Synopsis

"The Key To Triumphant Living" has one central theme - instead of trying to live the Christian life, let God instead live His life through you. Some of the points covered include: 1. We can be so busy trying to be like Christ and trying to do His work that we disallow His work in us. 2. Instead of representing heaven, Canaan represents the victory we can have now on earth. 3. Christ did not come to improve self, He came to replace it. 4. The Christian is of no use to God unless he is dead to self. 5. God does not need a greatness in numbers to get His job done. 6. The devil is a hinderer, deceiver, and an accuser. The secret to defeating him is "Christ in you, the hope of glory!" 7. We need to accept the fact of our indequacy and praise the Lord for His adequacy in us. A great read that will encourage you to stop trying to live the Chrstian life in your strength and instead let God live His life in and through you!

About the Author

Jack R. Taylor is a graduate of Hardin-Simmons University and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He pastored the Castle Hills First Baptist Church in San Antonio, Texas for almost seventeen years where a mighty spiritual awakening took place in 1970, which doubled the membership of the church in four years. Jack has authored 13 widely accepted books, many CD's and video series. During the last 40 years he has traveled extensively, ministering the word of God to the Body of Christ at large. With a visit to Toronto in August of 1994 during which significant personal healing took place both physically and spiritually, his ministry took a dramatic turn with increased manifestations of the power of the Holy Spirit. He continues to preach predominantly in the United States in churches of many denominations, with trips to Canada, England, Tanzania, West Africa, Germany, Austria and Latin America. Jack has spoken often at Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship where God also moved in a dramatic way to touch the community and the world. The Lord has gifted Jack with an apostolic insight into the word of God and the heart to communicate the fullness of His Kingdom. He "fathers" over 200 men and women he recognizes as spiritual sons. Sonslink is his effort to connect with spiritual offspring intentionally and to leave a legacy of transformed lives. Jack received an honorary doctorate in March of 2011 from Saint Thomas Christian College of Jacksonville, Florida. Dr. Taylor serves as the President of Dimensions Ministries in Melbourne, Florida. He married Friede Taylor on December 28, 2004. They both enjoy traveling together.
