Grow: Studies for disciples

Description

You will find this app full of foundational studies that can be used as a small group resource or a structure for a Missional Community gathering.

If you’ve ever asked:

How can I help someone who’s just come to Christ?

OR

How do I disciple people who want to grow in their faith?

Then this app is for you.

These studies cover the 3 types of relationships that Jesus considered important:

Up – Relationship with God
In – Relationship with self and other disciples
Out – Relationship with not-yet-disciples

Each study follows the format:

Scripture – Story – Shape – So What?

Scripture: We always start by looking at scripture because it is God’s word to us about following Christ.

Stories: We unpack and illustrate the scriptural studies to help bring deeper knowledge and understanding.

Shapes: We share simple diagrams and illustrations that make the study memorable and easily reproducible for passing on to others.

So What?: We help you incorporate the studies and practices into life, through changed thinking and practice.

In addition, there is a Grow Further section to each study with signposts to other resources, for those who wish to look deeper into each topic.
