LIVING THE CROSS CENTERED LIFE Keeping the Gospel the Main Thing

Lloyd James’s resonant voice explores the author's heartfelt teaching of why the cross is central to belief in Jesus and why it stands at the center of Christian faith. Mahaney strips away nonessentials and brings listeners back to the simple, fundamental reason for faith: Jesus Christ, and the need to develop a personal relationship with him. James's deft narration captures five practical ways to live a cross-centered life: scripture memorization, prayer, singing, Bible study, and reflection of how God has changed one in the past as a reminder of his ever-flowing mercy and grace. With warmth and empathy, James encourages listeners to learn more of the cross’s power and its benefits, which are available to all believers in their walk with Christ.
