What is Discipleship?

One of the greatest needs of Christianity is to be discipled — to be taught how to live the Christian life! Jesus said to His disciples, to go out and "teach all nations!" (Matthew 28:19). The whole purpose of preaching the Bible is first to instruct people of their sinful condition, and their need for the Saviour, and then to train them as Jesus did His disciples.

These Bible Study courses will aid the student of God's word to learn "all things whatsoever I (Jesus) have commanded you!" There are twenty-one Bible Study Lessons to work through and enjoy. These are no simple studies or time wasters — they are milk, mixed with just the right amount of spiritual meat to help any seeking sinner find salvation in Jesus Christ, and every believer find the courage to stand for their Lord, and serve Him with full confidence in His perfect word!

Born in Texas in 1963, Craig got born AGAIN in 1980 through the efforts of a soul-winner who cared for his soul one Saturday night! During that same year, God called him to preach the Gospel, and directed his steps to a far away place called Ireland! Since arriving in Ireland in 1994, the Ledbetter family has been working at getting the Gospel of Jesus Christ into as many homes as possible through soul-winning, and especially discipleship. Pastor Craig gradually wrote these 21 lessons as he taught people in their homes how to follow the life of Jesus. He has started two churches in Ireland and teaches at the Cork Bible Institute. He is married to his wonderful wife, Nita, and has 5 marvellous children who have given them 8 amazing grandchildren!
