At Family Christian Centre in Fort McMurray, Alberta, we have used The Purple Book as a foundational discipleship tool. The result has been remarkable, producing genuine spiritual growth and a hunger for God's Word throughout our church community. This book is born out of that lived experience, with the prayer that it will be a valuable guide for churches and believers everywhere.
