God's Plan for LeadersDallas Willard's bestselling book The Divine Conspiracy revolutionized how we understand Christian discipleship. Jesus is not a remote savior, waiting for us in heaven after we die, Willard taught, but a leader and teacher to whom we apprentice ourselves to fulfill what Jesus had in mind when he declared that the "kingdom of God has come." In The Divine Conspiracy Continued, Willard and theologian Gary Black Jr. lay out the next stage in God's plan as this generation's disciples enter into positions of leadership and transform the world from the inside out. Christians are not called to protect themselves from the world but to step into the world to lead and serve, and in doing so, bring the kingdom of God to earth.

Mal ehrlich: Als Christen unterscheiden wir uns doch kaum von unserer Umwelt. Ein Jünger Jesu zu werden, gilt in vielen Kirchen als Option: Es scheint zu genügen, Christus als Erlöser anzunehmen und sich zu bestimmten Glaubenssätzen zu bekennen, um Christ zu sein. Doch können wir einfach ignorieren, dass Jesus uns auffordert, unser Leben mit ihm zu verbringen? Ihm nachzufolgen? Zu werden wie er?Wer auf die Nachfolge verzichtet, bringt sich um dauerhaften Frieden und ein Leben, das von Liebe durchtränkt ist. Einem Christsein ohne Nachfolge fehlt genau das Leben in Fülle, das Jesus uns versprochen hat. Wir sollen Gott von ganzem Herzen, von ganzer Seele, mit all unseren Gedanken und all unserer Kraft lieben. In diesem Buch zeigt Dallas Willard, wie genau das gelingen kann.

To often, prayer seems only to be a dreary exercise that must be endured or a difficult skill that must be mastered. When we misunderstand its purpose and practice, we easily fall out of the habit of praying regularly. As a result, we miss one of the greatest opportunities to deepen our friendship with God. In Prayer: The Transforming Friendship, James Houston explores the transforming power of prayer, illustrating how prayer begins to change our lives and then how the way we live changes how we pray. Through clear and compelling examinations of the Scriptures, Dr. Houston shows the often-misunderstood spiritual realities of prayer. And through candid accounts of his own struggles to pray effectively, he will encourage you to engage boldly in the life-changing practice of intimate conversation with God. Dr. James M. Houston, a prolific author, editor, and Christian scholar, is the founding principal, former chancellor and emeritus professor of spiritual theology at Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia. A native of Scotland whose parents were missionaries to Spain, he is recognized around the world as a leader in educating laypeople for effective ministry and in helping to restore spirituality to evangelicalism. His other book include The Mentored Life, The Heart's Desire, and Joyful Exiles.
