This book addresses important topics of interest for all Christians: WHY is being a disciple of the Lord Jesus vital? WHAT does it take to be a true disciple of Christ? HOW to practically live as His disciple in today's chaotic modern world? n an age where the Christian faith is often reduced to a set of casual beliefs or comfortable traditions, Pradeep’s powerful work stands as a clarion call to something far more profound – authentic discipleship under the lordship of Jesus Christ. This book cuts through the spiritual complacency that characterizes much of modern Christianity and invites us back to the transformative reality of following Jesus as King, Lord, and Master. What strikes me most powerfully about this work is Pradeep’s unflinching commitment to biblical truth. He does not shy away from challenging our contemporary expressions of faith that have subtly eroded the reverence and honor due to Christ. With a desire for biblical precision and pastoral sensitivity, he reminds us that genuine discipleship flows not from mere verbal acknowledgment but from hearts that truly recognize Jesus as the “King of kings and Lord of lords.” Throughout these pages, Pradeep weaves together rich theological insights with practical spiritual wisdom. His exploration of Scripture – from Christ’s teachings on forgiveness to Paul’s exhortations on reconciliation – reveals a comprehensive vision of discipleship that encompasses every dimension of the Christian life. Rather than offering superficial solutions or comfortable platitudes, he directs us to the transformative power of faith that manifests itself in obedience. What makes this book particularly compelling is how Pradeep has embedded his own spiritual journey into his teaching. His honest reflections reveal a pilgrim who has walked this path of discipleship himself, encountering both the challenges and joys that come with surrendering fully to Christ’s lordship. This personal testimony gives his theological insights an authenticity and accessibility that purely academic treatments often lack. I find Pradeep’s critique of contemporary worship culture especially timely. His observations about the casual approach many Christians take toward God highlight a spiritual crisis at the heart of the church today. Yet this critique is never merely negative; it points consistently toward the joy and fulfillment that come from living as true disciples under Christ’s authority. The wisdom of Bonhoeffer echoes throughout these pages—the reciprocal relationship between faith and obedience forms the backbone of Pradeep’s vision for Christian discipleship—a vision that challenges us to move beyond cultural Christianity to embrace the narrow path that leads to life. For anyone hungering for a more authentic, transformative faith, this book offers both challenge and hope. It reminds us that the way of discipleship, while demanding, leads to the abundant life Christ promised. I commend this work to you, confident that its message will deepen your understanding of what it means to call Jesus “Lord” and strengthen your commitment to follow Him with your whole heart. May this book inspire a new generation of believers to discover the narrow gate and walk the path of true discipleship. Kyle Bostock Lead Pastor North Summit Church, Sandpoint, ID
