Discipler: An Interactive Guide to Intentional, Relational, Accountable Discipleship

All churches want to grow disciples with a real growing faith in Jesus Christ, not just members committed to a religious institution. But only a few churches seem to know how to make disciples. Finally, there is a resource that invites individuals and small groups into a process of discovering a maturing relationship as disciples of Jesus Christ. This interactive guide provides six months of engaging activities around six key dimensions of discipleship: worship, hospitality, opening to Jesus, obeying Jesus, service, and generosity.
