Este devocional é para quem busca recomeços, para quem já caiu e se levantou, para os que precisam de direção ou desejam ouvir a voz de Deus nos altos e baixos da vida. É para todos que anseiam redescobrir o propósito e a alegria de pertencer a um Reino eterno.

Billy Graham Was the World’s Best-Known Evangelist—Loved and Admired by Millions. But Very Few Knew Him Personally. Pastor and bestselling author Greg Laurie was one of those fortunate few, blessed with an insider’s view of Billy Graham’s world for more than two decades. With the same painstaking research and eye for detail that distinguishes his previous biographies, Steve McQueen: Salvation of an American Icon and Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon, Laurie now turns to the life of his beloved mentor, offering the intimate perspective of a disciple and friend. As a strapping North Carolina farm boy, Graham surrendered his life to Jesus at a camp meeting led by a blustery itinerant preacher, but he never lost the mischievous twinkle in his eye or his fun-loving air. Laurie sheds light on Graham’s lesser-known struggles—such as a broken heart before he met the love of his life and a crisis of faith from which he emerged stronger than ever. From the evangelist’s private challenges and public successes to his disappointments and joys, Billy Graham: The Man I Knew provides a vivid portrait of one of history’s most remarkable Christian lives.

Are you are gripped by fear, overwhelmed with anxiety, or choked out by worry? With global threats, dangers, political uncertainty, pressures, and personal fears about health and money, how do you respond when crisis hits? Do you rely on people, your career, your bank account, or religion to hold you up? As Pastor Greg Laurie writes, "Contentment doesn''t come from what you have, but who you know. God''s promises keep our fear, anxiety, and worry in check. It''s only through Christ, that we can face life''s challenges with confidence knowing that He is not only the light at the end of the tunnel, He is also there with us in the tunnel." This book will encourage you to have hope, even if your situation seems utterly hopeless.

An intimate look at movie star Steve McQueen''s reckless life of fast cars, women, and drugs all the way up to his dramatic life-change and terminal cancer diagnosis. Join Greg Laurie as he takes a cross-country drive in his 1968 Highland Green Ford Mustang 390 GT through the canyons of Malibu, the alleys of Hollywood, the wide and open roads of the Midwest, and the streets of New York as he traces the woolly geography of actor Steve McQueen''s life, relationships, career, and spiritual journey. This iconic muscle car was the vehicle McQueen drove in his most raucous and enduring film, Bullitt. In the 1960s, McQueen was, according to box office receipts, the biggest movie star of his generation and one of the coolest men to ever walk the planet. Greg Laurie was a teen at the time and an ardent fan of "The King of Cool," first mesmerized by McQueen in 1963''s The Great Escape. Like millions of cinema fans, Greg developed a lifelong fascination with the actor. Now he has a chance to tell McQueen''s story. McQueen was a complex, contradictory man who lived the same way he drove his motorcycles and cars: fearlessly, ruthlessly, and at top speed. After a lifetime of fast cars, women, and drugs, McQueen took a surprising detour. In this book, Laurie thoughtfully interviews Steve McQueen''s friends, co-stars, associates, widow, and pastor to tell of the dramatic life-change for the actor in the spring of 1979--six months before McQueen was diagnosed with terminal cancer. What were the critical steps that led McQueen to make such a life-altering decision? Perhaps more importantly, why is that part of his story so rarely told? This book answers these questions. Greg Laurie will follow the seeds of Christianity that were sown throughout McQueen''s improbable life where a Light finally shone into the darkness of his troubled life. These seeds miraculously germinated, allowing McQueen to see that redemption through Jesus Christ is a lasting truth more glittering and real than any magic of the entertainment industry.

Understand, this book is not written to make you feel bad or condemn you if you have not engaged others with the gospel message. This book is written to encourage and inspire you. Even though pastor and author Greg Laurie is a “gospel-presenting professional,” in this book he tells stories of his own failure and success. The most important things you will find here are biblical principles that you can apply yourself. Taken from the life and witness of Jesus, and tested over Greg’s forty years of ministry, in both one-on-one experiences and large-scale evangelistic arena and stadium events, these ideas are intended to mobilize every person in the church to “Tell Someone” about Jesus Christ.

Our lives here are so often cluttered with the "cares of this world" that we fail to consider heavenly priorities and how they should be reflected in our earthly ones. At the beginning of Jesus'' most famous prayer, He teaches us to pray that God''s will "be done on earth as it is in heaven". What heaven is up to is critical for us to understand if we''re going to live biblically. Pastor Greg Laurie explains that heaven is anything but a long, boring church service. People in heaven know about the time and place of ongoing events on earth. They are rational and recall everything from their earthly days, but most importantly for us, they have a unique perspective from which we can learn a great deal. In this rich and relevant study, Greg sheds scriptural light on the sensational books and stories about people going to heaven and coming back, answers the nagging questions we are all dying to ask, and guides us to focus—right now—on what really matters.

Greg Laurie''s Essentials Bible Study examines the fundamental aspects of the Christian life.

The mission of the early church is our mission today.

Is there hope for America? YES, but... ...don’t bother looking for it in a fresh set of politicians, a turn-around of the economy, or a resurgence of military might. Our hope as a nation—in fact, our very survival—turns on our relationship with the living God, the God of our founding fathers. Will America experience revival...or will we be one more failed nation on the ash heap of history? Greg Laurie shows how the revival that will change America begins with the church...and each one of us.

How Strong is Hope?

A biblical worldview is the belief that an all-knowing, all-loving, all-powerful, and righteous God is in control of the universe and has an individual plan for your life, revealed in Scripture.

Evangelist Greg Laurie calls all Christians back to radical New Testament living in his latest offering, Let God Change Your Life. Imagine what it would have been like to be a follower of Jesus; first-century Christians walked away from their old lives just to be where He was. What they learned, sitting at His feet, was discipleship. And when His work on earth was done, first-century Christians took His words and example and spread out, teaching the gospel to everyone. The good news is that we, too, can participate in this lifestyle. Laurie drills it down in three simple ideas: get to know Jesus, follow His plan for discipleship, and use it to tell others what we know. Laurie’s tone is clear, direct, and biblical.

Using personal experience and biblical examples, well-known pastor Greg Laurie illustrates how prayer works in different people''s lives. In spiritual terms, Jacob wrestled with God for years. The Syro-Phoenician Woman also wrestled with Jesus, but briefly, her argument arising from a wholly different situation. Yet God brought them both to roughly the same kind of relationship with Himself. He softened Jacob''s will and rewarded his submission; He honored the woman''s determination and rewarded her resolve. Through these examples, readers will discover how heartfelt prayer and willing submission can bring them into their own unique, rewarding relationships with God.

Story Behind the Book “Over the years, I have done a lot of funerals and memorial service. I have visited people who were literally at death’s door, and I can tell you that when life comes to an end, there are three things that will really matter to you: faith, family, and friends. Of number-one importance will be your faith, your relationship with God. I have heard more people say with regret, ‘I wish I had spent more time walking closely with God. I wish I had made more time for spiritual things.’ They recognize the fact that they will stand before God Almighty. How sad it is when people realize they have squandered their lives. This book is about helping you avoid that regret.” —Greg Laurie
