Showing titles in Discipleship

Diese Frage stellt der Apostel Paulus in seinem Brief an die Gemeinde in Korinth. Ihm geht es nicht um äußere Anpassung, sondern um eine tiefgreifende Erneuerung unseres Wesens – eine Veränderung, die von innen heraus geschieht. In einer Welt, die von Selbstinszenierung, Karrierestreben und Anerkennungssuche geprägt ist, lädt das Evangelium zu echter Ruhe in einer »gesegneten Selbstvergessenheit« ein. In diesem kompakten Buch zeigt Bestsellerautor Timothy Keller, wie die Gute Nachricht von Christus uns von der ständigen Ich-Zentrierung befreit.

Worship artist Christine D’Clario knows firsthand what it means to break down—and how God puts us back together.

Peter follows Jesus from a distance―close enough to see Him, but far enough to avoid being identified. When the pressure mounts, he famously denies Christ.

Using Peter's transformation―from denial at the fire to bold preaching at Pentecost―Johnson exposes the spiritual danger of distancing ourselves from Jesus.

Most Christians experience zeal early in their Christian life, but when that fades to a season of dryness, it's tempting to assume one of two things: We have failed or God is absent. So we throw ourselves into ministry, spiritual disciplines, and study in order to break through to the other side of this dry season, not realizing that willpower and habit modification cannot "fix" our spiritual lives or kick-start a new season of spiritual growth. Why? Because we've missed the point of the wilderness.

With all the hostility boiling just under the surface of our world, we need a renewed vision of Jesus as the Lamb of God who can lead us in the peaceable ways of the Kingdom. When we fail to keep Jesus at the center of our lives, we lean into the desires of our hearts more than the desires God has for us. As a result, our entire spirituality becomes driven by the self and for the self. We need renewed practices of centering Jesus in our hearts and minds. Derek Vreeland invites you to imagine what it looks like to keep Jesus as the Lamb of God at the center of three key areas of our lives.

Whether it's a painful end or a joyful beginning—or even an uncertain middle—theologian and minister Amy Davis Abdallah has found something that helps: rituals. In Meaning in the Moment, she shows why we need rituals to help survive and even thrive through various seasons of life.
