The gaping hole in our understanding of Jesus and disciplemaking...

If we don't understand the differences between training
and speaking, teaching, and preaching, then there is a gaping hole in our understanding of how Jesus actually made disciples.

How is training different than speaking, teaching, and preaching?

What could a Jesus-like approach to training look like for you?

These are the primary questions designed to help you explore The Training Genius of Jesus.

But here's the catch: The Training Genius of Jesus isn't a book to be read, consumed, and forgotten. It's an interactive dialogue with a handful of disciplemaking friends who are wrestling how Jesus made disciplemakers.

Surprise! When it comes to training, if you're doing all the talking, you're doing it wrong.

Here's an excerpt from The Training Genius of Jesus

Who should you do this with?
* Church staff
* Small group leaders
* Volunteer ministry leaders
* Your family

How to Use The Training Genius of Jesus
It's as simple as this...
* Open the booklet.
* When prompted in the booklet, stop and wrestle the questions.
* If you have other questions, explore them.
* When you see a reference to a Bible verse, open your Bibles and read the Scriptures in their contexts.
* Note: You're probably doing it right when your study together leads to more questions and deeper conversations about applying what you're learning together.

For Cup O' Joe with Bill readers and friends of Cadre Missionaries, The Training Genius of Jesus is FREE for a limited time!

Can you share The Training Genius of Jesus with others? We'd be offended if you didn't share it with others.

Can you read The Training Genius of Jesus by yourself?  You can, but wouldn't it be way better if you walked through it with others? 

Thank you for reading Cup O' Joe with Bill and for being a friend of Cadre Missionaries.

This four-session disciplemaking training experience takes you to the very heart of disciplemaking friendships that flourish and multiply. It's an exploration of how to live the "one-another" verses as found in the Bible. This will NOT be a lecture or a passive  workshop. Expect fun, thought-provoking interactions, encouragement, and God-directed transformation that you'll be able to apply to your life and ministry immediately. Bring your Bible and your framily (friends and family). Each person receives a training manual  and  a One Another Living Guide for taking what you learn back to those where you live, work, play, and church. Y ou'll encounter these four sessions: *  Session 1  (Thursday PM, September 5 th, 6-8 PM ) No Relationships = No Ministry;  Know Relationships = Know Ministry An out-of-the-box learning experience will get us started and explain why relationships are the heart of ministry—and God’s mode of operation for impacting and c...

So many people trying to find friendship and community...

If video above doesn't appear, go here . So many people trying to find friendship and community. Here's a thought. Instead of trying to "find" community, what if instead you sought to "build" community right where you live , work , play , and church ? But how does one "build" community? As a general rule, I try to take all of my questions to Jesus and the Bible.  So, how did Jesus "build" community?   This is where I invite you to do your own study on how Jesus used meals to connect with people. At a minimum, you could quickly search " Jesus eating. " What can we say with certainty about Jesus and eating in the Bible? It seems that Jesus enjoyed eating meals with all sorts of people—and the meal wasn't about the food—it was how Jesus connected with people. Can you think of a better way to connect with people? Perhaps this is why Paul lists "hospitality" as a requirement for all leaders in the church (1 Timothy 3:...
