In Heroic Faith, you will meet and be inspired by biblical disciples who exemplify the foundation of the fruit of a heroic faith. And as you listen to the stories of these persecuted Christian brothers and sisters and realize that we are knit together—united by the blood and lordship of Christ—you will be inspired by how they live with heroic faith.

Using Jesus's words in John 15, "I am the vine; you are the branches," Andrew Murray explores how the believer abides in Christ. In a message as timely today as when first published in 1895, he urges listeners to yield themselves to Jesus, in order that they may know the "rich and full experience of the blessedness of abiding in Christ."

"And if someone asks about your hope as a believer, always be ready to explain it. But do this in a gentle and respectful way" (1 Peter 3:15-16, NLT). This book demonstrates again and again that talking about God is simple when we commit ourselves first to loving and listening to our friends. For people who are intimidated or fatigued by the idea of talking about matters of faith, Talking About God offers story after gripping story about faith conversations that avoid cliché and combativeness.
