The Hallmark of living in the kingdom of God is obedience to God's instructions. This means we must have a heart that is ready to obey God: Heart of Obedience. Jesus was the son of God and heir of the kingdom of God, but then He still had to obey God's instruction for Him to inherited His inheritance. All you and I need in the kingdom of God will be ours only when we obey God's voice. In this book,Apostle Sharon Spikner laid down what it takes to obey God and how obedience in the life of her grandmother and mother had laid the foundation of blessing for her in life and ministry. We can all get into the center of God's will for our lives when we obey every instruction God gives us. Apostle Sharon's pray is that through this book and its companion journal every believer will develop the heart of obedience. Apostle Sharon Spikner

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate.' John Piper's contemporary classic draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.

Remaining ignorant about something means you don’t have to worry about it, feel responsible for it, or get upset by it. That may be true in some instances, but not when it comes to knowing the truth about God’s word. In fact, being ignorant about your new-creation life that you have in Christ can be very costly. This is the main reason so many believers are living defeated lives. One of the most important questions any believer in Christ should ask themselves is this: What is it that I don’t know that I don’t know? The author contends that if we say that we believe right but we are behaving wrong, we are living in deception. When we start believing right, especially when it comes to who we are in Christ, we will start behaving right. He also emphasizes that we don’t do good things to become who we will be in Christ. We do the right things because of who we already are in Christ.

How can the church be a healing force in the world? In this longtime bestseller, now revised and updated, authors Jerry Cook and Stanley C. Baldwin suggest that it is only when believers admit their own brokenness that they can love, accept, and forgive those who are hurting around them and put out the welcome mat to their community. They offer clear teaching about the church in a hurting world. As veteran leaders who practice these principles, they speak from experience, not theory. Through touching true stories and practical guidelines for connecting with fallen, sinful people, Cook and Baldwin announce the good news. The church is not broken, and it is the broken people who can change the world.
