Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR CULTIVATING SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION-IN THE WAYS OF JESUSFor those who long for real transformation and hunger to experience God's goodness in a way that changes their daily experience of life, author Brandon Cook offers a guide for authentic transformation in Christ. With 52 readings, you can read this over the course of a year or at your own pace, individually or in a small group. Learning to Live and Love Like Jesus will help you understand what transformation is and how it actually happens. At the heart of this book, you will see how Christian discipleship is about living for others in new ways and being empowered to love as Jesus loves. Cook applies his experience working for several transformational Christian ministries and from pastoring a local church for over a decade, where he learned how to help people relate to God, self, and others in whole and healthy ways. Having wrestled for over 20 years with the challenges of sustainable character formation, he has written this "long-soaking" resource-one that takes time to sink in, yet produces genuine life change. Search no longer for a practical roadmap of transformation. If transformation has felt inaccessible or too "mystical" for you, and if you're looking for a resource to ground your life in Christian discipleship, read this book from The Bonhoeffer Project's co-founder. It will help you engage God through practices and habits that have the potential to change your life. You'll walk away with a fresh sense of God's presence, hope that leads to new possibilities, and a vibrant sense of purpose and mission in the world.

Download or read book Discipleship on the Edge written by Darrell W. Johnson and published by Regent College Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation is probably the most read, but least understood book of the Bible. History is replete with examples of how not to interpret it, and books featuring end-of-world prophecy claims based on Revelation consistently top the bestseller lists. But how can the message of such an enigmatic book be applied to our lives today? In Discipleship on the Edge, Darrell W. Johnson drives home the challenging and practical message of Revelation in thirty carefully crafted sermons. Paying careful attention to the original context of Revelation and the circumstances surrounding its composition, Johnson shows that the book is not a "crystal ball" but rather a "discipleship manual." Thoroughly researched and yet accessible, this collection of sermons is a helpful resource for pastors and small group leaders who are looking for models to help them preach and teach the message of Revelation in a time when there is much confusion about the end times. Darrell W. Johnson serves as Scholar-in-Residence at The Way Church and Canadian Church Leaders Network in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. A popular conference and retreat speaker, he has also served as the preaching pastor for a number of congregations in North America and the Philippines, as well as serving as Adjunct Professor of Preaching for the Doctor of Ministry program at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California, and a Teaching Fellow at Regent College. His other books include Experiencing the Trinity and Fifty-Seven Words That Change The World.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a pastor I see many people who stifle and stuff their feelings, particularly “negative” ones. Even more problematic is that they believe this is what God wants them to do. From an early age they received the message explicitly, or implicitly, that said God wants you to be happy all the time. The truth is this: God loves and accepts us in the whole breadth of our feelings, from joy to excitement, anger and sadness, and everything in-between. This message matters because it builds two essential qualities for authentic relationship: self-awareness and openness. Because God loves me and all my feelings there is nothing to hide or fear. Through accessible language and bright, beautiful pictures children and their parents are able to internalize this message of God’s love and acceptance.

Download or read book Conversion and Discipleship written by Bill Hull and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discipleship occurs when someone answers the call to learn from Jesus how to live his or her life as though Jesus were living it. The end result is that the disciple becomes the kind of person who naturally does what Jesus did. How the church understands salvation and the gospel is the key to recovering a biblical theology of discipleship. Our doctrines of grace and salvation, in some cases, actually prevent us from creating an expectation that we are to be disciples of Jesus. A person can profess to be a Christian and yet still live under the impression that they don’t need to actually follow Jesus. Being a follower is seen as an optional add-on, not a requirement. It is a choice, not a demand. Being a Christian today has no connection with the biblical idea that we are formed into the image of Christ. In this ground-breaking new book, pastor and author Bill Hull shows why our existing models of evangelism and discipleship fail to actually produce followers of Jesus. He looks at the importance of recovering a robust view of the gospel and taking seriously the connection between conversion—answering the call to follow Jesus—and discipleship—living like the one we claim to follow.

Book excerpt: "In 1996 Latter-day Saints were stunned by the news that Elder Neal A. Maxwell had contracted acute leukemia. Confronted by his illness, Elder Maxwell experienced the "wintry doctrine" he had eloquently taught for years--that the Lord may deliberately choose to school his disciples in tutorials of afflication designed to enlarge their souls. Discipleship, the central message of Elder Maxwell's life, is a theme that helps us not only know Elder Maxwell but also know how to better follow the Savior ourselves. Compassionate, witty, politically astute, and spiritually authentic, Neal Maxwell was always pasionately engaged in life's battles. During his dark hours of chemotherapy, he whispered, 'I want a jersey. On the team, on this side [of the veil] or that side, I don't want to sit on the sidelines.' This instinct for action impelled him nto the infantry in World War II where, on Okinawa, shaking and crying in a foxhole full of mud and foul water, he pledged his life to the Lord and was miraculously spared. He discovered the power of the scriputres while fighting in the Lord's army as a missionary in Canada. Next came the intellectual engagements of university studies and the political skirmishes of Washington, D.C. Then, tutored by President Harold B. Lee, he became the Church's commissioner of education when an entire generation of LDS college students needed his fresh, open, and faithful mentoring. Ordained an Apostle in 1981, Elder Maxwell engaged in a broader struggle, between the sacred and the secular, the tension between faith and reason, and finally his greatest cause--his spiritual ministry. His eloquent defense of Christianity and his brilliant reconciliation of faith and intellect are a rich legacy. But beyond that, he showed us that with the Savior's help, oridinary people can be better, less competitive, more loving, and receive the soul-transforming gift of charity. In this inspiring, sometimes humorous, and moving biography, Elder Bruce C. Hafen has painted an intimate portrait of a beloved apostle, capturing the warm, personal stories that reveal the heart and mind of a true disciple of Christ." --Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Radical Disciple invites the followers of Christ to take seriously the scriptural mandate to love God and neighbor. The cost of contemporary discipleship is just as high now as it was in the early days of the Christian church. But the sharp edge of the gospel mandate has been watered down. The hard passages of the Bible have been ignored by a church that has become too comfortable with the economic and political status quo. But when a disciple sidesteps the call of God to radically embrace the poor of the world, then that disciple also sidesteps the comfort and the inheritance that God holds for God's faithful people. We Christians represent a radical alternative to the greed, complacency, and violence of our age. The promise for us is the promise of community and celebration, joy and peace. But we must follow the way of the cross,which is just as relevant and compelling for us as it was for Jesus two thousand years ago. So we have set before us in these pages a prescription for the servanthood that is required of us. By assuming the yoke of a servant, we claim joy and purpose for our lives. Read this book and gain insight into the meaning of these words for Christians and the church today.

Book excerpt: What Promises Can You Believe?In The Promises of God, Dr. R. C. Sproul shows how God—the one true Promise Keeper—always keeps His promises. Drawing from his expansive theological background, Dr. Sproul addresses questions such as these:· How do we know that God will fulfill His promises to us?· What can we learn about God’s faithfulness as we wait for His promises to be fulfilled?· What was the agreement God the Father had with Jesus before the beginning of the world?· What does God’s covenant with Adam mean for us today?· What common covenant do atheists and other non-Christians participate in with God?· What does God’s covenant have to do with His forgiveness of our sins today?· Why did Jesus have to die to complete God’s covenant with us? God’s promises throughout history are the foundation for your relationship with Him. Here you will see how and why He keeps His promises to you, from now through eternity.
