Navigators Conference to Feature Bridges
Sunday, January 25th, 2009
Acclaimed author and long-time leader of The Navigators, Jerry Bridges, returns to Lawrence January 30th and 31st to speak on the topic of True Christian Fellowship. Mr. Bridges served in the collegiate ministry and community ministries of The Navigators, and for 15 years he was the Vice President for Corporate Affairs. This exciting conference is open to the public and sponsored by the University of Kansas Navigator group. Details are available at the KU Navs website.
Mr. Bridges is the author of over a dozen books, the most popular of which, The Pursuit of Holiness, has sold nearly one-and-a-half million copies. His publisher writes: Jerry takes holiness out of the realm of the impossible and brings it into the real world of our daily lives and decisions.
More recently Mr. Bridges has written Respectable Sins: Confronting the Sins We Tolerate. Our culture has lost the concept of sin and, he argues, the church faces the same danger. Drawing from scriptural truth, he sheds light on subtle behaviors that can derail spiritual growth.
The Jerry Bridges book we most often recommend at Signs of Life is The Gospel for Real Life. In it we are given the sage advice to “preach the gospel to yourself every day.” But what is the gospel? And how does it affect our day to day life? Here you will find profound answers to these questions; but don’t confuse “profound” with “hard to read”. The novice as well as the mature Christian will both find this to be a very satisfying book.
