Synopsis

The Ways of the Alongsider is more than a Bible study or a program. This Bible-centered guide is a fresh approach to making disciples in “life2life” ways. The Ways of the Alongsider paints a new picture of disciple-making that moves this vital ministry out of the hands of ministry professionals to everyone who wants to participate in the great commission. The ten chapters are packed with Bible studies, creative assignments, and challenging reflection questions. You will learn a new pathway to disciple people in life2life ways. Written by veteran Navigators staff member Bill Mowry, The Ways of the Alongsider can be used with small groups, in a class setting, or in a one-to-one discipling relationship. Leader helps included.

From the Back Cover

Disciplemaking can be intimidating. You might think that someone who makes disciples has to be a teacher, a missionary, or someone who is seminary trained. Would it surprise you to know that disciplemaking is just a lifestyle in which you offer people love, comfort, and encouragement where they live, work, and play?

Despite our weaknesses and fears, Jesus invites us to participate in the Great Commission by helping people live for Christ in the here and now. All you have to do is live intentionally, love God, and journey alongside others life2life.

This ten-week Bible study with discussion questions spells out the how of making disciples through an alongsider approach to life. Discover and apply the practices of an alongsider, such as reading the Bible with others, asking questions, telling stories, encouraging application, and living on mission.

The Ways of the Alongsider can be used with small groups, in a class setting, or in a one-to-one discipling relationship.
