This series of disciple-making guides are designed to help you in your journey of making devoted followers of Jesus, but they are not the only ingredient. Spend time asking questions about everyday life, giving feedback, and listening well. Share stories from your own life in the process. Help your discipleship partner get plugged into a good local church and encourage them to serve all those around them. When they sin, help them find forgiveness and healing. When they do well, encourage them, and spur them on to greater works. Above all, pray for them much, and be a good example and a friend.
