This book was released on 2023-03-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Matthew 28. Before his ascension into heaven Jesus gave his disciples their final instructions, "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age". Jesus wanted his disciples to take everything they had experienced with Him, and formulate it into one mission: " Go make disciples". The ultimate goal of all Christian activity must be, making disciples who can stand strong while facing the storms of life. "Essential Foundations for Christian Maturity" is designed to assist disciple makers in the task of teaching new and young believers the essential foundations of their faith. It is designed to be read individually or used to facilitate regular "New Believer" classes. It is written in an easy to read manner, while not compromising depth and revelation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems that much of American Christianity has lost sight of the goal of growing to maturity in Christ. This loss of vision has had serious consequences for the quality of our witness and ministry. In Aiming at Maturity, Steven W. Rankin seeks to bring back into focus key qualities of spiritual maturity and summarizes important biblical passages to show the scriptural foundations that call for spiritual maturity. Rankin also addresses certain tendencies in popular Christian culture to reduce doctrinal truths to sound bites with the laudable but counterproductive goal to make doctrine memorable, therefore applicable. Thinking more expansively about certain key doctrines related to the work of Christ and the impact of grace contributes to growth toward maturity in a way that popular descriptions of these doctrines do not. Finally, Rankin also challenges readers to consider the important role of emotions in developing Christlike dispositions, which contribute toward producing the fruit of a mature Christian life. By looking at relevant modern research, Aiming at Maturity shows the inherent connection between thoughts and feelings that draw us closer to the actual biblical description of the heart.

Book excerpt: While salvation is wholly a work of the Lord, requiring only faith and not our personal efforts, such is not true of sanctification, or spiritual growth. Rather, both God and the believer play vital, sometimes overlapping roles, in our progress toward maturity. Maturity is the result of human response to the enablement of God. It is initiated by God and requires a radical dependence upon the grace and power of the Spirit as we work out our salvation. This manual is designed to aid the children of God in the process of working out their salvation through the power and energy that God supplies. By the Lord's grace, may it accomplish this purpose in your life.

Book excerpt: To be human is to have doubts and questions. It is not how you answer these questions and doubts, it is how you handle them. This is specially important for Christians. Some will let the doubts destroy their faith. Some will push those doubts to the back of their minds and not think about them. But some Christians will work to resolve those doubts that can be resolved and rely on faith for those doubts which can not be resolved. Dare To Doubt helps the Christian build a solid foundation on which Christian's can handle doubts which occur as they grow and mature in their faith. The foundation is like a stool that depends on three legs for it's stability and strength. The three legs are finding a community of like minded believers, studying God's Word and developing a set of basic beliefs so strong the you would give up your life rather than deny them. It is that simple and that complex!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one can deny our culture is opposed to Christian values, and the influences bombarding our children's moral development are difficult to contend with. But few parents and church leaders realize that a child's moral development is set by the age of nine. It is therefore critical to start developing a child's biblical worldview from the very earliest years of life. The problem is complex: parents who themselves did not receive early spiritual training leave their children's training to the church. Yet the church often focuses on older children. The answer is for churches to come alongside parents to provide them biblical worldview training, parenting information, and counseling that will equip them to help their children become the spiritually mature church of tomorrow. This helpful and hopeful book unpacks just how to develop this kind of dynamic church/parent relationship and includes profiles of churches that are effectively ministering to children and winning the war for their hearts and minds.
