The Like Jesus App is a part of the Like Jesus resource which is designed to help you, your ministry and church make disciples just like Jesus did. Download to engage with videos from the author, read full e-books, access small group discussion guides and assessment tools, and connect with your small group and church. Unlock all three books and every video with Individual Access, or sign in with the account your church connected. The Like Jesus app contains three modules with e-books and videos (some filmed in Israel) by Dr. Dann Spader, founder of Sonlife and GYI, to look at The Mission of Jesus (4-Chair Discipling e-book), The Model of Jesus (Walk Like Jesus e-book) and The Methods of Jesus (Live Like Jesus e-book). Dr. Spader has devoted his life to studying scripture and life of Christ to discover the "real" Jesus and looking not only at Christ's message, but also His methods and how He lived. Did Jesus really pattern His ministry life to model how to live and make disciples that reproduced more disciples? Yes! Jesus showed us how to make disciples that make disciples. WHOEVER CLAIMS TO LIVE IN HIM MUST LIVE AS JESUS DID. 1 JOHN 2:6 In addition, the Like Jesus app includes: • 4-Chair Assessment Tool • My Groups (small group engagement tool) • Full E-books and Discussion Guides • Over 30 Videos (many filmed in Israel) • Circles (Circle of Concern) • Real-time dashboards and metrics for you and your church This app is a great addition to the books by author Dr. Dann Spader including: • 4-Chair Discipling • Walk Like Jesus • Live Like Jesus This app can be used personally, in a small group, and is also designed for church-wide engagement with a leadership module (including leader videos, sermon notes, discussion guides, and assets).
