In-Depth Resources

Collaborative Discipleship’s In-Depth Resources

Since Collaborative Discipleship covers a wide range of topics, we’ve created a list of resources which can be used to help disciples go deeper into selected topics. A group could decide to read a book each semester or watch a video sometime during the week. We want to encourage discipleship groups to recognize the areas where they need to grow, and then actively pursue multiple ways they can grow in those areas.

These resources are listed below and are organized the same way lessons and immersive experiences are organized. To see how they are visually organized click on this image to view the interactive PDF.
