Follow Me Group Guide by Ed D David E Schroeder Pdf

The Follow Me Group Guide is a practical tool for learning how to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and how to help others become disciples. Following the methodology and themes Jesus used to train his Twelve, the Group Guide is a companion to Dr. David Schroeder's popular book, Follow Me: the Disciple-making Strategy of Jesus (aka Discipleship by the Book). Dr. Ravi Zacharias, popular speaker and author of many outstanding Christian books, has this to say about Follow Me: "David Schroeder wisely observes that the foremost task of the church is to make disciples and that genuine discipleship takes place in the context of intimate relationships. Conjoining scholarly research with rich practical and devotional insights, he examines values that Jesus taught-such as humility, compassion, and accountability-and shows how they can transform individuals as well as communities. I have known David for nearly four decades and commend his important work to you." Follow Me and the Group Guide present a biblical picture of a primitive and powerful brand of Christianity that was effective in its first few generations and would be effective in this generation if followed more faithfully. In this book, we enter into the heart of the Lord Jesus Christ to see the strategies which he communicated to his first followers. Undoubtedly the ways in which we might apply those strategies will differ from Christians in the first century because we must adapt them to different cultural settings. Nevertheless, human nature has not changed in twenty centuries, and these teachings of Jesus must still be the backbone of effective Christian witness. Taking a cue from Jesus, the Group Guide encourages disciple-making in small groups. The questions for discussion open group members to discover of What It (the biblical text) Says, What It Means, and What It Means for Me. Following the purposeful, progressive strategy of Jesus by focusing on character formation in three stages -- Learning Kingdom Values, Ministry, and Leadership -- the material helps the groups explore what it means to follow Jesus as a disciple in their personal lives, in the world, and in the church. Churches that adopt the strategy of disciple-making used by Jesus are certainly going to be change agents in their communities and throughout the world. That was Jesus' plan. That is your possibility.

Follow Me by Joanna Scott Pdf

On a summer day in 1946 Sally Werner, the precocious young daughter of hardscrabble Pennsylvania farmers, secretly accepts her cousin's invitation to ride his new motorcycle. Like so much of what follows in Sally's life, it's an impulsive decision with dramatic and far-reaching consequences. Soon she abandons her home to begin a daring journey of self-creation, the truth of which she entrusts only with her granddaughter and namesake, six decades later. But when young Sally's father -- a man she has never known -- enters her life and offers another story altogether, she must uncover the truth of her grandmother's secret history. Boldly rendered and beautifully told, in Follow Me Joanna Scott has crafted a paean to the American tradition of re-invention and a sweeping saga of timeless and tender storytelling.

Follow Me by David Platt Pdf

2014 “Christian Retailing’s Best” award finalist! What did Jesus really mean when he said, “Follow Me”? In this new book, David Platt, author of the New York Times bestselling book, Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream, contends that multitudes of people around the world culturally think they are Christians yet biblically are not followers of Christ. Scores of men, women, and children have been told that becoming a follower of Jesus simply involves believing certain truths or saying certain words. As a result, churches today are filled with people who believe they are Christians . . . but aren’t. We want to be disciples as long as doing so does not intrude on our lifestyles, our preferences, our comforts, and even our religion. Revealing a biblical picture of what it means to truly be a Christian, Follow Me explores the gravity of what we must forsake in this world, as well as the indescribable joy and deep satisfaction to be found when we live for Christ. The call to follow Jesus is not simply an invitation to pray a prayer; it’s a summons to lose your life—and to find new life in him. This book will show you what such life actually looks like.

Follow Me to Ground by Sue Rainsford Pdf

One of Literary Hub’s Favorite Books of the Year “Seethingly assured…like all the best horror, [Follow Me to Ground] is an impressive balancing act between judicious withholding and unnerving reveals.” —The Guardian A “legitimately frightening” (The New York Times Book Review) debut novel about an otherworldly young woman, her father, and her lover that culminates in a shocking moment of betrayal. “You’ve never encountered a father-daughter story like Rainsford’s slim debut” (Entertainment Weekly). Ada and her father, touched by the power to heal illness, live on the edge of a village where they help sick locals—or “Cures”—by cracking open their damaged bodies or temporarily burying them in the reviving, dangerous Ground nearby. Ada, a being both more and less than human, is mostly uninterested in the Cures, until she meets a man named Samson—and they quickly strike up an affair. Soon, Ada is torn between her old way of life and new possibilities with her lover, and eventually she comes to a decision that will forever change Samson, the town, and the Ground itself. “Visceral in its descriptions…this unworldly story is a well-crafted and eerie exploration of desire…beautifully intoxicating” (Shelf Awareness). In Ada, award-winning author Sue Rainsford has created an utterly bewitching heroine, one who challenges conventional ideas of womanhood and the secrets of the body. “A triumph of imagination and myth-bending…equal parts beauty and horror [Follow Me to Ground is] unlike anything you will read this year” (Téa Obreht).

Follow Me by J Lee Grady Pdf

God has placed the next generation into our hands. Who will raise them up if the church does not? This book will teach you how to effectively mentor the next generation of Christians. You will learn how to disciple others in their faith while getting outside of your comfort zone to increase your relationship with God. If we want to change the world with the gospel, we must stop focusing on crowds and events and reclaim Jesus’ method of relational discipleship. Jesus’ final mandate to His followers was “Go and make disciples”—yet today most of the church is oblivious to what discipleship is, and few Christians are actually investing their lives in helping other believers grow spiritually. A vast paradigm shift is needed in the church today in order to reach the next generation and advance the gospel in the twenty-first century. In Follow Me, J. Lee Grady uses many New Testament examples, as well as his own experience in mentoring dozens of young leaders and a clear strategy for discipling others that can be used by individuals and churches. Grady makes a compelling case that Christianity was never intended to be a spectator sport where huge crowds sit and listen to one preacher on a Sunday. Jesus intended all believers to engage in ministry—and this includes the work of discipling other believers. So many Christians today live in a box of limitation. We must understand that the Christian life is an adventure of the Holy Spirit working through them. This book will help believers get out of that box and begin the exciting adventure of spiritual multiplication.
