Basic Training for Walking with Jesus


Book Description

In the military, basic training is what turns civilians into soldiers. In it you are taught all of the basic skills needed to be a soldier, skills that you will use for the rest of your military career. Your life will depend on your mastery of what you learn in basic training. In order to grow in our walk with Jesus, we need basic training too. These are truths and practices that you will return to over and over. These are the essential skills you revisit when you wander off the path. They are like guard rails keeping you from veering off the road into a ditch. They are the foundation you lay before building a house. You will use them for the rest of your life. As a follower of Jesus, you will build your life upon them.




100 Days with Jesus


Book Description

I have designed this book to help Christians who are ready to walk with Jesus. And especially for those who have had some basic training in the elements of NT Discipleship. As you start, if you are extremely blessed, you may become a disciple in 100 days. It took the Apostles over 1000 days in the direct, miraculous, personal presence of God, Himself! That is why 100 days might not be nearly enough time. But, with the Holy Spirit's help, it could be more than enough. And you could even find yourself so blessed that God uses you to start a Disciple Making Movement (DMM), which reaches your entire area for Christ! This has happened before and is happening today. Why not in and through you? God's great love is for you and your region, too!

Basic Training


Book Description

In writing this manual, it is my hope to deliver a clear understanding of the "why" and "how" the church is to minister to those in need of healing. We need to have a better understanding of what healing may or may not look like! This manual was written for the purpose of training Jesus's disciples in the ministry of healing. Inside these pages are a toolbox that can be used anywhere at any time. We must understand as Christ's disciples on the frontlines of life, the key to all healing is not in anything we do, except to flow with what Jesus is doing through our relationship with him! His ways are not our ways. He will go to any length to accomplish what is needed to have a relationship with those He loves. Every healing will be according to the will and purposes of God. It is essential that the reader knows the One who is the source of all healing""physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. We become whole in body, soul, and spirit because it is God's desire and Jesus's sacrifice! El Roi knows us and our troubles! It was the great commission that Jesus commanded His disciples to preach the Gospel to all people! Whoever believes the good news and is baptized will be saved, and whoever does not believe will be condemned. Miracle signs will accompany those who believe. They will drive out demons, speak in tongues, protected from snakes, and from drinking anything poisonous. They will lay hands on the sick (diseased and dis-eased) and heal them. It is my prayer that you will be blessed with a deeper level of wisdom, knowledge, and revelation from God to minister wholeness to others as the Holy Spirit leads you in the ministry of healing.




Habits of Grace


Book Description

The Christian life is built on three seemingly unremarkable practices: reading the Bible, prayer, and fellowship with other believers. However, according to David Mathis, such “habits of grace” are the God-designed channels through which his glorious grace flows—making them life-giving practices for all Christians. Whether it’s hearing God’s voice (the Word), having his ear (prayer), or participating in his body (fellowship), such spiritual rhythms of the Christian life have the power to awaken our souls to God’s glory and stir our hearts for lifelong service in his name. What’s more, these seemingly simple practices grant us access to a host of spiritual blessings that we can only begin to imagine this side of eternity—and the incredible joy that such blessings bring to God’s children today.




Walking Together on the Jesus Road


Book Description

Make discipling culturally relevant. Christians who serve Jesus among people from a different culture than their own often struggle to find a good way to disciple people. Walking Together on the Jesus Road addresses this need by guiding readers through three essential practices for making disciples across cultures: listening to disciples to get to know them and their context, focusing on relationships with Christ, fellow disciples, and others, and enabling disciples to live out their faith in culturally relevant ways. These practices are the foundation for the long-term, intentional process of helping disciples from other cultures become more like Jesus. The book also engages with practical challenges, such as enabling disciples to find and belong to a nurturing community of faith, as well as contextualizing the way we teach the Bible.

The Other Half of Church


Book Description

Could brain science be the key to spiritual formation? Why does true Christian transformation seem fleeting? And why does church often feel lonely, Christian community shallow, and leaders untrustworthy? For many Christians, the delight of encountering Christ eventually dwindles—and disappointment sets in. Is lasting joy possible? These are some of the questions Michel Hendricks has considered both in his experience as a spiritual formation pastor and in his lifetime as a Christian. He began to find answers when he met Jim Wilder—a neurotheologian. Using brain science, Wilder identified that there are two halves of the church: the rational half and the relational half. And when Christians only embrace the rational half, churches become unhealthy places where transformation doesn’t last and narcissistic leaders flourish. In The Other Half of Church, join Michel and Jim's journey as they couple brain science with the Bible to identify how to overcome spiritual stagnation by living a full-brained faith. You'll also learn the four ingredients necessary to develop and maintain a vibrant transformational community where spiritual formation occurs, relationships flourish, and the toxic spread of narcissism is eradicated.
