Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Living a Holy LifeFollowing Jesus is more than believing differently. It means learning to live differently.In Living a Holy Life, the seventh book in The New Life Journey series, readers discover what the Bible means when God calls His people to holiness and how that calling becomes a practical part of everyday Christian life.Holiness is sometimes misunderstood as a list of religious rules, an impossible standard of perfection, or an outward appearance designed to prove our spirituality. But biblical holiness begins somewhere much deeper: we belong to God.Because He has called us His own, He begins transforming us from the inside out.This book explores how God works through His Word, His Spirit, and His grace to change our hearts, renew our minds, and teach us to leave behind the patterns of our former lives. Holiness is not something we accomplish through human willpower. It is the continuing work of God in a surrendered life.But transformation also requires our response.As followers of Jesus, we learn to resist temptation, make different choices, develop new habits, and bring every area of life under His direction. Our words, relationships, attitudes, bodies, entertainment, integrity, private decisions, and treatment of others all become places where Christ can be seen in us.Living a Holy Life addresses practical questions such as: What does it actually mean to be holy?Can ordinary people really live a holy life?How does the Holy Spirit help us change?What should happen to the habits and patterns of our old life?How does holiness affect our everyday choices?What happens when we fail along the way?The Christian life is not about becoming perfect overnight. It is about continuing to surrender to God and allowing Him to make us more like Jesus.There will be areas where growth happens quickly and others where transformation takes time. There will be victories, struggles, lessons, corrections, and moments when we must get back up and keep walking. Through it all, God continues His work in those who remain surrendered to Him.You were not saved merely to leave something behind.You were saved to become someone new.Living a Holy Life will help new and growing believers understand how to walk out the faith they have received and pursue a life increasingly shaped by the character of Jesus Christ.The New Life Journey is an eight-book discipleship series designed to lead readers step by step from discovering God and understanding Jesus Christ to responding to the gospel and growing into a Spirit-filled life of committed discipleship.
