The Journey of Transformation
Dear Partners in Ministry,
Praise God! By His grace, my new book The Journey of Transformation is available on Amazon.
Anybody can order it using this link: https://amzn.to/3nB4aR7.
This book
- Is an excellent discipleship tool for small groups with reflection questions at the end of each chapter
- Reveals the awesomeness of God’s grace and enhances Christians’ understanding of spiritual transformation
- Is a handy compass to help followers of Christ navigate the map of spiritual transformation
- Encourages Jesus’ followers to identify their own flesh patterns and invites them to bring it to the cross
- Reinforces the truth that genuine faith is obedience in action
Everything we are called to do is by God’s grace, in Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, I pray that the concepts included in this book will be understood correctly in the light of God’s grace. When these truths begin to resonate in the readers' hearts, faith will be stirred up. If believers act upon it, the transformation will occur.
Dear reader, as you flip through the pages of this book, I hope that the Holy Spirit will bring to your attention precisely what you need to hear at that very moment. I hope many of you, regardless of the stage of spiritual growth, will find the spiritual food necessary for your inner person.
Would I succeed in my desires and wishes? I don’t know; only time would tell. For me, it is essential to walk guided by the Holy Spirit in obedience to the Lord.
I enjoyed writing every word, phrase, paragraph, and chapter. But I confess that some of the chapters challenged me a great deal. Brothers and sisters, I am on the same journey as you. We are in this together. So, my wish is that you will somehow feel my heart speaking to you from the pages of this book. Have an incredible spiritual journey!
My God bless you, my beloved

The Great Commission
Dear friends and partners
It is my great honor to bring to your attention the most important theme of the New Testament: The Great Commission. It challenges us to think of radical discipleship and spiritual transformation.

The Great Commission: A Closer Look at Why Discipleship Cannot be Ignored is an excellent discipleship tool for small groups, including discussion questions and lesson plans.
- “Discipleship in the New Testament’s vehicle for the progressive sanctification in the lives of born-again believers. This may shock some of you, but a born-again believer does not automatically become a disciple of Christ. It is important to understand that disciples are made, not born. After people are born again, they belong to God’s family, but they are not disciples yet. After a while, believers are presented with the invitation to embrace the cross (see Matthew 10:38 39, Luke 9:23 24). For some people, this happens shortly after they are born again. For others, the call to discipleship may take place many years down the road. It all depends on each individual’s intentional response to the Holy Spirit.
- The calling to salvation is addressed to sinners. The calling to discipleship is addressed to saints. Salvation is a gift—it costs people nothing (cf. Ephesians 2:8 9). Discipleship requires the cross—it costs Christians everything (cf. Luke 9:23 24). Salvation opens the door to eternal life. Discipleship opens the door to heavenly rewards (cf. 1 Corinthians 3:11 15, Daniel 12:3). I hope you can see the difference.”[1]
- Discipleship is the greatest need of the Church. Churches need to refocus their attention on mature disciples, not just better programs. The truth is that only radical obedient discipleship is leading believers to maturity.
- George Barna underlines the problem of the contemporary Church. He wrote: “Discipleship is not a program. It is not a ministry. It is a life-long commitment to a lifestyle.”[2]
Christ will soon return, and He expects to find many mature disciples—a people transformed into His likeness. Until then, by God’s grace, let’s make disciples and equip them for the Kingdom of God.
With love in His service,
Valy Vaduva
