Promises for a Jesus Freak

by D.C. Talk

Throughout history, Jesus freaks have valued God's Word above food, water, clothing, comfort, safety--their very lives. Why? They understand the power of His promises to comfort them, strengthen them, correct them, inspire them, and transform them into the person God wants them to be. Are you ready to be a Jesus Freak? Then you got to know God's Word. And here is one small place to start. Discover God's wisdom and promises for your life when you need strength to overcome temptation, the power to face persecution, the words to testify for Jesus, the faith to continue your walk with Jesus when others have fallen away. Jesus Freaks know that they can stake their lives on God's promises.

I really like this little book. It's filled with Bible verses from several different translations and paraphrases, and it's broken up into categories that pertain to different situations you may be going through in your life (i.e. anger, unforgiveness, loneliness, etc.). I've really found this little compilation to be a good go-to when I'm feeling depressed or needing guidance.

A really great read for those who want to use the Bible for a tool to help them in life. It has topics like having Courage, Feeling being Lonely, having Anger Issues, being calm, etc and having the verses/passages that relate to them. It is great because it really helps you to look in the right spot. I highly recommend to Every Christian or those who are interested in learning about Jesus.

I just love this book. Every problem, good or bad, you can look for scriptures that can help you and know it is God's will that this is going on. He is always with you and loves you. Its nice to have verses at your fingertips to remind yourself.

Awesome book! Kinda Like a Devotional, but not really. It just confronts problems an average christian might face. It gives scripture on how to deal with it!

More like a traditional devotional with scripture and a reading than the other DC Talk books. In that sense I liked it more because it wasn't the same thing as before.
