Author Description:
J. OSWALD SANDERS (1902-1992) was a Christian leader for nearly seventy years and authored more than forty books on the Christian life including The Incomparable Christ, Spiritual Discipleship, Spiritual Leadership, and Spiritual Maturity. He left a promising law practice in his native New Zealand to serve as an instructor and administrator at the Bible College of New Zealand. Dr. Sanders later became general director of the China Inland Mission (now the Overseas Missionary Fellowship), and was instrumental in beginning many new missions projects throughout East Asia.
Product Description:
As J. Oswald Sanders points out, true discipleship is more than intellectual assent to a belief in Christ---it involves the whole person and lifestyle.
Those with only a superficial belief will soon fall away from the faith, but Sanders says a true disciple would rather be presented with a difficult challenge than a soft option. Disciples are charged with the task of training themselves to be godly, because it is their responsibility to remain spiritually fit. Ever-fresh topics in this time-tested volume include:
- the disciple's second chance
- the disciple's ambition
- the disciple's senior partner
- the disciple's olympics
- the disciple's right
- the disciple's maturity
In addition, a "For Reflection" guide is included, making this book ideal for both individual and group study.
