Book excerpt: Go Ye: A 27-week intensive discipleship course The word "disciple" is grounded in "discipline," so we should have a disciplined approach in teaching people how Jesus reacted in every situation. People need to be taught to live and breathe the Word of God. We can only teach them by spending time with them and immersing them in the Word of God in a systematic approach. What is discipleship? Too often, new believers come to Christ and don't receive the mentoring they need to discover how to live the abundant life Christ offers. They can easily become disillusioned with the Christian life simply because they don't connect with the power Christ offers. Christ taught us to not only reach the lost, but to teach the lost: "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." Utilizing modern-day parables, Jack Adams helps readers connect with Christ's commands. As you work through the Go Ye course of study, you'll learn to clearly and effectively explain what you believe and why you believe it. Each lesson in the workbook introduces a topic, teaches a principle, and invites you to discover the truth in God's Word. You'll benefit from working through Go Ye if: You desire to find out if the Jesus of the Bible is real You want to understand God's kingdom better You desire to articulate what you believe You want to be able to lead others to Christ You want to disciple others You simply want to know Jesus better REVEREND JACK ADAMS is the founder of Matthew 2819 Ministries, which supports gospel crusades and short-term missions around the world. His first book, Go Ye, a 27-week intensive discipleship course, has trained hundreds of believers in the foundational truths of the Christian faith. His second book, You Are Now Free to Walk with God, helps new believers understand how to embrace their newfound faith and fully experience their new life in Christ. Adams lives in Texas, where he serves his local church and community.

Download or read book The Jesus Command written by Matthew Milam II and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me..." (Matthew 11:29 NIV). Any image, no matter what kind, is simply a rendition of the original. the copy must follow the impression made by the master. In unlocking the pattern of making a "True Disciple", a close and detailed study of Jesus, the master, must be considered. Discipleship is an important charge, carrying a great responsibility. When entering the task of preparing another as a disciple, heed should be taken. Care--and caution--play a big part in the equation. In both instances, whether one serves as instructor or student, as Jesus said, one must above all, consider the cost. "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won't you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?" (Luke 14:28 NIV) Rather than being an event that one arrives at, Discipleship is more of a journey that is traveled over the course of one's life. Each step is part of a process by which we adapt, learning to grow more Christ-like along the way. We take His yoke and learn from Him, just as the men who became His Apostles did. the cost necessary involves not only a loving devotion to Jesus, but to do so from a willing and obedient heart. the Jesus Command, the command to love one another as He loved us, creates a new beginning for everyone that accepts it.

Download or read book TRIPLE THREAT DISCIPLESHIP written by Dr Brad Ball and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making disciples matters to God and should matter to the church and every Christ follower. This book proposes to deal with the necessity of making disciples and how to disciple a new or young Christ follower. In America, I believe this is a key issue for us to address. I have heard many people in the church say, "I was converted, but never discipled." I will be encouraging, exhorting, and urging you to return in your personal life and in the church to disciple making. I will give you some helps through what I call a Triple Threat Discipleship model using three key verses as the basis for this book: 2 Timothy 2:2; Matthew 28:18-20; 1 Timothy 4:7-8. In this book, I will make clear the necessity of following the command in Matthew 28:19 to make disciples. "Go, baptize, and teach" all support the command of making disciples. In the churches I have been in over the years, they do a fairly good job at winning the lost to the Lord Jesus and baptizing them, but they have not done a good job at teaching them how live out this newfound faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. - Brad Ball If you are looking for an accessible nuts-and-bolts strategy for making disciples, either personally or in the context of your local congregation, then Triple Threat Discipleship is for you. I highly recommend it. - Dr. Ken Easley Professor of Biblical Studies and Director of Graduate Programs, School of Theology and Missions, Germantown Regional Campus, Union University, Pastor, McLean Baptist Church, Memphis Being introduced to true Discipleship by Dr. Ball has had a tremendously positive influence on my walk with Christ. My faith has never gone through a more transforming and inspiring process. Being a part of his D-Group opened my eyes to a completely new lifestyle of remaining in God's word, committing scripture to memory, and living daily in a spirit of prayer. - Jason B. Page, church member, age 41 Aside from salvation, joining a D-group with Dr. Ball has been the greatest thing to happen to my life! If you honestly and truly go in seeking God's will then it will change your life in every aspect. - Caleb Wilson, church member, age 26 Brad Ball received his Doctor of Ministry degree in Expository Preaching at Union University in Jackson, TN, and now is currently the Senior Pastor of Bethsaida Baptist Church in Dublin, GA. Brad has pastored and served at churches in Tennessee, Mississippi, and Florida for twenty-five years. He is the founder of Triple Threat Discipleship, which is a blog and teaching ministry focused on making disciples. Brad is passionate about preaching the gospel and the Word of God and making disciples who make disciples. Brad and his wife, Janice have been married for twenty-five years. Janice is a disciple maker and very much involved in the ministry at Bethsaida."

Download or read book Building a Discipling Culture written by Mike Breen and published by 3dm International. This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Much ink and many pages have been devoted to all of the missional issues facing the Western church today. As our culture becomes more post-Christian with each passing day, we are all realizing that what has worked in the past is no longer working, that we are far less effective for the Kingdom than we were even 10 years ago. But we would suggest it isn’t because we don’t know what the Great Commission states or the imperatives of the Gospel, or that our church services just aren’t getting it done. It’s because we are in the midst of a discipleship crisis in the Western church. The people sitting in our pews are rarely becoming like the people we read about in Scripture. They may come to a worship service, join a small group or even tithe, but their lives just don’t seem to look like Jesus’ life. The truth of the matter is that we don’t have a missional problem or leadership problem in the Western church. We have a discipleship problem. If we make disciples like Jesus made them, we’ll never have a problem finding leaders or seeing new people coming to faith. The central issue is that we have no idea how to make disciples who can do the things that Jesus did for the reasons Jesus did them. Building a Discipling Culture is the product of more than 25 years of hands-on discipleship practice in a post-Christian context that has turned into a worldwide discipling movement, dealing specifically with how to make the types of missional disciples Jesus spoke of. We all want to make disciples. Most of us are unsure how to do it. Dallas Willard put it this way: 'Every church needs to be able to answer two questions. One, do we have a plan for making disciples? Two, does our plan work?' For most of our church communities, we have a plan, but the plan isn’t working. If you find yourself in this situation, this book is for you." -- Publisher's description.

With over 35 years of perspective on the modern-day Christian homeschooling movement, both as a homeschooled student, and homeschooling mother, Ruth brings a challenge to pursue holiness, without embracing legalism. With exquisite balance, she helps parents to reach their child's heart with the gospel, and avoid merely training him or her to externals. With candor and honesty, Ruth calls us all to strive for a high calling, but avoids presenting her family as having already arrived at perfection. This book is bold and compassionate. It is both challenging and affirming, and adds practical tips along the way.
