Discipleship Journal is a powerful tool for improving your Bible study and quiet time. Each issue focuses on one aspect of your relationship with Jesus Christ and explores practical ways to enrich it day by day. DJ includes a study guide and discussion questions.

Meaty, Challenging, Instructive

"Discipleship Journal" does what many other Christian magazines do not do. It provides instruction, and challenges the reader to be directly and fully engaged in a Christ-focused faith. While others may talk about Christianity, DJ asks you to pursue Christ through responding to Scripture.

This isn't an evangelistic magazine, like "Decision," or an encouraging magazine, per se, like "Moody." It is for the Christian looking to grow in his or her faith by examining themselves and what God's word says.

It is not for the passive pew sitter. This for the Christian who wants his or her faith to impact the days between Sundays.

There is nothing watered-down here. It is published by NavPress, who, like their counterparts, the college ministry Navigators, know the crucial necessity of biblical study by the everyday Christian. Whether it is a discussion about Satan's favorite lies, how to study a particular book of the Bible, or an explanation of what prayer is an is not, DJ is the sort of publication that will cause you to pause mid-page and realize something new about our Lord and his ways.

This is a great tool for two or three people to use together. Even a small group... to go through the articles, week by week and discuss them and what this means in real life. I've even heard of CCD and Sunday school classes asking everyone to read selections from a certain issue as fodder for the next week's class.

I fully recommend "Discipleship Journal." Expect your faith to grow.

Great spiritual helps magazine

I have been a subscriber to DJ for over twenty years. There is no fluff in this magazine, just milk and meat to challenge the believer to go higher in their walk with Messiah.
There are bible studies, helps, great photos, and great art.
The bad side is that there are only four issues a year.
The good side is that those four issues are chock full of stuff to help you grow more like Jesus.

I can't let go of an issue!

Discipleship Journal takes me back to the days when I used to run to the mailbox each day to find out if something had arrived for me. The whole of it is a gift, pure and simple. Whether I need suggestions for an icebreaker at a small group I lead, inspiration from authors like Mark Buchanan and Paul Thigpen, or thoughtful pieces on Biblical interpretation and application, it's there. Each issue contains a suggested daily Bible study guide that individuals or groups can use, corresponding to different pieces in the issue, along with relevant passages from the Old and New Testaments.
And the artwork alone is amazing. The editors seek out talented and accomplished artists who view their art as part of their spiritual life and communication with God. Some of the covers and interior prints are frameworthy.
DJ is hard to find on newsstands. Although many Christian bookstores carry it, I recommend this subscription since it will save you money. Besides, why pass up on the fun of actually looking forward to getting the mail...at least six times a year!
