Publisher's Description
Are you truly willing to risk everything? In Believing Jesus, Bible teacher and author Lisa Harper retraces the steps of the apostles in the book of Acts, while throwing in a few of her own crazy adventures along the way. The disciples didn’t have much of a road map after Jesus ascended to heaven, but God’s grace and spirit filled in the gaps as they moved forward. It required their willingness to risk everything to establish a new community that would change the future world. As a regular speaker on the Women of Faith ® tour, Lisa has earned a reputation as a true theological scholar and hilarious storyteller—not necessarily in that order! Best-selling author and pastor Max Lucado calls Lisa one of the “best Bible tour guides around.” Believing Jesus will highlight both of Lisa’s strengths as she tackles every chapter of the Book of Acts with biblical wisdom and modern wit. Lisa keeps it real, telling stories on herself and pointing readers back to Jesus, the only one who can truly lead.

“Praise for Believing Jesus Do you find yourself wanting to live a more daring, connected, and belief-fueled life? Then the book of Acts is a great road map for your journey, and Lisa Harper is the ideal tour guide. Lisa is deeply in love with the Giver and illustrates for us with her own life how the supernatural can cause the boundaries of our hearts to expand—so that we can lavishly love others the way we are first loved by the Father.”
“I can’t think of anyone I would rather walk through the book of Acts with than Lisa Harper. True to her reputation as one of the most gifted Bible teachers of our generation, she approaches this pivotal portion of Scripture with her unique ability to bring life to the pages with her wit. But don’t let that mislead you into thinking she’s not a scholar—she certainly is; she just has a way of wrapping the intimidating knowledge in a package that makes you feel like her friend more than her student. I’ve had the privilege of sitting under her teaching many, many times, and I have yet to walk away from any of her work without the distinct feeling that I learned as much as I laughed. There’s only one Lisa Harper, that’s for sure—and this book is the most recent reminder of why she is so beloved.”
“Lisa Harper is a phenomenal communicator. She has the ability to leave you with more biblical insight and revelation than you came in with—while laughing all along the way. Don’t miss out on this amazing study to not only believe that Jesus CAN, but to truly know that He WILL transform your heart and your life.”
