New Living Bible

What can we learn about leadership and influence from Paul? Most Christians know something of the Apostle Paul's life and ministry, but what about the incredible team of influencers he assembled and mobilized? Who were they, and how did Paul lead this team to accomplish God's purposes? Even more, what can we learn from their successes and failures, and how can we imitate their qualities?

The Bible contains around 750,000 words - a number that would intimidate even the most seasoned readers of the Bible. Yet, from the beginning of time, God set in place a plan to bring us back to the One who loves us. Remarkably - as though God couldn't wait to tell us - this plan is telegraphed in the first few pages of the Bible and can be summed up in just 10 words: light, dust, breath, garden, river, eat, alone, naked, afraid, sweat. Deron Spoo traces each word through the Bible and explains how these words reveal God's plan for restoring our broken world.

Since true identity is crucial to the Christian life, spiritual warfare, and God's grace, One New Dude challenges you to take a closer look at your intangible makeup. Specifically, recognize that the believer has just one nature and just one identity. More than this, the audiobook is an encouraging listen intended to lift an unnecessary burden in the life of the believer. With exhortations pointing to the finished, supernatural work of Christ's Cross of Calvary, One New Dude brings forth an insightful awareness of true newness.

Remarkable Hope reveals a pattern of hope where individuals were surprised by Jesus in drastic ways after they placed their hope in him and were-at first-disappointed. Their stories show his work was rarely what they anticipated. As we observe Christ's faithful commitment to these Biblical characters who hoped in him, we are wowed by his unseen plan. We are comforted by his orchestration of circumstances and revived by his enduring presence. Remarkable Hope helps us gladly declare, like the apostle Paul, that "our hope does not disappoint us."

James' practical approach to Christian living makes his discussion of complex, spiritual issues both easy to understand, and easy to implement in one's life.

In this second Biblical Foundation book, The New Way of Living, we will look at two of the six foundational doctrines of the Christian faith found in Hebrews 6:1-2 - repentance from dead works and faith toward God: Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment (NKJ).

The Apostle Paul writes the Book of Romans as a legal document to justify the believer's freedom. Free by Divine Decree takes you inside the court room to witness how the case for your freedom was argued and decided. The final verdict from the Supreme Judge is that "in Christ" you are righteous not by achieving but by believing. The truth in this audiobook will set you free - free indeed. No further appeal! Your freedom is not a feeling it is a fact. The Verdict Is In: Condemnation is OUT.

When tomorrow is harder than today, how will you endure? Peter preached boldly in one moment and cursed cowardly in another. His faith and obedience went up and down, down and up. But through it all, the grace of Jesus toward Peter endured. This is also how we will endure - through the amazing, enduring grace of God. In 21 stories, authors Stephen Morefield and Benjamin Vrbicek trace the life and teaching of the Apostle Peter as he followed Jesus. Peter’s story gives us hope that Jesus really is a friend of sinners and mighty to save.

Jesus was a master storyteller, and his characters are well known, even to those who have never cracked the cover of a Bible. His famous Parable of the Prodigal Son features two sons and their father. The brothers represent the range of human behavior, from rebellious to self-righteous. Their father represents a father who deeply loves his children, regardless of how they act.

When it comes to hearing a word from God, whether through reading the written word or hearing a word spoken through another voice, it is always designed for action. That is why it is vital to not only hear a word from God, but learn to “keep it” during the process of fulfillment. This is the idea behind Stewarding Prophecy. This short instructional book will unfold the necessity of engaging in the prophetic process of development, hidden in every prophetic word. It will also lay out some practical guidelines to wage spiritual warfare in the ongoing battle of words.

What did the Lord mean when He said…Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God? The answer might surprise you. Understanding regeneration should be a priority for every Christian, and in understanding what it means to be Born Again the glory of Christ and the Work of the Cross is magnified in the heart of the Believer. As we set aside some popular misconceptions about what Scripture teaches concerning our Salvation, we begin to understand the harmony and consistency of God’s Redemptive Plan and His will for our lives.

Todd Wilson’s church was devoted to the gospel and had long aspired to be the kind of city on a hill Jesus talks about in the Sermon on the Mount. They wanted their hurting neighbors to see the light of Christ and be drawn to meet Jesus, and they found the answers they were looking for in Titus. In that often-overlooked book of the Bible, they discovered a call to be zealous for good works. Zealous for Good Works is an exposition of Titus with a particular focus on mobilizing the church towards acting in kindness and goodness toward her neighbors.

Just as Christ took John on a lifelong journey into the depths of His love, He will do the same for you. The bridegroom's love is unmatched and inexhaustible, and He is waiting to lavish it on you, His beloved. You will not be the same.

Our world is charged with both the grandeur of God and the void of his absence. The seven deadly sins are the force causing that hole. They are at work in each of us. They decimate our relationships, our souls, and our world. These deadly sins often seem pleasing and good for gaining what we desire, but they are thoroughly poisonous. Conversely, the Beatitudes are Jesus' pictures of a restored creation.

Mark doesn't waste words in his Gospel. His Jesus, the Jesus, is a man on a mission, determined, racing. Mark doesn't waste words, but his words pack a punch and his brief descriptions beg for deep reflection. Like a passenger in a car driving quickly, we can easily miss the details of the landscape if we don't pay careful attention. Mark sets us on a race, but it's important to stop along the way. A Path Strewn with Sinners sets us on Jesus' race to the cross, but it also insists we take time to ponder, to notice what Mark notes, and what he doesn't.
