Discipleship In The Home (w/ Matt Friedeman & Darrell Stetler) – Episode 192
Discipleship In The Home was born in Dr. Friedeman’s own home, as the father of six, and in the classroom, as a professor of Christian Education at Wesley Biblical Seminary. It is a wonderful blend of practical wisdom built on a firm Biblical foundation. It teaches:
-
How to create a family discipleship routine using a powerful family catechism for the dining room table
-
How to take simple steps you need to begin teaching your children (or grandchildren!) to love Jesus more.
-
How to help your children to memorize Scripture
-
How to get and maintain laser-focus on the most important things for your family
-
How to plan a meaningful father/son or mother/daughter retreat and rites of passage celebrations.
Darrell Stetler II (a small church pastor and dad of 7) and NewStart Discipleship added to the book a Resource Notebook that allows you to create a discipleship plan for children that you could start by tonight.
The Discipleship In the Home Resource Notebook will help you implement a family discipleship time, in the evening or at your dinner table, and create valuable moments where your children learn:
* Great hymns of the church
* Great prayers & quotes from Christian history
* The 3 great Creeds of Christian history: Apostles, Nicene, Athanasian
* 18 Key Bible passages to memorize first (153 verses)
* Catechism questions that will teach them core theology
* Available in KJV, ESV, and NIV – your choice
