Deep Discipleship Journal: Christian Story, Belief, and Formation

The Deep Discipleship Journal includes content for 24 weeks of study, including pre-work exercises, foundational reading, and group sessions with helpful discussion questions. Also, each Journal contains a unique code that enables access to the three digital e-books that are a key part of the curriculum. Deep Discipleship is designed to be completed in a group, so a Group Starter Kit is required for access to the teaching videos.   Discipleship is best done in the context of the local church. But many churches who desire discipleship training have not been able to find an in-depth yet accessible option. This comprehensive training program will provide churches a 24-week discipleship course to meet this deep desire to equip and disciple their people into a greater love and knowledge of God. The video-based training includes a clear scope of discipleship and integrated curriculum which balances Christian story (Bible literacy), Christian belief (theological literacy), and Christian formation (spiritual disciplines).IMPORTANT: A Group Starter Kit is required for teaching video access.Session Topics: Introductory Week What Is Deep Discipleship?
