Book Synopsis Disciple Building: A Biblical Framework by : Bob Dukes
Download or read book Disciple Building: A Biblical Framework written by Bob Dukes and published by Worldwide Discipleship Association. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disciple Building: A Biblical Framework provides a biblical strategy for helping Christians grow to maturity. Maturity is defined as becoming increasingly conformed to the likeness of Jesus Christ. Maturity is a process, and it is progressive. As people obey the truths of Scripture, they increase their understanding of God and His Kingdom. As this occurs, God gradually changes the believers’ conduct, belief systems, worldview, and ultimately, their character. Maturity also produces an increased capacity for deepening our relationship with God and others, with agape (sacrificial) love as the ultimate outcome. The process of disciple building (teaching believers to obey all that Christ commanded) is central to His commission to the church and therefore a priority for Christian leaders. Worldwide Discipleship Association (WDA) has been part of a worldwide movement of building disciples for over 40 years. This book will give you an overview of the WDA philosophy of ministry and practical tools to begin to build disciples. This Updated Edition features Guided Discussions for use in training a leadership group.

Download or read book DiscipleShift written by Jim Putman and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Question: What is the God-given purpose of the local church? Answer: Relational discipleship. DiscipleShift walks you through five key "shifts" that churches must make to refocus on the fundamental biblical mission of discipleship. These intentional changes will attract the world and empower your church members to be salt and light in their communities. Over the last thirty years, many influential church leaders and church planters in America have adopted various models for reaching unchurched people. While many of these approaches have merit, something is still missing, something even more fundamental to the mission of the church: discipleship. Making disciples—helping people to trust and follow Jesus—is the church's God-given mandate. Devoted disciples attract people outside the church because of the change others see in their Christ-like lives. And discipleship empowers Christians to be more like Christ as they intentionally develop relationships with non-believers. Through biblical and professional insights, Jim Putman and Bobby Harrington discuss the transformational effectiveness of making disciples and just how to do so, in practical terms. You’ll learn: The specific roles of a disciple-making pastor. The components of person-to-person discipleship. How each ministry in your church leads to discipleship. How to implement discipleship in your church. Disciple-making leaders will not produce perfect churches, but they will create effective churches.
Book Synopsis Maturity Matters: The Priority and Process for Disciple Building in the Church by : Bob Dukes

This book was released on 2014-02-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, Worldwide Discipleship Association (WDA) focused on discipling college students. Our staff poured our lives into others to help them apply biblical truth. We’re grateful most of our alumni are walking with Christ and providing spiritual leadership in their homes and churches. But after graduation, they share a common lament: “Our local church doesn’t seem to know how to help people grow to maturity. Can you help?” •We began with a maturity philosophy. We knew Jesus had a plan for building mature leaders. His Great Commission assumed this “pattern of sound teaching” (2 Tim. 1:13), and the early church employed it to help people grow in Christ-likeness. Of course His plan would apply to the contemporary church, too. •Using Jesus’ approach as a template, we designed a process for producing maturity in the church that included a progressive, intentional architecture for growth.•Building on this process, we developed practical programs to support maturity. These can be implemented in local churches through lay leaders. •Next, we produced a progressive curriculum that provides the content and training needed to support the programs. •Finally, we built partnership prototypes in a few local churches that have implemented our process. This book represents an explanation and overview of what we’ve learned so far. We’ve reached a critical intersection. Christians need to be trained to think, feel, and act like Jesus (Luke 6:40). God commands this for the glory of His name. In addition, our culture has a desperate need for mature people. This project is much larger than our small organization. It will require collaboration and cooperation among all believers, especially Christian leaders. The declining Western Church needs restoration. The Church in other nations needs to be better equipped. If we hope to achieve these goals and follow Christ’s commands, we must work together.We know maturity is important. But we don’t always understand the best way to harness the processes that produce it. If you’re a church leader who feels this way, you’re not alone. In this book, we’ll present practical, biblical approaches for producing maturity. As you read and study this material, we hope you’ll grow—and join a movement that urges others to do the same. Everybody needs to grow and mature, but this book is aimed at Christians who realize something has gone terribly wrong in the Western societies that once embraced biblical Christianity. They sense, even suspect, that underlying issues exist within the church that connect to the cultural decay and the shift of worldviews. And they’re right. God has placed the church—along with the family— at the center of the maturation process. By strengthening the church, we bolster the family and, in turn, our society.

