Kingdom Disciples : Heaven's Representatives on Earth (Hardcover)

There is so much conviction in this book. Even as a Christian that hears His voice and sees His hands move in my life constantly, I draw so much from this book on how to make a greater impact for His Kingdom. I completely love this book, as so many of Pastor Evans books. It's not about if you are ready or not to be His Disciple, we are all called to His side to disciple others. It doesn't require anything out of the ordinary if He doesn't speak it into your heart, we disciple every day in our interactions with others everywhere we go. All it takes is obedience to His word and His voice. You have to read this! If you want to grow deeper in your relationship with Christ, see His power work in your life, and let His power work through you, this is the key to start you on the right path.

Curious why Christianity seems so powerless in our culture? Interested in learning more about discipleship? Need to be motivated to make disciples? This is your book! It will fire you up to change the world through Jesus Christ! I agree wholeheartedly with Dr. Evans' premise. The point of the book is that kingdom disciples are in short supply and that too many Christians are professing in name only without the power and authority of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Section 3 was my favorite and it fleshes out what kingdom discipleship looks like individually, in the family, and in the church. This book dispels positive Christian cliches and "name it and claim it" theology, instead proving from Jesus's own words that discipleship comes at a cost but that the cost is well worth paying for our Savior and Lord. I rated it at 4 stars instead of 5 only because it was a heavy read for me. I had to read some sections several times to really digest the material. Additionally, the first chunk of the book is spent convincing the reader that many professing Christians aren't kingdom disciples. My guess is that most people who are interested in this book are already convinced of that. Overall, this book gives a great definition of kingdom disciples and encourages readers to be Heaven's representatives on Earth. I recommend it!
