Gradually Then Suddenly
$26.00
True success doesn’t happen overnight. The New York Times bestselling author of Win the Day reveals a life-changing truth about achievement: God is building you up steadily so you’re ready for overnight success.
“How did you go bankrupt?” Ernest Hemingway wrote in The Sun Also Rises. The answer? “Two ways: gradually then suddenly.” In this illuminating book, Mark Batterson reveals that this principle applies not just to failure, but to every area of life–especially success. Readers will identify the consistent, faithful steps they need to be taking now to set the stage for future breakthroughs.
Drawing from biblical wisdom, historical examples, and his nearly thirty years of leadership experience, Batterson shows how success happens at the speed of a seed rather than the speed of light. With compelling stories and profound insights, he demonstrates that what appears to be an “overnight” success is actually the culmination of consistent choices and persistent faith.
Gradually, Then Suddenly reveals:
*The Power of Persistence: Why staying in the game and trusting God for the results is often the difference between failure and breakthrough
*Cathedral Thinking: How taking the long view changes your daily decisions and life trajectory
*The Compound Effect: How small, faithful actions accumulate into life-changing results
*Convictions vs. Opinions: Why deep conviction in God that drives consistent action matters more than changing opinions
For anyone feeling discouraged by slow progress or wondering if their faithfulness matters, Gradually, Then Suddenly offers the encouraging truth that God is working behind the scenes through your daily obedience to prepare you for moments of dramatic breakthrough.

Think Like Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$13.99In this eight-session video Bible study (DVD and digital downloads sold separately), pastor and author Randy Frazee explains that when Jesus saves us and ushers us into his kingdom, he begins a process of transformation within us that starts with our thoughts. As God begins to transform our minds, we begin to think like Jesus and believe like Jesus. For this reason, it is important for us to understand the eight key beliefs of the Christian faith that-when embraced in our hearts and minds-create true change in our lives, in the church, and in the world:
*I believe the God of the Bible is the one true God-Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
*I believe God is involved in and cares about my daily life.
*I believe we come into a right relationship with God, by his grace, through faith in Jesus.
*I believe the Bible is the Word of God and has the right to command my beliefs and actions.
*I believe I am significant because of my position as a child of God.
*I believe the church is God’s primary way to accomplish his purposes on earth today.
*I believe all people are loved by God and need Jesus Christ as their Savior.
*I believe that Jesus will return to judge all people and establish his eternal kingdom.Grounded in carefully selected scripture, Think Like Jesus is a churchwide discipleship program that will take you on a journey to become more like Jesus in your beliefs. This revised study, adapted from Part 1 of the Believe churchwide study, includes an updated video study and new content and questions adapted from the existing Believe Study Guide and Think, Act, Be Like Jesus by Randy Frazee.
