Featured Book

Living As If Heaven Matters: Preparing Now for Eternity
by Dr. David Shibley

Living as if Heaven Matters is a call to live for what matters forever. The big deal in this life is preparing for the big event in the afterlife—when we will give an account of our stewardship to Christ Himself. He addresses “crown snatchers” to avoid on earth including burnout, trivia, disunity, disloyalty and bitterness. And he encourages the reader by asserting that our progressive conforming into the image of Christ will continue until it is consummated in His return for us. Get it in our Resource Center today.
