Radical Discipleship: Uncompromising Conviction in a Hostile World

“In much of modern Christianity, the prevalence of worldliness has diluted the distinction between the church and the world. In the church today, there is relatively little demand for gospel clarity, sound preaching, genuine discipleship, Christ-centered suffering, and faithful church discipline. In this work, Hensworth Jonas shows that Spirit-worked, life-transforming, and radical discipleship is the divine cure for worldliness. Such transformation is rooted in the power, person, and call of Jesus Christ, as well as awareness of God’s holiness, eager anticipation of future glory, separation from the world, and imitation of God. With a pastoral heart, Jonas then shows how biblical discipleship should transform every aspect of our lives from the inside out. You will not be disappointed by this excellent manual of Reformed, experiential, and practical Christian living!”

“The Christian faith, by its very nature, must be radical. Light has come into the world of darkness. Thus, Hensworth Jonas’s call in this book for God’s people to pursue thorough holiness in this sinful world must be taken seriously. He challenges us to a Christian life that is wonderfully illustrated by his own life and ministry in the Caribbean. But above all, this is a call to biblical Christianity. I commend this book to today’s church. Lest we totally lose our saltiness, let us heed this clarion call!”

“Hensworth Jonas intends to speak a word of correction, exhortation, and encouragement to contemporary Christianity. By God’s grace, he has achieved his purpose. A careful reading of this book will result in a spiritual recalibration in all the areas of the Christian life that truly matter. His contrast between the God of the Bible and the designer god of contemporary Christianity is remarkable. His call for straightforward obedience to the Word of God is a summons to true discipleship.”
