Welcome to the
family!
A great adventure
awaits you as you begin your walk with Christ.
But you may be
asking, “Where do I go from here?”
That’s why the New Believer’s Bible is for you. The easy-to-understand and
accurate
text of the New Living Translation makes this Bible perfect for both
reading and
in-depth study. Pastor,
author, and evangelist Greg Laurie has written a series
of study notes, in four
devotional study tracks, to help you get into God’s Word
and start growing:
• Cornerstones cover the basics of Christian belief. Here you will learn about
the Trinity, Holy
Spirit, angels, Satan, heaven, hell, forgiveness, peace, joy, love,
and other
essential teachings of the Bible.
• First Steps help you know God and His plan for you. Discover how to know
you are saved, find the
right church, study the Bible, resist temptation, talk with
God, and must more.
• Off and Running shows you how you can enjoy God’s blessings and
direction
in all areas of your life:
career, marriage, family, finances, and relationships.
• Big Questions tackle
those difficult issues you may be dealing with right now
as a new believer, ["Why do bad things happen to good people?"].
Joy,
peace and security are God’s gifts for all Christians.
Let the New
Believer’s Bible New Testament help you to immediately
enjoy the many
benefits of being a member of God’s family.
TMEW: The New
Believer's Bible is designed to help new Christians understand
and grow in
their new-found faith, to learn the basic doctrines of the Christian
faith, and
to encourage personal application of the Scriptures.
The Life Recovery Bible focuses on the 12
steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and
encourages change by self-effort. Commentary on Scripture is centered on
God’s desire for the reader’s recovery,
removing shortcomings and character
defects
– Jesus’ life, death and resurrection are alluded to as a means to
these
ends. More importantly, it’s not
what this book says, it’s what it does
not say!
“The
Most Excellent Way”
believes that once an individual (addicted or not)
is born again, he or she has been recovered
once and for all and for all eternity.
Our old nature
remains, and wars against our new spiritual nature. Without
knowledge of the Scriptures, a Jesus-recovered-and-healed believer does
not have the resources to live a
spiritually victorious life pleasing to God.
