Radical Disciples – A Remnant Revolution

Transformed lives through the finished works of Christ on the Cross

The Book “Entering God’s Rest: Transformed Lives Through the Finished Works of Christ on the Cross” was written by Dr. Russell Welch

“The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.” – C.S. Lewis

As the dawn breaks and the struggles of daily life loom large, it is easy for the faithful to forget the depth of God’s promises and the completion of His works through Jesus Christ. This book is an invitation to rediscover the transformative power of those promises and the richness of living in the fullness of God’s rest, as secured through the victory of Christ on the cross. It is written for those who yearn to experience a deeper, more meaningful connection with their creator, beyond the routine of religious obligations.

Drawing from a reservoir of biblical teachings, pastoral experiences, and real-life testimonies, this book offers both mind and heart an expedition into the profound simplicity of what it means to live by faith in the finished works of Christ. I have embarked on this writing journey moved by the numerous encounters with individuals whose spiritual walk mirrored the deserts I once wandered—a landscape of rituals devoid of power, and knowledge without transformation.

I have seen firsthand the transformation that unfolds when a believer grasps the full implication of Christ’s sacrifice—when what was known is made real, and faith moves from the mind to the marrow. Students in my discipleship programs, people I’ve ministered to in jails, nursing homes, and street corners all share a common thread; a thirst for something more, something deeper, something transformative. This echoed my past struggles and how, through grace, I discovered the inexhaustible power vested in the Gospel.

This narrative is not without acknowledgments to the mighty cloud of witnesses whose teachings and lives have inspired the content within these pages. The words of renowned theologians, the enduring faith of the persecuted church, and the unwavering spirit of my spiritual forebears have been a compass. I owe immense gratitude to my family, my congregation at Highway to Heaven Church, and the thousands of disciples from the Rushing Mighty Wind School of Ministry, whose journeys of faith have enriched this manuscript in uncountable ways.

Thank you for making the choice to embark on this journey through these pages. You are among those who seek not just to know of God but to know God—in the most intimate, transformative way. Whether you consider yourself a diligent seeker, a weary pilgrim, or a curious onlooker, this book is for you if your heart longs for rest, purpose, and a touch from the eternal.

By the conclusion of this manuscript, you will not only understand but cherish the reality of Christ’s victory as your very own. You will find strategies and insights necessary to navigate life’s battles, armored in the assurance of His finished works. More than concepts, you will discover testimonies of lives radically changed, minds renewed, and spirits rejuvenated—all testimony to the grace that calls us to enter and dwell in God’s rest.

Thank you for inviting me into your quest for depth, for truth, for rest. The pages that follow are much more than ink on paper; they are an entrance into the transformative presence of God. I invite you to journey with an open heart and an expectant faith, ready to be surprised by the boundless grace and unfailing love of our God.

Let us journey forth with the assurance that the best is not behind us, but that in Christ, it perpetually lies before us. Welcome to the discovery of your life’s greatest adventure—the transformative journey into the rest of God.
