Faith for Life, Inspiration From The Ordinary Heroes Of Hebrews 11

As Christians, we experience great joy in knowing God through Jesus and great hope in the promise of an eternity spent with God. Yet we still get weary in this life and can feel discouraged. Whether it's personal disappointment, opposition or just the costly grind of church life that gets us down, we all need help to keep going. This wonderfully encouraging book by Bible teacher Richard Coekin will spur you on to live by faith in Jesus as you examine the witnesses of Hebrews 11. The refreshing honesty of their stories will help you manage your expectations in a world of lies and spin. They will remind you of the glory and blessing that await you at the finishing line. And they will encourage you to see that Jesus is the real Hero of the faith and that his Spirit will enable you to endure through exhaustion, opposition and discouragement. Ideal for private devotional reading for those in need of refreshment, a timely gift for a discouraged Christian friend, and useful background reading to a small-group study of Hebrews 11.

‘This book is another example of Richard’s passion and refreshing ability to make the Bible come alive. In a world of celebrities, it is so important for every Christian to understand that God uses ordinary people, people who are largely unnoticed in the affairs of the world, to accomplish his eternal purposes. Despite the blood, sweat and tears of serving God in this broken world, Hebrews 11 reminds us that, in God’s book of eternal life, he has noted every act or word spoken in the cause of Christ. If you find yourself tired or discouraged in serving God, this is the book for you! I cannot recommend it more highly!’ Martin Morrison, Pastor, Christ Church Midrand, Johannesburg, SA; Chairman, The Gospel Coalition Africa
