About this listen
Life is painful.
Everyone's story comes with unique challenges, difficulties, bumps, and bruises that leave you lost and drowning in their wake. It could be a financial disaster, a health issue, a broken relationship, or the loss of a loved one.
Dr. Tony Evans, best-selling author and pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship, understands life's hardships firsthand. In the span of less than two years, he lost his brother, sister, brother-in-law, two nieces, father, and wife. At the same time, both of his daughters received cancer diagnoses. In the wake of all this pain, Dr. Evans had to put into practice, at the deepest levels, the truths he has preached about God for more than 40 years.
God's word doesn't promise us a life free from pain and trouble. It promises us something else - someone else. Someone who will walk with us through all of life's trials and troubles.
There is hope for the hurting: His name is Jesus.

Living Water. Helper. Lord. The Holy Spirit may be the least discussed member of the Trinity, yet many believers long to better understand Him and the role He plays in our relationship with God.

In The Power of The Holy Spirit’s Names, bestselling author and pastor Dr. Tony Evans examines twelve of the Spirit’s most significant titles and what they reveal about this powerful, present, and personal expression of the triune God.

Good character produces good quality, individually and culturally. In light of the turmoil our society currently faces, this book is critical. In the midst of our busy and often chaotic lives, we sometimes forget the importance of building character qualities. By curating our values, we can rise up and fight against cultural instability, family breakdown, social media ranting, and narcissistic and grandiose personal promotions. Values to be discussed include integrity, excellence, authenticity, compassion, generosity, accountability, kindness, and many more.

Having the right focus makes all the difference in life. If we are busy focusing on external frivolities or personal ambitions rather than on the kingdom of God, we wind up missing out on serving God’s kingdom―as well as many of the other things we hope to attain in life. However, when we align our lives with God’s Word, we get to experience the greatest freedom we could ever know. In Kingdom Focus, Tony Evans teaches listeners how to focus on the things God Himself focuses on in Scripture and explores the issues that delight His heart.

God has a plan for your life. More often than not, it's a detour - one that can leave you feeling temporarily stalled and slowed down. Which nobody likes. But detours are necessary if any improvements are going to be made on the paths we travel. Or if any wreck is going to be cleaned up or a hazard avoided. Detours are designed for our own good, regardless of how we view or feel about them. Detours are a good thing that often feels bad. Tony knows a thing or two about detours.

different Bible verses of Hope
I've started listening to Pastor Tony Evans at mu Church. Watching different Bible studies. Listening to him gives me other Bible verses on the subjects this time it was on hope. I always learn so much by him very good way of teaching you how God wants you to live. This is the first audio book I have gotten by him I plan on getting more. The narrator was excellent his performance on reading Pastor Evans book.
Definitely will not be disappointed having this book in your library. It's a book that you can have read more then once and learn something new.

Broken but now I understand!
You can never go wrong with the doctor Evans book. A great man who is led by the Holy Spirit in every way. If you’re hurting this book is for you. If you need strength this book is for you. If you just love the Lord and don’t know why it’s happening this book is for you. The narrator read this book very clear and decisive in the sink of his voice. It all has to do with the author though. And the Holy Spirit more so. Thank you Dr. Tony Evans for all that you listen to the Lord for. Readers it’s a must read. Especially, if you’re hurting. Dr. Evans shows you. How the Lord will show up for you. You just have to sit and show up for him. The Lord that is. The Holy Spirit is always with you. An amazing book.
