Описание:
What do you behold? Whatever it is, you will be shaped into that image.
Discipleship is the primary task Jesus gave the church in this age, so every believer must answer two questions:
Am I making disciples?
Am I discipling people and being discipled according to the biblical paradigm?
Discipleship is often reduced to acquiring new information, embracing certain disciplines, or adopting certain behaviors, but this is not the heart of discipleship. You can know information, live a disciplined life, and behave properly yet not be discipled. At its foundation, discipleship is a process that produces transformation as a people corporately behold the beauty of God in the person of Jesus. If discipleship begins in any other place, it may accomplish some valuable things, but it has lost sight of its biblical framework.
We have taught people how to behave, but have we taught them how to behold?
If people embrace certain rhythms and engage in certain disciplines but are not fascinated by the beauty of God, then they are not discipled. Accordingly, we must lead people to behold God and be transformed into His image. God is not looking for a people who behave like Him. He is looking for a people who become like Him.
In Discipleship Begins with Beholding discover:
Why biblical discipleship is centered on corporately beholding the beauty of God in the person of Jesus.
Why beholding has always been central to God's purposes for His people.
How corporate beholding is foundational to the way God relates to His people beginning in the Garden of Eden and continuing through the Exodus, the Tabernacle of David, and the New Testament church.
How God plans to accomplish His purposes through a people who behold Him and become like Him.
How to behold the beauty of God on your own and together with others.
Why simple disciplines like singing are far more powerful than we realize.
The great need of our time is a people who are beholding the beauty of God by the Spirit and are satisfied in Him.

Описание:
In eternity past, there was nothing when, suddenly, divine desire shattered the darkness and created a cosmos filled with creatures. God formed the cosmos and one creature in particular to fulfill His divine desire. But what is that desire? What does God want?
Everything in this age has been made for two reasons:
God wants to be known-This age has been designed by God to reveal the deepest parts of His person.
God wants a people formed into His image-God is using this age to shape and form a companion into His image.
Biblical discipleship is a process of reorienting our lives around God's desire. If you know why God created everything and why this age exists, you can live a life of wisdom aligned with His desire. If you do not fully grasp these two reasons, your life will not be fully aligned with His purposes. Tragically, most people do not realize God's purpose for this fallen age, so they live aimlessly out of sync with His desire.
Can you imagine the shock so many will experience when they realize they did not live with God's purposes for the age in mind?
In What Does God Want? discover:
Why God created the cosmos and how we cooperate with His burning desire.
Why sin did not stop God's plan, but instead revealed aspects of God's nature that could not have been known otherwise.
How the Father is leading history to answer Jesus' passionate prayer.
Why God's plan to reveal Himself is incomplete without a people formed in His image.
Why a corporate people must become the undeniable evidence that Jesus exists.
Why the mature end-time church is the most neglected end-time theme and how this theme must influence our discipleship.
Are you ready to align your life with God's desire?

Описание:
For many believers, the return of Jesus is a subject that seems confusing. When they hear someone speak about the end times, they can feel as if they've shown up for the last ten minutes of a movie without getting to see the first hour and a half. The end of a story always contains surprises, but it's the logical conclusion to the story. The key to understanding the end times is found in connecting the main themes of the end times to the overall redemptive story. Grasping these key points helps you make sense of the main themes of the biblical story and their logical conclusion.
Biblically speaking, the cross did not fulfill all the promises of God-it secured them. Tragically, we have neglected much of what the Bible says about the fulfillment of God's promises. However, the full magnitude of what the cross accomplished is revealed in both what was accomplished when Jesus died and what will be fulfilled in the events we refer to as the "end times." God has staked His honor on His ability to fulfill specific promises, and the plan of redemption is not completed until these promises are fulfilled. The atonement was accomplished at the cross, but there is more to the story. It Must be Finished.

Описание: Daniel 7 is not just an end-time chapter. Based on Jesus` words, Daniel 7 is a gospel-centered chapter and perhaps the premier summary of Jesus` majesty. If we do not know this chapter, we cannot fully grasp the gospel. Let Daniel open your eyes to the gospel as Jesus proclaimed it.

Описание: What is the message that turned the world upside down?When we examine the New Testament carefully, we find something surprising: Daniel 7 was a framework repeatedly used to present the gospel of the kingdom. Come, view the apostles` gospel through the lens of Daniel 7, and rediscover the message that turned the world upside down.
For the first time in history, the church is facing two unprecedented events:
The gospel may reach all people within a generation.
For the first time in history, the whole earth is watching God's purposes for Israel unfold.
Most Christians read the Old Testament as a story about Israel and the New Testament as a radical shift from Israel's story to the story of the nations. However, Israel and the nations are deeply connected in both the Old and New Testament. The New Testament is neither the beginning of God's purposes for the nations nor the end of Israel's story.
When we understand the overarching context of the Old Testament and Israel's story, we find God has a single redemptive plan for Israel and the nations. The Great Commission was not a dramatic shift in God's plan, nor was it a new idea. It is the means of fulfilling God's promises to Israel and the nations.
In Israel and the Great Commission, discover:
How the Old Testament lays the foundation for the Great Commission
How Israel and the Great Commission are deeply connected
How Israel's story continues in the New Testament
How Paul understood God's plan to save Israel and the nations
