Download or read book Handbook for New Converts written by William J. (Bill) Morgan Thd and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most churches have a poor to non-existent method of training new Christian converts. Therefore, the new convert has very little knowledge on how to make the transition from living the sinner’s life living a separated life that is filled with forgiveness and charity. They aren’t trained to forgive and forget the sins and trespasses that are rendered against them. They know not that the Holy Spirit lives in their heart and will tell them exactly what to do in every step they take and how to respond to every encounter they have, whether it be positive or negative. They know not that God will take care of the regardless in the wake of slander, financial hardships, or physical devastation. They hear sermons from the pulpit about tithing but have no concept how to start or how it will affect their life if they start tithing on a regular basis. They are unprepared to deal with gossip and verbal bullying that they will encounter. They are members of a church for years and have no concept of how to effectively pray in public or how to witness effectively to a lost person. This book is not written for a specific denomination. It is written as a guide to all new converts.

Download or read book Discipleship Handbook written by General Conference Sabbath School and Personal Ministries and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no higher calling than to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. Nothing compares to knowing and following the Savior of the world. To know Him is to love Him, and to follow Him is a wonderful adventure. Still, the discipleship journey is full of pitfalls and snares that threaten to lead us away from the narrow path that leads to heaven. If the devil had his way, every Christian would be lulled to spiritual slumber or led into forbidden paths that would steal the heart away from God. Therefore, even after we are baptized, it is imperative that we continue to grow into active and mature disciples of Christ. The Discipleship Handbook will benefit anyone seeking such an experience with Jesus. It may be used for personal study or in Sabbath schools, prayer meetings, small groups, or one-on-one settings. It is more than a book about discipleship. Rather, it contains everything needed for a six-month, Bible-based discipleship plan for Seventh-day Adventist churches and their members. The Discipleship Handbook was developed to ensure that the most essential areas of discipleship are covered. The devotional life, personal witnessing, church life, Christian lifestyle, and evangelism each receive special emphasis. For newer members, the 26 chapters of the Discipleship Handbook serve as the heart of 26 weekly meetings with a more experienced mentor.
