Description
"Is it working? Your belief system, that is. Is it really working? God's intention all along has been for the believer's life to work. From divine perspective toward terrestrial turf, God meant for his children to succeed.... Are our Christian lives successful? Are they achieving and experiencing what Scripture said they would? In a recent sermon my son-in-law preached, Curt told us the only way we were going to impact the world and the next generation is to prove that our faith in Christ is real and that it works. For countless Christians I'm convinced it's real. My concern is whether or not we have the fruit to suggest it works." --Beth Moore, Believing God

I really loved this book. It took me awhile ~ months ~ to read; only because I was trying to suck every bit of wisdom from its pages.
Beth gives us five basic principles to ingrain in our thinking throughout the book. A mantra, if you will:
God is who He says He is.
God can do what He says He can do.
I
I can do all things through Christ.
God's Word is alive and active in me.
The principle that illuminated my thinking the most was the last, God's Word is alive and active in me. For too long I thought of the Bible as a great guide, an ultimate answer book, a way to look into God's character but I rarely thought of it as pure power; able to work actively in my spirit. But it can...it does!
I'd like to include a small quote from the book and leave you with this:
"For the most part we've dumbed-down New Testament Christianity and accepted our reality as theology rather than biblical theology as our reality."
