Winning Souls Starts With Loving PeopleChristian evangelism has too often focused on "winning souls" to the exclusion of meeting real, everyday needs. Yet Jesus' earthly ministry followed a different pattern: He reached for people on the margins. He touched people no one else would touch. He spoke hope to people consumed by despair. And as the Lord extended Himself in compassion to meet the needs of the sick, the lost, and the hopeless, people turned their hearts to Him. Love Like Jesus will help you follow Jesus' pattern for changing lives. You will learn the importance of placing your confidence in Him alone, of staying faithful through seasons of unfruitfulness, of facing your fears with courage, and much more. Most of all, you will catch a vision of God's unfathomable love for every person, and get the tools you need to share it with people in need of a Savior.

Det är ett sätt att se förbi det ytliga och fundera över vad som pågår på insidan av oss i den oumbärliga del av oss som vi ofta glömmer bort när vi kämpar oss igenom vardagslivet, den del som Judah kallar "ditt inre du". I "Hur mår din själ?" så utforskar Judah detta "ditt inre du". Medan han delar med sig av egna ofta humoristiska misstag och svagheter, så hjälper han oss att hitta vägen fram genom livets känslomässiga berg- och dalbanor så att vi upptäcker väsentligheterna som är läkande för själen - vila, ansvar, återhållsamhet och relationer - som alla grundar sig i det som han kallar för själens enda sanna hem: Gud själv. Hur mår din själ? är en inbjudan till att hitta varaktig känslomässig tillfredsställelse och stabilitet genom att vi ställer in våra känslor i enlighet med Guds sanningar, rör oss bortom att bara överleva vardagen och lär oss hur vi lever varje dag så att de får betydelse för evigheten.
