As Jesus stood before His eleven disciples in Matthew 28:18-20, He completed the work His Father prepared for Him. After sharing His life and teachings with these men for over three years, it was now time for them to continue the work and plan of God. They would be sent into the world to proclaim the Good News and make disciples of all nations. Living for the Kingdom was created to study Jesus' life and teachings in fulfillment of the Great Commission. This book is structured as a devotional study guide covering one hundred fifteen lessons that outline the cost of discipleship, characteristics of disciples, and the commands disciples are to follow. As students of Jesus' life and teachings, a secondary purpose will be learning and exercising sound biblical research and study habits.
