Sinossi

In "Parables of the Christ-life", I. Lilias Trotter presents a profound exploration of the spiritual dimensions inherent in everyday life. Employing a lyrical and evocative literary style, Trotter weaves together personal narratives, biblical insights, and metaphorical reflections that illuminate the essence of Christ's teachings. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, a time of burgeoning modernism and spiritual seeking, the text invites readers to re-evaluate their own lives in light of Christ's parables, employing artful prose that resonates with both depth and accessibility. Lilias Trotter, a notable figure in Christian literature and missions, was influenced by her deep commitment to faith, art, and social justice. An accomplished artist, she chose to dedicate her talents to missionary work, particularly among the people of Algeria. Her experiences in the field, combined with her rich artistic background, profoundly informed her reflections in "Parables of the Christ-life", thus providing readers with an intimate glimpse into her spiritual journey and the convictions that drove her. This compelling book is recommended for those seeking to deepen their understanding of Christian parables and their application in daily life. Trotter's passionate insights and reflections endeavor to inspire readers to embrace a life embodying the principles of Christ, making it a transformative read for anyone on a quest for spiritual growth.

Do Not Be True to Yourself -...

Kevin DeYoung

Countercultural Yet Biblical Advice for High School and College Students, Ideal for Graduation and Birthday Gifts
Most speeches addressed to high school and college students follow a similar theme: march to the beat of your own drum. This may sound encouraging on the surface, but Scripture exhorts believers to submit their lives to the will of God, not their own desires. Christian students need gospel-centered truth to guide them on their journey toward independence.
In this collection of inspiring sermons and graduation speeches, Kevin DeYoung delivers a motivational, biblical call to young people: serve God faithfully—and if necessary, counter-culturally—in the next season of your life. Do Not Be True to Yourself includes practical advice for cultivating a Christ-centered worldview in every area of adult life, including relationships, work, church participation, and spiritual growth, making it a transformational resource for mentoring students. 

- Written by Kevin DeYoung: Pastor and bestselling author shares relevant wisdom from past commencement speeches and sermons
- Concise, Engaging Chapters of Counter-Cultural Advice: Christ-centered guidance that includes developing spiritual habits, prioritizing church attendance, fighting sexual sin, and temptation, and making godly decisions. 
- Includes Reading Guide: DeYoung suggests 12 classic Christian books every person should read, from writers including John Calvin, G. K. Chesterton, and R. C. Sproul 
- Perfect for graduation gifts, birthdays, or small group discussion
