Jesus Speaks: Learning to Recognize and Respond to the Lord's Voice

By Frank Viola and Leonard Sweet

Book Overview

Are you hungry to hear God's voice, but don't know how? Jesus Speaks teaches readers how to listen for the voice of Jesus and how you can grow in your ability to recognize and respond to his voice daily.

While the Lord frequently speaks to us, we don't really hear his voice until we recognize it. In Jesus Speaks, Sweet and Viola unpack the many ways the Lord speaks to his people today by exploring how the disciples interacted with the risen Jesus--from the Gospels to Revelation. They demystify the process in a warm, practical way, providing insights on how you can recognize the voice of Jesus in your own life.

Separated into two sections, the first provides a big-picture look at how the resurrected Jesus spoke in the New Testament, while the second contains short, actionable chapters filled with scriptural quotes and references. Both sections work together to help you recognize and respond to the voice of Jesus in your everyday life.

Readers will be able to:

Gain a firm foundation in the scriptures, learning how Jesus spoke to his disciplesDispel myths and misinformation surrounding what it means to hear the voice of Jesus todayGrow the ability to recognize God's voice and learn how to respond

Essential for Christians seeking to improve their relationship with Jesus, Jesus Speaks is the long-awaited third volume in the JESUS trilogy: Jesus Manifesto; Jesus: A Theography; and Jesus Speaks.

Whoa!!!

I found out after purchasing this one that this is the third in the trilogy on Jesus, following Jesus Manifesto and Jesus: A Theography. The author says that Jesus is always speaking to us, it is up to us to recognize His voice. I must admit some days His voice for me is clearer than others. As you read this book it not another one of those books that you can gobble up and then claim to know, this book is a masterclass of connected-ness and relationship. I absolutely loved this read.
