The religion that Christ brought to us is not an empty form or a mindless ritual. It was never designed to be practiced just on Sunday. Rather, He calls us to maturity, to becoming fully grown Christians. He challenges us to enter through the narrow gate and walk the difficult path. His religion is challenging, it is transforming, and it is costly.This book explores some of the fundamental principles that Christ laid down for His disciples. These include the Christian life as Christ defined it, the significance of His Christian community, and the worship He expects of His disciples.In addition, this book explores the leadership that Christ ordained for His Christian community.
