Lifted


The resurrection has overwhelmingly positive practical implications for our daily lives. Through it we can have real assurance of forgiveness and salvation. We are raised and empowered to live new, transformed lives. We have hope after death for our bodies and this physical world. We are shown the urgency of reaching all nations with the message of the risen Jesus.

COMMENDATIONS

“Sam Allberry has written a wonderful book on the significance of the resurrection. Full of great images, clearly organized, encouraging, humourous, Biblical, insightful–I could go on. Reading this little volume on this central but neglected topic will benefit your life. If you would like more assurance, transformation, hope & purpose, this book shows you how we get all that from the resurrection of Christ.”
Mark Dever

“60 years ago, the night I came to know that Jesus, God’s beloved Son, had so loved me that He died for my sins, I was given Phil.3:10 as my new life’s verse: ‘That I may know Christ, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings ..” (AV) After reading this book, ‘Lifted’, by Sam Allberry, I feel I have at last entered into a full (or at least, a fuller) understanding of knowing ‘the power of His resurrection’. I am only sorry I had not read this book many years ago!”
Helen Roseveare

“I think this book rocks! All Christian people need to know the great joy of living in the light of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Sam Allberry has done us all a favour in writing such a engaging and readable book about such a vital subject. It is by turns amusing, moving, encouraging and profound. Writing out of his years of ministry to university students and from his own Christian experience, Allberry helps us to look to a familiar horizon with fresh eyes. Lifted is a book that could easily form the centre of a discussion group, but any individual reader will be – well, ‘lifted’! – by what they find here.”
Michael Jensen

“A much-needed introduction to what the resurrection has accomplished for us… A very helpful book.”
Adrian Warnock
