The Character of Christ

Overview

Romans 8:29 reveals God’s purpose for each and every one of us - that we ＂be conformed to the image of His Son.＂ Transformation into Jesus’ character is an important process, and this book is a stirring challenge and manual written by five qualified, effective Christian leaders to help you equip your church.

Application questions are provided at the end of every chapter. There are also group discussion questions at the end of each chapter that can be used by leadership teams to create dialogue, tear down silos, wrestle with core values, create shared meaning, build camaraderie, and discuss ways to enhance the systems and processes your church uses to promote and facilitate transformation.
