Eternal Impact: Investing In The Lives Of Others

This is the best mentoring men book I have read. It has made powerful impact on my life as well as the men I have mentored.

I would recommend this book to anyone! It both inspires one to disciple and gives him the tools he/she needs to begin. This book will change your life.

This book is a starting point for those who should be mentoring others in discipleship. It helps to provide an insight into the workings of people who are involved with the Lord. We should not feel intimidated by God, and should step forward in our life to help others.

Every man dreams of leaving a legacy. In Eternal Impact, Phil Downer shows how men can leave a legacy that will endure forever-the lasting fruit of spiritual reproducers. This legacy is built through discipling and mentoring, helping men discover Jesus Christ's role in marriage, fathering and relationships, and then become effective in fulfilling His command to make disciples. Eternal Impact offers men a realistic, step-by-step guide for building men to become change agents in the world around them through discipleship. It's filled with dynamic examples of discipleship in action, straight-forward advice, and genuine openness. Each chapter is followed by questions for discussion, ideal for in-depth personal and small-group interactions...I can't give it five stars because there's a little fluff in it, but the main message is strong. As C.S. Lewis said, it's okay to skip over pages while reading a book.

This book is one of the best, if not the best I have read that deals with the topic of discipleship in the context of professional and family life. The author is open with his life, teaching by example, and a broad range of topics are addressed. I am looking forward to working through it with the men I disciple.
