The Group Starter Kit is an essential resource for leading a group through Deep Discipleship. In addition to giving you access to the teaching videos, it includes one Deep Discipleship trade book, five Deep Discipleship Journals, a digital Program Guide for the leader, a Quick Start Guide, and bonus materials. Additional Deep Discipleship Journals are available for purchase separately if you have a larger group.
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.
