THE TWELVE STEPS OF JESUS CHRIST: From “Follow Me to “Go and Make Disciples

Jesus never called people merely to admire Him. He called them to follow Him.Christianity is more than believing that Jesus existed, knowing the right doctrines, attending church, or learning Christian language. Jesus Christ calls His disciples into a life of repentance, faith, surrender, transformation, mission, and perseverance.The Twelve Steps of Jesus Christ: From "Follow Me" to "Go and Make Disciples" is a Scripture-heavy, twelve-week discipleship journey built around twelve commands and invitations of Christ: COME. REPENT. BELIEVE. FOLLOW. DENY. TAKE UP. ABIDE. LOVE. SERVE. FORGIVE. GO. ENDURE.These are not twelve works by which we earn salvation. Salvation is the gift of God through Jesus Christ. Instead, these twelve steps describe the life of response that grows from grace. The journey unfolds through five movements: CALL - Come, Repent, Believe SURRENDER - Follow, Deny, Take Up TRANSFORMATION - Abide, Love, Serve, Forgive MISSION - Go PERSEVERANCE - EndureEach chapter is rooted in the words of Jesus and supported by substantial biblical exposition, Old and New Testament cross-references, biblical case studies, memory verses, reflection questions, interpretation and application exercises, group discussion, weekly faith practices, and closing prayers. This book asks a question that reaches beyond information: What is Jesus asking me to do with what I have just learned?Because discipleship is not merely knowing the teachings of Christ. It is learning to obey, remain in, become like, and follow Jesus wherever He leads. Whether you are a new believer, a longtime Christian, a pastor, chaplain, ministry leader, Bible-study teacher, small-group leader, or someone returning to Christ after a difficult season, this book invites you back to the words that began the journey: "Follow me."Twelve steps. One Savior. One gospel. One life increasingly surrendered to Jesus Christ.
