Book Description
"Every believer in Jesus Christ deserves the opportunity of personal nurture and development." says LeRoy Eims. But all too often the opportunity isn't there. We neglect the young Christian in our whirl of programs, church services, and fellowship groups. And we neglect to raise up workers and leaders who can disciple young believers into mature and fruitful Christians. In simple, practical, and biblical terms, LeRoy Eims revives the lost art of disciple making. He explains: - How the early church discipled new Christians - How to meet the basic needs of a growing Christian - How to spot and train potential workers - How to develop mature, godly leaders "True growth takes time and tears and love and patience," Eims states. There is no instant maturity. This book examines the growth process in the life of a Christian and considers what nurture and guidance it takes to develop spiritually qualified workers in the church.

Book Description
Many churchgoers complain that their churches lack a coherent plan for discipleship and spiritual growth. In turn, many church leaders lament their lack of resources to build and manage effective programs to help people become fully devoted followers of Christ. In Transforming Discipleship Greg Ogden introduces his vision for discipleship, emphasizing that solutions will not be found in large-scale, finely-tuned, resource-heavy programs. Instead, Ogden recovers Jesus' method of accomplishing life change by investing in just a few people at a time. And he shows how discipleship can become a self-replicating process with ongoing impact from generation to generation. Biblical, practical and tremendously effective, Transforming Discipleship provides the insights and philosophy of ministry behind Ogden's earlier work, Discipleship Essentials. Together, these ground-breaking books have the potential to transform how your church transforms the lives of its people.

Book Description
Jesus teaches us to pray, “Give us this day, our daily bread.” But what does that really mean? Obviously, Jesus was not telling his disciples to simply pray for a morsel of literal bread every day, right? Isn’t that obvious? Bread in the Bible was a powerful symbol of God’s provision—the act of supplying with food, drink, or equipment for a journey. So when you pray, “Give us this day, our daily bread,” you are actually saying, “God I need you to supply me with everything I need to make it through this journey of life, and I need you to do it EVERY DAY.” Well, here it is: all contained in this workbook, coupled with the corresponding video presentation. Simply spend 20-30 minutes with God every day, and He will serve you His daily provision, and every area of your life will grow to a remarkable and exponential proportion. You will become very close to your Heavenly Father. You will feel Him and hear Him speak to you every day. What a wonderful unexplainable feeling. Here is the daily “Time with God” formula: P.R.S.P. P - Pray 3-5 minutes, R – Read 5-10 minutes, S – Study 10-15 minutes, P – Pray 3-5 minutes. You’ve prayed for years, “Give us this day our DAILY BREAD,” well now, here it is
