As your children grow, will their faith grow too? As both stories and statistics attest, the number of evangelical children who abandon Christianity in adulthood is staggering.

This audiobook could be for you a great source of restoration and renewed zeal. The Lord Jesus Christ calls all who receive him as their lord and saviour into ''the disciple's life".

Cada cristiano tiene la responsabilidad de conocer la Palabra de Dios y compartirla con los demás. Pero en un mundo marcado por el pecado, la falsa enseñanza está en todas partes. Muchas personas oscurecen, distorsionan o cuestionan lo que Dios ha revelado en las Escrituras, incluso algunos líderes de la Iglesia. Para estar mejor preparados como testigos de Cristo, debemos identificar la falsedad y el daño devastador que conlleva.

The Lord Jesus said, “By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be my disciples.” In the heart of every believer, there is the yearning to bear much fruit, to bring many others to the Lord and to present those who are brought to him mature in Christ. Many believers are not bearing fruit as they should. They have therefore decided to be content with the fruit of Christian character. This ought not to be so. The Lord wants character, but he also wants people brought to him in large numbers and built up to be like him in every way.

Many believers want to serve the Lord. Many aspire to be servants of the Lord. This is wholesome. However, not many believers have asked themselves what this service of the Lord is. It is easily discernable that most of what people call the service of God is really the service of man...The obstacle to becoming the servant of another man is self. When self is dealt with, a person can become the servant of God and, with increasing dealings with self, the servant of God can become the slave of God and, with even more dealings with self, the slave of God can become the slave of all men.

The thought of many is that when a person is saved, God forgives him and wipes away all the consequences of his past sins - that he is free. His freedom is so complete that he has no responsibility to rightly terminate with the past and to carry out restitution to those he wronged then. This audiobook clearly examines that way of thinking in the light of the Scriptures and sets out the biblical message for those who have overcome and those who want to overcome.

Discipleship is a very costly business, and in moments of severe trials, one may be tempted to ask, “Why go into all this trouble of suffering with Christ? Why not give up? Is there any reward?” A disciple of Christ is a person who has, first of all, received the Lord Jesus Christ as his or her personal Savior and is therefore reconciled to God, and, secondly, has set his whole heart, mind, and all to seek him.
