Are you living a Cross Centered Life?
December 12, 2005
I recently read C.J. Mahaney’s classic book The Cross Centered Life. Let me recommend it wholeheartedly!
It has the ability to transform your life, and greatly reorient your thinking. It’s subtitle is “Keeping the Gospel the Main Thing“. Am I doing that, are you? The gospel is not only important for the lost, but it is the fuel which is to supply our energy for the Christian life.
Here is a great review of the small book (only 89 pages) by Tim Challies. I encourage you to get this and make it part of your life.
Gal. 6:14 “But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.”
∼striving for the unity of the faith for the glory of God∼ Eph. 4:3,13 • Rom. 15:5-7
