Jesus famously said, “If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free” (John 8:31-32). But what does it really mean to be a disciple of Jesus?
Available in audio and video, this course will crystalize your understanding of the two vital elements that make up discipleship: mission and evangelization.
Throughout, Fr. Anthony Gittins expertly dissects familiar scripture passages, revealing the deep and inspiring faith of Jesus’ first disciples. His analysis of the important roles various women in the Bible is particularly moving. The concluding lecture ties everything together with powerful reflections on the cost of discipleship: a willingness to give up everything to follow Christ.
Ideal for your next Bible study, this course delves into the New Testament for examples of how we are called to perform God’s work. The companion study guide will help you follow along with each lecture and form questions for further discussion.

Discipleship was clear, insightful, inspiring. Fr. Gittins “adjusted our lens” so that concepts that were very traditional took on a fresh radiance and hope, for us as individuals and as a community.

Fr. Gittins’ presentation on “Discipleship” is at once affirming and challenging. He reminds us that the Word is as effective as we are willing to be compelled by it, and to incarnate in our day to day life on the ground. I highly recommend it.

Discipleship looks at the whole movement of becoming really involved in living the christian life. Clearly it is not for sissies. It links God’s mission in history with the daily life, prayer and action, of the Christian.

Excellent presentation!
Fr. Gittins does an excellent presentation on explaining the different facets of discipleship. With his knowledge of ancient thought patterns and customs, he is able to give a fresh interpretation to some of the gospel stories, i.e., the rich young man.

I love all Now You Know Media Courses, but at this moment, I love Father Gittins’ “Discipleship.” I just heard him speak at a conference in Laramie, Wyoming, and he is a wonderful speaker. Both his presentation then and his NYKM courses have changed the way I think about discipleship and inspired much stronger spiritual feelings and a desire to serve God and my fellow man in more meaningful ways. He is terrific!

I love the content and the freshness of thought. It spurred me to buy all his books which are full of new insights and very challenging. His new book “The Way of Discipleship” is amazing. Please ask him to do more for NYKM

I’ve watched this program, used it with groups, and loaned it to individuals. So many people have found it to be clear, challenging and encouraging. The same with Tony’s retreat, especially the segment, “Do This in Memory of Me”.

Father Gittins presents Discipleship as rooted in the Mission of Jesus. Father gives the theological background needed to understand Jesus’ Mission…then proceeds to use Gospel pericopes to show how we can live out our ministry as flowing from Jesus’ Mission. I am on my fourth listening…always learning something new about how to put the “zing” in my Evangeli-ZING efforts.
