1. The Purpose-Driven Life
If I want to recommend a book to new believers, the first thing I think of is Pastor Rick Warren’s “The Purpose Driven Life”. This book is divided into 40 days. Reading one of the contents every day can change a person’s life for 40 days. It is especially suitable for family members who have just believed in the Lord.
This book is a very famous bestseller all over the world, and the lives of many people have undergone earth-shaking changes because of reading the contents of this book.
Among them, some criminals read this book in prison and later became priests; I also read this book when I once wanted to commit suicide and regained hope in life.
So far, this book has been ranked among the top best-selling Christian books in China almost every year, and it is often out of stock, and the supply of reprints is still in short supply.
Therefore, if you have just converted to Christianity, I suggest that you must read this book; if you have a friend who has just converted to the Lord, you can also give him a copy of “The Purpose Driven Life”. Perhaps, your or TA’s life will be different because of this.
2. Experiencing God
Compared with “The Purpose Driven Life”, this book “Experiencing God” is more suitable for those brothers and sisters who pursue life growth. To be precise, this is a set of courses for the growth of spiritual life, with a total of 12 units (5 days per unit, 60 days in total) of training to help your life become different from before.
Since 1990, God has used this course to touch and change millions of lives and thousands of churches around the world. Ten years later, this book has issued more than 3 million copies, and there are translations in 47 languages, and it is used by almost all denominations, and God even uses other derivatives of this book.
The response to “Experiencing God” has been astonishing. Lives have been transformed — in prisons, in the military, and in all walks of life: lawyers, judges, CEOs, Professional athletes, and politicians. Not only that, thousands of churches and seminaries have been greatly helped and changed.
God has used these truths to influence people all over the world. Hundreds of missionaries have embarked on the missionary path because of this course, and hundreds more have become pastors, evangelists, and faithful servants of the Lord.
Only God in heaven really knows what He is going to do with the book Never the Same. If you have just converted to Christianity, this book is very suitable for your faith training; if you have been a believer for a while, but find that your life has not grown, then you need this book to bring changes in your life.
3. The Garden of the Soul
For brothers and sisters who have just converted to Christianity, it is very important to cultivate the habit of daily devotional practice. If you can develop the habit of getting close to God every day from the very beginning of your belief, it will play a very valuable role in your future life.
However, how cultivating the habit of daily devotional practice is not an easy task. However, this “Garden of the Mind” is designed for this purpose.
This book has a total of 365 devotional essays written by Martin Luther, Spurgeon, Now in, Edwards, and other very famous spiritual giants in the history of Christianity. A spiritual giant every month, a total of 12 spiritual giants will help you get closer to God every day 365 days a year.
With “The Garden of the Soul”, you can spend only 5 minutes a day, as long as you stick to it, gradually you can develop a good habit of daily spiritual practice and be close to God, which will play a role in your future life huge help.
4. Rick Warren’s Bible Reading Method
At the beginning of faith, it is very important to develop the habit of reading the Bible. However, “The Old Testament cannot get out of Egypt, and the New Testament cannot reach Rome” is a great worry for many Christians.
So, learning to read the Bible is not as easy as you think. Rick Warren’s Method of Reading the Bible by Pastor Rick Warren will help you develop a uniquely tailored way for you to search, understand, and apply the Bible.
Rick Warren’s Bible Reading Method is a classic book on how to read and study the Bible for individuals. It has been widely used by Bible colleges, universities, seminaries, churches, and Bible study classes in the past 20 years.
Thousands of individuals, small groups, churches, and conference courses have used this practical handbook to unravel the wondrous truths of the Bible. you can also!
5. The Pilgrim’s Progress
“The Pilgrim’s Progress” is the most widely circulated and translated book besides the “Bible”. It is said that there are more than 200 translations around the world. The author’s name is John Bunyan, a devout Christian who was imprisoned for 12 years for preaching the gospel. He wrote this book while in prison.
“The Pilgrim’s Progress” is an allegorical novel. This allegorical work is usually regarded as an important Christian classic second only to the “Bible” in Western countries. It is called “the encyclopedia with eternal significance”. A landmark chapter in literary history.
The narrator in the book saw a man named “Christian” reading a book in his dream, and was terrified when he knew that the city he lived in would be destroyed by fire.
At this time, a man named “Preacher” pointed out that he must flee his hometown and go to heaven. Bearing the burden of the world on their backs, Christians have embarked on a difficult and courageous journey to find salvation for themselves and for others.
6. The Grand Weaver
This book compares God to a great weaver and tells us how to use every humble thread in our life to weave the tapestry of God’s glory and beauty, which is God’s ultimate goal.
Is everything we encounter in our lives predestined? Or is it all just a coincidence? This book tells us: whether it is a chance meeting in line or a father’s last words, whether it is a random phone call or a verse in the Bible, every detail in life is woven into God’s perfect plan.
The topics discussed in The Great Weaver cover every area of life, allowing us to more fully experience what it means to be alive. This is a book about the meaning of life.
In each chapter, the author will raise a topic that is very important and unique to human beings: uniqueness, disappointment, calling, moral law, spiritual pursuit, personal will and God’s plan, worship, and ultimate pursuit.
7. Discovering God
The Bible tells many true and wonderful stories — the stories between God and his children, but the vast ancient history often restricts our eyes to fragmented and fragmented fragments, and the pages always make us look at the stories in a flat way. People and things, even only isolated truths are extracted.
It leads readers to discover God’s intentions for human beings in various periods of history — from the moment of creation of the world to the final change of the whole world, bringing everything back to God’s plan.
This book may be the starting point of your lifelong habit of reading scriptures. You are invited to start a journey of searching with Philip Yang, discover God, and then know him.
