No program but time, no book but the Bible : reflections on mentoring and discipleship in honor of Scott M. Gibson

Gibson, Scott M., 1957- (honouree.). Kim, Matthew D., 1977- (editor.). Sebastian, Stephen, (writer of afterword.). Swetland, Kenneth L., (writer of foreword.).

Summary: This book is a collection of short reflections on mentoring and discipleship in honor of Scott M. Gibson. Gibson says: "The missing ingredient in the Church today is discipleship." This book casts a vision for all believers for what mentoring and discipleship can look like in the local church, in Bible colleges and seminaries, and in Christian friendships. We hope that you will be inspired by Scott M. Gibson's example to be selfless and intentional about mentoring and discipling others. Gibson desires to see a multiplying effect of true mentorship and discipleship rippling across congregatio.
