Download or read book Master and Disciple written by Abdellah Hammoudi and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1997-10 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the postcolonial era, Arab societies have been ruled by a variety of authoritarian regimes. Focusing on his native Morocco, Abdellah Hammoudi explores the ideological and cultural foundations of this persistent authoritarianism. Building on the work of Foucault, Hammoudi argues that at the heart of Moroccan culture lies a paradigm of authority that juxtaposes absolute authority against absolute submission. Rooted in Islamic mysticism, this paradigm can be observed in the drama of mystic initiation, with its fundamental dialectic between Master and Disciple; in conflict with other cultural forms, and reelaborated in colonial and postcolonial circumstances, it informs all major aspects of Moroccan personal, political, and gender relations. Its influence is so pervasive and so firmly embedded that it ultimately legitimizes the authoritarian structure of power. Hammoudi contends that as long as the Master-Disciple dialectic remains the dominant paradigm of power relations, male authoritarianism will prevail as the dominant political form. "Connecting political domination to gift exchange, ritual initiation, social loyalty, and gender reversals, Master and Disciple is nothing less than a thoroughgoing revision of our understanding of authoritarian rule in Morocco and in the Arab world in general."—Clifford Geertz, Institute for Advanced Study

In addition to being a key source for pre-Fatimid Ismaili history, "The Master and the Disciple" is important as the most elaborate example of the narrated dramatic dialogue form in Arabic literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The streets are bustling, the flow of people is like running water. At the entrance to the small town, a thin and small figure staggered forward, bright red liquid oozing out of her body, swirling everywhere. Strangely, the roadside flowers and grass were already soaked with blood, and for a moment, it was like drinking a fairy spring, changing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon, the whole body of these flowers and grass was like there is a glint of prophecy. She squatted down to stroke the other flower and grass, her fingertips passed through the stem of the flower without any hindrance, her face was sad, she withdrew her hand, stood up and continued.
Download or read book The Master Plan of Discipleship written by Robert E. Coleman and published by Revell. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first disciples went out into all the world to spread the gospel, they didn't just make converts--they made more disciples, people who would grow in the faith and then go out to make disciples as well. Their world was a lot like ours, filled with skeptics, idolatry, and opposition, but also with hurting people whom God had already prepared to hear, learn, and be transformed. In the pattern of his bestselling book The Master Plan of Evangelism, author Robert E. Coleman offers a close examination of how Jesus made disciples and how his followers did the same throughout the book of Acts. Coleman then shows how to apply these methods to the modern church, which creates actual sustained church growth rather than simply a temporary boost in numbers. Pastors, church leaders, and those involved in teaching and discipling believers will find this book to be an invaluable resource to equip the saints, build fellowship, and grow their ministry.

Download or read book Following the Master written by Michael J. Wilkins and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the waves of discipleship programs that have swept over the church in the last 30 years, clergy, and laypersons alike are more confused than ever about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. What should a disciple of Jesus look and act like today? What is the relationship between discipleship and salvation, between discipleship and sanctification, between discipleship and ministry? How were disciples of Jesus different from other disciples in the ancient world? How did the early church carry out Jesus' agenda in "making disciples of all the nations"? In Following the Master, Michael J. Wilkins addresses these and many other questions that perplex the church today- not by offering another discipleship program or manual but by presenting a comprehensive biblical theology of discipleship. Following the Master compares other forms of master-disciple relationships in existence in the ancient Judaism and Greco-Roman world, traces Jesus' steps as he called and developed disciples, and Mediterranean world as it followed Jesus' command to make disciples. Following the Master lays the groundwork necessary for developing biblical discipleship ministries in the church, on the mission field, and in parachurch ministries. It is essential reading for all pastors, students, and Christian workers.

Download or read book Follow the Master written by Paul Barreca and published by Paul Barreca. This book was released on 2017-02-26 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discipleship is fundamental to the Christian experience. Jesus called and trained his disciples and commissioned them to go and make disciples of others (Matthew 28:19-20). That command compels Christians today and is the primary task of the Church. This course is designed to help you fulfill Christ's call to -come and follow me- (Matthew 16:24). These 34 lessons provide the foundational beliefs and behaviors of a mature disciple. Even though this course was created for new Christians, those who have not been intentionally discipled will grow through these lessons. You can use this as a foundation for your own personal Bible study or better yet, study with another Christian or in a group of fellow believers to grow in your knowledge of the Bible and live as mature disciples of Jesus.
Download or read book Every Believer a Disciple written by David E. Bjork and published by Langham Global Library. This book was released on 2015-06-14 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of Christianity in recent decades has been remarkable, but has it been growth with depth? Are our communities of faith, our churches, creating and nurturing deeply committed followers of Jesus? This book was born out of the realization that churches throughout the world, despite their numerous evangelization and spiritual development activities, are struggling to produce true disciples of Jesus. How can we explain why so many of us in our churches are so unlike Jesus in the way we think and act? What can we change in our understanding and practices to facilitate life transformation and spiritual multiplication? And as Christians what are we called to do? In answering these questions the author proposes an alternative ecclesial and missional paradigm, that will enable us to better equip and mobilize believers in the mission that Christ gave to his disciples and gives to us all, to make disciples!
