Life in 5D - by Charlie Self & Johan Mostert & Jamé Bolds (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Welcome to the discipleship revolution!

Discover how you can worship and enjoy God through every aspect of your life. Life in 5D: A New Vision of Discipleship shows you how, in each of these 5 Dimensions:

D1: Spiritual Formation (loving God)

D2: Personal Wholeness (emotional health)

D3: Healthy Relationships (loving our neighbor)

D4: Vocational Clarity (living with a calling and purpose)

D5: Economics and Work (daily life and labor).

Scrap the stifling idea that being Jesus' apprentice is locked into church activities: They are important, but they aim to help you live out the fullness of life in Christ outside the church walls, in every dimension of daily life. Discover how to walk with God in your emotions, friendships and neighbor relations, in your work and down time, and in your use of all resources God has given you . . . to enjoy and use for his credit and for the good everyone your life touches. Discover life in the Spirit is a many-splendored thing!

Fueling this new book is the unique Discipleship Dynamics Assessment that offers you a profile of your current walk with the Lord and encouragement to continue growing. The Assessment is found here: www.discipleshipdynamics.com.

Review Quotes

What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? At one level, the answer is simple-learn to obey everything Jesus commanded and modeled, relying on the Holy Spirit. And yet, we sometimes sense we have lost our way, with too much attention on programs and not enough attention on pursuing outcomes that align with the way of Jesus. Life in 5-D offers a much-needed correction, calling us back to a clear vision of the goal. . . .

Matt Rusten

Executive Director, Made to Flourish

The ekklesia has needed tools like this for centuries. Now it's here-for such a time as this, when the twenty-first century global Church is yearning to fulfill the Great Commission and realize the End Game (Matt 28:18-20; 24:14).

Life in 5-D is a look at discipleship that focuses on where we spend most of our productive week-what we do Monday through Friday. This integration of faith and work is often missing in our reflection about our walk and faith. So, this book not only causes us to reflect on what goes into

discipleship but what that looks like in settings we usually do not think about when thinking about our spiritual growth and maturity before God.

Jamé Bolds and his co-authors show us . . . how disciples are made at work and not necessarily at church. The chapter on faith, work, and economics is gold.

Western Christianity is facing a crisis of authentic benchmarks. Our spiritual compass spins like fan blades as true north is constantly being redefined by new trends and temporary movements. Life in 5-D is an invitation to stop the madness and do a hard reset of biblical standards that

restore life, health, and balance.

Gene Roncone

Superintendent, Rocky Mountain Ministry Network, The Assemblies of God

[T]here is no such thing as secular employment for the believer. The question is not, 'Are you in ministry?' The question is, 'Who pays you to do ministry?' For some, it is the church. For most, it is the marketplace. Unfortunately, we spend a majority of our time in discipleship preparing people for their hour of serving in the church rather than discipling them on how to use their gift five days a week in all callings to the marketplace. Learning how to see how faith, work, and economics as a starting place for discipleship is a gift that Jamé Bolds and his co-authors are giving to the church. I highly recommend this book. . . .

Jamé Bolds' chapters on faith, work, and economics are gold. The call of Christ to make disciples is made a reality not only within the church walls but in the workplace! These truly golden insights can help build the Church.
