About this title

Synopsis

A GUIDEBOOK ON WHY AND HOW TO BE SAVED

Why do we need a spiritual “new birth”? How is it even possible? The concept sounded strange to Jesus’ audience. It can sound even stranger in our day, when many wonder why good people need it—and how bad people could still deserve it. Yet Jesus knew (and we know too) that we humans are deeply flawed. We need a new beginning. In New Birth, Strickland and Westbrook walk through our need for a new birth and the way to be born again, according to Jesus. What is the point of baptism? Why do we need to repent? This book guides readers to know what the Bible teaches about the why and how of being born again.

This book equips disciple makers to teach baptism from a biblical foundation.

— Brett Andrews, founding pastor of New Life Christian Church

This book establishes the necessary doctrinal foundation for a global movement of disciple making in a clear and solid way.

— Brandon Guindon, founding pastor of Real Life Texas, Houston, TX

This well-written book will help those thinking about becoming Christians and deepen the understanding of those who are already Christians.

— Dr. Sherry Pollard, Professor, Harding University
