Authentically following Jesus demands more than reciting a sinner's prayer, adhering to the right beliefs, and striving to lead a morally upright life. It requires a revolutionary shift in the fundamentals of our worldview. This radical shift creates the essential environment for enduring spiritual transformation and is foundational in becoming a true disciple of Christ.
In his groundbreaking Sermon on the Mount, Jesus addressed how this radical transformation reshapes our core thinking and redefines our understanding of reality, enabling us to view life's challenges from God's perspective. Along the way, Jesus overturned conventional ideals of right and wrong, justice and mercy, good and evil, happiness, retaliation, and forgiveness. He asserted that the radical transformation demanded by the Sermon is inseparable from the formation of a biblical worldview. Our journey of radical discipleship begins here.
To gain a better understanding of this call to transformative discipleship and the impact our worldview has on this process, author Kent Kelley has written The Disciple's Manual, Volume 1 - The Framing of a Biblical Worldview: Understanding the Sermon on the Mount. This comprehensive study reveals that contemporary discipleship methods are inadequate because they detach the formation of a biblical worldview from the disciple-making process. In unpacking the Sermon on the Mount, the author examines what Jesus' call to radical transformation looks like in the trenches of everyday living while providing us with the essential building blocks of a biblical worldview.
Kent Kelley has devoted over forty-five years to discipleship training across three continents. As the visionary founder of Crossroads International, he has woven discipleship into the organizational and mission goals of Crossroads and its bases in South Africa, India, and Pakistan. Prior to this, he spent 15 years as a Youth Pastor and Discipleship Pastor in Southern and Northern California.
