    About this audiobook

    Pleasing God is a practical resource for Christian living that inspires believers to seek the greatest honor of anyone's lifetime--to have the privilege of pleasing God.

    Christ's total forgiveness means that we do not have to earn our salvation. When we give our lives to Jesus, we are justified by faith alone. Good works are not required. Prayer is not required. Practicing total forgiveness is not required. Wow--what a gift! But chances are, if you have been born again you want to do good works. You want to pray. You want to forgive and love your enemies. You desire to please God.

    In Pleasing God, bestselling author and well-known preacher, R.T. Kendall, unfolds the meaning of persistent faith. Starting with the story of Enoch, Dr. Kendall explores biblical teachings that call believers to "find out what pleases the Lord" (Ephesians 5:10).

    With biblical teaching, personal stories, and humble wisdom, Dr. Kendall answers these questions:

    • What pleases God (and what displeases Him)?
    • Why should we please God?
    • How should we please God?

    Imagine the joy and peace that will come from pleasing God more than seeking approval from others. The world needs this book!

    R. T. Kendall

    This thrilling volume will help readers prepare their hearts in expectation, be watchful for the approaching work of God, and build a deeper relationship with Him. Through Spirit-inspired teaching, respected scholar and theologian R. T. Kendall uses Jesus’s parable of the ten virgins to describe the condition of the church in the last days. Many Charismatics and Pentecostals assume that what we have seen in the one hundred years since Azusa Street is the final movement of God before the Second Coming. Kendall explains that this is not so and reveals that a movement of the Holy Spirit, which is one hundred times greater than anything yet experienced — indeed the greatest since Pentecost — is about to unfold. It’s time to wake up! ‘A timely warning . . . written with passion and conviction’ Ken Costa, Churchwarden, Holy Trinity Brompton, London ‘R. T. Kendall rightly calls us to hope and work for the day when the Word and Spirit will come together—and what a revival that will be!’ Dr. Craig Keener, Professor, New Testament History, Asbury Theological Seminary, USA
