Materials on the Christian Life 
by Russell Kelfer of San Antonio, Texas, USA
 
This web site is sponsored by Discipleship Tape Ministries, Inc. and Into His Likeness. Our goal is to help pastors, teachers, missionaries, and other Christians obtain practical materials on spiritual growth. For the past 20 years, we have provided free Bible teaching materials to help Christians grow "Into His Likeness". 

Russell Kelfer (1933-2000) was an elder and Bible teacher at Wayside Chapel in San Antonio, Texas for more than 25 years. During his lifetime as a business man and teacher he was active in a broad variety of Christian projects ranging from Christian education to a World's Fair pavilion presenting the Gospel to almost a half million people. His legacy of engaging, practical application Bible studies, poems, and fictional stories written in the spirit of parables knows no denominational boundaries. For our doctrinal statement, please see "What We Believe".

A plethora of instant communication tools!

Long after that list of available gadgets have gone the way of 8 tracks and telegrams, there will still be an urgent need for the most important and unchanging communication of all: Prayer.

Intimate, thoughtful, fervent, effective, life-changing conversation with Almighty God remains the most valuable communication there ever has been or ever will be. And it's still personal and face-to-face.
So why not unplug long enough for a practical, in-depth study of what prayer is really all about?
