Description

Whether you desire a fresh look at what it means to be a disciple or are new to the idea of Christian discipleship, this workbook is a gospel-centered guide to what Jesus means when he asks us to follow him.

Why is there so often a divide between being a Christian in name and being a true follower of Jesus They should be the same thing. But learning how to follow Jesus--to live into the name Christ-ian by working to become like him--takes a lifetime of devotion and a renewed focus on the gospels.

Author and professor Scot McKnight teaches what it means to follow King Jesus by helping individuals and study groups:

• Understand the biblical meaning of the gospel
• Learn (or re-learn) how to properly read the Bible
• Live as disciples of Jesus in all areas of life
• Show the world God's character through the community of the church

Based on four of McKnight's bestsellers (The King Jesus Gospel, The Blue Parakeet 2^nd edition, One.Life, and A Fellowship of Differents), this workbook is designed for personal study and disciple-making groups of two or more. These 24 lessons on discipleship essentials will help you develop a proper framework for being a disciple in your relationship to God, yourself, fellow believers, and the world.
