Following Jesus’ Example: A Guide to Evangelism and Discipleship

Following Jesus’ Example: A Guide to Evangelism and Discipleship is a workbook designed to focus on the first chapter of Mark. As the reader delves into the pages, they will engage with text that helps them understand and embrace how relationships with Jesus give us hope in hopeless situations. The reader will gain a greater understanding of the value of spreading and receiving the “Good News” of the Gospel. Additionally, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the power of forgiveness and what it means to be a Christian. Following Jesus’ Example helps Christians understand that wilderness experiences will come, butthese experiences do not automatically mean defeat. Instead, the reader learns the value of wilderness experiences by recognizing that they are not alone if they are following Jesus. The followship of Jesus requires us to forsake all and act in radical obedience. It may seem like you are losing those things you have released, but the reality is that you gain much more by choosing Christ. One of the most significant gains is authority through the Holy Spirit. As Christians, we must acknowledge that we have power and authority through Christ Jesus. A strong relationship with Jesus Christ, the practice of spiritual disciplines, and the activation of your faith in Christ develop this power and authority. As you embark on the study of Mark Chapter One, approach it with an open mind and anticipation for God to work in your life. You are called to be a disciple, and you are expected to go and make other disciples through evangelism!
