"An everyday encounter at a jewelry store prompted Cynthia Heald to ask a humble question: is it even possible to live as Jesus lived? When we go about our daily lives, are we showing the people around us that we are becoming like Jesus? What does it even mean to become like Jesus?"--Page [4] of cover.

When Jesus spoke the "Blessed are . . ." Beatitudes, He didn't say they were a formula for happiness or the keys to the kingdom. Instead, they were a declaration from God about believers despite our weaknesses and failures. The Christian life is not up and to the right but a lifelong series of highs and lows that the Holy Spirit uses to shape us into a person who looks like Jesus. In this book, Matt Chandler guides readers through one of the more famous passages of Scripture--Jesus' beatitudes (Matthew 5). Most Christians read these "Blessed are . . ." statements and think, Once I get it all together, then I'll feel blessed. But that's not what Jesus said. When introducing the beatitudes, Jesus didn't describe eight different kinds of people but eight qualities of the same person. These beatitudes are not what make you a Christian. But if you are a Christian, over time Jesus is going to turn you more and more into this kind of person that reflects God's kingdom. You can't just decide to be poor in spirit. You can't just determine that you'll be meek or disciplined enough to be pure in heart. No, as you seek a deeper and more intimate relationship with Jesus Christ through the Gospels, He will develop in you a new way of living that helps you: understand how desperately you need God, mourn not only your sins but the state of the world, humbly serve the Lord instead of build your own kingdom, hunger and thirst for right relationships with God and others, show mercy because of how merciful Jesus has been to you, seek purity by living with integrity and being transparent, share the peace and good news of Jesus wherever you go, and remember your heavenly reward when enduring persecution on earth. Wherever you are in your journey, whatever your stage in life, or no matter beatitudes are more challenging right now, you can be sure that God is shaping you into someone who looks like Jesus. Don't be discouraged, because every high and low, every victory and loss, is being used by God to move you forward.

Spirituality is finding a center at the core of your being that connects, organizes, and defines every aspect of your life. For a Christ follower, that center is knowing Jesus. Christian spirituality is intensely relational. When asked to explain spirituality in a nutshell, Jesus said, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and all your strength.” And then he said, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” For a Christ follower, spirituality is about loving God and loving others. Spiritual growth is about becoming mature in all of its dimensions. The Bible encourages us to be become “mature in Christ”. The Scriptures define maturity as growing into the “fullness of the measure of the stature of Christ”. Becoming more like Christ is the fruit of a growing spirituality. Conversion is the initial step in the spiritual journey, but Christlikeness is the goal. Francis Chan, in his book Multiply, writes It’s impossible to be a disciple or a follower of someone and not end up like that person. Jesus said, ‘A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher’ (Luke 6:40). That’s the whole point of being a disciple of Jesus: we imitate Him, carry on His ministry, and become more like Him in the process.” The Great Commission calls the church collectively and each follower of Christ personally to “make disciples of all nations.” A disciple is literally a learner, a follower, an apprentice of Jesus Christ. But what should a mature disciple look like? Bill Hull, in The Complete Book of Discipleship, describes being a disciple as becoming like Jesus Christ in... His Convictions – Believing what Christ Believed His Character – Living Like Christ Lived His Spirituality – Training like Christ Trained His Relationships – Loving like Christ Loved His Service – Ministering like Christ Ministered His Purpose – Leading like Christ Led (mission) This collection of essays seeks to reflect on what it will take to “making disciples” at the local church level. Hull’s characteristics provide a conceptual grid for thinking through the implications of following through on Christ’s command. Chuck Coats begins by unpacking Jesus’ reliance on the Scriptures as the foundation for what he believed and taught. The Sermon on the Mount inspires Michael Wilkinson’s discussion of what it means to live like Christ lived. Rob Bedard explores Jesus’ approach to discipleship as illustrated in his training relationship with Peter. Jeff Beck then discusses how the Father’s love for Jesus serves as a paradigm for his life of love and for ours. Mick Nelson reflects on what ministry modeled on Christ’s example means for serving others in our current contexts. In the final essay, Nelson also discusses the implications of Jesus leadership style of submission, sacrifice, and service for our own spiritual leadership. It is the desire of the contributors that these essays will serve as a catalyst for thinking through what it means to make disciples through local church and that it will help pastors and congregations.

