Publisher's Description
"For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope." Jeremiah 29:11 How do we know God's plans for us? How do we know God leads and talks to us daily? How do we become more disciplined in our spiritual walk in order to better hear God's voice and guidance in our lives? There are no easy answers to these questions. However, when we are intentional in our times of prayer, Bible study, and reflection, the Holy Spirit opens our hearts to God's love, allowing us to see opportunities for further direction and growth. Discipleship--A Lifelong Spiritual Pilgrimage offers guidance and gives support to those already involved in this pilgrimage plus encouragement to those wanting to do more in developing good discipleship practices.

“There are many books on spiritual growth, but this is surely one of the best. In clear and simple language, Jones offers the average churchgoer a pathway to the deeper spiritual life. Jones draws on his diverse experiences in Baptist, Catholic, and Lutheran churches, and on the lessons of a personal life marked by tragedy but filled with joy. His book evinces a mature piety and a contagious enthusiasm for the life God wants us all to have; his suggestions are biblically sound, theologically rich, and eminently practical.”
“Vernon Jones presents in this little book an honest, accessible invitation to discipleship. One can read any chapter and . . . be edified . . . and understand how Jones, and all who belong to Christ, are continually being challenged to an ever deeper journey with God. It is, in the end, a book about hope and about God's relentless, loving claim on our lives, the best possible antidote to despair or aimlessness.”
