The “Disciple Investing” Life: Helping Others Grow in Their Relationship with Christ

If you are involved in the local church or any ministry that wants to create an ethos of Christian growth and education, or disciple investing, Christ Changing Lives: Digging Deeper into the Practice of Disciple Investing, is a book that will assist you in thinking through a philosophy of how to invest in followers of Christ. Following up on the introductory material of its earlier companion book, The "Disciple Investing" Life, Christ Changing Lives will take the reader into a thoughtful treatment of systems of discipleship, the art of diagnosis, situations one might encounter in the discipling process, and how to create balanced disciples. The book will also conclude by providing some helpful ideas about how to disciple others in a local church or campus ministry setting. Both church and ministry leaders, as well as those seriously interested in the task of disciple investing, should profit from the practical ideas contained in this insightful publication.

Christ Changing Lives: Digging Deeper into the Practice of Disciple Investing

When we think of the ministry of discipleship (or what I call "disciple investing"), we often conclude that the focus of discipleship involves one individual intentionally helping only one other individual (often called "one-to-one" ministry). We think we have to choose one person to whom we must give our attention. However, as we observe the Apostle Paul's ministry, the reality is that he devotes time and effort with all sorts of people, both individuals and groups, people whom he meets in various contexts. The Apostle Paul willingly and actively invests in multiple relationships, as seemingly he is open to most anyone the Lord sends his way. And Paul goes out of his way both to lead others to Christ, as well as to deepen believers in their walks with Christ. The Disciple Investing Apostle: Paul's Ministry of Relationships provides an overview of the many and varied relationships that the Apostle Paul develops as he helps others grow in Christ. In the book, you will meet the people Paul meets and you also will watch him build meaningful disciple investing relationships with these friends. And in doing so, you may learn some lessons for your personal ministry with others as well.

The Disciple Investing Apostle: Paul’s Ministry of Relationships

The "Changed Lives Changing Lives" series contains three books that cover the ministry of Christian "disciple investing." As a series, the books address the following aspects of pouring into followers and disciples of Jesus: methodology (The "Disciple Investing" Life), philosophy (Christ Changing Lives) and relational modeling (The "Disciple Investing" Apostle). Whether you are a novice in ministering to others, a seasoned veteran in Christian education, or looking for some inspiration to gain motivation for sharing your life on behalf of others, the "Changed Lives Changing Lives" series is here to help. The author's hope is that the reader will benefit from each book in the series, and that the kingdom of Christ will benefit from the fruit of the changed lives of impacted "disciple investors."
