Review Quotes
Do we fully understand the model of Christ's ministry? Are we letting His method be our method? Do we believe that He had some superpower that we do not have at our disposal? Are we walking as Jesus walked?
All these questions--and many more--are well-addressed in the new book, 4 Chair Discipleship, by Dr. Dann Spader. I recommend the book for pastors, but even more eagerly suggest that church members engage this book with an open heart and a readiness to take a personal inventory of their walk with the Lord.
