Course Overview

Created for both 1-to-1 coaching and for small groups

Travel Together

Growing as a disciple of Jesus happens best when we spend time learning together how to know Jesus. Though you can go through it alone, this course is set up to work best in a small group, or with someone who has been journeying with Jesus for longer who can be a bit of a coach.

Study

To explore and apply the Bible for yourself is a key part of this course. There is an introductory story to each step’s theme followed by 3 studies. You may want to work through these yourself or with a friend. These bring some of the key building blocks.

Discuss

At the end of each step are some group discussion questions. These start with an opportunity to chat through any questions from the studies. Then there’s some further questions and areas to explore more in a group setting, or with your coach.

Action Points

To ground each step is an action point. This is where the rubber hits the road. This is a challenge to apply what has been learnt during the step. Try to hold each other accountable, not only to work through the studies, but also in how you get on with the action points.

Replicable

This course will help you grow to become a disciple of Jesus. But it will also then help you become a coach, who can also begin walking others through this course. Remember discipleship is the process of becoming a disciple who then disciples others!
