Appropriating The Power Of Prayer And Faith is a Christian devotional work by Ron Christian that maintains prayer is not merely a religious habit, but a vital means of communion with God, spiritual power, obedience, intercession, and growing faith. The book presents prayer as both deeply personal and actively practical, calling believers to speak with God consistently, trust His will, wait patiently, pray for others, and expect God to work according to His wisdom. Ron Christian emphasizes that prayer should shape the home, the church, daily decisions, service to others, and the believer’s understanding of God’s presence and care. The work also contends that faith grows through humility, obedience, persistence, thanksgiving, praise, and dependence on the Holy Spirit rather than self-reliance. Through devotional reflections, biblical passages, prayers, affirmations, and discussion questions, the book invites Christians to move beyond merely talking about prayer and to live as people who trust God, listen for His guidance, intercede with compassion, and receive His power for faithful Christian living.

Handling Life’s Temptations is a Christian devotional work by Ron Christian focused on recognizing, resisting, and overcoming temptation through faith, Scripture, prayer, humility, and dependence on Christ.

Ron Christian presents temptation as a recurring battle involving outward actions, inward attitudes, and the hidden motives of the heart.

Its central message is that Christians can grow stronger through life’s tests when they meet temptation with humility, spiritual vigilance, forgiveness, confidence in God, and a Christ-centered mind.

Practicing the Means of Grace is Book 2 in the Growing a Godly Life devotional series by Ron Christian. The booklet maintains that becoming a Christian may happen through sincere faith and prayer, but growing into a mature believer requires continued participation in the “means of grace” God provides. Ron Christian presents the local church, corporate fellowship, biblical teaching, Scripture, prayer, communion, baptism, worship, hymns, and personal spiritual disciplines as vital channels through which believers are strengthened and shaped. The work contends that Christians are not meant to live isolated spiritual lives, but to grow in the family of God through regular worship, fellowship, reverence, shared devotion, and service. It also emphasizes the Bible as God’s blueprint for life and calls believers to hunger for Scripture, obey it carefully, and allow it to saturate the heart and mind. Through devotional reflections, prayers, affirmations, and discussion questions, the booklet proposes a practical path for deepening communion with God and maturing in the Christian faith.

Practicing The Presence Of God is a Christian devotional work in the Growing A Godly Life series that focuses on living in continual awareness of God’s nearness, majesty, love, and personal care. Ron Christian maintains that Scripture presents God as both high and holy, yet also deeply personal and intimately involved in the lives of His people. The book contends that believers are called not merely to perform Christian duties, but to commune with the Lord moment by moment, allowing worship, prayer, praise, service, and daily decisions to flow from a living relationship with Him. Ron Christian emphasizes that the sacred and the ordinary are not separate for the Christian; God’s presence may be recognized in nature, work, relationships, household tasks, suffering, guidance, worship, and unexpected acts of care. The devotional readings invite readers to sit at Jesus’ feet, hear God’s voice, trust His shepherding protection, receive courage and peace, and let service become the overflow of love for God. Its central message is that a godly life is sustained by practicing the presence of God in every circumstance and learning to see all of life as an opportunity for divine communion.

Battle Against Humanism! is a Christian devotional and apologetic work by Ron Christian that contrasts a Christ-centered worldview with what the author describes as humanism: a self-centered, prideful, materialistic, and God-denying philosophy. The book asserts that science and human reason are valuable gifts from God, but become spiritually dangerous when elevated into objects of worship or treated as the only path to truth. Christian emphasizes that both Scripture and nature reveal God, and he presents the ordered universe as evidence of divine design. Throughout the book, he calls believers to humility, prayer, obedience, compassion, and dependence on the Holy Spirit rather than self-sufficiency. The work also addresses related themes such as relativism, materialism, abortion, public moral standards, the teaching of the Bible, spiritual gifts, Christian service, heaven, suffering, praise, tears, laughter, and God’s love. Its central message is that the Christian life is not built on human pride or independence, but on repentance, faith in Christ, humble service, and loving witness to others.
