Going Deeper: 40-Week Discipleship Guide to Encountering Jesus

Wanting to disciple or be discipled in deep prayer? Long for more intimacy with God?

Designed for 1-on-1 discipleship, Going Deeper is a 40-week discipleship workbook that will take you on a slow, step-by-step journey into a deeper experience of God through prayer and the Bible. Complete with weekly readings, practical prayer assignments, and detailed guidance for mentors, you will be inspired and equipped to encounter God through 1-2 hours of daily prayer. For extra help, there is an optional video course of over 80 teaching and demonstration videos (prayerdiscipleship.com).

With over 16 years of experience in full-time prayer ministry, pastoring, and discipleship, author Jeff Mootz offers a wealth of experience, tools, and biblical understanding that will help you cultivate a deep friendship with God.
