Salvation is a one-time event. It happens the moment someone believes in Jesus for everlasting life. Discipleship is a long term process.

Not knowing the difference between salvation and discipleship keeps many people from experiencing either. This audiobook will clear up confusion on these two important messages found throughout the Bible.

This audiobook combines a serious examination of the state of today's church and a powerful solution: reclaiming the gospel of grace found in the confessional truths of the Reformation. Though the Christian church has achieved a worldly sort of success - big numbers, big budgets, big outreaches - these are not good days for evangelicalism. Attendance is down, and it is increasingly difficult to distinguish so-called "believers" from their non-Christian neighbors - all because the gospel of grace has been neglected.
