Praise for the Understanding God Series

Tony Evans has done a masterful job of unfolding the rich truth about God and who He is. He writes with uncommon clarity, accuracy and warmth. This book will be a treasured resource for all who desire to know God better.
      - John MacArthur, Pastor, Grace Community Church of the Valley

On Returning to Your First Love,

Tony Evans has done to us all a service in focusing the biblical spotlight on the absolute necessity of keeping our love of Christ as the central passion of our hearts. Any earnest Christian knows how easy it is to become so absorbed in doing things for Christ that we forget to cultivate our love relationship with Him.
      - Charles Stanley, Pastor, First Baptist Church in Atlanta, Author

On The Promise,

Here is a book that points us to the Spirit's way to purity and power. Every chapter is appropriately titled 'Experiencing the Spirit's...' May this work help all who read it to do so.
      - Dr. Charles Ryrie, Professor, Dallas Theological Seminary

The Understanding God Series Includes

	Totally Saved In his well known confrontational yet compassionate style, Tony Evans challenges readers to gain a deeper appreciation of their salvation by comprehending how sin offends and separates us from the Holy One. Get prepared to have your gratitude for salvation “totally” deepened and your walk with Christ “totally” transformed.		The Battle is the Lord's Many of us assume that such struggles are simply reflections of our physical world. If we are to be victorious over the devil and his army, we must learn to fight on a spiritual level. We're in a war, but Christ has given us the victory.
	What Matters Most God's goal for believers is that they become more like Christ. But what does it mean to be like Christ? Knowledge alone will not make a person a disciple: knowledge must be coupled with the skill that comes from using what you know. This process is called discipleship; it consists of four essential elements: worship, fellowship, education and outreach. This book helps you to cultivate these areas in your life and in the life of your local congregation.		God's Glorious Church "Can't I be a Christian and not go to or be part of a church?" "I believe in Jesus, but I don't like 'organized' religion." These are common thoughts regarding the place the church has in the life of some believers. Popular pastor, speaker, and radio host Tony Evans believes fervently in the centrality and significance of the Christian church. His basic thesis is that the church is the continuation of Christ's incarnation. We are the "body" with a job to do!
	Returning to Your First Love Dr. Evans challenges you to probe your heart and consider your commitment to God. Hard-hitting answers, biblical evidence, and down-to-earth illustrations cut to the heart of the topic. This book will bring you to your knees and re-ignite the flame in your heart for your Lord and Savior.		The Transforming Word Most Christians rely on the Bible for answers, encouragement, and inspiration. We value the bible above other books, but do we know its true power? Much is at stake when we don't fully understand what the Bible is, and why God gave it to us. In The Transforming Word, Tony Evans invites readers to discover why knowing the Bible matters so much - and how it can transform our lives.
	The Promise If you and I are going to live victorious Christian lives, we must understand the Holy Spirit's task is to enable us to experience the Christian life. It's the Spirit who lifts the truth of Scripture off the page and causes it to explode in our lives. So, if you long for a closer walk with Christ and a new infusion of the power for Godly living, then you're ready for The Promise - a deeper, biblical experience of the Holy Spirit.		The Best is Yet to Come For thousands of years God's plan for humanity has been unfolding. But Evans assures us that the best is still to come. Offering fresh insight into biblical prophecy, his examination of the tribulation, rapture, heaven, hell, and other topics will not only satisfy your curiosity about tomorrow, but will dramatically impact the way you live today!
	Our God is Awesome Grounded in Biblical truth and packed with captivating illustrations from everyday life, this study details fourteen key characteristics of God and examines how they can enhance and cultivate your relationship with Him. The more you know about God, the more awestruck you become, the more you will worship God - the kind of worship and the kind of relationship God intended when He created you.		Who is this King of Glory? Everyone knows about Jesus Christ. Everyone has heard His name, maybe even prayed to Him in an hour of dire emergency. But few really know Him as, "very God of very God" and, at the same time, Friend, Provider, Master, Savior. Come along with Tony Evans on this life-changing journey to know the One and Only Son and the Only God. You won't just learn about Him; you'll also come face-to-face with Him, maybe for the first time.
