The Abide Factor

A Biblically-based approach to living an abundant life and bearing fruit in Christ

Praises for 'The Abide Factor'

I highly recommend the book The Abide Factor by Shawn Lyons. The practical wisdom he shares in this book will help you cultivate a harvest of God’s blessings in all areas of your life. You just need to put it into practice. I appreciate the simple, down to earth way he explains how to abide in Christ. John 15 is one of my favorite chapters in the Bible, where Jesus states that a branch cannot be fruitful on its own, it must abide in the vine. Likewise, the only way for our lives to bear fruit is to abide or remain in Jesus. Apart from Him we can do nothing. By applying the principles outlined in this short book, your life will bear much fruit. Fruit that will last!

Shawn Lyons’ The Abide Factor will bring much-needed clarity not only to what ABIDING IS but HOW to ABIDE in Christ! We all know that Abiding will bless us, that it is good for us - but many don’t know HOW TO ABIDE! After reading The Abide Factor, you will be encouraged by the power of it while also being challenged to actually DO IT! John’s second epistle says, ‘those who do not abide in the teachings of Christ, do not have God’ - so knowing how to ABIDE is extremely crucial for every believer!

It is a clear and concise teaching about how to truly abide in Christ and about the incredible blessings that happen as a result.

This book is a game changer. The end of the book breaks down step by step what it looks like to abide in Christ in every area of your life.

The stories in this book are true and so inspiring. One of the stories is written by Dave Grimm who is a dear friend of mine. I’ve personally seen his story happen before my eyes and I know it is
