Helpful to the New Believer

Our Church Youth Group (primarily a group that are comprised of ESL students) is going through the assurances during Sunday School and I find it very helpful to them in growing and setting a good foundation in Christ. It is short and basic enough that the youth group can read and understand the material fairly easily within a 30-45 minute time frame. The prep time is not overwhelming and actually has been very encouraging for me as well. I highly recommend this to a youth group or a group of recent believers longing to understand the foundations and assurances of the Christian Faith.

Perfect for new Christians

Our church uses this book in our beginning discipleship class. It is EXCELLENT.

THE classic help for new Christians

Growing in Christ brings together four separate Navpress works: the five-part Lessons on Assurance, its companion scripture memory pack, the eight-part Lessons on Christian Living, and its companion memory pack.Lessons on Assurance is probably the most-tested discipleship tool ever published. It has been around in several forms since the 40s, and has been virtually unchanged since the mid-70s. I myself was nurtured by it when I came to the Lord in 1974. It has served as a solid foundation for virtually everything I've learned since. And I've used it to help equip scores of people since then.Each of the five assurances covered builds on the previous one: Salvation, Prayer, Victory, Confession, Guidance. Together, according to the authors, they help the believer defeat the devil when he attacks.The lessons are constructed by taking apart a key verse, phrase by phrase, and taking the disciple to other scripture passages for deeper understanding and application.While Lessons on Christian Living (the second part of this book) is useful, I generally make it more of an elective as I disciple others. Lessons on Assurance, however, is as essential now as it was when I discovered it over 25 years ago.There is no better resource anywhere for equipping young Christians to live the Christ life.

An Excellent Book for New and Growing Christians

This book is to be used to assist in learning the Bible (KJV, NIV, NASB, & RSV). Inside is a thirteen-week course that takes you through lessons on assurance and on Christian living. In each lesson you will memorize a Bible verse, study other related passages, and answer simple questions about what you have read. This book also contains verse cards that you can carry with you.
