Narrative Journey Series

Fashioned after the ministry of Christ, rooted in the historic practice of catechism, tailored for the establishment and expansion of the church, and re-envisioned for a postmodern society, the Narrative Journey facilitates a churchwide dialogue around key biblical narratives, illuminating core elements to the Christian life. As a whole, the Narrative Journey is divided into three subseries—Foundations, Essentials, and Pathways—which generally correspond to the growth process of a maturing Christian. Foundations orients new believers to basics of the Christian faith, preparing them for baptism. Essentials establishes disciples and churches in core biblical teaching, covering the topics of Christian belief, living, formation, community, devotion, and witness. Pathways equips emerging leaders in fundamentals of Christian mission, worldview, leadership, and ministry. Like fountainheads from which living waters flow, each of these subseries—and their related topical domains—serve as headsprings that irrigate Christians and churches in their journey of discipleship.
