The God of the universe - the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor - loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn’t working harder at a list of do's and don'ts - it's falling in love with God.
A follow up to the profound message of Crazy Love, Pastor Francis Chan offers a compelling invitation to understand, embrace, and follow the Holy Spirit's direction in our lives. "In the name of the Father, the Son, and ... the Holy Spirit." We pray in the name of all three, but how often do we live with an awareness of only the first two?
How could a loving God send people to Hell? Will people have a chance after they die to believe in Jesus and go to heaven? With a humble respect for God’s Word, Francis Chan and Preston Sprinkle address the deepest questions you have about eternal destiny. They’ve asked the same questions. Like you, sometimes they just don’t want to believe in Hell. But, as they write, “We cannot afford to be wrong on this issue.” This is not a book about who is saying what. It’s a book about what God says.
You were made to make disciples. Jesus gave His followers a command: “Follow Me.” And a promise: “I will equip you to find others to follow Me.” We were made to make disciples. Designed for use in discipleship relationships and other focused settings, Multiply will equip you to carry out Jesus’ ministry. Each of the 24 sessions in the audio book corresponds with an online video at www.multiplymovement.com, where New York Times best-selling author David Platt joins Francis Chan in guiding you through each part of Multiply.
Your marriage is more than a sacred covenant with another person. It is a spiritual discipline designed to help you know God better, trust him more fully, and love him more deeply. What if God's primary intent for your marriage isn't to make you happy...but holy? Sacred Marriage doesn't just offer techniques to make a marriage happier. It does contain practical tools, but what married Christians most need is help in becoming holier husbands and wives.
It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily...BUT WHO DO YOU KNOW WHO LIVES LIKE THAT? DO YOU?

In this new audiobook, David Platt, author of the New York Times best-selling book Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream, contends that multitudes of people around the world culturally think they are Christians yet biblically are not followers of Christ.
Based on over three decades of counseling, as well as scientific and biblical research, Dr. Emerson Eggerichs and his wife, Sarah, have already taken the Love & Respect message across America and are changing the way couples talk to, think about, and treat each other. What do you want for your marriage? Want some peace? Want to feel close? Want to feel valued? Want to experience marriage the way God intended? Then why not try some Love and Respect.
A truly fulfilling marriage involves two people focusing on each other's needs rather than their own. Lysa TerKeurst, president of The Proverbs 31 Ministry, has written a practical guide for all spouses that will open their eyes to the needs, desires, and longings of the others. She offers eight essential criteria for capturing the heart of your spouse, with creative tips on how to accomplish them.
In the best-selling Lies Women Believe, Nancy exposes these areas of deception most commonly believed by Christian women - lies about God, sin, priorities, marriage and family, emotions, and more. She then sheds light on how we can be delivered from bondage and set free to walk in God's grace, forgiveness, and abundant life. Nancy offers the most effective weapon to counter and overcome Satan's lies: God's truth!
You have an enemy...and he's dead set on destroying all you hold dear and keeping you from experiencing abundant life in Christ. What's more, his approach to disrupting your life and discrediting your faith isn't general or generic, not a one-size-fits-all. It's specific. Personalized. Targeted. So this audiobook is your chance to strike back. With prayer. With a weapon that really works.
Few subjects are as compelling-or as endlessly variable-as love and marriage. The Bible is filled with references to husbands and wives, from the story of Adam and Eve to advice in the New Testament, each open to interpretation. In The Meaning of Marriage, Timothy Keller, pastor of New York's Redeemer Presbyterian Church and bestselling author of The Reason for God, uses the scriptures as his guide to show readers what God's call to marriage is, and why this is such a powerful call.
What if being in love isn't a good enough reason to get married? What if dating isn't about finding "the one," but about serving the one who loves you most? Don't get married until you listen to this audiobook. In The Sacred Search, Gary Thomas challenges you to think beyond finding a "soul mate" and to look for a "sole mate" - someone who will walk with you on your spiritual journey. After all, if you don't know why to marry, you won't know who to marry.
Anxiety is at an all time high, but there's a prescription for dealing with it. Max Lucado invites listeners into a study of Philippians 4:6-7, where the Apostle Paul admonishes the followers of Christ, "Do not be anxious about anything...." Philippians 4:6 encourages the believer to "be anxious for nothing". As Lucado states, the Apostle Paul seems to leave little leeway here. "Be anxious of nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zero."
In the midst of folding laundry, coordinating carpool schedules, and breaking up fights, many parents get lost. Feeling pressure to do everything "right" and raise up "good" children, it's easy to lose sight of our ultimate purpose as parents in the quest for practical tips and guaranteed formulas.
Drs. Cloud and Townsend help you understand the friction points and even the serious hurts in your marriage - and move beyond them to mutual care, respect, affirmation, and intimacy.
A countless number of marriages right now consist of two people just going through the motions. Thomas insists that this pattern can be reversed when husbands and wives learn to cherish one another in proven, loving, and everyday actions and words. Ultimately, Cherish can help bring hope, light, and life into any marriage.
This volume includes: "When God Doesn't Listen" by Francis Chan; "Submission through Prayer" by James MacDonald; "Waiting On God" by John Ortberg: and "Why We Shouldn't Give Up On Prayer" by Bill Hybels.
Marriage is great, but it's not forever. It's until death do us part.
Then come eternal rewards or regrets depending on how we spent our lives. In his latest book, Francis Chan joins together with his wife Lisa to address the question many couples wonder at the altar: "How do I have a healthy marriage?" Setting aside typical topics on marriage, Francis and Lisa dive into Scripture to understand what it means to have a relationship that satisfies the deepest parts of our souls. In the same way Crazy Love changed the way we saw our personal relationship with God, You and Me Forever: Marriage in Light of Eternity will radically shift the way we see one of the most important relationships in our life. Jesus was right. We have it all backwards. The way to have a great marriage is by not focusing on marriage.
Whether you are single, dating or married, You and Me Forever will help you discover the adventure that you were made for and learn how to thrive in it. 100% of the net profits from You and Me Forever: Marriage in Light of Eternity will go towards providing food, shelter and rehabilitation for thousands of orphaned children and exploited women in partnership with global charities.
This book is amazing. There is lessons for everyone. I encourage anyone that plans on getting married or having kids to read or listen to this book. A great eye opener to where we should focus our life.

