A Holy Ambition
by John Piper
Download book

Note: The display and/or download of this book is for personal use only and it may not be distributed, duplicated, or used for any commercial purpose.

This book is intended to cultivate an ambition to preach Christ where He has not yet been heard. Jesus’ Great Commission to make disciples of all nations is still in effect, and with thousands of people groups still not reached this is still a need to take the gospel where it has never gone before.

As well as the main book there is also a study guide available on the same page.

To get the free pdf download of “A Holy Ambition” simply go to the Desiring God website at this link and then select the ‘Download(PDF)’ or ‘Download this book (PDF)’ link.

Don Moen
Hear us from heaven
Download | Don Moen Website

Bible Study Magazine is providing a free mp3 from Don Moen’s latest album (Uncharted Territory). The song, Somebody’s Praying For Me, is a very personal song that Don Moen wrote while going through a difficult time in his life, but was encouraged by the prayers of others.

Just provide you email at the end of the page to get the song.

The other Don Moen song (Hear us from Heaven) I feature is one of the most popular posts here at free Christian resources, so you might also want to check that out too…

Some of the key changes are:

• Bible verses are now linked to the ESV Bible Website to allow them to be quickly looked up.
• Hyperlinks to the scripture index at the end , allowing users to quickly see where verses are used.
• Various improvements to hyper linking throughout the chapters to aid navigating through the various subheadings
• A “quick reference” page ­with hyperlinks to all the chapters and other key sections
• Improved layout to improve readability

Considering this free pdf study guide weighs in at just under 1900 page, these are important changes. To navigate a pdf that big otherwise would be very difficult most of us, but with these improvements it is easy to move through to the section you need. Of course, as it is a pdf you can also search for specific words that way too.

You can get the new in-depth guide from this page, or if you would prefer something easier then look at the other options available.
