About this title

Synopsis

Most disciplemaking strategies employ a "materials-oriented" approach - "If you take the disciple through this set of materials, they will be discipled." Personal Disciplemaking takes a "needs-oriented" approach. That is, let'd first assess where the needs are in this growing Christian, discern what God is doing in his or her life, and partner with HIM in the process. The first eight chapters give practical, general help in what is involved in the discipling process. The next twelve chapters focus on initial follow-up of a new Christian - the first twelve things you should do with a new believer in Christ. The final section helps the reader lay out a plan for a lifetime of discipling, using the Personal Disciplemaking Tool Kit. The approach can be used in a one-to-one mentoring relationship, or as a curriculum for small group discipling.

About the Author

Rev. Christopher B. Adsit is the founder and Executive Director of Disciplemakers International, a ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ. Chris came to Christ in 1970 and was discipled for four years through the ministry of The Navigators at Colorado State University. In 1974, a year after graduation, he joined Athletes In Action Track Team and achieved All-American status in the decathlon. After being trained by two organizations deeply committed to disciplemaking, he then launched into a ten-year project to forge what he'd learned into a need-oriented, assessment-driven, transferable method of disciplemaking that is both intuitive and systematic in its approach. He is ordained by the Evangelical Church Alliance and lives in Eugene, Oregon, with his wife Rahnella and their four children.
