Following Jesus Jeffrey T Benda

Discipleship is a common term to Christians. But where did it come from, and what does it really mean? Today, far removed from the origin of the term and the practice, you may be confused about what discipleship to Jesus looks like and who is expected to live it. In Following Jesus: The Life of a Disciple, Dr. Jeff Benda walks you through crucial concepts for understanding how and why you as a believer should live as Jesus lived. Over eleven in-depth, interactive lessons, Following Jesus provides an explanation of -What discipleship to Jesus includes, -How Jesus designed discipleship, -How you can experience life change, and -How you can live out your faith practically in the real world. As you read key verses and reflect on the questions provided in each lesson, you will discover new insights about why Jesus came and what he offers to-and requires of-his followers, how the body of Christ should function, how the Holy Spirit can change your life, and how to pray and read God's Word with the purpose of developing your relationship with him. Including appendixes with supplementary information and leaders' guides for each lesson, Following Jesus can be used individually or in a group. This study will build a strong foundation for all who use it, including those believers just starting out on this great adventure of following Jesus.
