Concepts and Values of Christian Living

By Dennis Russell

This book was written for you to support your relationship with God. Full of concepts and values that have uplifted many people after reading and studying, I hope as you read this book, it does the same for you. May God bless you. This book has wonderful, sometimes humorous, advice for Christian living. I love how each concept is followed by the values we should strive for. Then, the Bible reference with chapter and verse of several scriptures to back them up. You will find the Lord in this book, encouraging you, challenging you, and loving you. - Jill Tustin Recently I had the privilege of reading "Concepts & Values of Christian Living". This book is written by Dennis Russell and contains his collection of Concepts and Values that are supported by scriptural solutions and explanations. I believe it is a tool that any church can use in their Sunday school rooms, and for new convert Discipleship programs. Refreshingly so, it is not filled with personal opinions it's biblical teachings to help seasoned teachers and young Christians. - Reverend Edward Ramsey, Evangelist, First Church of God Concepts and Values of Christian Living is a timely book filled with much good advice for anyone desiring to live a Godly life in this age. - Robert Bockey Concepts and values of Christian Living is an excellent book for training young and old in living a life that will enable them to please God and also to live harmoniously with their fellow man. - Martha Bockey

Chapter 1

1. Act as If, Feel as If, Be as If

Values: Compliance, Initiative, Risk-Taking

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwells in me I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the Law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the Law of sin which is in my members. (Rom. 7:18–23, KJV)

2. Take Time to Read, for It Is the Foundation of Wisdom

Values: Growth, Learning, Knowledge-Sharing

And that from a child you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto Salvation through Faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for Doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in Righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. (2 Tim. 3:15–17, KJV)
