Steven Furtick

Esa versión ideal de ti no es imaginaria en absoluto. En realidad, es tu ser auténtico el que intenta abrirse paso. Tampoco es una versión futura de ti mismo lo que tienes que perseguir. El verdadero tú puede ser nuevo para ti, pero no lo es para Dios. Es el ser que Él conoció desde el principio. En Renuévate , el pastor y autor de éxitos de ventas del New York Times, Steven Furtick, habla directamente del desafío de vivir la identidad y el llamado que Dios nos ha dado. En este reciente libro, él explora y analiza seis mentalidades prácticas que todos podemos adoptar para pasar de ser quienes somos hoy a donde Dios nos quiere llevar. Estas seis afirmaciones son verdades sobre ti mismo que puedes expresarlas en cualquier momento y en cualquier lugar: - No estoy estancado, a menos que me detenga. - Cristo está en mí, por lo que soy suficiente. - Con Dios, siempre hay un camino y por la fe lo encontraré. - Dios no está en mi contra; Él está conmigo, obrando a través de mí y peleando por mí. - Estar alegre es mi tarea. - Dios me ha dado todo lo que necesito para la temporada en la que estoy. Estas frases sencillas, poderosas y memorables cambiarán tu enfoque, tus sentimientos y tus acciones para alinearlos con la visión que Dios tiene de ti. Dios no solo te está llamando a ser tú mismo. Él te está llamando a renovarte, a ser tu nuevo yo: esa persona única y poderosa que Dios creó en ti.

Mega-Pastor and media personality John Gray uses powerful Biblical principles to help you become your best self -- the person God created you to be. In WIN FROM WITHIN, John Gray helps readers identify how best to handle the most difficult, challenging and yet necessary battle that we all face-our inner struggle to overcome the worst versions of ourselves. He offers biblical lessons to aid in combatting bad habits and limiting patterns so that the best version of ourselves emerges. WIN FROM WITHIN gives practical application to the story recorded in Genesis of Jacob wrestling with the man at the River Jabbok, and through it readers will learn how to become the persons they were created to be. The persons God intended each of us to be develops as we face our inner battles. With examples from his own life as well as his ministerial counseling, Gray provides a pathway to awakening. He includes strategies for confronting the past, how we have been labeled, who people have said we are, even who we think we are, so that we can win the battle and be who God intends us to be. Jacob spent much of his life running and hiding from himself. At a certain point we, like Jacob, cannot run from our true selves anymore. We must stop and face ourselves if we are to become great. WIN FROM WITHIN helps us conquer our inner darkness and overcome such hindrances as fear, shame and guilt. This powerfully biblical self-help guide will push us toward victory over our inner struggles. Winning will make us the persons we have always wanted to be, the persons we have dreamed about becoming, the persons God created us to be.

Don't Let Your Contradictions Keep You From Your Calling Many of us are overwhelmed by the gap between our weaknesses and our dreams, between who we are and who God says we are meant to be. We feel unqualified to do God's work or to live out the possibilities we imagine. But God has a way of using our weaknesses for good. In fact, God loves unqualified people. This book is about understanding your identity in light of who God is. It's a book about coming to terms with the good, the bad, and the unmentionable in your life and learning to let God use you. It's about charging into the gap between your present circumstances and your future dreams and meeting God there. After all, God can't bless who you pretend to be. But he longs to bless who you really are: a flawed and broken person. Fortunately for us God is in the business of using broken people to do big things.

His Final Words Are Your New Beginning It's Good Friday. The Son of God is giving up his life. What does he want to say to us in His final hours? What does He tell the people standing at the foot of the cross, to pass down to the ages? He speaks only seven short statements. Words of forgiveness, salvation, relationship, abandonment, distress, triumph, and reunion. Seven statements that mean everything. In Seven-Mile Miracle, Pastor Steven Furtick shows us how Jesus's last words offer mile markers for our journey in relationship with God. It's a lifelong journey and it's not always easy. But Jesus is both our guide and our destination as we travel. Includes questions for reflection and a forty-day reading guide to Jesus's death and resurrection. A Proven Path for Spiritual Growth From time to time we all feel stuck in our relationship with God and frustrated by life's setbacks. Jesus faced what could have been the ultimate defeat on the cross. Yet he emerged triumphant through his relationship with his heavenly Father. And he showed us the way so that we could do the same. In Seven-Mile Miracle, Steven Furtick explores how Jesus's seven last statements on the cross offer a proven spiritual growth path for us. You will experience the Easter message more personally than ever before as you engage the words of forgiveness, salvation, relationship, abandonment, distress, triumph, reunion. After all, we are not simply believers--people who have put our faith in Jesus. We are not simply disciples--pupils who learn from him. We are called to be followers of Christ. This is your opportunity to follow Jesus through his death, and move forward in his resurrection power, starting now.

Börja vandra längs en väl beprövad väg - samma väg som Jesus själv gick. Steven Furtick har skrivit flera storsäljare, bland annat "Du sol, stå stilla", "Större än" och "Krossa pratkvarnen".

