New Resources from Discipleship Journal (NavPress)

Here are three new or upgraded resources put out by Discipleship Journal (NavPress) that you might find helpful in your lesson preparation or for your students as we approach the end of another calendar year:

1. DISCIPLESHIP JOURNAL ON-LINE ARCHIVES

I've been a subscriber to Discipleship Journal (DJ) magazine for over twenty years. I've also written many articles for this publication. And I find that I often use back issues of DJ as resources for various topics on which I teach.

Now, DJ has restructured their archives so that many portions of past issues are available on-line through their on-line archives. All you have to do is go to the archive homepage where you can browse by topic, by author's name, or do a search.

2. DISCIPLESHIP JOURNAL BIBLE READING PLANS

At the end of every fall semester (which for us, wraps up in December), I provide the ladies in my classes with various Bible reading plans. Though I've used several, I consistently return to those put out by DJ. I just think their the best, the most flexible, and the easiest to use.

In the past (with permission from DJ, of course), I've just run copies of the Bible Reading Plans I receive in the Nov/Dec issue of the magazine I receive each year. Now, DJ has offered them in batches of 25 that cost less than what it costs me to print them.

DJ offers three different Bible Reading Plans (all have free downloadable samples in PDF format):

3. Prayer Guides for Advent, Christmas, and the New Year (make great gifts)

These 3.5" x 7" laminated cards are sold in packs of 50 for only $5.60 (about 11 cents each), but they hold a wealth of encouragement:

Beyond these seasonal prayer guides, NavPress offers cards on a host of other topics (about 20). If you'd like to preview them first, you can order a sampler pack of 17 cards for under $5.

I hope you'll find something useful here for your students or for your lesson preparation.

'Til next time,
Joan
