From the beginning of the formation of the Christian Church, the imperative of Christ to "Go and make disciples" has been its cornerstone task. All Christians are in need of discipleship and many resources can be brought to bear in this effort. This text provides 52 Bible study commentaries that are intended to assist Christians in this effort. It may be used for a one-year weekly Bible study by individuals, for small groups, or as a teaching/preaching resource.
