Journey at the feet of Jesus
D52 is small-group discipleship tool for who want to see lives change and Christ once again glorified through His church. It designed to:
1. get people into the Word and hearing Christ speak; (Luke 10:38-42)
2. develop a habit of spending time each day with Christ - listening, asking questions, and journaling;
3. see & understand the big picture of His plan to redeem the world; (Phil.2:2; 1 Cor. 2:16)
4. experience the greenhouse dynamic of "koinonia" for growth and development through encouragement, support and accountability; (Mt. 18:19-20; Col. 3:16) and
5. become active participants in God's plan to enlarge His kingdom through His church. (Mt. 28:18-20; John 20:21)
How It Works
Participants are asked to commit to approximately 30 to 40 minutes each day reading the Bible and answering a few questions, and meet with 2 to 12 people once a week for about an hour. Each small group time will consist of a discussion of the texts read during the previous week, comparing insights, along with a lot of encouragement and prayer. The discussion is guided to help each participant process the insights and instructions they have heard and seen in scripture and learn from each other.
Why Choose D52?
D52 is simple. All D52 requires is someone to lead the discussions and 2 or more participants. It is versatile and because God's word is alive and powerful,
it is effective. In addition, it is both reproducible and affordable. Because of its simplicity, anyone who has completed D52 can facilitate a new group. This offers great potential for multiplication.
We believe that D52 can make a difference in both individual lives and churches and we do not want anyone or any church to be left out because of the cost. Each book is only $12 + tax & shipping and we offer a discount if you purchase multiple copies. A Leader's Guide is included without cost with every first time order.
Good things happen at the feet of Jesus! Check out the testimonies below.
Real Stories
"D52 was truly life changing for me and my wife. Love D52!" - Kyle
"I absolutely and wholeheartedly recommend D52. There were distractions that presented themselves, but the victories and insights with a group of believers surpassed anything I could have ever imagined. It was unbelievable how the group fed each other and grew from week to week. This weekly practice became such an integral part of our lives, I literally grieved when it was over. - Amanda
“D52” …was life changing... Forever committed!" - Dena (and 14 months later still sold out for Christ and His Kingdom!)
"I VERY much enjoyed working through (D52) and was truly impressed with how it gently nudges the participant to see for THEMSELVES who Jesus is, what the purpose of the scriptures are and many other essential biblical precepts. I can see this being equally important for a new believer, OR someone like myself who needed to once again meditate on some of the great truths brought out in this study. I liked the simplicity of the materials; the directed reading and just a few simple questions (that were more than enough to discuss at length during group time, even with a relatively small group like ours.) - Sandra

Coaching for Progress & Joy
When most of us hear the word “coach” we think of sports. Maybe you immediately thought of your favorite football coach, running up and down the sideline, shouting across the field, throwing headsets on the ground, hopefully getting a Gatorade shower after a victory. Uh… no. We’re not talking about sports.
The term “coaching” is said to have originated around 1830 at Oxford University when one student helped another student prepare for and pass an exam. At that time a carriage was a vehicle which was also referred to as a coach. The student who helped another was said to have “carried” or “coached” him. It did not become associated with sports until much later.
Coaching has become a globally accepted means of helping others make progress. Most of the Fortune 500 companies around the world employ coaches because good coaches make a difference. I want to make coaching available to any ministry leader who wants help, regardless of the size of their congregation or their personal income. I coach to make a difference and I want to provide quality coaching to anyone who also wants to make a difference. In addition to coaching, I also train others to become more effective by utilizing coaching skills. I can provide references from the many I've been privileged to help and train. Contact me and let's have a conversation.
Who am I?
I am a thirty-five year veteran of ministerial leadership, leading both large and small organizations comprised of staff and volunteers. I understand the stress, frustrations, and disappointments of leadership. This is what led me into coaching as a means of helping others. My coaching experience goes back many years when I received coaching, but now I devote most of my time to helping others through coaching. My coaching training has come through the SEND Network of the North American Mission Board, one of the largest mission organizations in the country and through Creative Results Management through which I have completed the Coaching Mastery Certificate Program. I have many hours of coaching experience and have had the privilege of coaching leaders across the country and abroad. In 2020 I contracted with the Alabama Baptist State Convention to develop and oversee a network of coaches for church planters across the state. In my contractual relationship with them, I have trained a number of men and women who are now also making a difference in the lives of others. I am now broadening that spectrum to offer Biblical coaching to anyone who would like to walk worthy of Christ, please Him in every way, bear fruit in every work, and continue to grow in faith and love. In addition, we are offering training to anyone who also desires to advance the Kingdom of God.
Is your ministry bearing fruit that glorifies Christ? Do you feel stuck? Plateaued? Are you tired of the status quo? Would you like to make an eternal difference?
