Apprentice to Jesus by Cris Rogers

Discipleship is central to a life of faith - and the Bible model of discipleship is more like apprenticeship than simply learning. This book is designed to help you not simply learn about what Jesus knew, but become more like Jesus by doing what he did. At the heart of this resource is a self-assessment process, called the 'Disciple-Making Tool', which helps you discern your 'shape' as a disciple: whether your strengths lie particularly in your hands, in contributing, creating and leading; in your heart, in loving, appreciating and belonging; or in your head, in knowing, thinking and understanding. Though many disciples can be overdeveloped in one area and underdeveloped in another, Jesus invites us to grow in all three areas in developing towards Christian maturity. These daily readings - which include Bible passages, reflections, exercises and prayer - will help you journey step by step in your spiritual formation for the sake of reaching the world.
The Revd Cris Rogers is a Church of England priest. He studied for his first degree in theology at Trinity College Bristol, and obtained a MA in theology from Kings College London. He was one of the first 'pioneer' priests in the CofE, and is currently Rector of All Hallows, Bow, London. Cris is a lively and innovative Bible teacher, a dynamic preacher who is always coming up with new ways of teaching the Bible. Cris is creative through appealing to the senses, physically giving people some salt or water if that's what he's talking about, or cooking a bacon sandwich while talking about the food laws of Leviticus. Cris is a popular speaker and teacher at Spring Harvest, and author of six books including The Bible Book by Book (Monarch 2012).
