The Ragamuffin Gospel: Good News for the Bedraggled, Beat-Up, and Burnt Out Aug 19, 2008

by Brennan Manning

( 2,665 )

$6.99

Are you bedraggled, beat-up, burnt-out?

Most of us believe in God’s grace—in theory. But somehow we can’t seem to apply it in our daily lives. We continue to see Him as a small-minded bookkeeper, tallying our failures and successes on a score sheet.

Yet God gives us His grace, willingly, no matter what we’ve done. We come to Him as ragamuffins—dirty, bedraggled, and beat-up. And when we sit at His feet, He smiles upon us, the chosen objects of His “furious love.”

Brennan Manning’s now-classic meditation on grace and what it takes to access it—simple honesty—has changed thousands of lives. Now with a Ragamuffin’s thirty-day spiritual journey guide, it will change yours, too.

Includes a 30-Day Spiritual Journey Guide!

“Brennan Manning does a masterful job of blowing the dust off of shop-worn theology and allowing God’s grace to do what only God’s grace can do—amaze.”
-Max Lucado, Bestselling author of The Gift for All People

Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging Apr 13, 2015

by Brennan Manning, Jon Foreman

( 1,146 )

$10.92

Are you struggling to accept God’s love?
We’ve bought into the lie that we are worthy of God’s love only when our lives are going well. But when life begins to fall through the cracks and things become less-than-perfect, we scramble to present a good front to the world—and to God.

God longs for us to deeply believe and know that He loves us and accepts us as we are. He calls for us to remove our mask and establish an honest and deep relationship with Him. When we are our true selves, we can finally claim our identity as His own—Abba’s child.

Let go of the pressure of an impostor lifestyle and lean into the life-changing wonder of a truly loving relationship with God. Abba’s Child will light the way to freely accepting your belovedness and being renewed by the reassurance of our Father’s deep care for you—regardless of how perfect your life isn’t.

“Honest. Genuine. Creative. God hungry. These words surface when I think of the writings of Brennan Manning. Read him for yourself—you’ll see what I mean!” —Max Lucado, New York Times bestselling author

“I pray that Brennan Manning and the timeless voices . . . in this book might offer you hope. May they remind you that you are loved by the Father-Creator Himself. May they sing and speak into your life against the voices that tell you otherwise.” —Jon Foreman, lead singer of Switchfoot

El impostor que vive en mí: Descubre la libertad de ser aceptado y amado (Spanish Edition) Apr 20, 2020

by Brennan Manning

( 6 )

$9.99

Muchos cristianos han caído en la mentira de que merecemos el amor de Dios solo cuando nuestra vida va bien. Si nuestra familia está feliz o si nuestro trabajo es significativo, la vida es un éxito. Pero cuando ella comienza a desmoronarse y pecados vergonzosos amenazan con revelar nuestra “no tan perfecta” identidad, nos esforzamos por mantener una buena apariencia frente al mundo… y frente a Dios. Nos cubrimos y escondemos hasta que podamos arreglar la máscara de la perfección y nos veamos bien otra vez. Tristemente, es entonces cuando nos preguntamos por qué nos faltan relaciones profundas y una fe apasionada. Pero todo ese tiempo Dios nos llama a sacarnos la máscara y que nos acerquemos confiadamente a Él. El Señor desea que sepamos en lo profundo de nuestro ser que Él nos ama y nos acepta tal como somos. Cuando somos nosotros mismos, podemos finalmente reclamar nuestra identidad como hijos de Abba y experimentar su real deleite en nuestra verdadera identidad. Brennan Manning anima al lector a dejar ir el estilo de vida impostor y aceptar libremente nuestra identidad como hijos del Padre celestial. En Él hallamos vida, nuestra pasión es avivada y nuestra unión con Él se torna nuestro gran placer.

The Signature of Jesus Jan 5, 2011

by Brennan Manning

( 173 )

$10.99

The Signature of Jesus challenges the gospel of "cheap grace" and calls the church to radical discipleship. With passion and boldness, author Brennan Manning invites readers to risk living life as Jesus lived—committed to simplicity, purity of heart, and obedience to the gospel.

As a radical alternative this book is offered to Christians who want to live by faith and not by mere “religion,” for those who recognize that many of the burning theological issues in the church today are neither burning nor theological; who see Christianity neither as a moral code or a belief system but as a love affair; who have not forgotten that they are followers of a crucified Christ; who know that following him means living dangerously; who want to live the gospel without compromise; who have no greater desire than to have his signature written on the pages of their lives.

“Behold,” Jesus proclaims, “I stand at the door and knock.” You may have already met him at the door…but do you truly know him? Have you been transformed by His furious, passionate, unexplainable love? Join Brennan Manning, the bestselling author of The Ragamuffin Gospel, on a personal journey to experience Christ’s love and live with His passion.
