- Backcover, Discipled by Jesus
Discipled by Jesus, Your Ongoing Invitation to Follow Christ
by Robert Gelinas is a book filled with thoughts, experiences, and discussions.
There are numerous scriptures in this book that the author quotes leaving more
of a bible study reading than discussion.
One example, in Chapter Five: Learning to Pray in the Spirit
has over thirty bible scriptures within twenty-two pages. This is what going to
a bible study class does to help you learn the Word. I would liked to have seen
more discussion and personal experiences, or maybe take less scriptures and
discuss them at length.
At one point, Gelinas refers to a previous book he authored left
me thinking maybe he wants me to purchase his other book. There is a place for
that in the end pages of any book.
Although my particular view of this book not being up to par,
I still recommend for those who are seeking more understanding of being a
follower of Christ. There are more than enough scripture references to research
from this book.
I received this book from Tyndale Blog Network in exchange for
an honest opinion in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission guidelines.
