The signs are unmistakable.
We've always had earthquakes but this many? We've always faced natural disasters
but this terrible? We've always had Middle East tensions but this intense? This
widespread?
Jesus said there would be clear signs in our world before His return. Over the last few
months and years, as we read headline after amazing headline, those signs seem to
be escalating. Could Christ's return and our world's final days be very far away? Greg
Laurie opens the Scriptures, offering insight, warning, and encouragement to "make
the most of every opportunity" in these challenging days.
It's easy to think that emotional pain and feelings of hopelessness
are modern issues. But two thousand years ago, Jesus ministered to
people who were also longing for peace and happiness. His answer?
God's peace--his Shalom, a word so important that it's translated
seventy different ways in the Bible. This often-overlooked aspect
of the Christian life is the foundation for deep, meaningful
happiness. In this uplifting book, Jeremiah Johnston provides a
biblical perspective on living a life of Shalom. Johnston reveals:
* the peace Jesus offers vs. the peace the world promises but can't
deliver * how to apply God's peace to our current situation and
combat anxiety, fear, and hopelessness * how to protect this
perfect peace in our lives when troubles try to steal it This book
is also helpful for lay leaders, pastors, and everyone else who
recognizes the church's incredible opportunity today to help
individuals and families dealing with anxiety and depression.
The very title of the last book of the Bible means "unveiling." Yet
this mysterious and confusing book seems to do anything but unveil,
especially when we read it on our own. "Unlocking the Last Days"
takes readers through key parts of this misunderstood book, using a
verse-by-verse approach that clearly communicates God's truth,
warnings, and promises. Both Bible teachers and students will find
this book a welcome aid to understanding an intriguing piece of the
Scriptures.
Now a major motion picture *** The Jesus Movement transformed the
church--and it can transform you God has always been passionate
about turning unlikely people into His most fervent followers.
Prostitutes and pagans, tax collectors and tricksters, the pompous
and the pious--the more unlikely, the more it seemed to please God
to demonstrate His power, might, and mercy through them. America in
the 1960s and 1970s was full of many such characters--young men and
women who had rejected the conformist religion of their parents'
generation, didn't follow conventional rules, and didn't fit in.
Their longing for something more set the stage for the greatest
spiritual awakening of the twentieth century. Discover the
remarkable true story of the Jesus Movement, an extraordinary time
of mass revival, renewal, and reconciliation. Setting intriguing
personal stories within the context of one of the most tumultuous
times in modern history, Greg Laurie and Ellen Vaughn draw
important parallels with our own time of spiritual apathy and overt
hostility, offering a new vision for the next generation of
unlikely believers--and hope for the next great American revival.
Because God can always bring a new Jesus Revolution.
An intimate look at movie star Steve McQueen's reckless life of
fast cars, women, and drugs all the way up to his dramatic
life-change and terminal cancer diagnosis. Join Greg Laurie as he
takes a cross-country drive in his 1968 Highland Green Ford Mustang
390 GT through the canyons of Malibu, the alleys of Hollywood, the
wide and open roads of the Midwest, and the streets of New York as
he traces the woolly geography of actor Steve McQueen's life,
relationships, career, and spiritual journey. This iconic muscle
car was the vehicle McQueen drove in his most raucous and enduring
film, Bullitt. In the 1960s, McQueen was, according to box office
receipts, the biggest movie star of his generation and one of the
coolest men to ever walk the planet. Greg Laurie was a teen at the
time and an ardent fan of "The King of Cool," first mesmerized by
McQueen in 1963's The Great Escape. Like millions of cinema fans,
Greg developed a lifelong fascination with the actor. Now he has a
chance to tell McQueen's story. McQueen was a complex,
contradictory man who lived the same way he drove his motorcycles
and cars: fearlessly, ruthlessly, and at top speed. After a
lifetime of fast cars, women, and drugs, McQueen took a surprising
detour. In this book, Laurie thoughtfully interviews Steve
McQueen's friends, co-stars, associates, widow, and pastor to tell
of the dramatic life-change for the actor in the spring of
1979--six months before McQueen was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
What were the critical steps that led McQueen to make such a
life-altering decision? Perhaps more importantly, why is that part
of his story so rarely told? This book answers these questions.
Greg Laurie will follow the seeds of Christianity that were sown
throughout McQueen's improbable life where a Light finally shone
into the darkness of his troubled life. These seeds miraculously
germinated, allowing McQueen to see that redemption through Jesus
Christ is a lasting truth more glittering and real than any magic
of the entertainment industry.
Renowned evangelist Greg Laurie answers questions common to new Christians in this guide. New Believer's Guide to Effective Christian Living answers such questions as "How should I live as a Christian?" "How do I talk to God?" and "Where should I go to church?" Attractively priced for buying multiple copies to give away.
Are you a laborer in the harvest? The complainers are many. The
observers are many. The spectators are many. The critics are many.
But the laborers are few. We need laborers in the harvest. Will you
become one?"--Greg Laurie, "Let God Change Your Life" Evangelist
Greg Laurie calls all Christians back to radical New Testament
living in his latest offering, "Let God Change Your Life." The
blueprint is simple: get to know Jesus, follow His plan for
discipleship, and use it to tell others what you know. Laurie
drills down in three parts: How to Know God - and how it will
change your life when you doDiscipleship - the traits, the cost,
and the how-toMaking Him Known - sharing the gospel and making
disciples All Christians--not just pastors, evangelists, or
missionaries--have a part to play; "Let God Change Your Life"
Using personal experience and biblical examples, well-known pastor
Greg Laurie illustrates how prayer works in different people's
lives. In spiritual terms, Jacob wrestled with God for years. The
Syro-Phoenician Woman also wrestled with Jesus, but briefly, her
argument arising from a wholly different situation. Yet God brought
them both to roughly the same kind of relationship with Himself. He
softened Jacob's will and rewarded his submission; He honored the
woman's determination and rewarded her resolve. Through these
examples, readers will discover how heartfelt prayer and willing
submission can bring them into their own unique, rewarding
relationships with God.
