“The Daily Disciple” Weekly Newsletter and Unpublished Book
Over the last eight years I have sent out on an almost weekly basis a discipleship newsletter to about 800 recipients I have met or taught in many places. This allows me to keep in contact with people and I often get positive responses from the writing. The weekly newsletter is called “The Daily Disciple” and these messages have been compiled in a book which attempts to teach discipleship. The book was submitted to both the Review and Pacific Press but remains unpublished. Below are some samples of recent messages with pictures.
| Are You Famous???? | Be a Monk, Not a Monkey | Bloom Where You Are Planted |
| Sweet and Low | The Hottest Hotel on Earth | That Big Safari in the Sky |
“Discipletree.com” Website
I have developed (and recently updated) a website called Discipletree.com which reflects my views on discipleship, helpful links and also a listing of materials I have developed over the years which relate to discipleship research, training, diagnosing and workbook materials.
