RELENTLESS

ISBN: 9780307457752

Expanding on the best-selling Extraordinary that highlighted the "why" and "what" of God's grace, Bevere here reveals the "how" of living and leading in that grace. Examples from Scripture, real-life stories, and practical applications teach you not just to rise above adversity but to rule over your circumstances and advance the kingdom of God. 240 pages, hardcover from Waterbrook.

Publisher's Description Re?lent?less (ri lent/lis): an attitude or posture that is resolute, uncompromising, persistent, unyielding, constant, unstoppable, ruthless.  The opposite of slacken, waver, or concede.
 
If ever there was a need for followers of Jesus to be resolute in purpose, uncompromising for truth, persistent in faith, unyielding in hope, constant in love, and unstoppable in advancing the kingdom?it's now! God is ruthless in His love and pursuit of us; it's time for His Bride to reflect the same passion.
 
John Bevere explores how people of Bible times and today became relentless: John the Baptist spent years living in a barren desert. Jesus endured hardship in a desolate wilderness of temptation. Both men emerged strong in the "power of the Spirit," relentless in not just getting through challenges but in ruling over their circumstances. Ultimately, they succeeded in their God-given life mission.
 
In Relentless, you'll learn how even seemingly impossible situations were never meant to stop you but to propel you forward in your journey. Discover in these biblically grounded truths how you can thrive no matter what your season of life. 

 
How you begin is not nearly as important as how you finish. Embrace your trials and become relentless!
