The purpose in writing this book is to share with you, the readers and followers of Jesus, the deeper meaning of who we are as Christians. It may come as a surprise to many that the Christian life is not a "surprisingly easy task." The roots go deep as we will explore.
Christianity is a new way of life. You might also say it's a journey or a walk of endurance and obedience to our Lord and King. Another way to say this is that it's a walk of faith as we strive to obey God's commands.
So what is a Christian? Glad you asked. A Christian is simply one who follows the teachings of the very incarnate son of God--Jesus. Unlike all other world religions, Christianity is a personal relationship with the God and Creator of the Universe!
* It begins with a call to believe in God: O Seeker, Is God Calling?
* This is followed by the big eternal question, But Why, God, and Why Me?
* Digging deeper at the heart of the Gospel is A Call to Obedience--Ouch!
* Followed by living out that new life in A Call to New Life in Christ
* And finally, a discussion on the undergirding of our Christian walk: A Call to Grow in Our Faith
Faith is a big topic and is what God gives us to keep everything in balance.
This book seeks to entertain certain points along life's journey. These five essays touch on various topics that we all, as Christians, struggle with at times. And as a bonus, there's a self-study/Bible study to work through.
