The Invitation

Description

What if everything you thought you knew about Christianity was just the beginning? What if the abundant life promised wasn’t just a future hope, but a birthright waiting to be claimed today? Perhaps the simplified faith so prevalent has left many missing out on the full inheritance Christ secured.

The Invitation explores these questions, diving deep into what it truly means to be “in Christ.” Rather than revisiting familiar doctrines, it serves as a guide to discovering your authentic self. In this work, Lee Brown/L.B. Vesper, Ph.D. challenges passive faith, inviting you on a journey to discover your identity not merely as a believer but as part of God’s inheritance.

Prepare to expand your understanding of life in God’s Kingdom as you explore the implications of being chosen by the King of Kings. The Invitation presents a fresh perspective on citizenship in God’s Kingdom, revealing how to live purposefully in this world while influencing it with the values of another. It challenges ineffective Christianity, encouraging you to step into your role as a partner with Christ, an ambassador of light in a world often shrouded in darkness.

This is more than a call to action; it’s an invitation to be deeply known by your Creator. It’s about exchanging frustration and unfulfillment for a purpose-driven life guided by love and truth.

Will you accept The Invitation to embrace transformation and emerge as a vessel reflecting God’s character? Will you begin a journey of growth, guided by grace and motivated by love?

The world waits. Will you move beyond religious tradition to follow Christ authentically? Will you become the person God intended, or will your potential remain unrealized? The choice is yours. Discover the life of purpose and fulfillment that awaits as you embrace your identity as a citizen, a disciple, a child, and God’s cherished inheritance.

The Invitation offers a thoughtful exploration of Christian identity, urging readers to reconsider conventional understandings of faith. The book suggests that many Christians operate with an incomplete sense of their identity in Christ, creating a gap between beliefs and experiences.

The book examines four dimensions of Christian identity and their implications for daily life. The author defines identity as the essence of a person that shapes their authority, behavior, purpose, and rights, emphasizing the importance of understanding one’s identity in Christ to grasp the transformative power of redemption.

Through historical and cultural research, the author presents insights related to kingdom citizenship, discipleship, divine sonship, and being God’s inheritance. The book explains that through adoption, one gains both privileges and responsibilities, emphasizing the need to reflect God’s character as His children, and highlighting how these actions help expand His kingdom on earth.

The Invitation offers practical guidance for spiritual growth and living abundantly—a valuable addition to any library.
