It is only when pressure comes that we discover what truly holds us steady.
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. - Colossians 2:6-7 NKJV
We live in a world that keeps moving the goalposts. Truth is redefined. Morality is reshaped. Faith is treated as optional and obedience as extreme.
But the church is not built on shifting sand. It is built on Christ.
Rooted and Built Up in Christ: Walking in Him for a Lifetime (Volume 1) began in the pulpit - 32 sermons preached week by week to a local congregation asking one question: Are we truly rooted and built up in Christ?
Now shaped into a book for personal study, family devotions, and Bible classes, Volume 1 traces Paul's blueprint for spiritual maturity:
PART ONE: ROOTED - Laying the Foundation
Why the Word Must Remain Central, The Gospel That Breaks Down Every Wall, Counting the Cost of Discipleship
PART TWO: THE GOD WHO ROOTS US - Knowing Who Holds Us
Living With Eternity in View, The Holiness of God, The Faithfulness of God, The Patience and Longsuffering of God, The Love of God
PART THREE: CHRIST OUR ROOT - The One We Are Rooted In
Jesus the Son of God, Jesus the Servant King, Jesus Our Example, Jesus Our Mediator, The Resurrection of Jesus
PART FOUR: BUILT UP - How We Respond
The Problem of Sin, Grace That Teaches Us, Faith That Obeys, Obedience in Baptism, Crucified With Christ
PART FIVE: ESTABLISHED & ABOUNDING - How We Endure
Rooted in the Darkness, Walking in the Light, Bearing the Fruit of the Spirit, The Church Christ Built, When Men Neglect Responsibility Before God, Shepherds After God's Own Heart, Standing Firm, Trusting God in the Storm, When Obedience Is Costly, Strength in Weakness, Guarding the Heart, Setting the Mind on Things Above, Taking Every Thought Captive
Each chapter includes Dig Deeper discussion questions and a Rooted Practice to help you walk it out Monday through Saturday.
This is not a book about moving beyond Christ. It is a book about growing deeper into Him.
Because the root determines the fruit.
And the foundation determines the future.
Perfect for: personal spiritual growth, new Christians, adult Bible classes, small groups, and anyone tired of shallow faith that wilts under pressure.
DON'T Forget to get the Companion Workbook to go along with the book. The Companion Workbook is designed to be used alongside Rooted and Built Up in Christ: Walking in Him for a Lifetime - taking you deeper from reading to walking.More than a study guide, this workbook helps you abide, build, and abound for a lifetime.
Inside you'll find for each of the 31 chapters:
- Condensed Teaching - Core truth from the book in one page
- 12 Thoughtful Questions - Reflect, examine, and apply
- Dedicated Writing Space - Journal, pray, and process
- Family Discussion Prompts - Grow together at home
- A Rooted Practice - A simple step to walk it out that week
Perfect for:
Personal devotions, small groups, Sunday school, men's and women's studies, and family discipleship.
Whether you are new in Christ or have walked with Him for decades, this workbook will help you sink your roots deeper into Christ, be built up on the firm foundation of His Word and walk in Him every day.
