Formation has become an increasingly central idea in Christian churches in recent years. It embraces learning and living the faith as a disciple, and preparation for ordained and lay ministries. Christian discipleship faces many challenges today many people have little or no knowledge of the Christian faith, and Christianity itself goes against many of societys predominant values and attitudes. Formation addresses all these issues, aiming to develop discipleship in the areas of being, knowing and doing. This book is a resource for all who have any kind of responsibility for Christian formation clergy, educators, spiritual directors, youth pastors. Part One explores the various secular notions of fulfilment that hold sway today. Part Two sets out a theological account of human transformation through Christ and maps its convergence and tension with contemporary culture. Part Three shows how Christian formation today can be nourished by worship, doctrine, spirituality and engagement with secular society.

Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$12.99In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), bestselling author Max Lucado explores the life and character of Jesus, helping participants become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told. As Max explains in this study, for thirty-three years Jesus felt everything that we have ever felt: weakness, weariness, rejections. He got colds. His feelings got hurt. His feet grew tired. His head ached.
To think of Jesus in such terms almost seems irreverent. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. Clean up the manure from around the manger. Wipe the sweat out of his eyes. Pretend he never snored or hit his thumb with a hammer. There is something about keeping Jesus divine that keeps him distant, packaged, and predictable.
But we have to remember that by Jesus becoming human, God made it possible for us to see him and hear his voice. If we want to know what matters to God, all we need to do is look in the Bible to see what matters to Jesus. If we want to know what God is doing in our world, we need only ponder the words of Jesus. By learning more about the person Jesus was and is, we come to understand more clearly the people we were created to be.
Jesus will inspire group members to spend time at the foot of the cross and search the heart of the one who would rather die for them than live without them.
Designed for use with the Jesus Video Study (sold separately).
