What people are saying about Parallel Faith

  • “In the same way Jesus used parables to demystify the kingdom of God, Dave Boden has written Parallel Faith in such a way to demystify what is often perceived as more complicated than it really is: discipleship. In doing so, Boden draws and equips the everyday follower of Jesus toward Jesus’ compelling vision for all of his followers to join him in his disciple-making work, right where they live.”

    —Alice Matagora, Leader development, The Navigators, Author


  • “In this book, Dave Boden offers us an accessible and inspiring opportunity to take a deep breath and reset both the purpose and trajectory of our lives. As he puts it, ‘Proximity changes perspective.’ In a culture constantly clamoring for more ‘reach’ and increased ‘platform,’ Boden reminds us that the greatest missional impact to be made is right here in the relationships of possibility and promise in our midst.”

    — Jay Y. Kim, lead pastor, WestGate Church, San Jose, California, Author

  • “There are lots of books on evangelism and lots of books on discipleship, but I love how my friend Dave Boden fuses evangelism and discipleship in this brilliant book. It is both challenging and inspiring, practical and doable, biblical and personal. Even if you don’t feel you have much time to read, Parallel Faith is written in such a way that it can be easily read in short sessions. Honestly, this is a must-read for any follower of Jesus, however long you have been on the journey.”

    — Rev. Mark Greenwood, Head of evangelism, Elim Churches UK


  • “If you’re looking for a fresh approach to disciple-making and evangelism, Dave Boden’s book is for you. It’s filled with great stories, current research, and biblical principles. Boden takes a subject that is profusely written about and brings new insights and new approaches. You won’t find nice concepts here but practical principles and how-tos drawn from real life that will empower you to engage with people relationally and biblically where you live, work, or play.”

    — Bill Mowry, author of The Ways of the Alongsider: Growing Disciples Life to Life


  • “Practical and powerful discipleship tools from a real disciple-maker. For years, I’ve wished that every Christian could see how Dave and Leah Boden disciple those around them. With this book, now they can. I have learned more about living life alongside others as a Jesus follower from Dave than any other individual. He has walked beside me for much of my life following Jesus—and now through this book, he gets to walk beside you too.”

    —David Bowden, Founder, Spoken Gospel

  • "Parallel Faith offers guidance for creating caring relationships that offer opportunities to explore what God is really like in safe spaces. Prepare to have your paradigms shifted in unexpected ways by the truth that ‘loving the person in front of you can indeed be done on any schedule.’ If you've been looking for a guidebook for effective and sincere discipleship, you’ve found it!”

    — Juni Felix, Author and Radio Host

  • "Filled with thoughtful reflection questions, insightful illustrations, and engaging stories, Parallel Faith helps ordinary disciples take courageous steps to listen generously to others, reframe the misconceptions of Jesus held by many, and creatively demonstrate the hope that is in Jesus Christ."

    — Brett Andrews, Director of People Development, YFC Canada

  • “A must-read for every Christian! Dave has a unique and light-hearted way of writing and inspiring all of us to take the path of intentionality when it comes to connecting and walking with others and leading them one step closer to Christ. This book helps us all rethink how we can be a positive influence and connect with others with open hearts and curious minds. It is God’s work, and we are all called to play a part in it.”

    — Jo Haaijer, European director, OneHope


  • “There is such a deep need in our world for disciple-makers and insight into how we journey with people through transformational moments. Dave Boden has done a wonderful job of equipping all of us to change lives. Parallel Faith is a profoundly relevant, passionately winsome, and stylishly eloquent step-by-step guide of how we can make lifelong disciples of Jesus. I’m grateful for my friend’s contribution to this important area of life and ministry.”

    —Phil Knox, evangelism and missiology senior specialist, Evangelical Alliance, Author
