“Dave Buehring, a friend of more than 30 years, is a man of God who disciples. I applaud his experience, his skill, and his character personally. I encourage you to become a better discipler by learning the principles and practices as he imparts them in A Discipleship Journey.”

“Eugene Peterson once called discipleship in an instant age “a long obedience in the same direction”. As a resource, A Discipleship Journey, unlike many others, focuses on what will always prove to be the one thing most worth aiming for under the direction of the One Person most worth living for. We will never complete such a journey in this life for it is the ongoing song of the angels around the throne, but we can do no better than begin with the Maker of all things and trace His tracks through the hills and valleys of our walk with Him. Dave Buehring has done us a great service in His offering of wisdom and love to the Lord for our benefit.”

“A Discipleship Journey is a comprehensive treasure-trove and foundational resource guaranteed to enhance the spiritual life of leaders and new believers alike.”

“A Discipleship Journey was a wonderful resource as I taught a White House Bible Study for young women. They loved going through the different chapters each week. It was a great way to teach the basics for new believers and to grow those that wanted to go deeper in the Word of God. Thank you Dave!"

“The most important, and often neglected, aspect of a person’s life is his or her spiritual foundation. Many start well, few finish well. In A Discipleship Journey, Dave Buehring has drawn a masterful blueprint for such a foundation, carefully sketched with Biblical principle and richly nuanced by practical wisdom. This is not just another 'discipleship plan', but rather a guide to life-changing encounter with the Lord! That is why it is called 'a journey'. The author has lived what he has written, and his insights have been painstakingly forged on the anvil of a very personal and intimate walk with God.”

“A Discipleship Journey is the perfect companion to augment the spiritual component of our Hope Force International prerequisite training. We have given each of our Reservists a copy of this book to facilitate the daily process of their spiritual development. We especially appreciate the fact that A Discipleship Journey reinforces what we believe is crucial for every follower of Christ: the maintenance of healthy relationships with God and others, an emphasis on the importance of identity in Christ, hearing God's voice and the power of prayer.”

“In a culture that changes at the speed of light, it is so refreshing to have a book that speaks to the timeless ways of God. This book takes you on a journey with your Creator that will leave you changed. For anyone desiring to go deeper in their faith, A Discipleship Journey is a must-have.”

“Our ministry staff has been searching for a tool to use in implementing a discipleship curriculum in local congregations within our judicatory. In my opinion, A Discipleship Journey is the most comprehensive guide for teaching the foundational principles of discipleship that I have seen. Utilizing the book, A Discipleship Journey, we have developed a survey to help pastors "benchmark" their progress toward creating a culture of spiritual maturity within their respective congregations. I am very thankful for Dave Buehring's ministry in this essential area of church life.”

"A Discipleship Journey is an incredible resource for those seeking to deepen their walk with Christ. Instead of dabbling in a few discipleship issues, this book comprehensively covers most discipleship materialÉI highly recommend this book for those seeking a comprehensive study on all aspects of discipleship. A Discipleship Journey has proven to be a successful resource at our church for challenging men while calling them into deeper community. We are looking for ways to use this valuable resource in other areas of our church, as well.”

“I have a complaint about this book: it's late! I needed it thirty years ago when I first began to sail the waters of faith. I needed it twenty-five years ago when I first began to navigate the roiling waves of ministry. But enough of the whining! Finally, Dave Buehring has provided me and every other long-suffering adventurer with a reliable, practical guide to the whole waterfront of spiritual formation and mentoring. I couldn't be happier. At long last.”

“A Discipleship Journey is more than a curriculum; it is an interactive, scripture-saturated tool the Holy Spirit uses to transform our missionary interns at Book of Hope into the "one heart, one mind" team they need to be to carry out their assignments to the nations.”

“We simply think A Discipleship Journey is the best...simple yet profound. The Lord transforms each of us in one way or another through each chapter. We are using this resource with those in our top leadership positions so that we all have the same understanding before passing it on to the others. Those in the fellowships keep asking when we will go thru it with them!”

“I have appreciated the communication I have had with the author, David Buehring, when we began to look at using A Discipleship Journey. It is not too often that the author of the book you may be using to help build your church takes the time to dialogue with you. We are using David's book in our Home Groups to clear away the debris, dispel the misconceptions and to build lives on a strong, sure and right foundation!”

The book itself is flexible to be used with different age groups and levels of faith. The layout, design and breadth of the study is enriching the lives of the saints and helping them to take hold of Christ in new and meaningful ways. A Discipleship Journey is the high octane fuel for our sojourn with Christ and one another.”

“I began using the book in our small group bible studies on Monday nights. After making it a habit to reflect on an attribute of God’s character from the back of A Discipleship Journey each week, it has made searching for God’s character in the scriptures a natural part of my study. I have gained a great deal from this book; in fact I had to get a new one – I wore out the binder.”

“I have been using A Discipleship Journey with a group of four other girls – all at different places in our journeys with the Lord. We are only beginning Chapter Five, but the book has already had such an impact. The chapter on Grace spoke to me so personally and powerfully. The progression of the chapters are very well thought out and purposeful. Thanks for your heart and hard work that is benefiting many – including me.”

“Thank you for this book! The subject is right for us because one of the first goals of our church is to make disciples. A Discipleship Journey is so practical and easy to use, and is a tool to help the Body of Christ to rise and be trained to do everything that the Lord commanded us to do!”
