Come Back to Jesus—and Don’t Bring Your Blackberry

Book Cover & Preview Text
Would it have ever occurred to you to think of Facebook, your new phone, or your fancy car as an Idol? If not, can you agree that these are time-stealers? There are so many little functional gods running around. In a sense we're uneducated about them; we are unable to recognize their presence in our lives or the lives of our friends. Because we are not sensitive to the way these gods form from something seemingly innocent, we don't know how to handle them when they crop up. So we allow them to take over. We may still worship God, but we serve another. Look over at the person who is texting in church and consider whether her obsession is blocking her worship of God.

About the Book
Have you drifted away from the faith? Or has life gotten in the way?

Dig deep into Scripture to find the answers that are already there waiting for you. Share more fully in the life of Christ. God wants to spend time with you; He’s already waiting for your response.
Come Back to Jesus offers a powerful, renewing experience that builds on the gifts God gave you for ministry. First, you will explore your life to find the time-stealers that keep you from worshipping God as much as you would like. Next, you’ll be able to root them out and start afresh with prayer, centering yourself in the Word. You can explore our wrong desires, things that could lead you back off the “narrow path.” You’ll have a chance to open up to God and practice being in His presence, remembering when He has been especially real for you.
