Book Description
Radical Obedience is about looking through the kingdom principles of our faith and developing a style of faith in Christ that is suitable for each of us, Radical Obedience is a series of books that will reveal the underscored word of God, to reveal things and thoughts that at least in my life had been over looked, or, overshadowed by a harsh lifestyle. After growing up in Richmond Virginia, the Lord said to me, move from this place and go back home, well my first thought, was; It is going to take more than God to get me back to North Carolina, then, the Lord took his hand off of me and crazy things began to happen, that was when I learned about Radical Obedience. This is too much to put into one book, so, I am putting it into 16 books, each one will deal with the possibility of all of us being able to develop Radical Obedience. Will it happen for everybody? I don't believe that it will, why? Because most readers read, just to be reading, they don't read to apply what was read, so in each of these books, it is a constant rotation of what was said, then repeated.

The Insanity of Obedience
Author: Nik Ripken
Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 143368229X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Wise Sheep Among the Wolves All Christian disciples have one thing in common: as they carry the gospel across the ocean and across the street, persecution will become the norm for those who choose to follow Jesus. How believers respond in the face of persecution reveals everything about their level of faith and obedience. The Insanity of Obedience is a bold challenge to global discipleship. Nik Ripken exposes the danger of safe Christianity and calls readers to something greater. The Insanity of Obedience challenges Christians in the same, provocative way that Jesus did. This book dares you—and prepares you—to cross the street and the oceans with the Good News of Jesus Christ. Some of Jesus’ instructions sound uncomfortable and are potentially dangerous. We may be initially encouraged by His declaration, “I am sending you out.” But how are we to respond when He then tells us that He is sending us out “like sheep among wolves"? In light of the words of Jesus, how can modern day believers rest comfortably in the status quo? How can we embrace casual faith in light of the radical commands of Jesus which are anything but casual? Ripken brings decades of ministry experience in some of the most persecuted areas of the world to bear on our understanding of faith in Jesus. The Insanity of Obedience is a call to roll up your sleeves . . . and to follow and partner with Jesus in the toughest places on this planet. "We have the high privilege of answering Jesus’ call to go," Ripken says. "But let us be clear about this: we go on His terms, not ours. If we go at all, we go as sheep among wolves." Jesus gives us Himself. And He gives us the tools necessary for those who dare to journey with Him.

Obedience Over Hustle
Author: Malinda Fuller
Publisher: Barbour Publishing
ISBN: 1643523759
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
The world promises recognition and promotion if we "hustle harder," but at what cost? Join the counter-cultural movement of choosing surrender over striving. Throughout scripture, we encounter individuals who had to face the hard reality that their dreams and time lines weren't God's best plan. By exploring these biblical narratives alongside her own personal stories of radical obedience, author Malinda Fuller encourages readers to respond to the questions God asks each of us: "Will you trust Me? . . . Will you do what I'm asking you to do?” Fuller's challenge to all of us is to yield to God's voice—no matter where He leads or what He asks, whether it's complicated or straightforward, accepted by others or challenging to understand, and regardless of how it makes us feel (even if it appears foolish). May we have the courage to surrender to His plan and His timing—to choose obedience over hustle.

Free in Obedience
Author: William Stringfellow
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 172521783X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
An astute, outspoken lay theologian talks to Christians about how they can today find freedom in obedience to Christ's gospel and about the urgent necessity of trying to live this kind of freedom now. He insists that his readers look realistically and relentlessly at their own condition, at the condition of the church -- and that they see how these relate and compare to Christ's gospel. His book, based on certain passages from Hebrews, thus becomes a call to freedom and a call to revolutionary Christianity. William Stringfellow begins by spelling out, in impressive and telling detail, how the church has become mired in secular idolatries and ideologies, both economic and political. Then, in constrast to this situation, he examines Christ's resistance to the temptations of worldly power. Stringfellow ends his book by emphasizing the meaning of the resurrection as the exercise of the freedom of God and sets forth the victory over death and bondage given in Christ. Only in that gift is the Christian free to offer his own life to the world. Only thus is he free in obedience.

Radical
Author: David Platt
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 1601422210
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
