In 2012 I’m planning to adopt a 290 year old discipleship tool for my use in mentoring folks in 2012.
It’s called “The Daily Texts” and it can be received free by email here…
If you can obtain the printed text version, I suggest the one here…
The use of these texts date back to 1722 and have remained about the same since then. There is a weekly “watchword” from scripture and then daily verses from the Old and New Tesament. Added to the basic concept of daily scripture texts (hence the name!) there is a very basic reading plan that covers the Psalms annually and the rest of the Bible in 2 years on Monday through Saturday an the three year lectionary reading on the Lord’s Day.
The printed version which I suggest has some additional helps for prayer and meditation that I consider valuable as well for those learning to pray since this IS a discipleship tool!
Running up until 2012 I want to “think through” how I plan to integrate this tool into ministry and how you might as well.
