Christian Discipleship Books
Christian discipleship books abound. But over the years I've found that the list of truly great books on discipleship is rather small. There are other books I could and may in the future include. But this list is a good start.
General Christian Discipleship Books
The books on discipleship in this section discuss discipleship in general: what it is, why it's important, etc.Spiritual Discipleship: Principles of Following Christ for Every Believer By J. Oswald Sanders The Great Omission: Reclaiming Jesus' Essential Teachings on Discipleship By Dallas Willard The Cost of Discipleship By Dietrich Bonhoeffer If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat By John Ortberg
Christian Books on the Spiritual Disciplines
There are several great books (some considered classics) on the spiritual disciplines. But for most of us, this one book is the best and easiest to read Christian book on the subject.The Life You've Always Wanted By John Ortberg
"How To" Christian Discipleship Books
These books take you from theory to practice. They show you how to make disciples.The Complete Book of Discipleship: On Being and Making Followers of Christ By Bill Hull Lifestyle Discipleship: The Challenge of Following By Jim Petersen Discipleship as Political Responsibility By John Howard Yoder The Master Plan of Evangelism and Discipleship, 2 Volumes in 1 By Robert E. Coleman
Christian Discipleship in the Church
This list of books on discipleship discusses the integration of the Great Commission with the local church. That is, these books try to answer the question, "What should/does discipleship look like in the church?"Missional Church: A Vision for the Sending of the Church in North America By Edited by Darrell L.

Miller This list may not be exactly what you were expecting to find on a site dedicated to helping you better appreciate and partner with your pastor. If so,
instead of Christian discipleship books look at these general clergy books.
