In addition, other contributors explore discipleship in the context of the local church, spiritual formation, and the life of the mind.

Original price was: $16.99.$11.66Current price is: $11.66.Add to cartIn our age of instant gratification and if-it-feels-good-do-it attitudes, self-discipline is hardly a popular notion.

– discipline the mind, body, possessions, time, and feelings
– overcome anxiety
– change poor habits and attitudes
– trust God in times of trial and hardship
– let Christ have control in all areas of lifeElliot masterfully and gently takes readers through Scripture, personal stories, and incisive observations of the world around her to help them discover the understanding that our fulfillment as human beings depends on our answer to God’s call to obedience.
Dark Clouds Deep Mercy
Original price was: $15.99.$11.63Current price is: $11.63.Add to cartWhere do you turn when the dark clouds of pain, suffering, and loss roll into your life? In a broken world, difficult trials can lead quickly to discouragement and despair-even for Christians. But the Bible sets forth an oft-neglected practice for dealing with such trials: lament. To lament is to turn to God in honest, desperate prayer, giving voice to the reality of our emotions-as intense and tumultuous as they may be. Ultimately, lament is an expression of faith in the God who hears our cries and responds with mercy and grace. Drawing on examples from the Bible and his own story of loss, pastor Mark Vroegop walks through steps of lament (Turn, Complain, Ask, and Trust) to show what lament is, why it is important, and how to enter into it-helping readers learn to live between the poles of God’s goodness and a hard life.
Pride And Humility At War
Original price was: $17.99.$12.99Current price is: $12.99.Add to cartLanier Burns shows that the Bible consistently presents humility as the supreme virtue. In contrast, pride is the underlying depravity behind specific sins. Humility’s surprising essence is God-centeredness-living for the glory of God rather than self. On the basis of the biblical principle, Christ’s example, and the contemporary need, Pride and Humility at War argues for the unfamiliar connection between true significance and a humble dependence on the Lord.

Spiritual Discipleship : Principles Of Following Christ For Every Believer
Original price was: $16.99.$13.03Current price is: $13.03.Add to cartTake time and trouble to keep yourself spiritually fit.*
As J. Oswald points out, true discipleship is more than intellectual assent to a belief in Christ; it involves the whole person and lifestyle.
Those with only superficial belief will soon fall away from the faith, but Sanders says a true disciple would rather be presented with a difficult challenge than a soft option. Disciples are charged with the task of training themselves to be godly, because it is their responsibility to remain spiritually fit.
In addition, a For Reflection guide is included, making this book ideal for both individual and group study.

Trusting God
Original price was: $17.99.$10.99Current price is: $10.99.Add to cartWhy is it easier to obey God than to trust Him?
Because obeying God makes sense to us. In most cases, His laws appear reasonable and wise, and even when we don’t want to obey them, we usually concede that they are good for us. But the circumstances we find ourselves in often defy explanation. Before long, we begin to doubt God’s concern for us or His control over our lives. We ask, Why is God allowing this? or What have I done wrong?
During such a time of adversity, Jerry Bridges began a thorough Bible study on the topic of God’s sovereignty. What he learned changed his life, and in Trusting God he shares the fruit of that study. As you explore the scope of God’s power over nations, nature, and even the details of your life, you’ll find yourself trusting Him more completely?even when life hurts.

As you deepen your relationship with God, learn more about His character, and understand the Holy Spirit’s role in holiness, your spiritual growth will mature.The included study guide contains 12 lessons.
