Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Why do some people thrive in the midst of great challenges, and others don't? The answer is grit: the strength at our core that fuels a scrappy response to threats, fear, confusion, and pain. Best-selling books and viral TED Talks have launched the study of resilience into the stratosphere, touting grit as the tool for personal and professional success. But Rick Lawrence, ministry leader, podcast host, and author of The Jesus-Centered Life, has discovered gaping holes in the conversation about grit. Two factors that are central to growing a gritty core have remained under the radar: 1) A passion for something higher than yourself, and 2) Everyday life practices that help us nurture the strength we need to move through whatever life throws at us. Spiritual Grit explores the foundation for our perseverance in life, then offers an extensive menu of everyday life practices that Jesus modeled in his ministry. Over and over, Jesus was determined to develop core strength in the people who sought his help--even as he cared for them, he injected hardship into their lives rather than removed it. He did it by inviting risk, vulnerability, courage, and responsibility. Lawrence offers a life-changing, practical pathway toward greater endurance, confidence, and character. Spiritual Grit delivers: - Ways to access the strength needed to live a resilient life, through a dependent relationship with Jesus - Biblical stories of those who grew a grit backbone through their interactions with Jesus - A menu of life habits that fertilize grit, plus a method for identifying habits that undermine it - A way for readers to assess their own spiritual grit Without Jesus, grit is just a gimmick. With Jesus, grit can infuse the world--and our lives--with hope.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. What does following Jesus mean, anyway? What if the lives we think we are living are actually disconnected from who Jesus really is? This Jesus-centered resource for teens is about rediscovering Jesus. For around 2,000 years, Jesus has been at the center of pretty much everything, and no one has had a bigger influence on daily lives than Jesus. Most of us think we have a pretty good idea of who Jesus is and what he did. Sometimes the people we know the least are the people we're around the most. Isn't that weird? We're convinced that we really know them, because they've always been part of our lives. But we need to get reintroduced to them, because we don't really know them as well as we think we do. This highly interactive, 40-day teen devotional helps young adults take a fresh look at what they think they already know about Jesus, so they can grow in their love and friendship with him and live the life they didn't know was possible. Get ready for an exciting, life-changing adventure.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Explores the revolutionary idea that risk is a foundational requirement, not an optional step, of the true faith walk Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it. --Matthew 10:39Christians are longing for more life in their lives, a sense that they're more present to Jesus and to their own story in the everyday. They're looking for the answer to the deepest question of human experience: How do I find the freedom I crave, and become the person I long to be? Too often, though, they're scared to risk too much to find the answer--so they simply continue to lead lives of quiet desperation.Rick Lawrence says that's exactly the problem. We've seen too much. We know too much. And so we manage our risk so well that we choke off the very fuel that our soul needs to stay alive. In fact, risk should be a primary aspect of our relationship with Jesus, not the thing we avoid.In this book, Lawrence argues that if we pay attention to the way Jesus related to people, we discover that he asked every person he ever met to put their skin in the game--invest part of themselves. Only then did they find the life they always longed for.Lawrence asks eight key questions, including: - Will you embrace your shame? - Will you receive grace? - Will you confront your fears? - Will you wait, even when all hope is lost? With a vigorous, fast-paced, and conversational style, he uses these questions plus stories straight from Scripture and pop-culture corollaries to explore the kinds of risks we find in our lives today and how to stop waiting and start going all in for Jesus.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. There's a surging hunger among teenagers for Jesus. New research shows that they want a clearer understanding of what Jesus really said and did, and how faith in matters in their lives. In fact, that desire is so deep, it's #1 on their wish list for what they'd like to talk about at church. But are we doing that? Even though we assume that everything we do in youth ministry is about Jesus, the evidence is clear: That's not what our students say they're experiencing. So what would a youth ministry look like if it shifted toward a passionate, persistent, and permeating focus on drawing students into a closer orbit around Jesus? Inside the pages of Jesus-Centered Youth Ministry, you'll discover the foundation for a ministry that is Jesus-centered, along with the bricks for building it. You'll discover that not only is it possible to create this kind of ministry, it's also essential that you pursue this path. Eight years after his book was first published, introducing the language and structure of a new way of doing youth ministry, author and longtime Group Magazine editor Rick Lawrence has completely rewritten and revised Jesus-Centered Youth Ministry. It's packed with new insight, new research, and dozens of field-tested ideas for planting and nurturing a ministry environment that is Jesus-magnetic. Help satisfy teenagers' hunger for Jesus in richly nourishing and sustaining ways by shifting the orbit of your ministry.…
