity is a relationship, an adventure, a passionate pursuit of Christ,” says Stowell. “Followers escape the drudgery of a system of rituals and regulations, and revel in the discovery of the ever-interesting Christ.”
Stowell shows you what happens when an ordinary man or woman pursues not the trappings of Christianity, but Christ himself.
You’ll discover:
– What a “non-negotiated” follower looks like
– Why God does his best work through followers
– Why self-directed living is a recipe for emptiness
– What makes Christ so worth following
– How Christ transforms our character
– What it means to pick up your cross
– Why a close walk with Jesus is the key to effective living
This inspiring book cuts through the side-issues of Christianity to reveal its true, compelling object: Jesus Christ. As his fully devoted follower, you’ll discover a dynamic and refreshing way of living-one that will sustain you through life’s valleys and provide breathtaking spiritual vistas from its peaks. Its Christianity the way God intended it, marked by simplicity. Vigorous faith. Purpose and direction. Soul-winning impact on those around you.
And above all, a joyous, growing closeness with Christ.

Case For Christ (Revised)
$19.99Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.
Strobel challenges them with questions like, How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it’s not fiction. It’s a riveting quest for the truth about history’s most compelling figure.
The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book’s impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.
