Quality introduction

This short but comprehensive overview begins with information on being a disciple of Christ personally, and then moves to cover evangelism and follow-up. Hendrichsen discusses the stages of the disciple making process, including selection, imparting basics, and then multiplying. Important themes in this book include developing conviction in others and appreciating the calling of God. The book isn't an advanced coverage of the elements involved, but an excellent and inspiring introduction. - Dennis McCallum, author Organic Disciplemaking: How to promote Christian leadership development through personal relationships, biblical discipleship, mentoring, and Christian community

You'll love this book on mentoring-discipling

The author has written a fresh, classic book in the field of discipling others, as did Jesus. It is biblically thorough, and practical. Among the 25 books I have in this field it rates as one of the top 4. I recommend it in my classes and to those I mentor-disciple. Dr. Waylon B. Moore

The Standard in Discipleship

This book covers it all. I use it as a training tool for both my high school and college ministries. It is a must for all who aspire to fulfill the Great Commission among young people.

The benchmark of books on Discipleship

26 years ago I started using the principles Walt develops in this classic. Of the scores of books I have read on mentoring, discipling, follow-up, I regard this one as the best.

This book is a must for every Christian's library!

This book should be in every Christian's library of resources. After discipling college students for about 15 years, this is the book I use most often to introduce students to discipleship. Henrichsen clearly demonstrates the ability of addressing many of the necessary aspects of discipleship. While this book includes great theology, it is written for those Christians who are desiring to "prove themselves do-ers of the Word, not mearly hear-ers." If you are interested in impacting eternity by investing in the lives of other Christians, then you need this book!
