Sometimes our faith needs to be revived.
You started your spiritual life with a burst of joy, feeling deep gratitude to Christ for saving you. You rejoiced with a sense of belonging in the family of God. And likely, you couldn’t wait to open your Bible, to worship, to share your faith with others. But somewhere along the way, your passion for the Lord faded. Your spiritual journey became a slog.
The Rekindled Heart was written for you. Bible teacher and seminary president with a shepherd's heart, Mark Yarbrough helps you rekindle the joy of your salvation by guiding you back to six core essentials for reviving your faith.
Devotion—Bold Trust in God’s Word
Dependence—A Full God-Reliance on God’s Power
Love— Authentic Compassion for Others
Holiness—Relentless Pursuit of God-Honoring Excellence
Servanthood—Genuine Selflessness
World Impact—Courageous Zeal for God’s World
Biblically rich, theologically sound, and with real-life applications that connect to all ages, this book delivers a compelling reminder of the seriousness of following Jesus and the limitless experience of God’s power and provision for anyone who believes His Word.
