Synopsis

Trusted pastoral leader and guide Linda Perrone Rooney challenges readers to live as disciples -actively putting into practice the values, behaviours, and teachings of Jesus. With exceptionally graceful prose, Rooney walks readers through the gospel, moving from understanding to transformation - from head to heart to action - combining the intellectual and spiritual ahas that impel us to follow Christ more intentionally. Rooney eloquently describes eight scripturally based steps that lead readers to a change of heart: surrender oneself daily, live as a blessing, overcome violence, give for the right reasons, pray like Jesus, see the good in others, offer compassion and healing and live without fear. A lively mix of meditative and practical explorations, the text includes chapter questions, journaling, prayers and guides for action. Walking the disciples path is a tall order, a difficult pursuit, and a radical blessing - a realisation that Christians need and that Rooney helps them internalise.
