This Following Jesus course will help you walk through the 7 essentials to Following Jesus!
Passport –
A believer’s guide to Kingdom living
The aim of this book is to make disciples of Jesus Christ – to help people follow Jesus passionately.
Passport consists of ten weeks worth of daily devotions (five “days” for each week). The intention is that the new believer meets with a mentor from the church once a week to talk over the material. Discipleship is not gained from a book but from an apprenticeship relationship.
The book brings together two followers of Jesus in order that Christ might be formed in them.
The writing of this book came out of a need for a basic new believers’ course that would fit our particular Vineyard congregation.
Contact us to get a copy of this book.
