When you honor others, you honor God.
Trying harder doesn't always improve relationships or bring promotion. But choosing to live with honor will strengthen relationships, bring elevation, build bridges, and deepen our worship of and intimacy with God.
The blessing of honor is seen throughout Scripture, as those who remained honorable flourished, and those who did not suffered from tragedies, wars, and hardships. This book explains that when we honor family members, authority figures, the overlooked, colleagues, subordinates, and the like simply because they are God's creation, we honor God. And honoring God is an act of worship that leads to a deeper intimacy with Him. While some self-improvement and leadership books address the importance of respect, few explain the life-changing power of honor. Through biblical examples and personal stories, this book will help readers grow closer in their relationship with Jesus and truly appreciate the people around them as they learn to create a culture of honor in their lives, families, and ministries.
Pastor and writer Rich Wilkerson Jr. shines a spotlight on every
Christian's calling to reach the world, seek the lost, and save
sinners with Jesus' scandalous message of the gospel of grace. The
Bible calls Jesus a friend of sinners. What does that mean? In
Friend of Sinners, Rich Wilkerson Jr. shows readers the profound
implications of the reality that Jesus calls us friends not because
of who we are or what we have done, but because of who he is. While
he was on earth, he knew that people needed to belong before they
would want to behave. He understood that the power within him was
greater than the darkness around him, so he loved fearlessly. By
following his example, we can have the same clear conviction and
compassion for the lost that he did. His gospel of scandalous grace
cannot be overestimated. When we embrace the truth that we all need
Jesus equally and when we trust him to bring transformation in
people's hearts, we will walk as Jesus walked, experiencing the
glory of God in our own lives and in the lives of those around us.
The Bible tells us that Jesus was called a lot of names by people.
Many of the religious leaders of the day were jealous of his
success and wanted to discredit him in the eyes of the public, so
they said all sorts of crazy things about him. They whispered that
he was an illegitimate child. They accused him of being
demon-possessed. They denounced him to the Roman authorities as a
rioter and a threat of public peace. In this five-session video
Bible study (DVD/digital videos sold separately), pastor and author
Rich Wilkerson, Jr. reveals how one of their nicknames for Jesus
was true: "Here is a . . . friend of tax collectors and sinners"
(Luke 7:34). In the religious leaders' minds this was one of the
greatest indictments imaginable, but for Jesus it was a sign of
success because it was the very definition of his mission. Today,
Jesus still calls us "friends," not because of who we are or what
we have done but because of who he is. While he was on earth, he
knew that people needed to feel as if they belonged before they
would want to behave. Rich shows that by following his example, we
can have the same clear conviction and compassion for the lost that
Jesus did. When we embrace the truth that we all need Jesus
equally, and when we trust him to bring transformation in people's
hearts, we will walk as Jesus walked, experiencing the glory of God
in our own lives and in the lives of those around us. The Friend of
Sinners Study Guide includes video discussion questions, Bible
exploration, and personal study and reflection materials for
in-between sessions. Sessions include: Missed Message Weight Shift
Lost and Found Comfortably Uncomfortable How to Be Great Designed
