Leadership Tools by Dr. Don Meyer

McNaughton, Daniel. "Learning to Follow Jesus." Morning Joy Media, 2010.

What happens after a person says, "Yes" and becomes a Christian? What does it mean to follow Jesus? What is prayer? Where do I start in reading the Bible? What is discipleship? Dr. Daniel McNaughton has written an outstanding tool to enhance the spiritual journey of any earnest Christian pilgrim. With a mixture of personal anecdotes and practical applications, he builds clear and practical steps toward Christian maturity. Each chapter shares a Scripture to memorize, spaces to write reflections, explanation and wisdom, and a prayer. I commend this book to you with highest recommendations to further your own faith journey, or to share with others.
