Pilgrim is a major new teaching and discipleship resource
from the Church of England. It will help enquirers and new Christians explore
what it means to travel through life with Jesus Christ.


A Christian course for the twenty-first century, Pilgrim
offers an approach of participation, not persuasion. Enquirers are encouraged
to practice the ancient disciplines of biblical reflection and prayer,
exploring key texts that have helped people since the earliest days of the
Christian faith. 



Believing that the Christian faith is primarily about
relationship, Pilgrim aims to lay a foundation for a lifetime of learning more
about God’s love revealed in Jesus Christ and what it means to be his disciple.
Assuming little or no knowledge of the Christian faith, Pilgrim can be used at
any point on the journey of discipleship and by every tradition in the Church
of England.


Pilgrim is made up of two parts: Follow and Grow. Each
consists of four short courses and a leaders’ guide. Follow introduces the
Christian faith for complete beginners, while Grow aims to develop a deeper
level of discipleship in those who have turned to Christ.


Each short course contains six-sessions, supported by
online audio-visual resources. All sessions combine a simple framework prayer,
reflection on the Bible in the lectio divina style, an article by a modern
writer, and time for questions and reflection.




The first book in the Follow Stage, Turning to Christ, explores the
questions candidates are asked when they decide to become followers of Jesus. This pack contains six copies of the book.
