Priority Reading List for New Family Disciples

June 17, 2005

Table of Contents

The following list of Letters is intended to help new Family disciples build upon their foundation in the Word which they have gained through the 12 Foundation Stones and 12 Bridges courses. This list is required reading for disciples during their first year in the Family but may be supplimented with other FD/MM/FM Letters which the Home shepherds feel may are appropriate.

The list is divided into general categories with the Letters under each category listed in a suggested order, though the reader is not required to follow that specific order. How new disciples choose to work their way through this list is up to them. One week they may read one Letter from each of a few categories, another week they may want to do a study on a specific topic, etc.
