On This Solid Rock: Jesus

Supremacy, Sufficiency, Supplication & Service

By: Dr. Kent Haralson

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A book to answer the questions of:

• Can Christ really change lives?
• Can He give peace, joy, and happiness?
• Does knowing Christ give meaning, hope, and purpose to life?

Christ changes lives. Knowing Him gives stability to lives.
This very practical six-chapter book tells us that:

• Jesus is the answer to the stress you find in your life,
• Jesus is the answer to the questions of origin, purpose, ethics and destiny,
• Jesus is the answer to how to deal with unbelievers
• Jesus is the answer to dealing with suffering,
• Jesus is the answer to dealing with believers and prayer,
• Jesus is the answer to why other people matter,

The prayers of most Christians center on physical needs. In this book you will learn how to focus rather on praying for others to have:

• The knowledge of God's will in their lives, so that…
• They would live a life pleasing to the Lord in knowledge, fruit-bearing and strength. That combined with …
• Great follow-through (endurance, patience, joy and thanksgiving), results in
• An intimate relationship with God and genuine joy.

Then for those in ministry (which is all Christians), in six short verses of Chapter1, he gives eight aspects of that ministry:

• the source of the ministry,
• the spirit of the ministry,
• the suffering of the ministry,
• the scope of the ministry,
• the subject of the ministry,
• the style of the ministry,
• the sum of the ministry, and
• the strength of the ministry.

God really means for the body of Christ, the church, to experience some of the suffering he experienced so that when we offer the Christ of the cross to people, they see the Christ of the cross in us.

Ministry to people is what is important. Everything else, including property and programs, is secondary to ministering to people. This book will show you how Paul interacted with “believers” and “those who are not yet believers” giving you practical steps to follow.

Chapter 5 is a virtual “how to win friends and influence people – for Christ” filled with practical idea mined from the Scriptures. The book closes with a chapter on the power of speech (words) to accomplish great things in the lives of others through the power of prayer (dull, listless, routine prayers ae unanswered prayers).

In the unfolding drama of a cosmic harvest of souls spoken of in Matthew 9 and Revelation 14, it is important for us to see our role clearly, to know our part in what God is wanting to accomplish in His world.

We will never be truly happy until we live for something other than ourselves, something grander than we are, some magnificent obsession
