Description

The apostle Paul writes that we are to be transformed, but for many Christians, figuring out how to approach spiritual transformation can be elusive. Best-selling author Jerry Bridges helps us understand that we have available to us the ultimate power source for true spiritual growth: the gospel.

In The Transforming Power of the Gospel, Bridges guides you through a thorough examination of:

  • What the biblical meaning of grace is and how it applies to your life
  • How Jesus’ work in His life and death applies to the believer in justification and adoption
  • Why basic spiritual disciplines are necessary for spiritual growth
  • What role the Holy Spirit plays in both definitive and progressive sanctification

Endorsements 

"Jerry Bridges loves the gospel and wants us to love it too, knowing that as the grace of God captures our hearts, it transforms our lives. As impossible and contradictory as it may seem, grace leads to godliness. I have learned so much of this gospel motivation from Jerry Bridges though the years, and I praise God for this new book that expresses the power of the gospel with such tender and compelling love for Christ." - Dr. Bryan Chapell, president, Covenant Seminary

"Jerry Bridges encourages God's people because he writes as one who is constantly discovering and delighting in the deep riches of the gospel. In this book, we hear of not just God's holiness but also His majestic mercy and the transforming power of His grace. Here, in accessible presence of the Spirit, and the real call of the believer to respond not in fear but in freedom." - Dr. Kelly M. Kapic, professor of theological studies, Covenant College
