Reminds us how powerful the Church can be and calls this generation to passionately pursue God's vision for His beloved Bride.

Addressing a variety of views on hell, the Bible, and the character of God, Francis Chan and Preston Sprinkle offer an eloquent response to the recent media storm surrounding questions of eternal destiny.

Powerful.When is the last time someone used that word to describe you?It doesn't make sense that Almighty God would have children characterized by fear and insecurity. He put His Spirit in us so we could be known for our power (Acts 1:8; 2 Tim. 1:7). Sadly, most believers and churches are known for talent or intellect rather than supernatural power. What's worse is that we're okay with it.Could it be that we've forgotten the One who distinguishes us from every religion and cult in the world?Through solid scriptural support and compelling narrative, breakthrough author Francis Chan returns us to the Holy Spirit as the Bible describes Him. He reminds us that we were not created and saved merely to survive our time on earth. Chan contends that we've ignored the Spirit and are reaping the disastrous results.It's time for the beloved church of Jesus Christ to reverse the trend of neglect. Let's pursue the Spirit-filled life of effectiveness God desires and we desire.

在基督教里面，"门徒"一词常常被提及。那么到底什么是门徒呢？《马太福音》4章19节，主耶稣说："来跟从我！我要叫你们得人如得鱼一样。"跟从耶稣的人，就是耶稣的门徒，而耶稣应许要装备他的门徒，要叫他们"得人如得鱼"。回到圣经来看，"带门徒"是耶稣给每一个门徒一生的呼召，而不是一个按部就班的门徒培训课程计划，也不是一个完全推给牧师或者事工负责人的任务。本书带领每一位读者返璞归真，回归圣经源头，探寻门徒真义，并以系统学习实践圣经真理的方式，装备每一个门徒活出"带门徒"的呼召。

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 spend our lives. In his latest book, Francis Chan joins and his wife Lisa address the question many couples wonder at the altar: How do I have a great 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. You and Me Forever will radically shift the way we see one of the most important relationships in our life. Jesus was right, 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.教导夫妇如何相处、如何享受幸福婚姻的书籍有很多，这本书却不是其中之一。那些书确实可以给出一些有用的原则，但它们的问题是：让你觉得拥有一个幸福的家庭就是基督信仰的目标。这样一来，把首要的事情（如上帝的荣耀和他所赐的使命）就被放在了次要的位置上。这等于是拿永远的福分去换取眼前的幸福。这本书要告诉你的恰恰不是这样，而是教你如何心里"装着永生来生活，彼此相爱到永远"。

A special Spanish edition of the New York Times bestseller that dares us to experience God's crazy, relentless, all-powerful love--and then respond with radical, sacrificial love towards others.

La unidad de la iglesia no es algo opcional. Aunque los cristianos valoran la teología y aprecian la santidad, muchos de ellos no quieren nada que ver con la unidad de la Iglesia. Sin embargo, Dios tiene alta estima por las tres cosas. Por tanto, debe haber una manera de terminar con las divisiones que entristecen al Espíritu Santo sin sacrificar la verdad ni abrazar el pecado. En medio de un mundo que se fragmenta en sus conflictos, la Novia de Cristo debe promover el amor hasta que alcancemos la integridad de la unidad que trae avivamiento. Hasta la unidad nos muestra que: -A Dios le aflige la división en la Iglesia, por eso no podemos permanecer indiferentes -La unidad requiere un nivel de humildad que solo posibilita el Espíritu -El poder y el testimonio de la Iglesia dependen de nuestra unidad -La unidad tiene un costo, pero implica una gran bendición Que Dios levante un ejército de personas llenas del Espíritu Santo en todas las denominaciones, deseosas de luchar por la unidad con toda humildad y mansedumbre.
