Personal Development

Personal change begins when the God’s call to us in His mercy and we respond. That response should be followed by daily habits, biblical focus, and a willingness to pursue consistent discipleship. Pentecostal Publishing House offers Apostolic voices who speak to the heart of that process through trusted personal development books.

Living for God every day takes more than good intentions. You need something steady to keep your heart focused and your time centered on what matters. The 365 Day Devotional helps with that, providing a daily pattern of Scripture and reflection to keep you grounded in the Word. The Habit Blueprint walks you through building spiritual habits that line up with the life God’s called you to live. It’s clear, practical, and written with Apostolic believers in mind. Both are written to support a consistent walk with God and a life submitted to His calling.

You’ll also find books tailored to specific seasons and life stages. Hyphen Habits is written for young adults navigating the transition into adulthood, helping them build godly habits to set their foundation in the right direction. For those ready to look inward and realign with the nature of Christ, the More Like Him Workbook is a valuable resource.

Personal development is not about doing more. It is about becoming more like Him.

These self-development books are for readers who are ready to be challenged. They provide clear direction without compromise, speaking directly to the heart through Scripture and practical application. Many titles include journaling sections, reflection questions, or goal-setting prompts, always directing the reader back to the authority of the Bible.

Apostolic readers will appreciate that these are not secular leadership models or self-help theories dressed in Christian language. These personal growth books are written by ministers, teachers, and leaders who embody the principles they teach. Their purpose is not only to encourage but to transform.

As Peter wrote in II Peter 1:5-6, “Giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness.” Spiritual progress doesn’t happen on its own. It takes purpose. When your decisions are led by the Spirit and shaped by the Word, change becomes possible. These books are here to support that kind of direction. They’ll challenge you to stay consistent, think biblically, and keep your focus on what really matters. Becoming more like Jesus takes daily effort, and every step in that direction counts.
