The Core of the Christian Faith (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

Internationally renowned author and speaker Michael Goheen helps readers understand the basics of Christianity in this accessible book. He explains that the church needs a process of formation that equips Christians to be faithful to the gospel, stand firm against the winds of cultural idolatry, and fulfill their role as the new humanity living for the sake of the world.

Drawing on his years of speaking and writing, Goheen unpacks the heart of the Christian faith through four key components. He lays out a formation process that guides Christians to (1) return to the good news as a comprehensive and powerful message of God's kingdom, (2) recover the Bible as the one true story of the whole world, (3) retrieve a deep consciousness of their missional identity, and (4) engage in a missionary encounter with culture. Together, these components form Christians to be faithful to their calling.

This succinct summary of Goheen's vision of the Christian faith will help local churches develop discipleship programs and encourage Christians to make formation a priority. The Core of the Christian Faith will appeal to laypeople, small groups, pastors, and church leaders. Videos to accompany the book will be available for small group use.
