Learn to Live with Style

Can other people tell the Christian by the way they live their daily lives? ... Is there a distinctive Christian life-style? ... Does it have to be goody-goody? repressed? dull? No, says Elieen Guder, living the Christian Lifestyle is not a matter of following a list of restrictive rules or giving up your individuality. Consider Jesus and Paul, for example; they were anything but dull, and they had dynamic qualities that people noticed and responded to. In Learn to Live with Style, Eileen Guder draws on Paul's Letter to the Galatians to spell out one by one those qualities which give the Christian authentic style - self-control, love, tolerance, joy, faithfulness, peace, generosity, patience, kindness. She show how focusing on these qualities enables us to take the absolutes of the Bible and put them to work every day of our lives. Learn to Live with Style offers mind-stretching insights and immediately practical guidelines for living out the Christian so "people know we're around." This is a book to be read, reread, and discussed with others as we strive to become more fully what God always meant us to be. --- from book's back cover
