A Firm Foundation in Financial Turmoil
People have started praying again during the financial crisis gripping the world. We seek a spiritual sanctuary guarding us from monetary insecurities and rampant materialism.
The book Walk the Walk by Calvin Hooper lays a firm foundation towards an ongoing practical living out of new found faith. It shows how man and God live out a lifelong two way relationship of sanctification and redemption.
The Christian faith does not merely concern the content of what we profess, but also and especially what we do with it. Jesus' last message to his disciples was precisely about discipleship and evangelization.
Discipleship is the realization of the commitment that our faith requires from us. It is the practical living out of the principles of faith, hope and love. Jesus sets out the principles of discipleship in the four Gospels and the apostles follow it up in the letters to the faithful.
Eden Media, a publisher of good and accessible Christian books, has just released a guide to the eight essentials of true discipleship. Walk the Walk by Calvin Hooper, a pastor from Texas in America, teaches Christians to let mere talk about matters of faith develop into walking with God.
He discusses guidelines such as discipline, integrity, perseverance, prayer and love according to the acronym DISCIPLE. His clear analysis is guided by an incisive explanation of the relevant Bible texts. The reader is guided through eight steps to fully-fledged discipleship. Through Walk the Walk the reader discovers the eight essentials to living the Christian life.
Hooper is a gifted author with a special ability to address young and old in lucid language. Walk the Walk is aimed at Christians from all denominations, and is concerned with the fundamentals that bind us together in the body of Christ. He employs references to the Old and New Testament to explain that faith is cultivated with a conscientious Christian walk of faith. Then the faithful bear the fruits of their faith in abundance. Streams of living water flow forth from faithful servants of Jesus to a thirsty world, which often misinterprets the positive Christian faith.
Walk the Walk is a concise guide that may successfully be used for Bible study by groups. It is also ideal for the youth ministry, as a course in discipleship and for workshops. A list of questions for discussion and revision is included at the end of each chapter.
Hooper has already served almost twenty years in the ministry. He is a visionary church leader, who trains the members of his church, The Household of Faith Fellowship, from being recently converted to becoming serving church members and finally missionaries ministering to the world. He is married to Valerie and they are blessed with five children.
Readers in the USA and Canada can order Walk the Walk from the author at The House Online on the internet.
Walk the Walk is published in South Africa by Eden Christian Media.
