I am very excited to host our first Alongsider Clinic in Akron. This is great disciple-making workshop based off the book “The Ways of the Alongsider.” The author Bill Mowry and I will be running the interactive event.
The Nav staff and I have used this book to coach many pastors. It is a helpful tool that lays out simply the biblical and relational principles that help people grow spiritually.
I had the privilege of running my first Clinic for my friend Pastor Doug Clark. Here’s what he thought of the day.
The Alongsider Training that we hosted for our leadership team significantly moved the 
discipleship “ball” forward at our church. People were inspired by the idea that everyone is called to walk alongside others for the sake of spiritual growth. Many had a cool Aha moment when they realized coming alongside someone boils down to just five simple points. 1. Being connected to God. 2. Being Connected to others. 3. Reading the Bible Together. 4. Helping another apply the Bible to their life. 5. Helping others engage in the mission of the Gospel. I knew it was great day because the time flew by and we together enjoyed ourselves.
