Product Description

When God speaks, how close to the edge do you get' God wants us sitting on the edge of our 'life seats,' leaning forward to pay attention to His word. To really live this Christian life 'on the edge,' Pastor Chip Ingram teaches that we must be eagerly anticipating what God will do next, ready and willing to fully participate. Drawing wisdom from the life of Nehemiah, Pastor Ingram masterfully leads readers through six key components to achieving a life lived with a biblical perspective and an eternal purpose:

1.Developing a dislocated heart

2.Experiencing a broken spirit

3.Practicing a radical faith

4.Creating a strategic plan

5.Exercising personal commitment

6.Growing a courageous soul

From the Back Cover

What God is seeking, what He’s looking for are not the brightest and the best. God is looking for people who are willing to live on the edge. People who so long to see God’s agenda fulfilled in this fallen world that they attempt what seems impossible, ridiculous and “outside the box,” for God’s glory.

“With piercing honesty and ‘in-your-face’ conviction, Chip Ingram challenges believers to make a difference for God. Using the Old Testament model of Nehemiah he offers hope to dislocated hearts, broken spirits and all of us. I highly recommend it for the development of a Holy Ambition!” -Dr. Joseph Stowell, former president of Moody Bible Institute

“After all the shallow books on leadership, we finally have a biblical, balanced model in Chip Ingram’s fascinating study of Nehemiah!” -Rick Warren, Author, The Purpose Driven Church
