A Comprehensive Guide to Discipleship in the New Testament and Today's World
Although the concept of discipleship is an integral part of New Testament teaching, it has largely faded from discussion in both the academy and the local church. To revive and reclaim this teaching for believers in the twenty-first century, editors John Goodrich and Mark Strauss have assembled an expert team of scholars to uncover what every New Testament book teaches about discipleship, providing a comprehensive, biblical picture. In addition, other contributors explore discipleship in the context of the local church, spiritual formation, and the life of the mind. Together, these essays point the way forward for becoming more like Jesus Christ, and helping others do the same, in our personal and corporate lives. "An impressive roster of scholars who have addressed a vital but often neglected topic in both the church and in the academy. . . . Rich with insight, Following Jesus Christ represents a major advance in this essential area of study." --Craig A. Evans, Houston Baptist University "We are treated here to a survey of what discipleship means in the New Testament from experts in the field, and we also see some of the wider dimensions of discipleship in this important work. All those wanting to understand discipleship will find this to be a valuable resource." --Thomas R. Schreiner, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

"The eminently readable volume has achieved this goal in a comprehensive and consistent manner, and thus is itself an act of discipleship which should provoke readers in the church and in the academy to assess how we read the Biblical texts and how we shall live in the church and in the world."--Eckhard J. Schnabel, Distinguished Professor of New Testament at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (09/10/2019)
"John Goodrich and Mark Strauss have assembled an impressive roster of scholars who have addressed a vital but often neglected topic in both the church and in the academy. It is only right that this important collection of studies on discipleship is dedicated to Professor Michael Wilkins, whose excellent work on discipleship is widely recognized and appreciated. Rich with insight Following Jesus Christ represents a major advance in this essential area of study. "-- (09/10/2019)
" Indeed, a careful reading of this book would do much to reestablish a vision of what it is to be a disciple of Jesus, learning from him how to live life in his Father's kingdom by the Spirit."--Steven L. Porter, Professor of Theology and Philosophy, Biola University (09/10/2019)
