Yes, however the book is primarily designed as a tool to be used in a class, group, or one-on-one mentoring environment. While the book is designed as a tool to help you cover a comprehensive number of topics by providing a good overview, discussion questions, and faq – the real power is when a mentor shares with you how they have applied the concepts from their life.
Since there are so many topics covered, we have found that it is better to go through the book one chapter a week. In this way, it gives the learner time to process and apply the concepts before moving on to another chapter. At that rate, you can go through the book in 30 weeks. However, we have found that the book can be used over the course of an entire church year, giving breaks for holidays.
The book would appeal to anyone from a non-denominational, pentecostal, charismatic, or progressive baptist background. On key topics the teaching encourages adult baptism, an involved and active Holy Spirit, and an open view of eschatology.
After a year’s journey, believers can continue to grow in their understanding of faith by taking what they have learned and discipling someone else. The goal is not simply an increase of knowledge or a change in behavior, but maturity that is ready to invest in someone else.
