| Great spiritual helps magazine | |
| I have been a subscriber to DJ for over twenty years. There is no fluff in this magazine, just milk and meat to challenge the believer to go higher in their walk with Messiah. There are bible studies, helps, great photos, and great art. The bad side is that there are only four issues a year. The good side is that those four issues are chock full of stuff to help you grow more like Jesus. | |
| Meaty, Challenging, Instructive | |
| "Discipleship Journal" does what many other Christian magazines do not do. It provides instruction, and challenges the reader to be directly and fully engaged in a Christ-focused faith. While others may talk about Christianity, DJ asks you to pursue Christ through responding to Scripture. This isn't an evangelistic magazine, like "Decision," or an encouraging magazine, per se, like "Moody." It is for the Christian looking to grow in his or her faith by examining themselves and what God's word says. It is not for the passive pew sitter. This for the Christian who wants his or her faith to impact the days between Sundays. There is nothing watered-down here. It is published by NavPress, who, like their counterparts, the college ministry Navigators, know the crucial necessity of biblical study by the everyday Christian. Whether it is a discussion about Satan's favorite lies, how to study a particular book of the Bible, or an explanation of what prayer is an is not, DJ is the sort of publication that will cause you to pause mid-page and realize something new about our Lord and his ways. This is a great tool for two or three people to use together. Even a small group... to go through the articles, week by week and discuss them and what this means in real life. I've even heard of CCD and Sunday school classes asking everyone to read selections from a certain issue as fodder for the next week's class. I fully recommend "Discipleship Journal." Expect your faith to grow. Anthony Trendl |
