The Christian Life often seems to involve swinging back and forth
between guilty passivity before God and exhausting activity for
God. Douglas Webster helps us get past such a frustrating and false
dilemma by showing how Christian discipleship brings together the
vitality of discipline under the peace of a continuing surrender to
the initiative of God. By exploring the rich images used throughout
the Bible, The Disciple of Surrender illuminates the heart and soul
of life in Christ. The down-to-earth images of altar and lamb,
thorn and trumpet, farmer's yoke and shepherd' staff powerfully
convey to us the patter of life poured out on us from God. Mundane
objects such as towel and basin, manna and donkey humbly serve as
God's object lessons to capture our prayerful imaginations and
propel us toward lives of courage, humility and flat-out dependence
on God. This book is for all those who are wary of simple
techniques or sure-fire methods for following Jesus but who are
seeking a deeper, richer and biblically sound source for their
spiritual nourishment. Douglas D. Webster (PhD., St. Michael's
College, Toronto School of Theology) is pastor of First
Presbyterian Church in San Diego, California. He also teaches
courses at Bethel Seminary, San Diego, and Tyndale Seminary in
Toronto, Canada. He is author of eight books, including A Passion
for Christ and Soulcraft.
