About the author

Walk the Walk is the crowning glory on the career of a successful church leader with a vision.

Pastor Calvin M. Hooper has been in the ministry for almost twenty years, serving in many capacities. He and his wife, Valerie, spent many years serving in various levels of leadership in one of the world's largest pentecostal denominations.

In the summer of 2003, he felt the call of God to establish a non-denominational church called The Household of Faith Christian Fellowship. The Household of Faith started with just Hooper and his family in their living room.

Since then, pastor Hooper's ministry has been exceptionally blessed. The church grew to regular services in a library, then in a rented building for two years and now they have their own permanent church in Round Rock, Texas.

The Household of Faith is a praying church that believes the power of the Holy Spirit is at work in the life of the believer. The church believes in serving the needs of the community so that Christ is glorified. The Household of Faith is a vibrant, dynamic growing body serving all communities and there are plans to establish other churches.

Greater things are ahead and many lives will be impacted as the church continues to follow the vision God gave to pastor Hooper.

"God our Saviour wants everyone to be saved and to know the whole truth."

1 Timothy 2:3-4

God's loving engagement with his children begins in paradise in the Garden of Eden. At the end of the world Jesus will take his children with him to paradise in the new Garden of Eden.

Walk the Walk - Eight Essentials to Living the Christian Life

Eden Christian Media begins with the book Walk the Walk - Eight Essentials to Living the Christian Life by Calvin M. Hooper. It is a practical guide to the fulfillment of Christ's calling to discipleship. Hooper discusses living the Christian life according to the acronym DISCIPLE - discipline, involvement, Bible study, commitment, integrity, prayer, loving others and endurance.

This book of 120 pages is written in clear, lucid and understandable language. Hooper from start to finish quotes various passages from the Bible to discuss his essentials for living the Christian life. His explanations are logical and he analyses Biblical texts in a theologically sound manner.

Walk the Walk is ideal for Christians who want to know what Jesus expects from his disciples. It is a valuable guide to discipleship that can be used for Bible study by groups. It is also very suitable for the youth ministry, as a course in discipleship and for workshops. A list of questions is published at the end of each chapter for discussion and revision.

People who want to know more about the Christian faith or people that were converted recently can use Walk the Walk as a vital introduction to practical Christianity.
