CBM Christian Book Review - Discipleship for Authentic Christian Living – Glorifying God

Title: Discipleship for Authentic Christian Living – Glorifying God
By: Dr. Robert N. Carrow 
A CBM Christian Book Review
10.0 out of 10.0

Creating a “single, concise, Scriptural overview of the authentic Christian life, helping Christians to become all that God has called them to be.” With that in mind, Robert Carrow, a Professor Emeritus of the University of Georgia and a long-time Bible teacher, deacon, and follower of Christ, releases Discipleship for Authentic Christian Living – Glorifying God. 

In his new book,  Discipleship for Authentic Christian Living – Glorifying God, readers are encouraged and taught a Biblical overview of the Christian life and how to practically apply and meditate on scriptures with the aid of the Holy Spirit’s leading. This is an insightful book that gives real-life tools to discover your passion and live out the abundant life in Christ.  

This book gives Christians the tools to enhance their walk with Christ, to become a disciple of Christ and a true believer in Christ. He states there is a difference. Understand that one can believe in Christ but not be walking the pathway of righteousness or abiding in Christ, but observing from the sidelines. Such a person is not one abiding under the shadow of the Almighty. 

His book presents an easy-to-read overview of the Christian life. Within that Christian life are 7 sections that encompass a true, born-again believer, that will aid in maturity and vision for their life. Such steps are: Vision, Motivation, Primary purpose in life, Maturity in relationships ( with the Father, Son, Holy Spirit, believers, unbelievers), Ministry in Prayer, spiritual gifts, vocation, and all roles of life, Being an overcomer regardless of circumstances, and Leaving a Godly legacy. 

As he states, “Thus, this is a study to help, especially in providing an overall vision of what the Christian life entails and the pathway to living it.”

This is a phenomenal study for personal or small group Bible study that provides a pathway to vision for your life and one that, as the title states, “Glorifies God.”

A highly wonderful and highly recommended read!
