2007-06-21

LONGWOOD, FL-Forget about being left behind on earth; how about being left behind in heaven! Nothing has more drama than the judgments described in Scripture. And nothing is more captivating than a life spent in service to God. A worship leader for more than 20 years, author Michael Davidson knows firsthand how to connect people with God. His book, The Invitation: The Role of Intimacy in Life, Judgment, and Eternal Inheritance (paperback, 978-1-60266-284-1), outlines the missing link between today's people and their divine Creator. For the hungry soul in pursuit of spiritual intimacy, Davidson's book is the total package.

Many modern-day Christians fail to see the big picture, an oversight that could result in their failure to establish a fulfilling relationship with God. "In addition to teaching what is at stake in right-living, this book teaches how to live so that we can 'inherit all things,'" says Davidson. "It does so by looking first at the believer's judgment to discover how God will assess our lives against four criteria: sin, stewardship, character, and good works. But because the whole is bigger than the sum of its parts, we also revisit Christian themes like the cross and worship in a fresh way. Taken together, these two approaches form a composite picture of the Christian life."

Developed over a period of six months, the book marries three of the most powerful words in the English language: life, judgment, and inheritance. Without a proper understanding of all three words, readers will find themselves at a disadvantage in trying to pay the cost of discipleship. They will be unable to achieve the goal of godly passion. But with understanding comes victory.

Michael Davidson is a church elder, worship leader, and Bible teacher. He and his wife, Irene, have two married children and live in Prince George, B.C., Canada.
