Book Description

May 9, 2000

When your world comes crashing down around you there is only one place of safety-the Refuge. Convinced that many Christians are already experiencing tough times, Jim Bakker offers hope to believers, showing how to make it through the dark nights and difficult days ahead. Security will not be in money or materialism; it will be in Christ and His family, working to overcome the obstacles in life. Drawing upon lessons he learned the hard way, Bakker encourages Christians to gather together in one accord, to bear one another's burdens, to open our hearts to a fresh outpouring of God's supernatural presence in our midst. His call for "first-century Christianity" in the twenty-first century is radical, challenging, thoroughly biblical, and inspiring.

5.0 out of 5 stars Refuge is Must Reading for serious Christians, May 13, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Refuge: The Joy of Christian Community in a Torn-Apart World (Hardcover)
Jim Bakker has hit the nail on the head with this new book. He gives frightening scenarios of the calamities that we are all heading toward and practical, Biblical guidance on how to deal with them both before they get here, and once they arrive. The answer is for Christians to come together as a true family loving one another and bearing each other's burdens. But don't think that this is the same old stuff you have heard before! Bakker gives a totally new take ( or a 2000 year old take) on this concept. Once you read this book, you will not view the Church the same as you did before. You will see it as a vital and exciting organism that God has a very special and specific purpose for. I highly reccomend this Book!

It's amazing to see that finaly their is a book that talks about the power of unity. when not only the church but mankind come together in one spirit can make a change and a difference in life. To read and imagen that if we as humans can only come together as one, and realize that the lone-ranger era is over. The Refuge is a tremendous book that made me realize that only united in one as a Nation, as the church but most importanly as humans we can make a difference in this world.
