Discription

There’s a course in discipleship right in the Gospel of Matthew. The very meaning of life is to live and serve with Jesus, who brings the reign of God. In a word, it is discipleship.  We dwell with him and learn from him and embrace his mission as our own.  As we do, he remakes our hearts, binds us to one another, and empowers us to partner with him in his penetrating action to transform the world. Partnering with the King presents thirty-one readings about discipleship, meditations covering the whole Gospel of Matthew, to be read by individuals daily for a month or by groups, for example, weekly from fall to spring. Discussion questions are included. For newcomers to faith, the book can serve as a guide into the Christian life. For more seasoned Christians, it is a source of renewal and vision.
