Download or read book The Lost Art of Disciple Making written by LeRoy Eims and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2009-07-13 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Every believer in Jesus Christ deserves the opportunity of personal nurture and development." says LeRoy Eims. But all too often the opportunity isn't there. We neglect the young Christian in our whirl of programs, church services, and fellowship groups. And we neglect to raise up workers and leaders who can disciple young believers into mature and fruitful Christians. In simple, practical, and biblical terms, LeRoy Eims revives the lost art of disciple making. He explains: - How the early church discipled new Christians - How to meet the basic needs of a growing Christian - How to spot and train potential workers - How to develop mature, godly leaders "True growth takes time and tears and love and patience," Eims states. There is no instant maturity. This book examines the growth process in the life of a Christian and considers what nurture and guidance it takes to develop spiritually qualified workers in the church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As children, we are prisoners to our surroundings. The nature of the people and visuals we see day in and day out are all we know. We don't have a clue what is beyond our realm of existence, and so it is difficult to break out of this sphere. Because of this natural shell, we often choose to stay within the comforts of mediocrity. But God has much more in store for us! All we have to do is choose to break out of this pit and follow His direction. How do we do that? Frances Seymour reveals the irony of mediocrity and its entrapment. Providing examples and encouragements from her own life, as well as poignant questions to meditate on and journal about, she shares simple yet effective ways that we can choose to move forward—to break the grip mediocrity has on our lives. Frances lived and learned many of these life lessons the hard way. Mediocrity to Maturity is as a personal journey through despair that will teach you how applying faith leads to repair—even in the midst of terrible loss.

Book excerpt: Here is a challenge to the individual believer in the Lord Jesus Christ to rise above the ordinary in his journey with the Lord Jesus Christ. Many Christians experience a small portion of the blessings God has personally hand-wrapped for them. These pages give a personal glimpse of the major blessings that God has in store for each person who takes on the name of Christ--that is, Christian. There is an explanation of ten major categories of blessings God has in store for each and every person who enters into a personal relationship with Him. It starts with a challenge to enter the Christian life in the only way possible, continues with a challenge to share the joy of knowing Christ, how to be victorious over temptation, how to get the trash out, how to successfully engage in spiritual warfare and win, how to plan for rewards to lay at Jesus feet, a challenge to live in such a way as to be ready for the return of Christ, and how depend upon His written word, the Holy Bible for cleansing and strength. Spiritual maturity is not a destination, but a journey from the moment of one's spiritual rebirth to the entrance into the presence of the King of Kings. This book won't make one mature, but it will show the believer how to navigate each leg of the journey.

Download or read book Maturity written by Osho and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 1999-11-30 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest spiritual leaders of the twentieth century encourages us to embrace the qualities of life our advancing years grant us in Maturity: The Responsibility of Being Oneself. In a culture infatuated with youth and determined to avoid old age at all costs, this book dares to raise a question that has been all but forgotten in the age of Viagra and cosmetic surgery. What benefits might lie in accepting the aging process as natural, rather than trying to hold on to youth and its pleasures all the way to the grave? Osho takes us back to the roots of what it means to grow up rather than just to grow old. Both in our relationships with others, and in the fulfillment of our own individual destinies, he reminds us of the pleasures that only true maturity can bring. He outlines the ten major growth cycles in human life, from the self-centered universe of the preschooler to the flowering of wisdom and compassion in old age. Osho’s sly sense of humor runs like a red thread through the book, along with a profound compassion and understanding of how easy it is to be distracted from the deeper meaning and purpose of our lives—which is, ultimately, to flower into our own individual uniqueness and maturity with an attitude of celebration and joy. Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their capacity to enjoy life in all its richness. He has been described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the “1000 Makers of the 20th Century” and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people—along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha—who have changed the destiny of India. Since his death in 1990, the influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a time when leadership and showmanship are seen as far greater virtues than humility and meekness.

In A Model of Christian Maturity he takes the reader step by step through an exposition of 2 Corinthians 10-13 and then helps them apply these Scriptures to everyday life in the church. Perfect for pastors, students, and laypeople, this book highlights the power of weakness in the life of the Christian.
