Growing Disciples

Helping Christian Believers, Leaders, and Churches Obey the Final Command

One Free Tool for New Christians

January 13, 2014 By Claude King

Provide new Christians with a daily devotional guide for their first week in following Jesus Christ.

In 2011 I designed a booklet so a church could give it to people making a decision for Christ with encouragement to “start today.” I built in a coaching process so new believers can develop and discuss questions with a more mature believer. Ideally they immediately will move into a connection with an ongoing Bible study group and continue growing as a disciple.

Day 1: Understanding this New Life
Day 2: Spend Time with God Daily
Day 3: Learn about God, His Will & Ways
Day 4: Live in Victory
Day 5: Connect with the Body
Day 6: Tell Your Story
Day 7: Plan and Take Next Steps

FREE Andrew Murray Book: The State of the Church

December 19, 2013 By Claude King

Andrew Murray published The State of the Church following the 1910 World Missionary Conference in Edinburgh, Scotland. His description of the low spiritual condition of the church seems very contemporary with the conditions today. His recommendations of biblical remedies are just as needed today. Download a free copy of the text or choose the one in which I’ve highlighted “quotable quotes”:

Using Curriculum in 1-to-1 and Small Group Discipleship

July 10, 2012 By Claude King

Godly men and women have learned truths from God’s Word tested by a lifetime of following the Lord that can be of great benefit to others who are just starting the journey. Sometimes “curriculum” can be a content download rather than an interactive training experience. In this video clip I describe the way I’ve helped design curriculum resources that allow learners to experience these godly men and women in a 1-to-1 mentoring environment. Then these prepared learners can get together with a live mentor or small group to process what he or she is learning and seek help or prayer for the places of struggle.

Love that Obeys

November 25, 2010 By Claude King

Abide in Christ 6: Love from Claude V King on Vimeo.

Abiding in Christ’s love allows you to be a channel through which His love flows to impact others. According to Oscar Thompson: "Love is meeting needs." God gives us the body of Christ to practice our deep sacrificial love. Then God asks us to love a lost world like that. This video clip is intended to be supplementary to a study of "Growing Disciples: Abide in Christ" by Andrew Murray and Bo Stevens.

Unhurried Time with God

November 22, 2010 By Claude King

Abide in Christ 5: Time from Claude V King on Vimeo.

God works in your life to cultivate an intimate and personal love relationship with you as you spend time with God in His Word and through prayer. An abiding relationship with Christ is not built in brief haphazard encounters. Build unhurried and unhindered time with God into your schedule. This video clip is intended to be supplementary to a study of "Growing Disciples: Abide in Christ" by Andrew Murray and Bo Stevens.

Much Lasting Fruit!

November 18, 2010 By Claude King

Abide in Christ 4: Fruit from Claude V King on Vimeo.

As you abide in Christ, He works to produce fruit, more fruit, much fruit, and even much lasting fruit for the Father’s glory. This fruit includes the fruit His Holy Spirit manifests in your life: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. But He also works through your testimony to produce gospel fruit as people are drawn to Christ through the work of the heavenly Father. This video clip is intended to be supplementary to a study of "Growing Disciples: Abide in Christ" by Andrew Murray and Bo Stevens.

God Undertakes Your Transformation

November 15, 2010 By Claude King

Abide in Christ 3: Transformation from Claude V King on Vimeo.

As you abide in Christ, God will undertake your transformation into Christlikeness–the goal of discipleship. He uses all kinds of good and bad circumstances that may come your way to chip away from your life the qualities that are not like Christ (Romans 8:28-29). This video clip is intended to be supplementary to a study of "Growing Disciples: Abide in Christ" by Andrew Murray and Bo Stevens.

Full Surrender to Christ

Full surrender to Christ as Lord is an essential ingredient for abiding in Christ. You are no longer your own; you belong to Him. Surrender to His purposes and to His pruning process in your life.

One Essential Spiritual Discipline

November 8, 2010 By Claude King

Abide in Christ 1: Relationship from Claude V King on Vimeo.

Abide in Christ is the first and most important discipline in The Disciple’s Cross. Your relationship with Christ is described by Him in His Parable of the True Vine in John 15. Without this saving relationship with Jesus Christ none of the other disciplines have any eternal value for your life. This video clip is intended to be supplementary to a study of "Growing Disciples: Abide in Christ" by Andrew Murray and Bo Stevens.
