A book that illuminates practical ways for achieving the high purpose of life intended for us by our Creator. It unveils hidden landmarks along the way that often go unseen but which are vital for realizing the purpose of life. It also gives practical advice for living the life of holiness that seems so impossible to us. It challenges us to enter into a marriage with God Himself and to live a life of deep communion and commitment to the One who loves us more than we can ever know.
The Rev. Dr. David Kyle Foster
(M-Div - Trinity Evangelical Divinity School)
(D-Min - Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry)
Before his salvation, “David Kyle” Foster was a successful film actor in Hollywood. Then in 1980, while on a search for truth in Israel, Jesus Christ rescued David from his empty pursuit of fame, drugs, gurus, and immorality and set him afire for things of the Kingdom of God. David became the founder and president of Mastering Life Ministries in 1987. His first book, Sexual Healing: God's Plan for the Sanctification of Broken Lives, (available in English and Spanish), is now in its 4th printing and has been used by Prison Fellowship, Insight for Living, Jesse Duplantis, Josh McDowell, Teen Challenge, Exodus International, Youth With a Mission, and many other ministries and church counseling programs around the world. It has also been made into an “Angel Award” winning video course.
David has served as adjunct professor at Asbury Theological Seminary, The Bible Institute of Hawaii, and Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry. Transformed Into His Image: Hidden Steps on the Journey to Christlikeness is the fruit of his doctoral dissertation from TESM.
Dr. Foster’s magazine articles have appeared in Touchstone: A Journal of Mere Christianity, Southern Baptist Youth Ministry Update, Sursum Corda, New Man and Charisma magazines. He has spoken worldwide on the healing of life-dominating sin and brokenness, has appeared on “The 700 Club,” “The Abundant Life,” “Cope,” “The Coral Ridge Hour,” “His Place,” “Home Life,” “News Odyssey,” and has been the host of the Covenant Award winning program, “Mastering Life,” on the Focus on the Family Radio Network. He also serves as a “Canon” at Church of the Messiah in Jacksonville, Florida.
