Firm Footsteps - Paperback
by Joseph T. LaBelle (Author)
The Christian journey is more than belief; it is also a call to put the message of Jesus into practice beyond the confines of church walls. Firm Footsteps offers seven traditional ways to animate faith and help believers on their path to becoming as Jesus in the world, no matter where or how firmly they may be connected to the broad Christian tradition. Each chapter of Firm Footsteps explores a timeless Christian practice rooted in Scripture and extending through the early Christian centuries into the present day, offering examples of ordinary persons whose lives of practical faith have contributed to the tradition. Each chapter then explores different ways that readers might cultivate the practice in their lives. Discussion questions and additional reading suggestions make this a useful book for both individual and group faith development reading. Firm Footsteps is an informative and worthwhile book for Christian disciples seeking to make visible the love of Christ and the gospel in the contemporary world.
