Recreated to Be like God: Making Disciples in the Image of Jesus

A GUIDE TO CONFORMING DISCIPLES INTO GOD'S IMAGE

Why is it so important that we be and make disciples of Jesus? Can't we just be "saved" and go to heaven when we die?

In Recreated to Be like God, Curt Erskine explains how God originally created humanity to be His image bearers. However, after the fall, our ability to function as the image of God was ruined. We must be restored to our original design.

Scripture also teaches that Jesus alone is the perfect image of God. If we will imitate and obey Jesus as His disciples, then we will be conformed into the image of God that we were originally created to be. The practice of conforming disciples into God's image is vital to the church. Read Erskine's book to learn how to live out this practice in your life as a disciple maker.

Will challenge the reader to examine what they say about discipleship and, more importantly, what their life says about discipleship.
