Gospel-Centered Discipleship
Author: Jonathan K. Dodson
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433530244
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Reflecting on the practice of disciple making in young adult, college, graduate, and local church contexts, Jonathan Dodson has discerned some common pitfalls. For many, discipleship is reduced to a form of religious performance before God. For others, it devolves into spiritual license and a loose adherence to spiritual facts. Both approaches distort biblical motivations for Christian obedience and are in need of reform. By explaining various motivations for discipleship, Dodson charts a biblically faithful, grace-driven alternative. Additionally, he provides a practical model for creating gospel-centered discipleship groups—small, reproducible, missional, gender-specific groups of believers that fight for faith together. This book blends both theology and practice to inspire and equip Christians to effectively fight sin, keep Jesus central, and make gospel-centered discipleship a way of life. Both new and growing Christians will learn to trust the gospel in community as they fight together for holiness as well as how to start gospel-centered community groups in any local church.

My God! Our God?
Author: Dianne H. Timmering
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1462039944
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 397
Book Description
This book is about one man's spiritual journey - walking and breathing the living Bible - during his pilgrimage to the Holy Land (Israel). This amazing journey flushed out doctrinal confusion, man's secular spin on religion, while cleansing painful personal mistakes for a spiritual transformation. It started in September 2004 when God divinely healed his son, Luke. During this miracle, the author transformed through God's full interaction and with the power of constant prayer swirling around him, he committed to a covenant with the Lord. He decided to go to Israel in May 2006 for his fortieth birthday as a mid-life spiritual pilgrimage that forced him to go back to his earliest beginnings to fully understand his childhood, to stop blaming organized religion for his own mistakes, to see God as He really was, and to understand and commit to God's plan for his life. This new covenant was about personal forgiveness, a new kind of intimacy with the Lord, bringing God into the workplace and business decisions, and finally having the confidence to tell others all about Him.

Your God, My God, Our God
Author: S. Wesley Ariarajah
Publisher: World Council of Churches
ISBN: 9782825415764
Category : Ecumenical movement
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In today's religiously plural world, theologian S. Wesley Ariarajah believes that authentic Christian faith demands that we rethink central concepts of the Christian theological tradition. Ariarajah's work is based on the conviction that some of the basic doctrinal formulations about God, Sin, Christ, Salvation, and Mission can in fact be rethought for our day, helping us to affirm deeply the Christian faith while still respecting other religious experiences in their distinctiveness. In this book, Ariarajah traces the biblical roots and theological developments of these doctrines, evaluates their coherence, and recommends new constructive options for a Christian theology of religions in the context of religious plurality.
