Presence Powered Living: Building a life of intimacy and partnership with God [Paperback]

Frank DeCenso (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 30, 2007

Jesus' intimate friendship with the Father and the power He received from the Holy Spirit enabled Him to reach people with an immense variety of needs, in an incredible number of ways. Without utilizing any magical methods passed down by previous prophets or miracle workers, Jesus ministered healing and deliverance to multitudes. He did it by simply living in continuous, loving communion with His Father - a God Who loved mankind and wanted to touch men and women, boys and girls, in whatever way their individual needs demanded.

Jesus also revealed through His life and the ministry He shared with His disciples that the Father desires all followers of His to pursue an intimate, relational partnership with God, their Abba Father, resulting in this world being powerfully and radically reached with the Good News of God's kingdom.

Presence Powered Living shows us how to pursue intimacy and partnership with God so we all can make a maximum impact for His kingdom in today's culturally diverse world.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Presence Powered Living is teaming with insight and practical guidance for a life of supernatural presence and power. I encourage churches to require this book to be read and studied carefully by their congregants. I gladly recommend it."

-- Dr. J.P. Moreland - Distinguished Professor of Talbot School of Theology

"Frank DeCenso has written a gem of a book that exposes the heart of an empowered life. We live day-by-day out of our abiding relationship with Christ as we walk through his world in the routines and when facing the challenges of life. Also, he demonstrates that our ministry to others flows from an uninterrupted relationship with Christ. We all need to be confronted with these basics no matter how long we have been a Christ-follower or how much theological education we have received."

-- Dr. Eddie Gibbs - Senior Professor of Church Growth, Fuller Seminary

Be prepared to be challenged to a new and higher level of spiritual maturity in Christ. This book hits the nail on the head connecting the gap between head knowledge and heart knowledge of Jesus our savior. Enjoy!
