DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat Kind of Relationship Can You Have with Someone You Fear? For most of us, fear is something we try to avoid. And fearing God hardly sounds like an occasion for joy. But Jerry Bridges shows how the fear of the Lord is actually the key that opens the door to a life of true knowledge, wisdom, blessing, and joy. We all want a deeper, more intimate relationship with God–one that’s characterized by joy. But how does fearing God lead to joy? After all, aren’t we supposed to love Him and live in intimate relationship with Him? Jerry Bridges explores this paradox as he unpacks the biblical promise that God delights in those who fear Him. Join him as he unveils the awesome greatness of God–His incredible holiness, deep wisdom, and especially His inspiring love. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of who God is that will draw you into a truly biblical, and surprisingly delightful, fear of God–a fear that includes your own genuine, heartfelt delight in God. You’ll make the startling discovery that the fear of the Lord, far from being something to avoid, is the key to joyful, fulfilling, and genuine intimacy with God. It can change your relationship with God and change your life! Discover the surprising Joy of Fearing God!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBillions of people in the world have not yet heard the good news about Jesus Christ. How can we reach them? Follow the adventures of the author as she journeys into the lives of Muslims, seeking and discovering how to effectively deliver the saving message of Jesus Christ to those who need to hear it. Delve into the culture and faith of Muslims, and emerge with a perspective that will reshape the way you reveal the Savior to the world. Bridges of Love and Understanding is an inspiring witness of the unstoppable power of Jesus Christ and his deep love that reaches to the ends of the earth. -Learn the easiest way to share the gospel with anyone-Gain insight and understanding about Muslims-Be thrilled by true stories of Jesus's love that knows no bounds"As a sojourner living in an Islamic culture, Davis often begins conversations with physicians, students, and taxi drivers, by asking: 'What do you love about God?'-a question that many Muslims answer with an enthusiasm and passion that might surprise us. In recounting such fascinating encounters and the relationships that often follow, Davis invites Christian readers to ask: what shall we make of those who are in the 'wrong religion' but have 'the right kind of faith?' "Bold, engaging, discerning, scripturally informed, and eminently practical, her book is candid, disarming, and a delight to read-and reread. Davis offers us a refreshing alternative to agenda-laden apologetics. She offers us, instead, a guide and testimony revealing how to walk in step with the Spirit Who moves upon all flesh to draw all persons to Christ and to one another." -Skip Horton-Parker, PhD; London School of Theology; St Leo University

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLiving Confidently in God's Unfailing Love Grace is amazing because it is God's provision for when we fall short of His standards. Unfortunately, too many of us embrace grace for our salvation but then leave it behind in our everyday lives. We base our relationship with God on our performance rather than on His love for us, even when we intuitively know that our performance cannot earn us the love we so desperately crave. Isn't it time to stop trying to measure up and begin accepting the transforming power of God's grace? The product of more than ten years of Bible study, Navigator author Jerry Bridges's Transforming Grace is a fountainhead of inspiration and renewal that will show you just how inexhaustible and generous God's grace really is. This edition includes the full study guide, which was formerly available as a separate product (ISBN 9781600063046).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDiscover the power of recovery ministry for your church. Churchgoers who experience painful family issues, addictions, abuse, loss, mental illnesses, and other secret sorrows begin to believe they live beyond the grip of God’s redemptive hand. Pastors often feel ill equipped to help with such problems and refer people to resources outside the church. People badly need Christ-centered counsel and encouragement, but few church leaders even know where to start. Bridges to Grace is an inspiring introduction highlighting the stories of churches across the country that are thinking systematically and organizationally about the ministry of recovery. The authors share how this ministry is bringing God’s grace to hurting individuals. They relate both success and failure, and best of all, they demonstrate how God uses recovery ministry powerfully for his kingdom purposes.
