Digital
Overview
If self-help isn’t getting you anywhere, it’s time for God’s power! Have you grown accustomed to bad habits, written off lifelong battles as unwinnable, or believed that some destructive behaviors can never be altered? Then The 7 Resolutions is for you. This book will teach you how to overthrow old patterns, create new life systems, and take hold of God’s promises. Resolve to: • Join God • Think Truth • Kill Sin • Choose Friends • Take Risks • Focus Effort • Redeem Time Never settle for too little. The time is now for humble dependence on God and a plan to walk in His power. It’s time to come alive! KARL CLAUSON is the host of Karl and Crew Mornings on Moody Radio in Chicago. He’s also the lead pastor of 180 Chicago Church. A few reckless years after completing the 1,100-mile Iditarod in Alaska at age 18, God radically transformed Karl’s life. Now Karl is running the ultimate race as a speaker, ministry leader, husband, and father. His mission is "to inspire a spiritual revolution in the church that reaches the world." Karl and his bride have two adult children. Praise for The 7 Resolutions This is the best book I have read that balances a life motivated by grace yet also shows the need for spiritual disciplines. It avoids the errors of legalism and also the opposite errors of permissive grace. Yes, it does show clearly where self-help ends and God’s power begins. Karl’s honesty and vulnerability about his own struggles makes this book welcoming, and hope filled. It provides specific direction for every one of us who long to see God’s continuing transforming power in our lives. —ERWIN LUTZER Pastor Emeritus, The Moody Church, Chicago. Karl Clauson has spent decades helping people as a pastor and radio personality live out their new spiritual life and calling. The message of The 7 Resolutions comes from Karl’s study of the Word and thousands of conversations with struggling people. I strongly recommend this book to anyone living in the frustrating gap between where you know you should be spiritually and where you currently are at. —MARK JOBE President, Moody Bible Institute From time to time a book comes along that offers more than a good story line or helpful insights. It feels anointed. That’s my sense of Karl Clauson’s The 7 Resolutions. It carries prophetic calls we desperately need today to counter the ever-darkening culture now challenging us. Its truth powerfully penetrates the “soft” Christianity and self-effort so many believers are mired in. It’s so on-target for our day. I cannot recommend it strongly enough … not just to read, but vital truth to gather around with others and master. It’s that needed! —ROBERT LEWIS Pastor, founder of Men’s Fraternity and BetterMan Every one of us has heard the voice of the accuser … “you can’t,” “you won’t,” “you aren’t …” As broken people, it’s easy to fall prey to his insidious lies about our own failings and to descend into a pit of darkness that surrounds our soul. You can try to claw your way out on your own or you can grab the lifeline of God’s strength and His promises. This book is about pulling you out of that darkness—of remembering who God is and what He says about YOU. You can try to fix the issues you are facing on your own, or you can grab on to the One whose power and love can rescue you from any pit. The choice is yours, but this book will help you make the better choice. Read it—and resolve to let God take control. —JANET PARSHALL Host / Executive Producer, In the Market with Janet Parshall Karl Clauson is driven by a bold and unshakable faith that you can be free! His confidence in God’s power to radically heal you from addiction, pain, and brokenness is not theoretical; it comes from his own personal healing journey and encounter with God’s liberating grace. The 7 Resolutions is a clarion call to anyone who is ready to join God and kill sin! In Christ … freedom starts today! —CHRIS BROOKS Senior Pastor, Woodside Bible Church; host, Equipped with Chris Brooks In his wonderfully practical book, Karl offers deep insight and biblical wisdom for lasting change. If you’re looking for tools to defeat the lies in your mind and overcome negative patterns of thinking, run and get this book. —LINA ABUJAMRA Author of Fractured Faith; founder, Living with Power Ministries When Karl speaks or writes, I listen. He is one of the most authentic and inspiring men I know. He will light up your life in one second. I find myself smiling and excited about life every time I’m around him. Karl had me from the first page ofthis book. God has miraculously changed Karl’s life and He wants to do the same with yours. Jump into The 7 Resolutions and let God transform you into the person He created you to be! —DAVE WILSON. Host of Family Life Today The Bible says in John 14:26, “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” Karl addresses how that truth can lead his readers to real healing and growth instead of the world’s counterfeit. It’s refreshing to hear the truth. —BEN CALHOUN Lead singer and songwriter, Citizen Way I love this book! Thank you, Karl, for so clearly underscoring the reality that Jesus is in the business of transforming our lives. We can indeed win our biggest battles. But we are not passive bystanders in our victories. The 7 Resolutions points to the reality of our part in receiving and experiencing God’s promises for our lives: decision and resolve. You will find, however, that these resolutions are not anchored in “bootstrapping” self-determination, leading to failure and frustration. No, they are expressions of our reliance on the power of the Holy Spirit to produce change and transformation. Thank you, my brother, for this treasured gift! —DR. CRAWFORD W. LORITTS JR. Author, speaker, radio host; founder and President of Beyond Our Generation. The 7 Resolutions resource that you are holding in your hands delivers straight talk from a genuine and authentic man: Karl Clauson. His vulnerable style of writing puts you in the room with him whether you listen to him on radio, sit under his teaching at conferences or church, or walk with him as a friend as I have the honor of doing. This isn’t self-help. This is all about joining God and experiencing the real deal of His wisdom, love and grace. Read it. Digest it. Share it. Open your heart to God’s truth and promises and put on your seatbelt for the ride of The 7 Resolutions. —DR. GARY ROSBERG America’s Family Coaches; author, speaker, marriage coach. The 7 Resolutions is written by a man who has been changed by the power of almighty God. It flows from the heart of a man who longs to see disciple-makers raised up and multiplying. You can feel Karl’s passion and his hunger for kingdom advancement on page after page. It’s one of those books you can’t put down and wish you had read decades sooner! If you thirst for first-century, New Testament, book of Acts Christianity, read the book. You won’t regret it! —DAVID NELMS Founder and President, TTI.
