Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends!

It’s time to awaken your true self. You are the apple of God’s eye. It has been said that the church is suffering an identity crisis. Perhaps, this is why we have so many Christians sitting in the church not knowing who they are or what their purpose is in life. It’s as if they have become orphaned—unable to discover their godly inheritance. It is important to know who we are in Christ and what we have a right to, but it is equally important to have a full understanding of our spiritual birthright. The true spiritual life is so much more than just being a good person, going to church, or performing good deeds. The true spiritual life is royal! Christ did not come to earth to establish a religion. He came to awaken royalty. There is nothing more exciting than discovering who we are in him. We were created to reign. We are meant to shine. We are destined to be loved and to reflect God’s love to the world. So get ready! You are about to embark on a great journey. As you read the pages of this book, you will discover that you don ́t have to wait for heaven to be spiritually alive. Life is yours now! “This book is a beautiful revelatory masterpiece of the saints of God being taught and equipped on how to walk in their new-creation identity.” —Pastor Brandon Cornelius Sr. Founder and Leader of Glory Revival Center “You are the Apple of God’s Eye is a powerful and life-impacting book that is scripture-based to open you up as to how you can fit into the kingdom of God. I was truly brought back to understanding the importance of my position within the kingdom of God. This book is necessary for inspirational kingdom daily living.” —Pastor C. L. Collins Jr. Kingdom Bound Community Church
The author of Desiring God reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Includes a study guide for individual and small-group use. Isn’t it true—we really don’t know someone until we understand what makes that person happy? And so it is with God! What does bring delight to the happiest Being in the universe? John Piper writes, that it’s only when we know what makes God glad that we’ll know the greatness of His glory. Therefore, we must comprehend “the pleasures of God.” Unlike so much of what is written today, this is not a book about us. It is about the One we were made for—God Himself. In this theological masterpiece—chosen by World Magazine as one of the 20th Century’s top 100 books, John Piper reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Then we will be able to drink deeply—and satisfyingly—from the only well that offers living water. What followers of Jesus need now, more than anything else, is to know and love—behold and embrace—the great, glorious, sovereign, happy God of the Bible. “This is a unique and precious book that everybody should read more than once.” —J.I. PACKER, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia
