Is there a difference between a Christian and a disciple of Christ, or are they one and the same? Many people claim to be Christian, but few carry their own cross and live as committed, fruitful followers of Christ. In One Life Under God,Dr. Tony Evans explains the difference between being a Christian and being a disciple of Christ. He encourages you to evaluate your current spiritual condition in light of God’s Word while helping you understand what a surrendered life looks like. Total surrender and submission to God is the key to living life as He’s planned for you. If you are going to know God’s will for your life, your calling in the kingdom, then God must own all of you.

Where have all the disciples gone? There is a missing force in Christianity today. It’s a critical one, and its absence has led to weak believers, disintegrating families, ineffective churches, and a decaying culture. Without it, we lack what we need to fully live as heaven’s representatives on earth. That missing force is discipleship. In Kingdom Disciples, Tony Evans outlines a simple, actionable definition of discipleship to help the church fulfill its calling. Readers will learn: What a disciple is What a disciple cares about How to be a disciple and make disciples What discipleship looks like in community What the impact of discipleship on the world can be Kingdom disciples are in short supply, and the result is a legion of powerless Christians attending powerless churches, having a powerless presence in the world. The power, authority, abundance, victory, and impact God has promised will only come about when we understand and align ourselves with His definition of discipleship. Kingdom Disciples calls believers and churches back to our primary, divinely ordained responsibility to be disciples and make disciples. Only when we take seriously this assignment will the world see heaven at work on earth. Will you accept the assignment? Kingdom Disciples isuseful as base material for a course on discipleship.
