From the Publisher
Today in America, half of the people prefer not to learn by literate approaches. They simply won’t or don’t read much. Begin transforming the lives of this generation by using first-century methods. Jesus taught His disciples and the crowds through parables, and now you can take Jesus’ approach in discipling. The “TruthSticks” strategy is a revolutionary approach using the DNA of first-century disciple making that will:
- Use Bible storying to effectively make first-century disciples at all levels
- Unite families by using fun methods to disciple children
- Revitalize small groups with highly interactive Bible-storying methods
- Develop a disciple-making church
Make truth stick like Velcro in a Teflon world by using Bible stories, dialogue, drama, and songs. Use all the methods of learning and teaching that Jesus did to make disciples!
