Publisher's Synopsis
Jesus' own plan for discipleship was life on life, intentionally investing His life into the lives of a few who would go and do likewise. Eight Principles for Life on Life Leadership, Building Discipling Leaders, will help you follow His plan. It has been prepared for ministry and discipling leaders, based on the eight principles found in the classic book on discipleship, The Master Plan of Evangelism by Robert E. Coleman. The manual contains exercises, tools, reflections, and coaching encounters to help you and your peer, mentor, or coach develop and implement skills to improve your effectiveness. Instead of just reading about what you should be doing, you will be putting these principles into action as you move forward in your leadership. This manual is designed to be flipped through, marked up, talked over, and prayed about for a lifetime of discipleship and ministry. The manual can be used in a classroom setting keeping in mind that mastery of the principles comes through a lifetime commitment to discipling others. Take your time incorporating these skills. Use the manual as both a reference book and a workbook. You will find the manual beneficial to your leadership as you become a more effective reproducing leader, given the privilege, responsibility, and honor of obeying Jesus' great commission to "Go and make disciples of all nations..." " A beautiful work, a useful manual for building and discipling leaders! I am honored and humbled to see how they used The Master Plan of Evangelism. My prayer is that through this manual, an ever enlarging group of workers will go forth to harvest." Robert E. Coleman, Distinguished Senior Professor of Discipleship and Evangelism at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. You are encouraged to purchase The Master Plan of Evangelism by Robert E. Coleman to read together with this manual.
