The Bible teaches that the goal of the Christian life is to become like Jesus—for our own personal growth and for the sake of others. Every believer needs to ask three big questions: What do I believe? What should I do? And who am I becoming?
In Think, Act, Be Like Jesus, bestselling author and pastor Randy Frazee helps readers grasp the vision of the Christian life and get started on the journey of discipleship. After unfolding the revolutionary dream of Jesus and showing how our lives fit into the big picture of what God is doing in the world, Frazee walks readers through thirty short chapters exploring the ten core beliefs, ten core practices, and ten core virtues that help disciples to think, act, and be more like Jesus Christ.
This compelling new book can be used in conjunction with the 30-week all-church Believe campaign or read separately as an individual study. Either way, readers will deepen their understanding of what it means to not just know the Story of God, but to live it.

Overall Rating
It was so honest and raw in the introduction with the "confession of disbelief" that I knew this was one of those potentially life changing books.
As children we believe what we are taught and take it at face value. As we grow into teenagers and adults, the doubt begins to creep in. I admit to having questions of my own about heaven and hell. It's such a hard thing to wrap your brain around.
Frazee openly shares his doubts that led him to write this book. I really liked the way that it was broken down in three sections with ten chapters each: the ten core beliefs, ten core practices and ten core virtues. It goes in an order that makes sense. Within the first, you can't do the last.
Frazee's writing grabbed my attention from page one. I felt particularly connected to it as a Pastors daughter, reading a book written by a Pastor. You don't usually see such a personally written book from a Pastor which is what makes it real and authentic.
Think, Act, Believe Like Jesus is a great read if you have ever experienced any doubt in your faith, which basically includes all Christians. (Posted on 2/7/2015)
