A Movement, Not an Institution

Produktbeschreibung

Why another study about the life of Christ? Maybe you are as taken back by this question as I when it came up during my research. After being confronted by this inquiry, I had to spend quality time in prayer and thought. I concluded I could not answer the question. Instead, I turned to the Holy Spirit for guidance. The Spirit's assignment was turning a recently released 550-page project into the space of around 250-pages including over 450 discussion questions. This study and its companion studies, Irreconcilable Differences, the birth, and death of everything through the eyes of science, faith, and religion and Are You the "I" in UNITY?, inform-invite-involve, compose a three-book series titled, The Great Commission for the 21st Century Congregation. This study, The Story of Faith, a movement, not an institution, centers roughly on thirty-three years of Christ's life on the Earth and then about seventy-seven years of building a faith that changed not just the world but, all time before and after this one-hundred and ten-year period. Information about the companion studies can be found by visiting www.bobgshupe.com. The information you will discuss and debate within this study will introduce you to more than just Christ and other major characters of the Bible you have studied in specialized discussions. You will also meet the minor participants who, in their own way, contributed as much or more in a short period of time as those characters we have heard about most of our lives. Why did I write this study? I was led to do so. In a time of infinite history and endless future events it is possible the church feels it has outgrown Christ. Time for a personal faith checkup. Welcome to the story.

Autorenporträt

Mr. Shupe is very involved in his church and is a past Moderator of the Nashville Presbytery of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. He is an active elder at his church and past Minister of Music, serving in that position for forty-eight years. He attended Free Will Baptist Bible College and then attended and graduated from Belmont University in 1973. He is the father of two, grandfather of two, and the husband of Valerie Shupe for the past fifty-two years.Mr. Shupe, as a teenager, felt called to the Christian mission field which led him to the higher education he pursued. After serving for a year and a half at the First Baptist Church in Portland, Tennessee as Minister of Music and Youth, he felt a different call. After a two-and-a-half-year search, he discovered the insurance industry. This industry allowed him to provide for his family and fund and provide time for several mission projects throughout the remainder of his forty-three-year career. Some of those were working for eight years on a Sudanese Church project for refugees in the U.S.; music programs in Colombia, South America; and raising funds for various other mission projects while directing music for many years in a Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Other music projects included co-writing a historic musical about the birth of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in 1810 during the Second Great Awakening in the Cumberland Valley. The research for this Great Awakening project and his tenure teaching a Bible Discussion Group for several years gave birth to the idea for this series entitled, The Great Commission for 21st Century Congregations based on his earlier resource book entitled, Between Two Breaths, the seasons of creation. This is the third book from that study series.
