True Believing. This item is unavailable.True Believing

This is a book for those who are somewhat confused about believing and need biblical guidance. Each of the author s 52 brief messages, consisting of three pages or less, quickly catches the reader s attention, and draws him or her into the core of the matter. With its directness, simplicity, warmth, and no-nonsense approach, True Believing has helped many to find out where they are. Some concluded that their faith was not saving and felt encouraged to begin their search for real faith. Others were nourished and felt understood in their spiritual struggles. The reader will encounter the explanation of many interesting Bible verses, and will find out that even devils believe, that doubting is not always bad, and that God s Word speaks of many different types of faith.
