Empty Promises Trailer- Full from Pete Wilson on Vimeo.
My sweet pastor, Pete Wilson has released his second book called "Empty Promises". Most of you know I'm a big fan of his first book, "Plan B" and I can't wait to read this new one!
Here are some words from Pastor Pete's blog today about his book "Empty Promises"...
"Today is a BIG day as over a year’s worth of work is finally coming to fruition and my second book, Empty Promises: The Truth About You, Your Desires, and the Lies You’re Believing, is releasing nationally.
This book is incredibly important to me because I think one of the biggest problems in Christianity today is that we mainly focus on “sin management.” We want to edit behaviors instead of change hearts, but I think Jesus made it clear that he wasn’t interested in us spending our time trying to perfect external Christianity.
We want to pretend like God just wants to rearrange a little furniture in the house or maybe dust it up a bit. But if you look out the window there’s God with a wrecking ball. You see the issues we face in our life go down to the very foundation.
Sure we can tell you…don’t be greedy, don’t be self preoccupied, don’t be sexually promiscuous, don’t be power hungry, don’t be addicted to approval. But what if we asked what it is about your heart that makes you want to chase after those things?
This book is not just about sin. It’s about the sin beneath the sin. It’s about what’s fundamentally broken in the human heart and how all of that can be healed in and through the person of Jesus."
You can purchase "Empty Promises" AND help our our organization "Beautiful Feet Global Outreach" at the same time by purchasing the book from Barnes and Noble through our Lambshops site TODAY!! .... I'm ordering mine right now!!
