How can you help others grow in their faith? What does a healthy discipling relationship look like? What do you do together? In order to answer these and other questions, Alice Fryling gathered a team of experienced disciplemakers. Together they give us practical help in such areas as overcoming our fears about discipling others, beginning a discipling relationship, how to be a friend, learning how people change, modeling the Christian life, using Scripture in disciplemaking, how to help a friend who hurts, and helping others share their faith. Many chapters include time-tested resources you can use in discipling relationships. A handbook for those who need help and encouragement in reaching out to others.

Discipleship not by method, but by lifestyle and action.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Disciplemakers' Handbook: Helping People Grow in Christ (Paperback)
As a young Christian, I struggled with sharing my faith with others. I always felt as though I did not have the knowledge to witness to others and let alone disciple a young Christian. As I grew in my faith I realized that God's desire is that of a willing heart through which He can work His miracles, in His timing, and for His glory.This book has been a refreshing assurance to me that God is in control. That He has called each person who has a personal relationship with Him to be His disciple and disciple His sheep. Disciple making requires those of us who are willing to see God work through us be used by our Saviour to accomplish His kingdom purpose. Disciple-makers Handbook is an awesome book which will challenge you to seek God and be about His Great Commission.

Solid, biblical, and practical,
This review is from: Disciplemakers' Handbook: Helping People Grow in Christ (Paperback)
Fryling is a staffer for Intervarsity, and speaks from long experience. This book covers the basics of friendship building, modeling, and instruction that go into building up disciples. Her focus is more on grounding believers than on leadership development.
