It's a new age now. COVID-19. There is an underlying dread around us. A renewed sense of mortality. A new search for answers to questions that should have been sought out a long time ago, but we didn't do it. "There is always time. I'm young. I've got other things that are more important right now." That isn't what is on our minds anymore. The time is now for some answers. The time is now to do a hard, thoughtful inventory of life. It's time to really find out what Christianity is all about and how that relationship with God can change my life and the lives of people around me. This isn't a moment in time - it is a journey, a trek, which can start right now for you.

A River Of Living Water Everything has a beginning, in the Christian's life that is salvation: accepting everything that Christ did to bring us into a full and close relationship with God the Father. That isn't the end, though, it is the beginning. Christ puts His Spirit into our heart and lives at salvation with the intention to mold us into the likeness of Christ. As we mature in that relationship with God through obedience to His Word, the Bible, our old nature is transformed, and new character is built. The Fruit of the Spirit begins to grow in our lives. As we serve and minister Christ to those around us, the Holy Spirit uses His Gifts to equip us in that service, not only to serve others but strengthen our own faith. This book looks at the process of obedience to Scripture in the life of the believer, the development of the Fruit of the Spirit within us and outpouring of the Gifts of the Spirit through us.

Christianity, Working It Out is a detailed investigation into the book of James and includes in-depth, practical, life applications. You will find this to be a useful guide touching not only the text but also background information, and practical help to "work out your salvation" (Phil 2:12). This is part of a "Christianity" series based on the same premise to equip the Church toward maturity in Christ.
