Followers of the Way

Discipleship is a huge issue in the church, a life-long process for which we require long-term skills. The Celtic Christians taught and modelled this through a Way of Life.

What discipleship means and how we help people to become true disciples is one of the most pressing issues in today's church. If discipleship is about connecting more deeply with God and connecting God with the whole of life, Simon Reed argues, we’re looking at a lifelong process that requires long-term skills rather than short-term courses. The Celtic and Desert Christians, drawing on Old and New Testament practices, modelled how to do this through the practice of living by a Way of Life. In this updated edition, Followers of the Way explores how we can look to Celtic Christianity to inspire authentic Christian discipleship today.
