Journal of Discipleship and Family Ministry, Volume 2
Overview
Theological journals are a tremendous resource for biblical studies. However, anyone who has searched for copies of theological journals knows that they are difficult to find and impossible to buy. Even if you are fortunate enough to have a library of journals in print form, they take up lots of shelf space. With the print editions, finding a topic or Scripture reference can be difficult. The Theological Journal Library combines several of the best conservative, scholarly, evangelical journals and classic works on church history. This massive set allows you to rapidly search through each title for specific words, phrases, topics, authors, or passages.
Top Highlights
“Paul’s letter to Titus is marked by an earnest desire to see the gospel proclaimed, preserved, and passed on. As such it contains a succinct yet poignant treatise on discipleship. This is not to say discipleship is the sum total of Paul’s message in this letter, but it is a crucial element. For Titus’s mission to succeed, he will have to ‘teach what accords with sound doctrine’ (2:1) and ‘urge the younger men’ (2:6); he must ‘in all respects … be a model of good works’ (2:7); he must ‘show integrity, dignity, and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame’ (2:7–8). He is to ‘declare these things’ and to ‘exhort and rebuke with all authority’ (2:15), and to ‘remind them’ (3:1).” (Volume 2, Number 1, Page 74)
“Maturity in Christians is marked not by gray hair but by the fruit believers bear in keeping with their sanctification.” (Volume 2, Number 1, Page 76)
“We’re actually raising our children with a view toward leading them to trust and to follow Christ.” (Volume 2, Number 1, Page 74)
“‘What do we expect our family ministry to accomplish?’ Or, to put it in more clearly curricular terms, ‘What is the purpose of family ministry in our congregation?’” (Volume 2, Number 1, Page 64)
“Discipling our children is not about teaching them to behave in a way that won’t embarrass us.” (Volume 2, Number 1, Page 74)
