Discipled by Jesus?Discipled by Jesus? Can 21st century Christians actually be discipled by Jesus? Perhaps more importantly, can one be a Christian, that is, a disciple of Jesus, if he is not being discipled by Jesus? This writing appeals to Scripture to affirm that Christians can be discipled by Jesus, and that they must be, and how they can be. The book further identifies how these who are truly being discipled by Jesus are thus being equipped to disciple others just as they have been discipled. “I simply will never be the same again…I’ve met Jesus a real Person who loves me, cares for me and desires relationship with me. I can hear Him and respond to Him as I would a beloved father, only closer still. I’ve been equipped to daily meet with Jesus, being discipled by Him, on my own and with others. All this I have learned sitting around a table utilizing the teachings of Pastor Hal Perkins, which are clearly presented in this book. Truly life changing!” Tanya Weron, mother and teacher.
The message is important, yes, but the writing isn't the best. Don't get me wrong-- it communicates effectively, but it hasn't been CRAFTED. The writing wasn't the goal of the authors, it was merely a means to an end. And the end is so important, that I do recommend this book.
