Empowered To Make A Difference
$7.99 Quick ViewEmpowered To Make A Difference
Spiritual life can be a difficult challenge, with seemingly impossible demands and expectations that can feel burdensome for the Christian believer. Moving from who we are to who God desires us to be, and from where we are to where He needs us to be, is no easy feat. This journey becomes easier when believers realize that God places His Spirit within them for salvation and that the Spirit transforms them into individuals who can be used to further His kingdom. Empowered to Make a Difference by Les Tripp explores the work of the Holy Spirit from salvation to commitment, and then to a deeper life. Tripp developed a passion for helping believers break free from the misconception that serving the Lord relies on their wisdom and strength. Many fail to recognize the power available to transform their lives and empower them to become fruitful members of God's family. This power comes by shifting their perspective from "being in Christ" to having "Christ in me." Tripp discusses the Spirit's role in disciple-making and how the Spirit enables us to build God's kingdom and positively impact the lives of others. The Christian life is best understood as a spiritual journey-transitioning from a self-centered life without God to a productive, empowered life that makes a difference in the lives of others. It is a journey from selfishness to discipleship, directed by the Holy Spirit to advance God's kingdom. It involves understanding God's plan for your life and discovering the strength to fulfill it.
