Disciple-To-Disciple Frederick Osborn

Preaching the gospel, teaching the Word of God, and making disciples are the highest callings in the world. We need to pray and ask God that we might be men and women who will not settle for anything less than the fullest blessing of the Lord in our life and in our ministry of making disciples. Disciple-to-Disciple is actually the third in an informal series of teachings on the Kingdom. The first in the series is This Gospel of the Kingdom. The book and study guide describe the foundational teachings of Jesus Christ concerning the kingdom of God. The second book and study guide in the series is called Kingdom Discipleship. Kingdom Discipleship defines what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ - including the six terms of discipleship that Jesus said all who would be His disciple must meet in order to be His disciple. Only disciples make disciples and in this part of the series on the Kingdom of God we will set aside some time to learn how Jesus, the Master Teacher taught His disciples. Disciple-to-Disciple is an in-depth study of how Jesus taught His disciples. If we understand how Jesus taught His disciples, then we can better understand how we must teach others. If we teach others to become faithful disciples of Jesus Christ then we will do more than teach them to be mere imitations of their Master but will teach them to be like Jesus in every way. When disciples make disciples all will be transformed by the Master. And so the process of making kingdom disciples - disciples who are like Jesus in character and conduct - will continue with each new generation of believers.
