My Heart Christs Home
$5.99Add to cartOne of the most beloved pieces of Christian literature in this century now comes to you for the first time in this outstanding gift edition. With ten million copies in circulation, MY HEART-CHRIST’S HOME has for forty years vividly expressed what it means to bring every aspect of our lives under the lordship of Jesus Christ.
Robert Boyd Munger imagines for us what it would be like to have Christ come to the home of our hearts. Room by room we consider with our Lord what He desires for us. Are we prepared to meet with Him daily in our living room? In the dining room we examine together what appetites should and should not control us. And is there a closet in our lives that He could help us clean out?
This new edition includes “rooms” never before published. And the ten warm and inviting color illustrations by Andrea Jorgenson accent the message of this classic, helping us reflect on what it means in Ephesians 3:16 “that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.”
