Publisher's summary
A new book in the religion/spirituality market informs listeners about the most enormous and longest competition the world has ever seen: the Christian Olympics, otherwise known as the "Christian race" that the Apostle Paul wrote about nearly 2,000 years ago.
In The Christian Olympics: Going for the Gold Crowns, author S. E. Gregg unveils the Bible's comparison of the Christian race to the Olympic Games.
Paul wrote to a Hellenistic culture - one steeped in Greek philosophy, culture, and athletics - and so for the Christians of his day, marathon footraces run by Greek Olympians provided the perfect metaphor for the endurance, longevity, and persistence needed to successfully finish the race of faith. Those who do, Gregg reminds us, will receive crowns of gold from the Lord himself.
A new understanding of and exhilaration for the Christian life, pursued with the vigor of a spiritual athlete, will help listeners to endure their problems and suffering. As a result, Gregg hopes to stoke the fires of passionate living for God and encourage listeners to look forward to what is ahead.
Weaving in applications for both individuals and families, Gregg developed biblical strategies to help us run our races well, just as athletes develop game plans to help them win their competitions. Gregg examines the rich comparative examples Paul gave us in the Epistles: The lighting of the flame at the Olympics is reminiscent of the fire of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, which was the divine opening ceremony. When the book of Hebrews says to "run the race with patience", it is referring to actual marathon footraces popular in the Greco-Roman culture. Just as successful ancient Olympians received crowns made of laurel leaves, believers who run the race of faith to the finish line will receive crowns of gold at the closing and rewards ceremonies in the sky!

Story
The God of the universe - the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor - loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn’t working harder at a list of do's and don'ts - it's falling in love with God.

More of God is about moving beyond faith. It is about getting more of God and experiencing more of God. Every book in the Bible, especially the books of the New Testament, is written for this purpose. Take the letters; those who are addressed were already saved. But the writers wanted their hearers to experience not just more knowledge about God but more of God. Everything in this book is designed to make you hungry. As you listen, keep in mind that the ever increasing hunger for more of God is from God.

There are far too many Christians who are walking around dejected, depressed, hopeless, powerless, and in bondage to the flesh. Yet this is not what the Christian life is or should be. Though we will experience difficulties, in the midst of these things we are not powerless and without hope. The most powerful thing we can do in our lives is pray. Join Pastor Carter in this book as he looks at the lesson Jesus gives us in Mark 9 - along with some of his own personal experiences and testimonies - and how it relates to us, our walk with God, and our impact on the world.

Moved by this discovery, in a 10-year span, he read over 400 books on spiritual warfare and counseled hundreds of families under satanic attack, soon emerging as a spiritual warfare expert. Reclaiming Surrendered Ground represents the insights gained in those years of study and ministry, and it contains the principles he turned to repeatedly in counseling families.

Imagine what it would have been like to be a follower of Jesus: first-century Christians walked away from their old lives just to be where He was. What they learned, sitting at His feet, was discipleship. And when His work on earth was done, first-century Christians took His words and example and spread out, teaching the gospel to everyone. The good news is that we, too, can participate in this lifestyle.

Story
The God of the universe - the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor - loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn’t working harder at a list of do's and don'ts - it's falling in love with God.

Story
Author Jim Logan used to think spiritual warfare was a radical idea. That was before he realized just how real it was, especially in the lives of families. Moved by this discovery, in a 10-year span, he read over 400 books on spiritual warfare and counseled hundreds of families under satanic attack, soon emerging as a spiritual warfare expert. Reclaiming Surrendered Ground represents the insights gained in those years of study and ministry, and it contains the principles he turned to repeatedly in counseling families.

Story
Pastor and speaker Shane Pruitt guides listeners in identifying the Christian cliches we've all heard that are actually unbiblical lies. He then counters with the truths about God as presented in the Bible - truths that bring encouragement and freedom for our lives. God won't give you more than you can handle. Really? Pastor and speaker Shane Pruitt shines a light on this and other Christian cliches that upon further inspection are actually unbiblical lies that keep far too many believers stuck in spiritual immaturity.

Perfect for anyone seeking a bump in the right direction!
I was given a copy of this tittle in exchange for my unbiased review. This is a wonderfully written book! It is an eye opener for a seasoned Christian and would be a great foundation to a new believer as well. This is a must have title for those looking to refresh their walk with the Father and gain new perspective on what we are supposed to be doing, what our purpose should be and what goals we should all strive to achieve. I would highly recommend every Christian give this a listen! I am sure I will listen again and again! The reading of this title is clear and fluid. I enjoyed listening!

Enrich Your Faith
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. It definitely makes you think about your faith and how to endure in the Great Race.
Any additional comments?
Having narrated the book, I can say with authority that I read it probably a lot more carefully than most. I love books that make me think. S.E. Gregg made me think hard about my faith. She revealed things in The Christian Olympics that I never realized. We are all participants in the Great Race. Some are maintaining their easy stride, some are limping along, some barely walking. I think I've been in all three in different times in my life. If you want to get to the finish line with those golden crowns waiting for you, you'll do yourself a big favor by reading this book. It'll challenge you for sure!
