What Really Matters
Have the extremities taken over and left the core of your faith forgotten? Do you get confused by what you feel versus what is real? Let dynamic pastor C. J. Mahaney strip away the nonessentials and bring you back to the simplest, most fundamental reason for your faith: Jesus Christ. This book is packed with powerful truth that will grip your heart, clear your mind, and invigorate your soul. Chapters include “Breaking the Rules of Legalism,” “The Cross Centered Day,” and “Assurance and Joy.” Get ready to behold a breathtaking view of what God intends to accomplish in and through you every day. You’ll discover how embracing this cross centered life is both our highest privilege and greatest responsibility.

His Gift, Your Hope
Do you desire more passion for Jesus Christ? Return to the very essence of your faith—the cross of Christ. Here, the deepest truths of Calvary will stir your passion for Him into an unquenchable fire.

“Never lay it aside. Never move on,” says C. J. Mahaney, who shows you how to center every day around the life-giving reality of the gospel and how to escape the pitfalls of legalism, condemnation, and feelings-driven faith.

PRAISE
C. J. Mahaney’s The Cross Centered Life and Christ Our Mediator are life-changing books whose unique messages are even more powerful when combined. Living the Cross Centered Life is a careful melding of these two books with new content as well. For readers who have not yet discovered the stand-alone books, or for Mahaney fans ready to cherish their favorites in a new package, this book is sure to become a treasured classic.

Format:Hardcover
This book, like all of C. J.’s others is grace filled, cross centred, and Christ exalting.
Both Biblical and immensely practical, filled with humour and passion, it is simply a joy to read.
This book will bring you closer to the Cross and the atoning work of Jesus Christ.
I can not recommend this book highly enough to any Christian.
The message of this book (and his others) have transformed my life and love for the saviour.
If you are going to read one book this year, this is the one you need, it’s message will change your life.

Short and Sovereign! 15 July 2010
Format:Hardcover
Not that I mean to imply that this book itself is sovereign, but its contents are: and what is a book without its contents? This book is full of short, simple truth. It honours Jesus Christ and His work on the Cross. It is very easy to read and is perfect for a brand new Christian. It cuts through all the pathetic, powerless rubbish that is published in the name of Christianity today, and heads straight to the gospel. This book especially convicted me of legalism and God helped me get through that.

If you are seeking a magnificent but very challenging book on the Cross, I strongly recommend John Owen's 'The Death of Death in the Death of Christ'.

A little gem! 13 Mar 2010
Format:Hardcover
The Christian life is a life-long struggle and it is very easy to become despondent and confused in our thinking, mainly due to three tendencies we all face:

1. Subjectivism, which means basing our view of God on our changing feelings and emotions.

2. Legalism, which means basing our relationship with God on our own performance.

3. Condemnation, which means being more focused on our sin than on God's grace.

The author cuts a swathe through these, and other issues using simple, direct and heart-warming language which leaves the reader focusing instead on the only place where true assurance and joy can be found on an ongoing basis - the all-sufficient work of Christ on the cross.

This book has been a real blessing to me, and it surely deserves a place on every Christian's (and indeed non-Christian's!) bookshelf.

On a daily basis were faced with two simple choices. We can either listen to ourselves and our constantly changing feelings about our circumstances, or we can talk to ourselves about the unchanging truth of who God is and what Hes accomplished for us at the cross through His Son Jesus. &quote;
