1 Thessalonians: Disciples Making Disciples

By Jim Fredericks

Have you ever struggled to know key books of the Bible? How about major themes so you can see how relevant God's Love-Letter is for your life today?

Special Low Price now on 1 Thessalonians ss the fifth in an eight-part series, "DiscipleMaking Companion." The foundational theme connected with 1 Thessalonians is "multiply disciples in Christ."

Each of the eight "Companions" together cross pollinate the three great pathways of dynamic discipleship as they function as a "cultural engineer," cultivating a culture most conducive to healthy learning.

How?

This "DMC" series aligns with our creation-design and how the early church trained world-changers. Additionally, this series taps into cutting-edge learning and neurological studies that align with how God wired us, so we learn easier.

First, each guide us directly into Scripture through a 5-6-week study soaking in one book of the Bible, preferably in community. Yet with its simplicity, flexibility and bias towards doing it's more than a Bible study. The "Companions" series "flips" the usual learning process by focusing on doing Scripture first outside the group so we become disciples, apprentices of Jesus. Only doing God's Word reveals true knowledge (James 1:22). As you personally experience "fresh bread," it's like bringing your specialty to a group potluck.

Second, each "Companion" focuses on one key, foundational building block for our spiritual life. Together all eight "Companions" cross pollinate the three great pathways of discipleship by focusing on one theme at a time. The book of the Bible majors on the specific theme, and the short "Stretch Myself" articles support the specific theme, one layer after another.

After forty+ years in Scripture, I find myself returning over and again to keep my inner spiritual compass properly calibrated. Yet those who have struggled in the past to understand the Bible also experience new breakthrough. Each "Companion" provides a simple, adaptable structure with a measured pace and a variety of learning options. These work well for small groups or personal study.

Order one and try it yourself. Then invite other spiritually hungry friends onboard. My desire is "to teach you to fish and not merely to give you a fish."
