Kingdom Impact: Living Like Jesus in a Broken World

In Matthew 13, Jesus tells the parable of a man who stumbles across a treasure hidden in a field. He goes home, sells everything he has, and buys that field to own that treasure. This is what the kingdom of heaven is, Jesus says--a treasure worth everything.

But the truth is, for most of us, our enthusiasm is often wrapped more deeply around a football team or the latest TV show than what God is doing through us. Lacking a purpose calling to the deepest parts of us, we numb ourselves. In this eye-opening, empowering book, pastor and author Putty Putman shows that there is a kingdom designed to provide your life with such compelling purpose that you will reorient your whole life around it. Here is your invitation into a life of significance, adventure, and wonder far beyond what you have let yourself dare to dream.

Embrace the Passionate Faith That Will Change Your World

God has something wonderful in store that you might never have considered--a place where your energy and enthusiasm can build toward a fulfilling future. How to find this place? By knowing God more deeply and following the way Jesus demonstrated. But for most of us, our passion is wrapped around earthbound ideals rather than the goals the Holy Spirit wants to accomplish in partnership with us. The result? We grow numb to His calling and gifts.

In this empowering, life-changing book, pastor and author Putty Putman reveals a Kingdom with such compelling purpose that you will long to reorient your walk of faith around it.

Here is your invitation into significance, adventure and wonder far beyond what you have dared to dream.
