Alcanzar el conocimiento de lo que somos es reconocer que somos una unidad indivisa con Dios, en Cristo. La reunión de nuestra naturaleza humana con la divina, o mejor dicho el hacernos conscientes de ello, es aceptarnos tal como somos en verdad. Somos una nueva humanidad. Un nuevo ser en el que se reúne lo humano, lo crístico y lo divino en una sola realidad santa. Vivir en armonía con esta verdad nos permite vivir en paz con nosotros mismos, y por ende con los demás y el mundo entero. Somos Cristo humanado.

Six circles of relationship formed around Jesus in his time on earth. In the outermost circle, the Crowds who were curious. Next, the Five Thousand who were needy, while the Seventy worked and served in Jesus’ ministry; then came the Twelve who walked with Jesus, the Three who suffered and celebrated with him, and finally the One who sat beside him at the Last Supper. In The One Jesus Loves, you will learn about each of the six circles, and what it takes to move further in, closer and closer to Jesus.

He wants every believer to experience this transformative love that has changed his own live forever. Come as you are, and drink deeply of the love of God.

According to John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, God raised up Methodism in order to spread the central teaching of entire sanctification. The church has offered an unbalanced understanding of the gospel for too long. This book calls all Methodists—the spiritual descendants of the Wesleyan revival, regardless of contemporary denominational expression—back to who we have been at our best. Perfect Love provides an in-depth explanation of entire sanctification and helps listeners pursue all that God has for us.

Forming deep relationships with God and with others is the most important aspect of mortal life, and yet one of the most vexing problems many face during their time on this Earth is the lack of love - the inability to receive and give love as the savior did. In Filled with His Love, Russell T. Osguthorpe, former Sunday School General President, addresses the question of how we can increase our capacity to give and receive love so that we can have secure, healthy relationships with God and with others.

Our world is shouting for more love and less hate. But this cry is rooted in a terrible misunderstanding: one that fuels the divisiveness and disunity that is destroying our world. In A Deeper Love, Seth unveils this mistaken view of love and shines light on what it really means to grow in authentically loving God and people. As it turns out, hate isn’t really the problem at all. Rather, we often settle for cheap substitutes and misdirected loves. Now more than ever we must grow in understanding and walking in a deeper love.

Good Christians are supposedly known for diligently practicing spiritual disciplines like Bible study, prayer, evangelism, and serving God. Disciplines that are expected, through inspired effort, to conquer sin in us and in the world. The tragedy is so few Christians understand that we aren’t just sinful but wounded. We don’t need a list of disciplines. We need a healer, a deliverer to come and set us free. Kevin Butcher points us toward this healing Jesus, who offers us his all-encompassing love.

In this six-session Bible study, Karen Ehman helps you rediscover the life-changing joy that comes from putting others first.

Every Christian cherishes the famous passage in Galatians 5:22-23 that lists the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. These are the marks of godly character that we strive to display. But has it ever occurred to you that these are also the characteristics of God? Can it be that God loves us with the fruit of the Spirit? And only when we are secure in that love can we display it to others? Jessica Thompson wants to take you deeper into the love that your Heavenly Father has for you.

Williams shares the theological journey of his personal revelation of love that is so clear and well-defined, it indeed has the power to transform the heart of each and every person who listens to it.