When it comes to the Bible, many people find some of the concepts difficult to understand. There is so much to learn and to understand. Even those who have lived a faith-based life may find it difficult to understand some of its history, especially in the context of the culture in which it was written. Author Doug Tweed’s book Be with Jesus, Be Like Jesus, Be for Jesus: A Path to Christian Maturity and the Next Great Awakening is insightful and biblically rooted. It is both an important book and an easily remembered motto for Christians seeking personal spiritual maturity and a great awakening in our nation and world. With the support of over 575 scripture citations, Tweed persuasively asserts that the key to both maturity and revival is agape love that focuses on three things: (1) intimacy, (2) sanctification, and (3) mission. Be with Jesus, Be Like Jesus, Be for Jesus: A Path to Christian Maturity and the Next Great Awakening, uses historical and cultural lenses to prepare you for the next Great Awakening as well as to live a better, more faith-filled life in the present. You will find this work as engaging as it is informative.

We often hear the rhetorical question, "What would Jesus do?" The reality is, in many instances, we know what Jesus would do. We have a written record, which we refer to as the Bible, that gives us a window into the life of Jesus. He faced many of the same things that people face every day. Rather than asking, "What would Jesus do?" a better question is, "What did Jesus do?" Jesus lived a life and faced struggles just like us. Think about an area of your life that you struggle in the most. The odds are, Jesus experienced the same thing. If we want to live a life that honors God, it's worth exploring what Jesus did when he was faced with difficult circumstances in life. That's what this book is all about. Learning from the life of Jesus so that we can become like Jesus ourselves! In an age where so many teenagers are caught up in a self-focused life, What Did Jesus Do? shows them a bigger, better, and bolder way to live--one patterned after Jesus's life on Earth and focused on His cause of making disciples. As teens learn to walk in the way of Jesus, they'll not only find solutions for their everyday struggles like anxiety and peer pressure, but they'll also discover deep joy and enduring purpose as they partner with Jesus in His mission to seek and save the lost. What Did Jesus Do? points the way. -- Greg Stier, founder and visionary, Dare 2 Share Ministries Sometimes we talk about salvation as cosmic fire insurance, getting to go to heaven when we die. But when Jesus preached the good news, he described it as the kingdom of God coming to earth. We get to experience God's will being done on earth as it is in heaven, just as we see in Jesus's own life. By exploring what Jesus did, Evan Christopherson leads us back to the reality that God's transforming work in our lives is central to our experience of salvation as we encounter his grace. -- Ben C. Blackwell, PhD, Director of Houston Theological Seminary Evan Christopherson (BA in Christianity, Houston Baptist Unviversity; MDiv in Youth and Family Ministries, Liberty University) is the student pastor at Clearpoint Church in Pasadena, Texas. He is married to his lovely wife, Haley Christopherson, and they have two daughters, Zoe and Lainey.

Forty Meditations for Your Journey Toward Christlikeness. The Christian life is a journey of spiritual and moral transformation into the glorious image and likeness of God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. This journey is lifelong. We begin this journey when we first believe in Jesus, but will not reach our final destination until the final resurrection, when our bodies will be raised, transformed, and glorified, as we are fully and finally conformed to the image of Christ. As with any lengthy journey, sometimes Christians lose their way. We can become disoriented and confused. We mistake the terrain we have already traversed, lose sight of the road on which we tread, and forget the destination to which we travel. Sometimes we take detours. Or we get stuck on the side of the road. All of us sometimes need help. In To Be Like Jesus, Brian G. Hedges provides a series of encouraging road signs—brief meditations, with questions for personal reflection and application, to help you in your journey toward Christlikeness.
