Risky Gospel : Abandon Fear And Build Something Awesome
$19.99
Risky Gospel is a call to modern Christians to break with a fearful, risk-averse faith and to embrace a Christianity driven by a great God, a powerful gospel, and a holisti-cally courageous way of life.
Do you feel pressure to act as if life is always good, everyone is nice, and things are always going to get better, as if we’re all shiny and happy and upwardly mobile? We know it’s a put on. The reality is that we are living in uncertain times. The good news is not merely the alleviation of whatever ails us. The Lord offers us an exciting life to live. Jesus comes to us to embolden us, not to anesthetize us.
That means the calculus of life is not security, but God-driven risk. This kind of think-ing means that we approach our families, churches, jobs, free time, hobbies, and goals with God’s glory on our mind. Risky Gospel attempts to wake Christians up from their serenity-seeking coma by grouding their faith not in the world of sin but in the world of Scripture. As we see in the example of Christ and his apostles, the gos-pel is worth living for, sacrificing for, and dying for. It is the fulfillment of everything we seek. All that we could ever want is already here, and it is given us through the Holy Spirit.

Your Comeback : Your Past Doesnt Have To Determine Your Future
$16.99Moses Was a Murderer…
Rabab was a harlot….
Jacob lied…
Jonah rebelled…
Esther was a diva.These and other Bible heroes were far from perfect. They failed, they sinned, they deceived…and yet each of them had a dramatic comeback and were used of God beyond their richest imagination. The Bible isn’t the only source of “comeback” stories. Life is full of such dramatic turnarounds. Whether it’s a sports team coming from behind to win an upset or a late blooming student who wins the scholarship, or….your life story, God delights in arranging for comebacks.
Like the Biblical and contemporary examples told in The Comeback, your future can include an amazing comeback story. Popular pastor and Bible teacher, Dr. Tony Evans offers hope by pointing you to the good news that God loves to use less than perfect people. If you’re less than perfect, you qualify!
“It is definitely not too late for you. God has a purpose, a destiny, and a goal for your life. Don’t go backward on Him now. You’ve come too far. You can’t change your past regardless of how much you may want to. But your past does not have to determine your future.” Dr. Tony Evans
