Discipleship That Transforms

The education ministry of the church is undergoing great changes in the 21st century. Few pastors and seminary professors even call it 'Christian education' these days, preferring terms such as 'spiritual formation,' 'Christian formation,' or simply 'discipleship.' Whatever label you give it, this remains one of the most important tasks of the local church: teaching believers how to grow up into the fullness of Christ. In this textbook, thirteen Christian educators provide an orientation to the church s teaching ministry from a Wesleyan holiness perspective. They explain the educational implications of human free will, prevenient grace, Christian perfection, and other vital concepts of Wesleyan theology.
