Living the Story by R Paul Stevens

Living the Story by R Paul Stevens

Foreword by Eugene H. Peterson This instructive, practical book explores the meaning of biblical spirituality, a spirituality rooted in the Scriptures, in the grand story of God. Writing to promote genuine discipleship and an everyday sense of God's presence, R. Paul Stevens and Michael Green show that biblical spirituality is based on down-to-earth principles meant to foster righteous living -- at home, at work, wherever one is. They highlight the importance of our being in relationship with the Triune God and discuss how we can be worshipers of Abba God, disciples of Jesus, and temples of the Holy Spirit. The book proceeds through the Old and New Testaments, engaging readers with the discoveries and struggles of people of faith from Adam and Eve to those gathered around the Lamb in the new Jerusalem. Stevens and Green focus throughout on how we can truly live the Word of God so that our own stories become part of God's great story of love. Filled with biblical wisdom and a pleasure to read, Living the Story is a winsome invitation to follow God wholeheartedly in every dimension of life.
