The True Secret of the Christian Life

What if everything you’ve been told about the “victorious Christian life” is based if everything you’ve been told about the “victorious Christian life” is based on a misunderstanding of history and human effort? If we want to understand Christian living, Gene Edwards argues that we must stop looking at formulas, imitation, or performance—which he finds disastrous—and instead, look beyond time and space to the origins of the faith. Gene Edwards challenges the notion that the secret to the Christian life lies in external duties like Bible reading, prayer, or witnessing, asserting that these are not foundational, especially considering the illiteracy of the early church. He reveals that the only true Christian is the Father, who staked out a franchise on this life. The secret is not what we do, but how the Eternal Son lived every moment on earth: by means of the Father’s life, in an unbroken, eternal fellowship of beholding, loving, listening, and obeying. Join Gene Edwards as he unpacks this liberating truth, demonstrating that the Christian life is simply an internal, eternal habit of fellowship that the Lord now lives in and through us.
