Personal Disciplemaking: A Step-by-step Guide for Leading a Christian From New Birth to Maturity

This book was written by Christopher B. Adsit and is published by Integrated Resources of Campus Crusade for Christ. The first eight chapters give practical help in what is involved in the discipling process. The next twelve chapters focus on initial follow-up of a new Christian -- the first twelve things you should do with a new believer in Christ. The final section helps the reader lay out a plan for a lifetime of discipling, using the Personal Disciplemaking Tool Kit. Howard Hendricks, the Chairman of the Center for Christian Leadership at Dallas Theological Seminary calls this book '...the most comprehensive, practical approach to disciplemaking I've seen to date.'
