Book Synopsis Forming Intentional Disciples by : Sherry A. Weddell
Download or read book Forming Intentional Disciples written by Sherry A. Weddell and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we transmit a living, personal Catholic faith to future generations? By coming to know Jesus Christ, and following him as his disciples. These are times of immense challenge and immense opportunity for the Catholic Church. Consider these statistics for the United States. Only 30 percent of Americans who were raised Catholic are still practicing. Fully 10 percent of all adults in America are ex-Catholics. The number of marriages celebrated in the Church decreased dramatically, by nearly 60 percent, between 1972 and 2010. Only 60 percent of Catholics believe in a personal God. If the Church is to reverse these trends, the evangelizers must first be evangelized-in other words, Catholics-in-the-pew must make a conscious choice to know and follow Jesus before they can draw others to him. This work of discipleship lies at the heart of Forming Intentional Disciples, a book designed to help Church leaders, parish staff and all Catholics transform parish life from within. Drawing upon her fifteen years of experience with the Catherine of Siena Institute, Sherry Weddell leads readers through steps that will help Catholics enter more deeply into a relationship with God and the river of apostolic creativity, charisms, and vocation that flow from that relationship for the sake of the Church and the world. Learn about the five thresholds of postmodern conversion, how to open a conversation about faith and belief, how to ask thought-provoking questions and establish an atmosphere of trust, when to tell the Great Story of Jesus, how to help someone respond to God's call to intentional discipleship, and much more. And be prepared for conversion because when life at the parish level changes, the life of the whole Church will change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Book Award Finalist What type of leadership is needed in a moment that demands adaptive change? Tod Bolsinger, author of Canoeing the Mountains, is uniquely positioned to explore the qualities of adaptive leadership in contexts ranging from churches to nonprofit organizations. He deftly examines both the external challenges we face and the internal resistance that holds us back. Bolsinger writes: "To temper describes the process of heating, holding, hammering, cooling, and reheating that adds stress to raw iron until it becomes a glistening knife blade or chisel tip." When reflection and relationships are combined into a life of deliberate practice, leaders become both stronger and more flexible. As a result, these resilient leaders are able to offer greater wisdom and skill to the organizations they serve. Also available: Tempered Resilience Study Guide

Book Synopsis Flourishing in Tensions by : Michael Bräutigam
Download or read book Flourishing in Tensions written by Michael Bräutigam and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-09-09 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following Jesus Christ presents unique challenges to disciples today. In our current climate of relativism, materialism, and consumerism, Christians are increasingly perplexed as to who they are and what following after Christ means today. Drawing on the Protestant tradition (in particular, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Martin Luther, and Adolf Schlatter) and findings from psychology, this book offers a fresh integrative interpretation of Jesus's radical call into discipleship. This call is interpreted through a christological lens, as Jesus Christ in his role as Prophet calls us to self-denial, in his role as Priest invites us to cross-bearing, and as King demands us to follow him. Jesus's call to discipleship challenges disciples to embrace various tensions by faith and to grow and even flourish in and through them. By denying themselves, they find their true self; by taking up their cross, they find real life; and by following Christ, they find the great friend and befriend the world as the community of disciples. This book is for Christians who seek to mature in intentional self-reflection and discover practical ways of living out Christ's radical call into discipleship today.
Download or read book True Spirituality written by Chip Ingram and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A launching pad for your spiritual journey, this inspiring book provides clear, specific, and practical guidelines for becoming a Christian who lives like Christ. Christians today live in a world that is activity heavy and relationship light. The result is spiritual emptiness. We struggle to know what God wants from us and for us . . . and we’re unsure what a real relationship with God really looks like. But that was never God’s idea. HIS idea of faith is not about rules or religion— it’s about relationship. That’s where God tells us to start. In Romans 12, God gives us a clear picture of what Christians should look like at the root level. If you’re ready to move from “in” to “all in,” then you’re ready to become a Romans 12 Christian. The next steps of your journey toward true spirituality start here.

Book Synopsis Follow Me Group Guide by : Ed D David E Schroeder
Download or read book Follow Me Group Guide written by Ed D David E Schroeder and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Follow Me Group Guide is a practical tool for learning how to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and how to help others become disciples. Following the methodology and themes Jesus used to train his Twelve, the Group Guide is a companion to Dr. David Schroeder's popular book, Follow Me: the Disciple-making Strategy of Jesus (aka Discipleship by the Book). Dr. Ravi Zacharias, popular speaker and author of many outstanding Christian books, has this to say about Follow Me: "David Schroeder wisely observes that the foremost task of the church is to make disciples and that genuine discipleship takes place in the context of intimate relationships. Conjoining scholarly research with rich practical and devotional insights, he examines values that Jesus taught-such as humility, compassion, and accountability-and shows how they can transform individuals as well as communities. I have known David for nearly four decades and commend his important work to you." Follow Me and the Group Guide present a biblical picture of a primitive and powerful brand of Christianity that was effective in its first few generations and would be effective in this generation if followed more faithfully. In this book, we enter into the heart of the Lord Jesus Christ to see the strategies which he communicated to his first followers. Undoubtedly the ways in which we might apply those strategies will differ from Christians in the first century because we must adapt them to different cultural settings. Nevertheless, human nature has not changed in twenty centuries, and these teachings of Jesus must still be the backbone of effective Christian witness. Taking a cue from Jesus, the Group Guide encourages disciple-making in small groups. The questions for discussion open group members to discover of What It (the biblical text) Says, What It Means, and What It Means for Me. Following the purposeful, progressive strategy of Jesus by focusing on character formation in three stages -- Learning Kingdom Values, Ministry, and Leadership -- the material helps the groups explore what it means to follow Jesus as a disciple in their personal lives, in the world, and in the church. Churches that adopt the strategy of disciple-making used by Jesus are certainly going to be change agents in their communities and throughout the world. That was Jesus' plan. That is your possibility.
