Book Description
This book discusses the indispensability of the fruit of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer in Jesus Christ. The author, Robert A. Haggard, beseeches the reader to seek the Person of Jesus Christ -- to know and love Him -- and to expect the fruit of His Spirit that glorifies God the Father as a byproduct of that close relationship. The author’s main purposes in this book are: 1) That it would glorify God; 2) That it would edify its readers; and 3) That it would inject life into its readers.

Book Description
Why are so many Christians stagnant in their faith? Why do we often live as though the gospel stops at the moment of conversion? The good news of Jesus doesn’t stop the moment we get saved. In fact, salvation is only the beginning of God’s work in our lives. We often view salvation as the ending point; it’s really the beginning point. The gospel of Jesus doesn’t only justify us; it sanctifies us. When we receive the Holy Spirit at salvation, an incredible work begins to happen in us: we begin to bear fruit. When we are firmly planted in the gospel and committed to growing in Christ, He produces in us the fruits of the Spirit, the marks of a true Christian. In Bearing Fruit, Robby Gallaty walks us through the life of the Christian. Biblical, intentional, and practical, Bearing Fruit points our hearts to the gracious God who called us, justified us, and is now sanctifying us by the work of his Holy Spirit.

Book Description
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit (Galatians 5:25). The Holy Spirit empowers us, guides us, and enables us to grow and endure in our relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ. Often the most misunderstood member of the Trinity, the person of the Spirit continues to attract attention today amidst church revivals and renewals. In this new edition of his classic Keep in Step with the Spirit, J. I. Packer seeks to help Christians reaffirm the biblical call to holiness and the Spirit s role in keeping our covenant with God. Packer guides us through the riches and depth of the Spirit s work, assesses versions of holiness and the charismatic life, and shows how Christ must always be at the centre of true Spirit-led ministry. A new chapter explores Christian assurance. With abiding relevance and significance, Keep in Step with the Spirit sets forth vital knowledge for healthy and joyous Christian living, through understanding and experience of God the Holy Spirit. Here is a book for every serious believer to read and re-read.

Book Description
Believers know that when we die we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won't it get boring at some point? According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God's glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time. The mysteries of providence, the hidden movements of God throughout history, and the forgotten and unnoted works of even the most obscure of God's people will be unveiled so that we can see how wise, loving, gracious, and powerful our God is. And though we will experience perfection in heaven, we will never be omniscient, which means we will always be learning more about God's glory, inspiring us to return joyful praise and thanksgiving. If your vision of heaven has been limited to clouds and harps and angels, it's time to expand that view with the truth found in this biblically based look at the afterlife.

Book Description
Bearing Fruit: The Abundant Life God Provides, is a book that explains, with scripture, insights into the meaning of Jesus' words in John 15 when he says, "Herein is my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be my disciples." This book talks of the meaning behind Hosea 14:2, which talks of how we are to take with us words, and turn to the Lord, and say unto Him, take away all iniquity... receive us graciously... that we may offer the sacrifice of our lips. This book explains that the sacrifice of our lips is to give thanks unto the name of God... Abba Father, Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit. Bearing Fruit explains ways we are to order our conversations correctly, in order to be virtuous, moral, and strong men and women of God. From the lips, to the tongue, to the ears, to the body in full, we are to glorify God by being a living human, fully willing and desirous to be partakers of God's divine nature and His divine purpose of sharing in the glory of God, and reconciling people unto the Father, through the Son Jesus Christ, within the inspiration, power and grace of Holy Spirit. This abundant life God provides is what solidly and wholly satisfies our being. This abundant life in Him allows us the grace to live a life comprised of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. To be filled with the Spirit, abiding in Him and living the abundant life, is all manifested from Bearing Fruit to the glory of God,which is fulfilling the purpose we were created for!

Book Description
“Being sensible that I am unable to do any thing without God’s help, I do humbly entreat him, by his grace, to enable me to keep these Resolutions, so far as they are agreeable to his will, for Christ’s sake. Remember to read over these Resolutions once a week. 1. Resolved, That I will do whatsoever I think to be most to the glory of God, and my own good, profit, and pleasure, in the whole of my duration; without any consideration of the time, whether now, or never so many myriads of ages hence. Resolved, to do whatever I think to be my duty, and most for the good and advantage of mankind in general. Resolved, so to do, whatever difficulties I meet with, how many soever, and how great soever. 2. Resolved, To be continually endeavouring to find out some new contrivance and invention to promote the forementioned things. 3. Resolved, If ever I shall fall and grow dull, so as to neglect to keep any part of these Resolutions, to repent of all I can remember, when I come to myself again. 4. Resolved, Never to do any manner of thing, whether in soul or body, less or more, but what tends to the glory of God, nor be, nor suffer it, if I can possibly avoid it. 5. Resolved, Never to lose one moment of time, but to improve it in the most profitable way I possibly can. 6. Resolved, To live with all my might, while I do live....
