Let God Change Your Life: How to Know and Follow Jesus [Kindle Edition]

Greg Laurie (Author)

Book Description

Evangelist Greg Laurie calls all Christians back to radical New Testament living in his latest offering, Let God Change Your Life.

 

Imagine what it would have been like to be a follower of Jesus; first-century Christians walked away from their old lives just to be where He was. What they learned, sitting at His feet, was discipleship. And when His work on earth was done, first-century Christians took His words and example and spread out, teaching the gospel to everyone.

            The good news is that we, too, can participate in this lifestyle. Laurie drills it down in three simple ideas: get to know Jesus, follow His plan for discipleship, and use it to tell others what we know. Laurie’s tone is clear, direct, and biblical.

Radical Christian Living is Really Normal Christian Living (from the back cover)

What we often believe is normal Christian living is very different, in many ways, from what the Bible teaches. Laurie says that if you find the Christian experience dull and unfulfilling then maybe it's time for you to examine Jesus' teaching regarding discipleship.

Evangelist Greg Laurie calls all Christians back to radical. The blueprint is simply: Get to know Jesus, follow His plans for discipleship, and share God's truth with others.

Three key points are expanded on:

1. How to know God--and how He will change your life
2. Discipleship--the commitment, the cost, and the spiritual growth
3. Making Him known--sharing the gospel and making disciples

Sharing personal stories from his own life (his salvation story brought tears to my eyes) and others, Laurie writes in an engaging and compelling way while he teaches us what it means to truly live the Christian life the way God intended.

If your Christian life seems flat and boring, then reenergize it. Pick up a copy of Greg Laurie's book, LET GOD CHANGE YOUR LIFE today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Laurie Points us to GOD June 9, 2012

By John3:16

Format:Kindle Edition

What an amazing life changing book from one of America's best pastors. Everyone should read this book and seek GOD as Laurie suggests. Good sound Christian doctrine without any fluff.
If you don't already have one, download a good Bible then download this book and read them both. No one is promised tomorrow. Accept JESUS as your Lord and Savior before it is to late.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let God Change Your Life by Greg Laurie August 24, 2011

By Ryan J. Rotman VINE™ VOICE

Format:Paperback

Greg Laurie has written a great book; Let God Change Your Life: How to Know and Follow Jesus. This is definitely not a book for just non-believers or new believers. This is a book that every believer should read. Laurie challenges us to take a long, hard look at the Christian life we're living. "What often is perceived as the Christian life is, in many ways, not what the Bible teaches. Are you really living the Christian life as Jesus meant for you to live it? If your Christian experience feels dull and unfulfilling, then it's time to seriously examine Jesus' teaching regarding discipleship. Radical Christian living is really normal Christian living." There is so much more to this life that we're living than the way we're living it. It causes me to seriously look into my own life and reexamine how I'm living my own life in light of how God truly called me to live it. Laurie takes on three aspects of our relationship with and following Christ;

* How to Know God
* Discipleship
* Making Him Known

Laurie takes us on a logical progression of how we should be living our lives. He begins right where it's needed the most; the heart. What we find throughout the pages of this book is how to live the Christian life based in the Bible. Laurie's book is a challenge and one that shouldn't be taken lightly. "'Are you a laborer in the harvest?' Laurie asks. 'The complainers are many. The observers are many. The spectators are many. The critics are many. But the laborers are few. We need laborers in the harvest. Will you become one?' Let God Change Your Life is a bold challenge to Christians everywhere to rethink their lives in terms of dynamic New Testament living."
