This discipleship training manual is designed to help you grow in your relationship with God and equip you to make disciples. It is based on Jesus' model of first calling the twelve to follow him, then training them, and finally sending them out to continue his mission. Discipleship is a lifelong journey of learning to be more like Christ. This manual covers core practices like reading the Bible, prayer, fellowship, worship, evangelism, and service. You will learn how to build strong spiritual disciplines to nourish your soul. It also addresses challenges we face as disciples such as trials, spiritual warfare, busyness, and burnout. Each chapter ends with discussion and practical action steps to help you apply the teachings. My goal is to give you foundational biblical principles and personal practices that will transform you into Christ's image. In turn, you will be empowered to disciple others. Studying this material together in a small group will enrich your learning experience. My prayer is that God will use these simple teachings to help you grow as a fruitful disciple of Jesus. May you come to know Jesus more intimately and make him known more passionately.

We grow in Christ as we seek him together. Jesus' own pattern of disciple-making was to be intimately involved with others. This expanded 25-session workbook by Greg Ogden, perfect for small groups or individuals, helps us influence others as Jesus did—by investing in a few. Working through it will deepen your knowledge of essential Christian teaching and strengthen your faith.

Question: What is the God-given purpose of the local church? Answer: Relational discipleship. DiscipleShift walks you through five key "shifts" that churches must make to refocus on the fundamental biblical mission of discipleship. These intentional changes will attract the world and empower your church members to be salt and light in their communities. Over the last thirty years, many influential church leaders and church planters in America have adopted various models for reaching unchurched people. While many of these approaches have merit, something is still missing, something even more fundamental to the mission of the church: discipleship. Making disciples—helping people to trust and follow Jesus—is the church's God-given mandate. Devoted disciples attract people outside the church because of the change others see in their Christ-like lives. And discipleship empowers Christians to be more like Christ as they intentionally develop relationships with non-believers. Through biblical and professional insights, Jim Putman and Bobby Harrington discuss the transformational effectiveness of making disciples and just how to do so, in practical terms. You’ll learn: The specific roles of a disciple-making pastor. The components of person-to-person discipleship. How each ministry in your church leads to discipleship. How to implement discipleship in your church. Disciple-making leaders will not produce perfect churches, but they will create effective churches.

First Printed in 2011 2015 edition. Nehemiah 8:1-19; Psalm 91:1 This little book is a collection of messages on Discipleship Training in Holy Ghost School recorded at Right hand of the LORD Fellowship, Egbe- Lagos, Nigeria. It happened that I was discipled by two ministers of God: Rev. Joses Hizkiah of Unfailing Life Ministries and Prophet Lambert Eze Okafor of LaFAMCALL (End-Time) Ministries. After this, I forgot about the training and continued in my former method of ministration as I could not pick up the teaching immediately. It was at this juncture of stalemate or deadlock that the LORD quickened me one day to start on the teaching on Holy Ghost Discipleship by faith that the inspiration came to start putting down in writing as the LORD started to help me along. After a considerable number of lessons, the directive came from the LORD to compile the messages into a leaflet for discipling members of the fellowship
