RADICAL DISCIPLESHIP

Description

HENSWORTH JONAS

“A summons to true discipleship.” —Paul Washer What does it mean to be a true follower of Christ? “Be ye holy; for I am holy.”—1 Peter 1:16 Pastor Hensworth Jonas’s new book, Radical Discipleship, challenges professing Christians to live out Christ’s call to stand out in a hostile, sinful world. The modern church has replaced true discipleship with a soft, cowardly, perverted, and shallow iteration of Christianity. The radical departure of our generation from the truth in favor of an anemic Christianity must be answered with a radical return to doctrine and practice. “A careful reading of this book will result in a spiritual recalibration in all the areas of the Christian life that truly matter. His contrast between the God of the Bible and the designer god of contemporary Christianity is remarkable. His call for straightforward obedience to the Word of God is a summons to true discipleship.” —Paul Washer, founder and missions director of HeartCry Missionary Society “The Christian faith, by its very nature, must be radical. Light has come into the world of darkness. Thus, Hensworth Jonas’s call in this book for God’s people to pursue thorough holiness in this sinful world must be taken seriously. . . above all, this is a call to biblical Christianity.” —Conrad Mbewe, pastor of Kabwata Baptist Church and founding chancellor of the African Christian University, Lusaka, Zambia “In much of modern Christianity, the prevalence of worldliness has diluted the distinction between the church and the world. In the church today, there is relatively little demand for gospel clarity, sound preaching, genuine discipleship, Christ-centered suffering, and faithful church discipline. In this work, Hensworth Jonas shows that Spirit-worked, life-transforming, and radical discipleship is the divine cure for worldliness. . . You will not be disappointed by this excellent manual of Reformed, experiential, and practical Christian living!” —Joel R. Beeke, chancellor and professor of homiletics and systematic theology, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Reclaim the costly call to follow Christ by reading Radical Discipleship!
