Jesus commissioned His people to Go Make Disciples. His words formed the mission statement for the Church it s our main priority, our primary calling. So why do we struggle so much to do it? Why do we excel in many areas of ministry, yet not what is central?There are many reasons for this challenge, but perhaps the greatest is the tendency of the Church to separate community and discipleship albeit often for legitimate reasons. Discipleship community is messy because people are messy; it was certainly the case with Jesus disciples and the Early Church.
Despite these challenges the first Christians pressed on to embrace their calling, leading to an incredible transformation that is still changing the world. But in recent years, the church has tended to create alternatives in order to make our calling more efficient by reducing discipleship to a class or an individualized process. The only problem is that it s lost its power.
This book calls you to rediscover the impact of authentic discipleship community. It equips you to lead small groups that provide both relationship and discipleship. Whether or not you ever lead a small group, this resource trains you in a simple discipleship process that anyone can facilitate. Discipleship is not complicated, but it will take commitment and it will bear lasting fruit. Best of all, you can do it!

Go Make Disciples: Embrace Jesus' Last Words As Your Main Calling

Greg Murtha's high-achiever life didn't go as planned. Not even close. Cancer interrupted it. And in Greg's words:
 That's a good thing because, without cancer, I would never have embraced the joy of following Jesus with reckless abandon or experienced the exhilaration of sensing the promptings of the Holy Spirit. I would never have acted in obedience to what he leads me to do (what he has wired me to do) or joined him in his master plan.
 In God's grace, he allowed me to get so sick I had to slow down, abandon my plans, move out of the way, and learn to trust him by just being. Frankly, I would rather enjoy life this way (God's way) if only for a few years, than live for decades wrapped up in my small, timid plans and the insecurities present in that lifestyle.
 Without cancer, I would have remained that somber, self-righteous, smug, narrow-minded Christian who turns people off: the Christian who judges instead of loves, clings tightly to the status-quo plan, and thinks he can earn God's approval. The Christian who misses the joy of simply following Jesus the way he intended. You might say, cancer got me out of my performance-based, fearful existence and into the bigger story the grand adventure.
 Following Jesus in the unexpected led Greg to life-giving exploits, and he wants the same for you. Because lots of things interrupt our well-planned lives. Out of the Blue will help you embrace interruption as adventure, rather than adversity. It will lead you to the exhilarating bigger story God's story and your unexpected role in it.

Passion & Purpose: Believing the Church Can Still Change the World (Updated Version)

DISCOVER GOD'S PURPOSE FOR YOUR MONEY ... God has either already planted or wants to plant an adventurous dream inside each of us - dreams to have an impact and to change the world! But, in order to see these God-sized dreams accomplished, we must REALIGN our lives with God's way of doing things. God's original purpose for our money is to know Him and make Him known! DIG DEEPER INTO GOD'S WORD ... Changing beliefs about our finances is not something that mere reprogramming can accomplish. Simply giving ourselves good thoughts and pep talks might work in the short-term, but we need more. Our thinking must be transformed by something stable and secure - the unchanging Word of God. EXPERIENCE DEBT FREE LIVING ... Perhaps you are not really sure there is enough money to make it to the next paycheck, let alone to pay the mortgage. Or maybe, you find yourself trapped in an every-escalating façade, requiring more and more spending to maintain appearances. Well, if any of this is you, welcome to the fellowship of the broken. Wherever you are in your financial story, there is a way for you to be debt free. GO ON AN ADVENTURE OF GIVING ... God is in the business of recruiting men and women who will jump up off of the couch and run out the door to explore the adventure He has in process. More than hoping you will be a happy giver who regularly puts twenty bucks in the offering plate, God is after your heart. ABOUT REALIGN ... - REALIGN addresses financial issues from the inside out. - REALIGN puts God in His rightful place where we are living for His Kingdom and not our own. - REALIGN emphasizes the need for God's leadership and daily input in our financial decisions. - REALIGN translates across racial, ethnic, and economic lines - REALIGN deals with the whole person, not just their finances. - REALIGN calls for living simply and saying no to materialism, greed and gluttony. - REALIGN deals with the foundational issues and sins that cause poor financial decisions. - REALIGN invites people to live open-handed and be willing to give everything away.

REALIGN: Finding God's Purpose for Your Money

Josh Lawson

Did you know that when you give your life to Jesus, all of Heaven stops in your honor to celebrate?That's why Jesus died on the cross, ladies and gentlemen. He Himself bore our sins on his body ... so that we could be saved. His joy is to free us. To bring us home. And as we come to our senses and behold the depth of our sins, confessing our need to Him, crying out for freedom, He comes running, picks us up, and throws us a party.
You will learn that: 
Heaven and Earth were created for our enjoyment
The party that God invites us to is so much better than anything the world has to offer
You win people to Jesus with a partying attitude
At the end of our days, there is an unimaginable party awaiting us in Heaven

This workbook was designed to be used as a companion to the book, Parenting Without Regret: Raising Kids with Purpose, Not Perfection, by Jimmy and Laura Seibert. We all know that life and its seasons go by so quickly. Psalm 90:12 says, So teach us to number our days, that we may present to You a heart of wisdom. This Psalm challenges all of us to be intentional about how we live each day, making the most of what He has given. Parenting is no exception. The days with our kids during their formative years fly by. If we are not intentional in how we spend that time, our kids will be grown and the most precious ears of opportunities to invest in and shape them will have passed. Parenting is a privilege given to us by God. We all love our kids so much - wouldn't it be great if love alone could carry the day? But actually shaping a child takes time, focus, community, connecting to the Holy Spirit, knowing what the Word says, a lot of perseverance and practice, and tons of prayer. Jimmy and Laura's prayer is that as you read their book and process through the workbook pages, that you are able, with the Holy Spirit as your guide, to slow down, reflect, and hear His direction as you raise your family.

Our nation is experiencing a clash of worldview. You may not have thought of it in those terms, but you've probably felt it. As a result, we don't just disagree on the issues, but on the fundamental worldview shaping the issues. 
 Cultural Christianity shaped our worldview for centuries. This perspective taught us to behave according to God's commands, or at least to look like it. Many are still influenced by this worldview, which urges us to return to a particular way of living. Increasingly, these calls fall on deaf ears, and for a good reason.
Secular Humanism now shapes our nation. This belief system encourages us to be true to ourselves and good to others. This mode of thinking has become our culture's default and probably affects you more than you realize.
Cultural Christianity and Humanism appear to be opposites, but they share a common thread: our ability to do good.
The message of Jesus, however, is different. He teaches that we can't keep God's standards by our own efforts. We're inherently flawed, which means that being true to ourselves often leads to hurting others. The Gospel is a proclamation of grace, one that transforms us from the inside out and frees us to love others sacrificially.
