BECOMING THE PERSON GOD WANTS YOU TO BE
Have you ever tried to break a bad habit? By sheer willpower you set your mind to overcome it... but suddenly, there is it again! Do you ever have thoughts rise up in your mind that would make you blush if they were suddenly broadcast over a loudspeaker?
Experiences like this express the gap that exists between waht we are and what we want to be. This book is all about bridging that gap! In a vivid series of images and parables, the Christian life is depicted not as a drear duty, but as an adveture of faith- living each day by the guidance and power of Christ's indwelling presence.
The Renewed Mind touches on five major areas of spiritual experience:
- Dependence on God
- Patience
- Facing challenges with the authority of Christ
- Discipline
- Prayer
Includes new selections from Larry Christenson's other memorable teachings- Back to Square One and The Notre Dame Football Talk- plus new study questions.
"Do not conform and longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." -Romans 12:2
