Are you Experiencing New Life? You were probably told that salvation is a free gift. But trying to live up to what you think God demands feels like anything but a gift. The problem? You're basing your Christianity in the Old Testament—making your faith a law-based religion. But the New Covenant, which God has put in place through Jesus' death, changes everything. Bestselling author Bob George opens up the Scriptures and guides you through truth that will make God's plan clear. You'll be able to see how, in your life... Nothing could be better than experiencing the fullness of God's plan for you. This fullness is yours because Jesus changes everything.
At age 36, Bob George came to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Two years later he left his successful business to become involved in full time ministry. With the emphasis on "full-time," Bob began to experience the heartache of losing his first love, Jesus Christ. His resulting search for truth led Bob to the love and acceptance of God that was there all along.
Years of ministry, in both personal and group settings, fostered in Bob's heart a passion to communicate the love and grace of God to hurting people throughout the nation and the world. Thus, in 1977, Bob George founded Dallas-based People to People Ministries.
For many years, Bob hosted People to People, a daily radio broadcast. Connecting with listeners across the continent on his live, daily radio broadcast, Bob offered real answers for real life as he addressed common questions as well as the tough issues of today, directing callers to the centrality of "Christ in you, your only hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).
Bob George is the author of the best-selling book, Classic Christianity, with an estimated 650,000 copies in print worldwide, in 27 languages. Bob also has authored several other books including Growing in Grace, Faith That Pleases God, as well as numerous Bible study guides.
Bob and his wife Amy, author of Goodbye Is Not Forever, live in Dallas, Texas. They have two children and four grandchildren.
Embracing God's unconditional love for you entils coming to terms with who Jesus Christ is, why He came and what Hes death and resurrection accompllished historically and for each of us individually. This wasn't just a religious scene, it was an historical crossroads from the Old Covenant/Ten Commandments to the New Covenant of God's love, mercy and grace to us through ALL that Jesus accomplished for us on that Cross. So many in teh church today are bound up in a mish mash of trying to hold onto The Law, while at the same time trying to live in God's grace. DThat is an effort in futility b/c it's NOT what we were meant to do. Having a better understanding of the differences and distinctives of both Covenants makes it much easier to see where all the sin-focused, "I'm just a sinner saved by grace" mentality comes from. Learn from what Christ came to set you FREE and how you stand before God NOT on teh basis of your own obedience! I highly recommend reading Bob George's book Classic Christianity and following it up with Jesus Changes Everything. Know a new believer, I'd give them copies of both of these books!
The author put it in a very clear and a very easy way to undestand how we sometimes as christians fall easily into the so called religion trap. We think by praying more, read more bible, involve in more ministries will entitle us to god's love for us . That's not what Grace is all about, it's all about God stooping down and reaching out for us in all his compassion and mercy and love. Bob george certainly had experienced God's Grace that he was able to explain what he was going through when he was an exhausted 'legalistic' Christian. One of the best books ive ever read about the revelation of Christ's Love for us