This book is one part theology proper and two parts personal identity. Furtick examines the nature of the divine as the great "I AM," and in turn helps the reader examine his or her own identity. Using Jacob/Israel as a test case, Furtick helps us all to confront our weaknesses. Instead of hiding our shortcomings, Furtick invites us to reveal them and ask God to work through them. This is the paradox of the Christian life: that our weakness makes us strong. That God chooses to work through our imperfection. Pastor Furtick encourages the reader, "embrace who you really are, to become who you are called to be." While that might seem counter-intuitive to some, we have to admit that we can't pull ourselves up by our own bootstraps. We must realize, as Furtick has through his own challenging journey, that God can't bless who we pretend to be. He blesses who we really are. - Publisher

New York Times bestseller The Voice You Listen to Will Determine the Future You Experience... In Crash the Chatterbox, Pastor Steven Furtick focuses on four key areas in which negative thoughts are most debilitating: insecurity, fear, condemnation, and discouragement. He asks, "What great deeds are in danger of remaining undone in your life because of lies that were planted in your past or fears that are looming in your future?" With personal stories, inspiring examples, and practical strategies, Pastor Furtick will show you how to silence the lies and embrace the freeing affirmation of God. Learn how to live out God's truth no matter what is going on in your life or thoughts. Learn how to crash the chatterbox...and hear God's voice above all others. Crashing the chatterbox = Overpowering lies of insecurity, fear, condemnation, and discouragement with the promises of God. "I used to think that someone who struggled with the kinds of weaknesses I deal with daily was useless to God. I felt so often like I was drowning in internal dialogue I couldn't control. It had been the soundtrack of my life for as long as I could remember. Yet everything changed when I began to realize God has given us the ability to choose the dialogue we believe and respond to. And once we learn how, we can switch from lies to truth as deliberately as we can choose the Beatles over Miley Cyrus on satellite radio. This is the key to pressing ahead and doing God's will anyway, even as you are bombarded with thoughts, feelings, and even facts about why you can't do it. I'm now awakening to the reality that we can access the power of God's promises to constantly crash the system of our broken beliefs. I'm learning how to overpower the shouts of the Enemy by bending my ear to the whisper of God's supernatural truths about my identity in Him and His strength in me."-Steven Furtick, from Crash the Chatterbox Includes discussion questions for individuals or groups.

Are you ready to open your imagination to the possibility that God has a vision for your life that is "greater"? We all have honest moments when we're gripped by a desire to feel that what we're doing matters more. That who we "are" matters more. And according to one of the most shocking verses in the Bible, Jesus wants the very same thing for "every one "of us: "Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater thingsthan these, because I am going to the Father." -John 14:12That single promise--"even greater things than these"--should be enough to shatter our acceptance of spiritual mediocrity. Unfortunately, most believers have only tried and given up on vague notions of "greatness..."then settled into a life that's just "good enough." Good enough = Baseline living that is marked by mediocrity, stuck in spiritual survival mode, and controlled by complacency. Greatness = Vague, unrealistic aspirations of doing better that don't work in real life and lead to endless frustration. But there is a third way. Greater = The life-altering understanding that God is ready to accomplish a greatness in your life that is entirely out of human reach--beyond anything you see in yourself on your best day, but exactly what God has seen in you all along. In "Greater, "Pastor Steven Furtick draws on the biblical story of Elisha to empower you to: - Take a God-given dream from idea to reality - Stretch your limited resources and abilities in ways you never thought possible - Replace the images of yourself that keep you feeling stuck in the past - Make a significant impact with your life starting today, rather than making endless plans for tomorrow that you never get around to If you're tired of being ordinary, it's time to dream bigger. If you're feeling overwhelmed about where to begin, it's time to start smaller. It's time to ignite God's "Greater" vision for your life.

In this daily, personal guide Steven leads you deeper into Scripture as you begin to live the life God created and saved us for. Over the next forty days, you'll have the opportunity to see what audacious faith can look like in your own life.

If you have the ability to ask, God has the ability to act - and transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. In this devotional, you will learn daily how to develop your faith, walk in the confidence of Christ, and dare to believe God for the impossible.

Är du redo att öppna dig för möjligheten att Gud har en vision för ditt liv som är större? Vi upplever alla stunder då vi grips av en längtan efter att känna att det vi gör skulle ha större betydelse. Att vilka vi är skulle ha större betydelse. Bibeln antyder att den känslan bottnar i den kallelse som Jesus gav oss för våra liv: Amen säger jag er: Den som tror på mig skall utföra de gärningar om jag gör, och större än dessa skall han göra, ty jag går till Fadern” (Joh 14:12). Det där enda löftet – ”och större än dessa” – borde räcka för att vi skulle sluta nöja oss med medelmåttighet. Tyvärr har de flesta troende bara prövat och gett upp sina vaga föreställningar om storhet ... och sedan låtit nöja sig med ett liv som är tillräckligt bra. Gud är beredd att åstadkomma en storhet i ditt liv som helt och hållet ligger bortom mänsklig förmåga – bortom det du kan se i dig själv ens när du är som bäst. Men det är exakt det som Gud har sett i dig hela tiden. I Större än visar pastor Steven Furtick utifrån Bibelns berättelse om Elisa hur du kan: • Ta en gudagiven dröm från idé till verklighet • Tänja på dina begränsade resurser och förmågor på sätt du aldrig trodde var möjligt • Byta ut de bilder du har av dig själv som får dig att känna att du sitter fast i det förflutna • Låta ditt liv göra betydande skillnad från och med idag, i stället för att göra stora planer för i morgon som du aldrig sätter i verket Större än kommer att ge dig övertygelsen att ingenting är omöjligt för Gud, klarsynen du behöver för att urskilja nästa steg som Gud kallar dig att ta, och modet att göra vad han än säger åt dig att göra. Steven Furtick är författare till Du sol, stå stilla och är grundare och huvudpastor i Elevation Church, som på bara sex år har vuxit till mer än tiotusen regelbundna gudstjänstbesökare på sex olika platser. Han har en M. Div. från Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Han bor med sin hustru Holly och deras tre barn i Charlotte i North Carolina.
