The Disciple-Making Pastor
Author: Bill Hull
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1441201033
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Christ commanded the church to make disciples, to produce people who love and obey God, bear fruit, and live with joy. The crisis at the heart of the church is that we often pay lip service to making disciples, but we seldom put much effort behind doing it. For the pastor who is ready to put words into action, The Disciple-Making Pastor offers the inspiration and practical know-how to do so. Bill Hull shows pastors the obstacles they will face, what disciples really look like, the pastor's role in producing them, and the practices that lead to positive change. He also offers a six-step coaching process to help new disciples grow in commitment and obedience and practical ideas to integrate disciple making into the fabric of the church.

Gospel Discipleship Congregation Guide
Author: Michelle J. Morris
Publisher: Abingdon Press
ISBN: 1501899082
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Each congregation has a unique mission field. Several tools for developing disciples and for engaging in discipleship are available to churches; however, the resources assume that the churches using them are similar to the church that created them. With Gospel Discipleship, individuals and churches learn how to engage in self-reflection, which then defines a path that fits their context. The discipleship path for each individual disciple is assessed and determined through the Gospel Discipleship Participant Guide while this Gospel Discipleship Congregation Guide guides the implemntation of the program and assesses the discipleship path for the congregation as a whole. Therefore, the program leader(s) needs the congregation guide while individual particpants need their own participant guide. With Gospel Discipleship, churches can identify a pathway for discipleship applied from one of the four Gospel storytellers: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Each had a distinct approach to discipleship which can be applied to a given church's identity, vision, and mission. As disciples are encouraged by the church to step beyond the door and engage the needs of people, they can be sent forth confidently with an awareness of personal, unique gifts, and insights into the actual mission field where they participate with God in changing the world.

The Discovery of Chance
Author: Aileen M. Kelly
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674969413
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 605
Book Description
Alexander Herzen—philosopher, novelist, essayist, political agitator, and one of the leading Russian intellectuals of the nineteenth century—was as famous in his day as Tolstoy and Dostoevsky. While he is remembered for his masterpiece My Past and Thoughts and as the father of Russian socialism, his contributions to the history of ideas defy easy categorization because they are so numerous. Aileen Kelly presents the first fully rounded study of the farsighted genius whom Isaiah Berlin called “the forerunner of much twentieth-century thought.” In an era dominated by ideologies of human progress, Herzen resisted them because they conflicted with his sense of reality, a sense honed by his unusually comprehensive understanding of history, philosophy, and the natural sciences. Following his unconventional decision to study science at university, he came to recognize the implications of early evolutionary theory, not just for the natural world but for human history. In this respect, he was a Darwinian even before Darwin. Socialism for Russia, as Herzen conceived it, was not an ideology—least of all Marxian “scientific socialism”—but a concrete means of grappling with unique historical circumstances, a way for Russians to combine the best of Western achievements with the possibilities of their own cultural milieu in order to move forward. In the same year that Marx declared communism to be the “solution to the riddle of history,” Herzen denied that any such solution could exist. History, like nature, was contingent—an improvisation both constrained and encouraged by chance.

The Disciple's Guidebook
Author: A. Victoria Chance
Publisher: A. Victoria Chance
ISBN: 0986001031
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
After a decade of studying numerous cryptic passages in the holy book, author A. Victoria Chance has discovered a key to unlocking the mysteries of the Bible. Incredibly, this key, which is a hidden language, has been in plain sight for the past 2,000 years. Without knowing exactly what we were reading, Christ's secret language had been recorded in the gospels by his disciples and translated by Jesus within the actual text. It was even documented similarly in various versions of the Bible throughout history. THE DISCIPLE'S GUIDEBOOK takes readers who are suffering from a dearth of practical religion on a spiritual journey through the fundamental teachings of Christianity, starting with the parables of Christ. Victoria calls his parables the alphabet of the Kingdom of God, without which one cannot fully understand the mysteries of the Bible. She reveals very early how Jesus intended for the parables to be used-- as a guide to understanding his deep spiritual teachings. Small parables are shown to have been translated word-for-word by Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. This "key" is then used to understand the larger more substantial parables and eventually the overall meaning of his message. Once Christ's language is decoded, THE DISCIPLE'S GUIDEBOOK explains five main Christian precepts: truth, righteousness, readiness, faith and salvation. Now, the elusive key has been exposed and the mysteries of the Bible are revealed to everyone. "Believers and nonbelievers alike will appreciate this light, modern-day approach to understanding the Bible." --Kirkus Reviews
