{"product_id":"need-to-know-isbn-9781784984427","title":"Need to Know","description":"I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Gary Millar has given us that rare combination, an accessible book written in a warm, engaging, realistic style but with content that has a depth arising from a thorough and thoughtful biblical and theological understanding. It will be a thoroughly useful book and I commend it warmly. | In this engaging little book, Gary Millar is able to communicate, with good humor, colorful illustrations, and biblical faithfulness, the most significant truths a person needs to know to live out the Christian life. I anticipate giving plenty copies of this book away to people wanting to understand the basics of life in Christ. | Gary Millar’s book on living the Christian life is the first book I would give to new Christians (and it can help older Christians too!). People read less today, but here we have a compact and winsome explanation of what it means to be a Christian. Don’t let the simplicity of Millar’s writing style fool you. There is deep and profound and life-changing theology in this book, and it is perfect for discipling new believers. | I have been a Christian for sixty years, and I benefited from this book for beginners, and loved being challenged and encouraged by it. I wish I had been given it when I started out, but it would be worth reading at any stage. | It’s overwhelming to think of all the things I’d like to tell someone who is starting their journey of following Christ. I’m so glad Gary Millar wrote this book; he distills and explains what you need to know in a way that anyone can understand. This book is clear, faithful and relatable, and will be a joy to start giving away to friends! | Because more and more people who come to genuine faith in Christ have little or no Christian background, it is becoming more and more important to orientate them to Christian life and thought. What is needed is something of a cross between a gentle introduction to basic Christian belief and a ‘how-to’ manual. This book is it. | Gary Millar may be trained as an Old Testament scholar, but he has always had an eye on the practical questions, concerns and needs of ordinary Christians. In this book, he does what he is most passionate about: explaining and applying the basic principles of the Christian faith in an accessible and attractive manner. This little book is as edifying as it is entertaining. | This book tells you what you need to know to live the Christian life, and it does it with clarity, honesty, realism, humour and graciousness. Millar’s style is very practical and down to earth. We’re left with a real sense of both the privilege and the responsibility it is to live for Jesus, and a clear idea of what this will look like in everyday life. | This is a concisely comprehensive little book. It provides so much for so many different kinds of people. Enlightenment for the suspicious. Challenge for the complacent. Guidance for the seeking. Instruction for the questioning. Refreshment for the forgetful (people like me). Gary not only tells but shows how the gospel is for everyone… and how anyone can take their next step forward. | If there is one profound yet simple book to read that will help you watch your life and doctrine closely, this is it. Gary Millar has written an engaging, Bible-saturated and Christ-exalting guide to the gospel-shaped life, which he clearly lives. | You were made to know and enjoy God. This book may be short and seemingly simple, but it will point you in the direction of solid and serious joy that begins now and lasts forever. Short doesn't mean trivial. This book addresses the most important quest in the universe, and Gary Millar is a good guide. | Gary Millar possesses a wonderful knack of getting quickly and simply to the heart of the matter. He is at his best in “Need to Know”. I read it to my profit and would love for it to become a standard text for our church family. | Gary Millar is the Principal of Queensland Theological College in Brisbane, Australia. He teaches Old Testament, Biblical Theology\u003cusonly\u003e,\u003c\/usonly\u003e and Preaching. Before taking up the post as Principal, he was a pastor for 17 years in both Ireland and Northern Ireland. He is married to Fiona, and they have three children.","brand":"The Good Book Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46143002018021,"sku":"NP9781784984427","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781784984427.4797b068.jpg?v=1748358989","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/need-to-know-isbn-9781784984427","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
