NO COWBOY LEFT BEHIND

Howdy folks,

Cowboy churches are one of the fastest growing non-traditional church groups in North America. As a result, according to cowboy church planters and pastors one of the things that is desperately needed is material for discipling new believers. NO COWBOY LEFT BEHIND was written in response to this need. It is not your typical discipleship book. Unlike the many books on the subject of discipleship that have been written, this book is western-themed and sensitive to the cowboy culture. In addition, it is written to meet the need for discipleship training material among cowboy churches.

NO COWBOY LEFT BEHIND is designed to provide the new believer with a practical and immediately usable resource for growing their faith. It has a simple goal: to encourage them to establish habits that will have a positive impact upon their spiritual life. These include: spending time with God in prayer; reading and studying your Bible; fellowshipping and worshiping with other believers; and, sharing your faith with others. Although many new believers, in their own way, will have tried to do many of things put forward in this book, they may also have felt from time to time that they would like to have a better handle on how to reach spiritual maturity in Christ. If so, this book was written for them.

Even though NO COWBOY LEFT BEHIND was intended for individual study, my prayer is that it will also be a useful handbook for the mature Christian who wants to disciple other believers, as well as a discipleship training manual for cowboy churches. In any case, all readers will find that it is not a book to be read and reacted to but, rather, a resource document to be absorbed and applied.

The book should be available early this Spring. In the meantime, if you have any questions you can contact me at mgburn@shaw.ca.

On the trail for Him,

Mike and Suzann
