The Discipleship Course: Discovering what it means to follow Jesus

The Discipleship Course booklet is designed for those who have made a commitment to Jesus Christ and are now Christians.  It is an introduction to the Christian faith, and was written to give new Christians an understanding of their new identity, their history, their scriptures, and their future.