Book Synopsis Basic Discipleship 101 by : Ron Hordyk
Download or read book Basic Discipleship 101 written by Ron Hordyk and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For we are God's fellow-workers; you are God's field, God's building. By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as an expert builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should be careful how he builds. 1 Corinthians 3:9-10 When someone starts to build a house, he first lays the foundation on which the rest of the house will be built. If the foundation is not built correctly, the rest of the building will be compromised, affecting not only its immediate use but also its longevity. The previous scripture states that the church must also lay a good foundation in new believers. The Bible contains specific teachings that form the foundation of the Christian faith. To overlook even one of these teachings will affect how we perceive the rest of the Christian faith. An obvious example is to teach judgment without mercy, a teaching which causes the church to be legalistic. However, to teach mercy without judgment causes the church to give license to sin. Both teachings are essential, for the one teaching balances the other. When a person accepts Jesus as his Savior and Lord, most churches place the person in their ongoing programs, with the hope that he will grow. However, a new believer does not share the foundational truths that mature Christians have. The minister may make statements which out of context will appear harsh, but are not harsh when placed in the context of other accepted teachings. For this reason, the church must give new believers a foundation which will allow for a balance, in regard to the teachings to which they will be exposed. Basic Discipleship 101 is written to give new born believers the foundation on which they can build their Christian faith. In this collection of studies, we will examine what it means to become a Christian, identify the principle players in salvation, and examine the elementary truths on which the sermons they will be exposed to will be built upon. Welcome to Basic Discipleship 101.
Download or read book 4 Chair Discipling written by Dann Spader and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dann Spader is a disciple-maker who has spent his adult life exploring what it means to take someone from being a seeker to making disciples themselves. Over 750,000 people in 80 countries have been trained to make disciples through organizations he has led. Through studying the life of Christ and His disciple-making methods, Dann developed 4 Chair Discipling, a simple picture for others to follow. Jesus’ last words on earth had a few very specific instructions: Go, make disciples, baptize, and teach. But what does that mean for us today? Well, it’s not easy. But it is simple. Teacher and leader Dann Spader explains disciple-making as a process of moving people through four chairs, from someone seeking to know more about Christ to someone who makes disciples themselves. Chair 1: Come and See (John 1:39) Chair 2: Follow Me (John 1:43) Chair 3: Become a Fisher of Men (Matthew 4:19) Chair 4: Go and Bear Fruit (John 15:16) In the process of His four-year ministry, Jesus realized that different people are at different stages of growth and development, and He works to challenge each of them to the next level. In 4 Chair Discipling, you’ll get a clear and simple picture of how to follow in Jesus’ footsteps and do the same thing.

Book Synopsis Building a Youth Ministry that Builds Disciples by : Duffy Robbins
Download or read book Building a Youth Ministry that Builds Disciples written by Duffy Robbins and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2012-01-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While most youth pastors are being regularly evaluated (or even scrutinized) for what they’re doing right now in the youth group, the reality is that the most important thing they are doing won’t actually be evident until much later. That’s because the biggest challenge for any youth ministry is helping teens embrace a whole-hearted devotion to God that lasts far beyond their years in the youth room. Unfortunately, much of youth ministry seems to be designed on the model of setting teenagers up for a “date” with God—a delightful evening that involves music, laughter, food, and light conversation. But what scripture calls us to is not a “one-night stand” with God, but a lifelong love of God that endures.Youth ministry educator and veteran, Duffy Robbins, offers youth workers a blueprint for building that kind of faith in teenagers. In this concise book, ideal for busy youth workers, they’ll be equipped to build a youth ministry that instills that lasting faith in its students.

Download or read book The Bodybuilder written by Anthony L. Pelella and published by CrossBooks Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GROWING A GREAT BODY AND GROWING IN CHRIST ARE TWO THINGS MANY PEOPLE STRIVE FOR. THIS INSPIRATIONAL GUIDE DETAILS WHICH MEASURES THE LORD USES TO HELP US DEVELOP IN EACH AREA. Have you ever had a passion that took you to places you never thought you could go? In the journey of life, we face adversities and challenges that can make or break us. The amazing lesson learned is how the things that help us grow physically mirror the things that help us grow spiritually. In "The Bodybuilder: Where Physical Discipline and Godly Discipleship Collide," Rev. Anthony L. Pelella shares personal stories of years of intense training in bodybuilding and boxing. Pelella makes analogies to the way God moves in our lives so we can achieve the ultimate goal: living a life that is pleasing to Him. He bases the comparison on 1 Timothy 4:8, showing that while physical training has value for the here and now, godliness has value for now and eternity. He also compares the challenges we face in building our physical body with those God uses to build His body, the Church. Just as proper nutrition is vital to the success of a bodybuilder, a steady diet of God's Word is essential to being a person who truly follows the Lord. "The Bodybuilder" demonstrates the coming together of the physical and spiritual worlds. It is one man's journey that can inspire many.
