Climbing Higher: Living For Jesus One Step At A Time
Lots of people talk about their faith, including Christians, describing themselves as followers of Christ, children of God. Many had quite emotional experiences when they crossed the line with Jesus. Others made their choice and decision in a quiet, thoughtful, heartfelt moment.
Both experiences are usually real, chosen and life-changing. . . for awhile. But many times the excitement and passion wear off. Or people think that their first experience was really the high point of their spirituality and so lapse into a casual, "go to Jesus as I need Him" kind of life. You know, attend church on the weekend, pray at meals sometimes, help out around the facility and give a little something or a lot in the offering plate or box on the way out.
Wherever you are on your faith journey and relationship with Christ, you can benefit from Climbing Higher. In this book, Gary helps people not only take a next forward step in their spiritual journey but also learn how to sustain that commitment through thinking of it as a walk, a long, but very meaningful, purposeful walk.
In fact, he shows how the Bible also describes one's relationship with Christ and process of following Him as different kinds of walks, but all with the same goal, to become more like Jesus, follow His example and grow in spiritual and emotional maturity.
If you've never had next steps like this shown and explained to you or perhaps your Christian life feels pretty stagnate and you're not sure how to experience more, Climbing Higher is for you. Gary will introduce you to those concepts and verses in the Bible about becoming a disciple of Christ, following Him not just in the spiritual moments of life, but in the everyday, at the coffee shop, as a parent or spouse, as a community leader or just a good neighbor.
Jesus modeled this kind of relationship life and said that His example was what we need to use to be the person we were intended to be.
If you were looking for deep, intense, verse by verse analysis of Scripture, this isn't the book for you. But if you what significant practical applications for Christian growth, all based on a strong Biblical foundation, then you'll love and significant spiritual growth that can last you a life time and be a foundation for more.
