Most of us are regular people who have good days and bad days. Our lives are radically ordinary and unexciting. That means they're the kind of lives God gets excited about. While the world worships beauty and power and wealth, God hides his glory in the simple, the mundane, the foolish, working in unawesome people, things, and places.In our day of celebrity worship and online posturing, this is a refreshing, even transformative way of understanding God and our place in his creation. It urges us to treasure a life of simplicity, to love those whom the world passes by, to work for God's glory rather than our own. And it demonstrates that God has always been the Lord of the cross--a Savior who hides his grace in unattractive, inglorious places.Your God Is Too Glorious reminds readers that while a quiet life may look unimpressive to the world, it's the regular, everyday people that God tends to use to do his most important work.

She didn't think she could forget about her past and move forward. With God and time, her past was just that—her past—but how has it shaped the woman she is today?She moved from her grandparents', who she loved dearly, to the care of her controlling, distant stepmother. In each of these situations, she had limited role models. The burns she suffered continued to direct her life years later, as she was ridiculed in school and self-conscious around her peers and boyfriend. Not only was their physical appearance troublesome to Karon, but also potential complications worried her; the doctors said she could never be pregnant because of the burns on her abdomen. Karon wondered how anyone could love her or marry her, given this prognosis. My Life Is Not My Own is an inspirational story about a woman who faces devastating self-doubt but who overcomes it through the providence of God. Read on and you too will see that God wants you to be more than conqueror.

Modern life tells us that it's up to us to forge our own identities and to make our lives significant. But the Christian gospel offers a strikingly different vision—one that reframes the way we understand ourselves, our families, our society, and God. Contrasting these two visions of life, Alan Noble invites us into a better understanding of who we are and to whom we belong.

A choice lies before you: Either waste your life or live with risk. Either sit on the sidelines or get in the game. After all, life was no cakewalk for Jesus, and he didn't promise it would be any easier for his followers. We shouldn't be surprised by resistance and persecution. Yet most of us play it safe. We pursue comfort. We spend ourselves to get more stuff. And we prefer to be entertained. We are all tempted by the idea of security, the possibility of a cozy Christianity with no hell at the end. But what kind of life is that really? It's a far cry from adventurous and abundant, from truly rich and really full, and it's certainly not the heights and the depths Jesus calls us to. Discover in these pages a foundation for fearlessness. Hear God's promise to go with you into the unknown. And let Risk Is Right help you see the joys of a faith-filled and seriously rewarding life of Jesus-dependent abandon! Risk Is Right is a significantly expanded version of a chapter previously published in the book Don't Waste Your Life (chapter 5).

In My Life is Not My Own, Dr. Bright contends that his kingdom victories had little to do with his own excellence and everything to do with becoming a ''royal slave'' to the King of kings. Dr. Bright examines a perspective common to first-century Christians. The earliest believers did not see themselves as God's hired servants; instead, they viewed themselves as ''royal slaves,'' permanent members in God's household, under His authority and called to His business. Readers will be dared to make the ultimate choice and become slaves to Jesus Christ.
