I needed this book for bible church school, but it turned out to be one of the best books I have read so far this year. I would recommend this book to any one who wants a closer walk with God.

I liked the first part of the book so far. We are using this for our men's small group. Great discussion. I don't agree with some of the mandates on evangelism that are assumed all biblical and that if we are not doing evangelism like outlined in the book, then we can't do discipleship.

One of the greatest books I have read on the subject of discipleship. It is written in a very easy to understand fashion and tells you how to apply the Great Commission in this day and age.