This book was a struggle to listen to, not because of the material and how it is presented, but because I know it is the truth. The 1st chapter scared me, so I had to set it aside a day or 2 and pray and ask God to prepare me for its content and help me to apply His truth to my life. I hope my spouse is as driven or more driven than I would like to be, but if he is not, it does not relieve me of my responsibility...for I will answer to God for myself. I believe this book shares God's heart for marriage and family. As Christians, we need to quit playing and get busy with God's business! Thank You Francis and Lisa

This is not your traditional marriage book. There are no checklists and formulas but one clear, strong message about the gospel. That being said, it's the best marriage advice I've read in 15 years.
This is also not just for married people. The majority of the content is applicable regardless of marital status.
The fact that it's narrated by the authors makes it like listening to a podcast. Much better than other audibles I've purchased in this regard.
Highly recommend for those who are ready to be inspired and challenged (but I did also go buy a hard copy because I wanted to really underline, asterisk and mark this up!)

I'm a single Christ-follower. This book encourages me all the more to focus on the mission Lord Jesus has given: to make disciples. And to live in radical faith, radical obedience and radical love to God.. It also convinces me even further to remain single unless I meet someone who shares the same love and passion I have for God, for people and for His mission. One who'd help me be more effective in my mission.

Regardless of marital status this book will give you the best picture of a biblically focused marriage that is rare in the Christian Church today.

This book points you back to Christ and his goodness and faithfulness. It is a convicting read, but well-written with love and gentleness in mind. It definitely got the wheels in my head turning, but leaves me wanting to more like Christ. I would recommend this book to others!

This Jesus first approach is the best book on marriage, relationship and life I have found. The key is Jesus.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There were many moments in which I felt "called out" on thoughts and beliefs I have held without even realizing it. I would totally recommend this book and look forward to sharing it with whoever will listen. Get this book! My husband and I are excited to hear the Chans at a local church's marriage conference coming up this week. Can't wait!

Great content. One of the few preachers talking about having less and doing more. A much needed message for our time!

The most challenging spiritual development book I've read in a while. Sobering in the best possible way. Truly a great read for anyone regardless of marital status.

Just incredible. The perspective given in this book really have you reflecting on your marriage. It is more God focused than other marriage books which is great as it therefore offers something different. It is a heavy book and I feel it is something to come back to a few times and each time you will take more away from it. Highly recommend.
Great challenge for any marriage - are you storing up treasures on earth or in heaven :-)
I am a 30yr old male, currently in a relationship and this book has encouraged me and helped me push forward into the role of becoming a Christ like husband. I'd thoroughly recommend this book to all Christians dating and those married if all ages. Even more so those who have been married a long time and maybe feel their Christian walk has become stale
Not only great for couples but a fantastic reminder for all people to put God first as he is the only one who can meet out needs and fill our hearts!
