24 Days Until Kickoff



                                        

On September 13 we begin a 30 week Bible Engagement Experience. Here’s why.  

The most important thing about a human being is what he or she believes.  What you believe drives everything.   It is impossible to live inconsistent with what you believe.  Let me say that again.  

It is impossible to live inconsistent with what you believe.  

That means that what I do is what I actually believe.   I find that that to be jolting.   No one lives inconsistently with what they actually believe.  Everyone lives inconsistently what they say they believe.  

Therefore I encourage with all the encouragement I can give you to decide to be “all in” with BELIEVE.  

Take a moment to reread the quote above from Pollster (and Christian) George Gallup Jr.  Does the Bible form the beliefs which actually drive your actions?  If you are a long time believer, doing BELIEVE these 30 weeks will challenge you past head knowledge to the kind of BELIEVE knowledge that drives what you think and do in deeper way than ever before.   You will be challenged toward a deeper kind of joy, a more substantial kind of love, a more loving kind of patience and more.  If you are a beginner in the faith, BELIEVE will be an introduction to what Christianity actually is.   It will give you a solid foundation for a vibrant life journey with God in Christ.  

Here’s why I think you should buy the two books below.  

The BELIEVE book is almost all scripture.   The scriptures are selected by a variety of scholars as the most pertinent for each topic.  AND each section has an introduction that’s sets up what you will read in it’s context.  Yes, you can just look up the scriptures on your own with out buying the book, but if you’re like me you will find that you won’t get to it.   You won’t do it.  With the scripture book it’s all there right in front of you.  

The THINK ACT BELIEVE LIKE JESUS book is the accompanying devotional guide which will give you the needed life application insights and challenges that go with what you’ve read.   

This is an opportunity to do what so many of us never get to, taking the intentional time necessary for personal life transformation.   But to do that you will need to invest in reading and believing the Bible.   These two resources will help you do that
