Living @ the Next Level - by B Courtney McBath (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In this guide to welcoming God into your life right where you are, senior founding pastor of Calvary Revival Church in Norfolk, Virginia, B. Courtney McBath, urges readers to reevaluate their goals while working towards a friendship-based relationship with God in order to experience the maximum fulfillment of faith.

It is no secret that we easily embrace the common misconception that we must always strive to reach the elusive "next level" of life. No matter how hard we try, what we long for--in our homes, relationships, careers, and even spiritual lives--constantly seems just beyond reach.

Living @ the Next Level turns the common view of fulfillment inside out by showing readers that creating a friendship with God is the next level. As God's friends, we've already arrived, and every moment we spend straining to "get there" is a missed opportunity to explore God more fully and connect with him more deeply.

The pages of this book offer an alternative to living in frustration and despair by learning to experience the richness of God's friendship right where you are. Following the apostle Peter along a dramatic stretch of Peter's journey, B. Courtney McBath unpacks scriptural principles and truths that illuminate God's ability to transform the circumstances we face and make our limitations work for our good.
