For some of us, performance dominates our Christian lives. We tell ourselves we’re right with God, but deep inside we know something is wrong.

That was the author’s story for decades. And it may be your story right now.

Are we Pharisees? Oh no, not that!

In his book, Silence Your Inner Pharisee, Jon Edward Fugler challenges the longtime believer to think differently about his or her relationship with Christ.

You’ve been giving Jesus your best for years. You’ve faithfully obeyed and served him. You’ve led others to Christ or mentored them to maturity. You serve in the kids’ ministry at church. You’re in a Bible study. You lead a small group. You appear to be a stellar Christian example. You’re doing all the right things.

Yet, you’re dying inside. You know it but others don’t. Maybe you feel distant from God. He’s a cold being, rather than a warm friend.

Here’s your opportunity to move from frustration to freedom in your walk with Christ.

Jon encourages you to ditch performance and embrace radical freedom in Christ. He did it. After decades of Christian leadership and service, God changed his life.

In Silence Your Inner Pharisee, you will:

• Discover a biblical truth that will turn your relationship with Jesus into the joyful experience you once knew.
• Exchange spiritual dryness for a renewed life with God, characterized by peace and purpose.
• Listen to the stories of longtime believers who are on the path to freedom in their walk with Jesus.
• Change your future as you examine and rewrite your own story of freedom.
• Leave the prison of performing for God - forever.
• Learn how to rise above circumstances.
• Turn trials and pain into richness in your relationship with Jesus.
• Understand how to live freely in Christ every day.

This book isn’t about turning a new leaf. It’s about complete, lasting life-change, based on one of the simplest, yet most profound principles in Scripture. The Apostle Paul knew it, experienced it and shared how we can experience it, too.

You’re in for an adventure as Jon unpacks this life-giving truth in this audio.

You can break free from the grip of performance Christianity.

You can silence your inner Pharisee.

Added Features:

“Your Story” sections. Take a few minutes at the end of each chapter to consider the questions that will help change your story.

Exercises in Knowing Jesus. At the end of the book, Jon includes 10 exercises, or experiences, to engage with Jesus, highlighting a different quality or identity of Jesus in each one. Spend a day with each experience. Or spend a week. There are no rules. Listen to the commentary, and answer the questions. Journal if you’d like. The most important thing is that you spend time getting to know Jesus. Before every experience, ask the Holy Spirit to open your heart and reveal something new to you about Jesus.

Retreating With Jesus. Jon says, “One of the richest spiritual experiences I enjoy is taking a day away with God. I’ve heard others say the same thing. My daily quiet times are a lifeline, but this monthly retreat is life-changing."
