A Quaker mystic and social activist, Rufus Jones won a Nobel Prize as co-founder of the American Friends Service Committee. Widely considered one of the most significant religious voices in America at the time of his death in 1948, his writings impart an Emersonian vision of the ever-present reality of God in our souls and in our world. Indeed, his quintessentially American "affirmative mysticism" infuses all contemporary spirituality and offers an uplifting, positive, and powerful message today.

As Christians, we know that we should become more like Jesus - so we try to act differently. But changing our outward behaviour doesn't change our hearts. Only God's grace can do that. Renovation of the Heart lays a biblical foundation for spiritual transformation, exploring the disciplines and practices that are crucial if we are to be changed from the inside out. Immensely profound but also practical and encouraging, Dallas Willard's insightful wisdom challenges us to rethink what it really means to become more Christlike and how we do so. This special 20th anniversary edition - featuring a new introduction by John Mark Comer, revised discussion questions and a never before published interview with Dallas Willard - shows that this dynamic and practical approach to spiritual growth is just as needed today as it was 20 years ago. It will both challenge and inspire you on the path of becoming more like Jesus and equip you to engage actively and intentionally in your spiritual formation. Renovation of the Heart has helped countless Christians begin the process of spiritual transformation. It is ideal both for anyone new to the Christian faith looking for guidance in discipleship, and those who are already Christians and want a new approach to help their spiritual growth and reaffirm their faith. Don't settle for complacency. Accept the challenge Renovation of the Heart offers and discover what Dallas Willard describes as a divine process that "brings every element in our being, working from inside out, into harmony with the will of God." Become an intentional apprentice of Jesus Christ, changing daily as you walk with Him.

This book reveals what heaven expects from the church. It reveals what Jesus meant by I will build my church. It is not a critique but a standard of spiritual measurement and divine alignment as to the definition of a true church.

The true church is one, which has placed primacy on building the dispensational temple (the man) only according to God s pattern. This book will be a great eye opener for you. You will no longer strive in the flesh any more after going through this book. The issue of competition, comparison, sense of inferiority and superiority complex, which are some of the distraction and strategies of the enemy, will be exposed. Your work and ministry with God will never remain the same. You can't read this book and still retain your old mentality and operating system. Whatever you are building for the Lord from now on shall be to the Lord's glory and according to his specifications. Personal agenda will be given up. Deeper truths and insights are made available inside this book.."

The Dead-Living Church'' re-defines the concept of church (the true Ekklesia), her global positioning and her responsibilities according to the original intent of God. Jesus' declaration in Matthew 16, I will build my church and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it far outweighs the theological assumptions and religious beliefs about what church is supposed to be. This book is not a product of professionalism; it is a prophetic release by the Spirit of the living God. The Church is not a denominational gathering of religious people, but the Ekklesia, the people called for an assignment, the assembly of legislating on behalf of God on earth. This book will take you through a journey. Its intent assuredly will awaken your spirit man to experience a paradigm shift from Churchianity to that which is God s original intention."

Sister Katey's letters reveal, vividly, life in a little-known part of Brazil. The reader is struck by the caring attitude and generous spirit of those who have very little to spare and share. It is a compassionate but unsentimental account in which practical and spiritual help go hand in hand with the help of trained lay leaders - perhaps a pattern for the Church in other parts of our world.
