Description

Do you ever wonder what your next step should be? If there is more to life? Do you crave something better?

More than security or wealth success or popularity, what we really need is to be loved, to matter. But with all our inner strength and the world’s create-your-own destiny attitude, with all our technology and know-how and savvy, we are helpless to truly satisfy that craving on our own.

God’s intention was never for us to have a dissatisfied, self-critical spirit. In His eyes, each of us is irreplaceable, carefully crafted, designed for a unique and noble purpose. And He is determined to reach us. Throughout the ages, amid all of the world’s selfish rebellion, unthinkable corruption, ugly swirl of violence, and abject godlessness, the Lord God has shown that He works in a consistent and beautiful way. He draws close to us. He enters our existence. God reaches into our lives, turns us around, and fulfills every desperate, yearning, miserable need.

God offers us grace. Pure, lavish, unending grace. Discover the life you crave.

What people are saying about, The Life You Crave

No matter what difficulties you are going through, this book will embolden you to put your hope in God. It will remind you that you are safe in God’s hands and deeply loved by Him. Let this inspiring book inspire you!

James C. Galvin, Ed.D., author and consultant, Galvin & Associates, Inc.

Once again, Michael Newman demonstrates his prowess at tapping into the vein of our humanity and connecting it to profound truths from God made simple for our understanding. The Life You Crave will draw you in because it asks the universal questions of humanity, pulls on the strings in everybody’s heart, and invites them to find thirst-quenching relief in the work of God through Jesus.

Mike Sharrow, AfC, Managing Chairman, C12 Group of Central Texas

In his very clear and relational style, where God’s will and grace for every human being always walk side by side, Mike paints for us a picture of who God is and how He gets involved in our daily lives, who and whose we are, and what we’re are here on earth for.

Beatriz Hoppe, Multicultural Ministries, Lutheran Hour Ministries

In a world that craves everything but this, Newman gently persuades the reader to look more deeply at things, to look more intently at things, to see one’s life from God’s point of view for the life you need, the life we should crave above all else. You won’t be disappointed with this book because in it you’ll read about an eternal love from God that exists just for you, about a Savior whose gracious love makes an abundant, purposeful, dynamic eternal life possible for all who know and put their trust in Him. (For this, crave on!)

Rev. Gregory Seltz, speaker, The Lutheran Hour

Give yourself permission to be surprised by this book when you feel the joy and power in God’s love language “My grace is sufficient” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Yes, it’s all about grace.

Eunice Otte, licensed professional counselor

I have known and have respected Rev. Michael Newman for over 15 years, and I am blessed to have him as a friend. His books have helped open my eyes in many ways. If you have missed any of his books, read this one and you will know the blessings of faith that he shares with his readers.

Gloria Jean Kvetko, Gloria Jean’s Coffees

I’ve pulled alongside many a craving in the human heart and laud Mike Newman for once again redirecting our imaginations to the potential God has in mind for us.

Phyllis Wallace, host of the syndicated “Woman to Woman” radio show

I have had the awesome experience of witnessing Pastor Newman preach, and I’ve also read his books. He has a tremendous ability to weave our everyday events with happenings in the Bible. Never more has this skill been on display than in this book.
