Christian Disciplines (Lifebuilder Study Guides) - Paperback

by Andrea Sterk (Author), Peter Scazzero (Author)

More. Better. Quicker. Richer. Are the values of our consumer society invading the church? Are we looking for overnight success in following Jesus? For instant godliness? Discipline is not a popular word today, but the disciplined Christian life produces a depth that is life-enhancing, bringing joy and freedom. Christian Disciplines looks not only at the foundational disciplines of the Christian life - the 'quiet time', prayer, worship and Bible study - but other crucial disciplines such as evangelism, giving, social justice, managing time and gifts, mission.
