I found the whole booklet so rich, spiritual and scriptural and appropriately backend by saints, that there was nothing in the book that could be side tracked. Going through the book I felt that the book was the creation of a person who has himself carried the cross, put into practice whatever advice he has given. To make the prick less painful whatever advice he has given. To make the prick less painful Fr. Paul suggests a few methods under the title " The Art of Bearing the Cross". This book, in short, explains to us what the cross it, its meaning, its inevitability, necessity, and its importance in spiritual life.

The Lifestyle of the Cross is an insightful guide for Christians who want to broaden their understanding of the Cross and what it means to be a follower of Jesus. Religious scholar and pastor Dr. Robin Riggs leads readers to discover for themselves how the Cross must not be deprived of suffering or victory. Instead, a proper balance between both must be taught to truly align with the message of the New Testament. Dr. Robin Riggs and his wife, Sheila, have been pastors in the Church of God for nearly four decades. They met as students at Anderson University and went on to pastor congregations in Illinois, Michigan and Indiana. Their son, Xen, is a minister. Their daughter, Shayla, is an interpreter for the deaf. As a seasoned pastor, Dr. Riggs has developed insight into many aspects of the spirituality of today's church.

Does your church make you uncomfortable? It’s easy to dream about the “perfect” church—a church that sings just the right songs set to just the right music before the pastor preaches just the right sermon to a room filled with just the right mix of people who happen to agree with you on just about everything. Chances are your church doesn’t quite look like that. But what if instead of searching for a church that makes us comfortable, we learned to love our church, even when it’s challenging? What if some of the discomfort that we often experience is actually good for us? This book is a call to embrace the uncomfortable aspects of Christian community, whether that means believing difficult truths, pursuing difficult holiness, or loving difficult people—all for the sake of the gospel, God’s glory, and our joy.

In his well-received Christless Christianity Michael Horton offered a prophetic wake-up call for a self-centered American church. With The Gospel-Driven Life he turns from the crisis to the solutions, offering his recommendations for a new reformation in the faith, practice, and witness of contemporary Christianity. This insightful book will guide readers in reorienting their faith and the church's purpose toward the good news of the gospel. The first six chapters explore that breaking news from heaven, while the rest of the book focuses on the kind of community that the gospel generates and the surprising ways in which God is at work in the world. Here is fresh news for Christians who are burned out on hype and are looking for hope.

Do you want your life to count for Christ? Would you like to make a real impact for God's kingdom in this world? You can -- and you don't have to be a great leader for it to happen. Just a good follower. In Following Christ, Joseph Stowell shows why Christ's command to "Follow me" isn't merely the starting point of Christianity. It's the very heartbeat of vibrant, effective faith. And it's not just for a few gifted leaders, but for all believers. Stowell shows you what happens when an ordinary man or woman pursues not the trappings of Christianity, but Christ himself. You'll discover - What a "non-negotiated follower" looks like - Why God does his best work through followers - Why self-directed living is a recipe for emptiness - What makes Christ so worth following - What it means to pick up your cross - Why a close walk with Jesus is the key to effective living -- Following Christ paints a compelling portrait of Christianity the way God intended it, marked by simplicity, vigorous faith, purpose and direction, soul-winning impact on others . . . and above all, a joyous, growing closeness with Christ.
