Act Like Jesus Study Guide With Dvd

In this eight-session video Bible study, pastor and author Randy Frazee explains there is a difference between simply believing something in our heads and allowing those beliefs to shape our actions and behaviors. It is not enough to think like Jesus . . . we must also act like Jesus. For this reason, once we understand what we believe, we need to yield to the direction of the Holy Spirit and allow him to lead us to those biblical practices that will bring about spiritual transformation in our lives. As we do this, the Holy Spirit will lead us to make these resolutions: I will worship God for who he is and for what he has done for me. I will pray to God to know him, find direction for my life, and to lay my requests before him. I will study the Bible to know God and his truth and find direction for my daily life. I will dedicate my life to God's purposes. I will fellowship with Christians to accomplish God's purposes in my life and in the world. I will seek to understand my spiritual gifts so I can use them to fulfill God's purposes. I will give my resources to fulfill God's purposes. I will share my faith with others to fulfill God's purposes. Grounded in carefully selected scripture, Act Like Jesus is a churchwide discipleship program that will take you on a journey to become more like Jesus in your behaviors. This revised study, adapted from Part 2 of the Believe churchwide study, includes an updated video study and new content and questions adapted from the existing Believe Study Guide and Think, Act, Be Like Jesus by Randy Frazee.

Randy Frazee walks you and your group through the spiritual workouts we need every day to develop a lifestyle of loving God and loving others. We all want to live more like Jesus lived, but simply wanting to and trying harder isn't enough. To truly become like Jesus, our beliefs need to not only inform us but also transform us. It is the practice of reaching up to God and out to others that will drive beliefs from our head to our heart. Act Like Jesus teaches the life-giving spiritual disciplines that will lead us in fulfilling our mission to love God and love our neighbor. In this 8-session, video-based Bible study (DVD/streaming video sold separately), you'll develop practices such as: How to pray more deeply and attentively. How to develop lasting, Christ-centered relationships. How to share your faith with authenticity. And you'll explore the answers to essential questions like: How do I worship God? How much of my life does God want? How do I use my money to serve God? What spiritual gifts has God given me?

The Bible teaches that the goal of the Christian life is to become like Jesus—for our own personal growth and for the sake of others. Every believer needs to ask three big questions: What do I believe? What should I do? And who am I becoming? In Think, Act, Be Like Jesus, bestselling author and pastor Randy Frazee helps readers grasp the vision of the Christian life and get started on the journey of discipleship. After unfolding the revolutionary dream of Jesus and showing how our lives fit into the big picture of what God is doing in the world, Frazee walks readers through thirty short chapters exploring the ten core beliefs, ten core practices, and ten core virtues that help disciples to think, act, and be more like Jesus Christ. This compelling new book can be used in conjunction with the 30-week all-church Believe campaign or read separately as an individual study. Either way, readers will deepen their understanding of what it means to not just know the Story of God, but to live it.

Randy Frazee teaches you and your group how to confidently know what you believe and how to dig into Scripture to see for yourself the biblical foundation for those beliefs. Think about the last time someone put you on the spot and questioned what this whole Christianity thing is all about. Maybe they asked you why going to church matters, or how you could possibly believe the Bible, or how God could really care if there's so much bad happening in the world. Do you feel unsettled by questions like these? In this 8-session, video-based Bible study (DVD/streaming video sold separately), you'll dig into eight key beliefs about a Jesus-follower's relationship with God and with others. And you'll explore the answers to essential questions like: Who Is God? Does God Care About Me? How Do I Have a Relationship with God? How Does the Bible Guide My Life? Who Am I in Christ? What Is the Purpose of the Church? How Does God Value People? What Is Eternity Going to Be Like? This study is adapted from the Think portions of the Believe Study Guide and Think, Act, Be Like Jesus by Randy Frazee. It’s designed for use with the Think Like Jesus Video Study (9780310118558) available on DVD or streaming video, sold separately.

Have you ever asked yourself what changed when you were "born again?" You look in the mirror and see the same reflection - your body hasn't changed. You find yourself acting the same and yielding to those same old temptations - that didn't seem to change either. So you wonder, Has anything really changed? The correct answer to that question is foundational for receiving from God. If you lack this basic understanding, you'll forever ask yourself doubt-filled questions like: "How could God love somebody like me?" and "How can I possibly expect to receive anything from the Lord? I don't deserve it, I'm not good enough!" Spirit, Soul, and Body will help you eliminate those and other doubt-filled questions that destroy your faith. If you have trouble receiving from God, this is a must-read!

In this eight-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), pastor and author Randy Frazee explains that our spiritual transformation involves not only thinking and acting like Jesus but also allowing those thoughts and behaviors to shape our attitudes. As we do this, we experience a new way of looking at the world and discover an inner strength that allows us to remain steadfast, secure, and solid in the face of any circumstance. We also discover a new desire to serve others . . . which, in turn, draws them to the love of Christ. We know we are becoming like Jesus when we possess these attributes: I have a deep love for God and for the other people in my life. I have inner contentment in spite of my circumstances and understand my purpose in life. I have freedom from anxiety because I am at peace with God, others, and myself. I have experienced the power, through Christ, to control my thoughts and behaviors. I have patience in the unavoidable pressures of life and am slow to anger. I have the desire to be kind and good in my relationships with others. I have established a good name with God and others based on my loyalty to those relationships. I have become thoughtful, considerate, and calm in my dealings with others. Grounded in carefully selected scripture, Be Like Jesus is a churchwide discipleship program that will take you on a journey to become more like Jesus in your behaviors.
