2024 ECPA Christian Living Book of the Year WinnerEver wonder if you’ve stumbled one too many times for God to use someone like you? Could you benefit from an encounter with God’s unending, unbending, unswerving love and devotion? If your answer is yes, it’s time for you to see how God’s grace transformed Jacob’s life. And if you feel undeserving of God’s grace, this book will serve as a refresher course on God’s perfect plan to use imperfect people to do great things.God Never Gives Up on You is for the strugglers among us and the fumbler within us. For those of us who are part saint, part scoundrel; we mean well, but we don’t always do well. We have breakthroughs and breakdowns, often in the same hour. We need no reminder of our failures. But where can we find examples of God’s steadfast grace?No one is more suited to help assure you of God’s grace than Jacob. He was less a prodigy and more a prodigal. Strong on savvy. Weak on conscience. Jacob took advantage of his famished brother and pulled the wool over the eyes of his dying father, yet God never turned his back on Jacob. And he won’t turn his back on you. If you are ready to start counting on God’s grace and believe he never gives up on you, this book is for you.

¿Te has preguntado alguna vez si tienes demasiados tropiezos para que Dios utilice a alguien como tú? Si te puede beneficiar una historia de la gracia y la devoción incesante, indoblegable e inquebrantable de Dios, entonces la historia de Jacob es justo lo que necesitas.Dios nunca se da por vencido contigo es para los luchadores entre nosotros y para los ineptos que llevamos dentro. Para los que somos en parte santos y en parte sinvergüenzas. Tenemos buenas intenciones, pero ¿lo hacemos bien? Bueno, no siempre. Tenemos avances, sin duda, pero también fracasos, a menudo en la misma hora. No necesitamos que nos los recuerden. No los hemos olvidado. Sin embargo, podríamos usar un curso de actualización sobre el plan perfecto de Dios para utilizar a personas imperfectas.Y nadie es más adecuado para la tarea que Jacob, el patriarca que se portó mal. Era menos un prodigio y más un pródigo. Fuerte en inteligencia. Con poca conciencia. Dios utilizó a Jacob porque eligió utilizar a Jacob. Y punto. ¿La palabra para tal devoción? Gracia. La gracia vino tras Jacob. La gracia lo encontró en el desierto. La gracia lo protegió en el exilio. La gracia le hizo caer al suelo y le bendijo. La gracia lo llevó a su casa en Canaán. La historia de Jacob nos invita a creer en un Dios que se queda con los indignos y los que no alcanzan el éxito hasta que estamos a salvo en casa.God Never Gives Up on YouEver wonder if you have one too many stumbles for God to use someone like you? If you could benefit from a tale of God’s unending, unbending, unswerving grace and devotion, then the story of Jacob is just what you need.His Grace Never Quits is a book for the members of the Lost Halo Society. For the strugglers among us and the fumbler within us. For those of us who are part saint, part scoundrel. We mean well, but do well? Well, we don’t always. We have breakthroughs, for sure, but breakdowns as well, often in the same hour. We need no reminder of our failures. We have not forgotten them. But we could use a refresher course on God’s perfect plan to use imperfect people.And no one is more suited to the task than Jacob, the misbehaving patriarch. He was less a prodigy and more a prodigal. Strong on savvy. Low on conscience. God used Jacob because God chose to use Jacob. Period. The word for such devotion? Grace. Grace came after Jacob. Grace found him in the desert. Grace protected him in exile. Grace wrestled him to the ground and blessed him. Grace led him home to Canaan. Jacob’s story invites us to believe in a God who sticks with the unworthy and underachievers until we are safely at home.

I över trettio år har Max Lucado försökt visa oss vem Jesus är. I hans kanske bästa bok hittills tar han oss vidare på resan mot att lära känna Frälsaren – och hur han är. Under trettiotre år gick Jesus igenom allt det som du och jag någon gång har upplevt. Hans fötter blev trötta och huvudet värkte. Han blev frestad och hans krafter sattes på prov. Men vet du vad? Genom att bli människa gjorde Jesus det möjligt för oss att se Gud. Hans tårar är Guds tårar. Hans röst är Guds röst. Jesus förstår det du går igenom och han känner till dina dagliga utmaningar och din kamp. Den störste hjälten genom tiderna talar till dig personligen, och i honom kommer du att finna svaret på din djupaste längtan. ”Universums Gud känner till ditt namn. Han har gått i dina skor.” Boken är indelad i sex avdelningar (Immanuel, vän, lärare, mirakelgörare, Guds lamm, Kungen som kommer tillbaka) och beskriver såväl den person Jesus var när han gick på jorden som hur man lever i en personlig relation till honom. Genom att se närmare på Jesu liv, död och uppståndelse – och hans vardag tillsammans med vänner och fiender, hur han ibland drog sig undan och hur han betedde sig på en fest – blir man bekant med Frälsaren som är i centrum för världens mest fantastiska berättelse. Man kan mer än bara känna till om Jesus. Man kan uppleva hans kärlek, hans glädje, hans smärta och förstå varför han offrade så mycket för att frälsa oss. Det gör att man tydligare kan se den person man är skapad till att vara. Max Lucado är pastorn och författaren som skriver böcker för den som inte gärna läser böcker.

