Following the practice of the ancient disciplines of biblical reflection and prayer with quotes from the Christian tradition throughout the ages, \u003cem\u003ePilgrim\u003c\/em\u003e assumes little or no knowledge of the Christian faith. Individuals or small groups on the journey of discipleship in the Episcopal tradition can use \u003cem\u003ePilgrim\u003c\/em\u003e at any point. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e There are many different aspects to helping people learn about the Christian faith. We have taken as our starting point Jesus' summary of the commandments. We are called to offer our lives to God through loving God with all our mind, soul, strength, and heart, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Learning about Christian faith and growing in Christian faith is about more than what we believe. It's also about the ways in which we pray and develop our relationship with God, about the way we live our lives and about living in God's vision for the Church and for the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Course 3. \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Commandments: Following Jesus\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e is about the way we behave as well as what we believe. So how should Christians behave and how should we live? This part of \u003cem\u003ePilgrim\u003c\/em\u003e explores that question through one of the core texts of the Christian faith: the Commandments. We look in Session 1 at the two commandments Jesus uses to summarize the whole of the Old Testament law: the call to love God and to love our neighbor as ourselves. In Sessions 2-6, we explore the Ten Commandments themselves.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 72\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2 x 8.3 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 10, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42174375460999,"sku":"9780898699425","price":22.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/7bf82d3755177a8be690036506829478.webp?v=1733373941","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/pilgrim-the-commandments-a-course-for-the-christian-journey-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
