Recommended Resources for A Disciple

Casey Wilson

Updated: Jul 17, 2024

God has "hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" in Jesus (Col. 2:3). Therefore, make it your aim to know him.


The most important thing we can do is pick up a Bible, read, and pray.

In addition, start building a library of trusted resources.


Cheers!
