Discipleship Guides

Practical handouts for various activities to help grow disciples:

• One-2-one Discipleship and Spiritual Partners: guides for how to start discipling relationships, practical tools for your first and subsequent meetings (One-2-one discipleship is where a more mature Christian helps a newer Christian develop, while Spiritual Partners are people of similar spiritual maturity wanting to help each other grow). Four pages long, designed to print on a single A3 page, double-sided and folded.
• Outreach accountability: a simple but very effective approach to increasing the outreach temperature of your corps, adding two simple questions to every meeting.