Jesús nos entiende porque fue humano como nosotros, y experimentó las mismas frustraciones y anhelos que nosotros encontramos a diario. Sintió nuestra profunda tristeza y experimentó nuestra soledad más oscura. Por encima de todo, Jesús nos entiende.En la época de Jesús, las comunidades estaban divididas profundamente por amargas diferencias de creencias religiosas, posiciones políticas, ingresos desiguales, estatus legal y diferencias étnicas. ¿Pero cuál fue la posición de Jesús en todo esto? ¿Se alineó con las élites religiosas? ¿O inició una rebelión para derrocarlas? Ninguna de las dos cosas.En cambio, fue de pueblo en pueblo, ofreciendo esperanza, nueva vida, y modelando una forma diferente de vivir y de cambiar el mundo. En vez de buscar poder, dinero o autoridad religiosa, compartió una forma de vida amorosa y sacrificialmente generosa: promovió un camino mejor. Pero ¿cómo podemos aplicar el enfoque de Jesús al cristianismo moderno?En las páginas de Él nos entiende, encontrarás 14 de las preguntas más frecuentes sobre Jesús, entre ellas:¿Estuvo alguna vez estresado?¿Alguna vez se sintió solo?¿Lloró alguna vez?¿Se divertía Jesús?¿Cómo se enfrentó a la injusticia?¿Se hartó de la política?Cada capítulo incluye preguntas frecuentes, respuestas detalladas de los colaboradores de Él nos entiende y escritos seleccionados del autor de mayor ventas del New York Times, Max Lucado, un código QR que nos lleva a un video profundo que podemos compartir con otros, y versículos eternos de las Escrituras.Ya sea que estés explorando la fe por primera vez, buscando respuestas a las preguntas difíciles de la vida o buscando una relación más profunda con Jesús, Él nos entiende será tu guía en cada paso del camino.He Gets UsJesus understands our lives because he was human too. He faced the same hardships and personal struggles that we encounter daily. He felt our deepest sadness and experienced our darkest solitude. Above all, Jesus gets us.In Jesus' time, communities were deeply divided by bitter differences in religious beliefs, political positions, income inequality, legal status, and ethnic differences. But where was Jesus in all of this? Did he align with the religious elites? Or did he start an uprising to overthrow them? Neither of the above.Instead, he went from town to town, offering hope, new life, and modeling a different way to live and to change the world. Instead of pursuing power, money, or religious authority, he shared a loving and sacrificially generous way of living--he championed a better way. But how can we understand the Jesus of the Bible today?Inside the pages of He Gets Us, you'll find 14 of the most frequently asked questions about Jesus, including:Was Jesus ever stressed?Was Jesus ever lonely?Did Jesus ever mourn?Did Jesus have fun?How did Jesus deal with injustice?Was Jesus fed up with politics?Each chapter includes an FAQ, detailed responses from contributors of He Gets Us and selected writings from New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado, a QR code that takes you to a profound video that you can watch and share with others, and timeless Scripture verses.

Känner du dig trött? Sliten av räkningar som läggs på hög, krig som rasar, eller ett hjärta som gör ont? Om det är så kommer Esters bok med välkomna nyheter: lättnad kommer! För att vara tydlig; du bad inte om den här kampen. Du vill ta dig igenom den. Du vet inte hur länge till du orkar hålla ut. Men tänk om Gud är med dig i denna svåra säsong? När livet tycks ha spårat ur, kom ihåg denna sanning: den sekund du böjer ditt huvud för att be är det ögonblick som Gud lyfter sin hand för att hjälpa. Drottning Ester lärde sig denna sanning genom det hon var med om. När hon konfronterades med ett kungligt dekret som skulle förinta hennes folk ställdes hon inför tuffa beslut. Skulle hon förbli tyst inför denna ut­maning eller skulle hon säga ifrån? Skulle hon smälta in eller skulle hon sticka ut? Efter att Ester tillbringat tre dagar i bön och fasta gav Gud henne modet att säga ifrån. Gud använde henne för att rädda nationen. Och Gud kan göra detsamma med dig. I Du skapades just för detta ögonblick hjälper pastorn och den bäst­säljande författaren Max Lucado dig att: • sätta ditt hopp till de storslagna vändningarnas Gud, och lita på att Gud kommer att rätta till alla fel. • odla mod för dina utmanande tider genom att du lutar dig mot Gud som förlöser och återställer. • upptäcka din roll i Guds berättelse genom att utforska hur Gud kan använda dina erfarenheter och omständigheter för att du ska verka tillsammans med honom i hans heliga verk. Gud har aldrig lovat oss ett liv utan prövningar, men han lovar att vara med oss när vi går igenom dem. Lita på att han kan lösa dina kamper för ett mäktigt syfte. Du skapades just för detta ögonblick.
