Dysciples by Krish Kandiah was published by Authentic in April 2009 and is our 10359th best seller. The ISBN for Dysciples is 9781850788249.

This book examines the issue of dyscipleship as it's revealed in Matthew’s gospel.

Krish has coined the term dysciples to describe those of us who feel dysfunctional in our following of Jesus. The good news is that dysfunctional discipleship is nothing new and nothing to be ashamed of.

The very first disciples were dysciples too; they were constantly getting even the most basic of things totally wrong. If Jesus best friends and first missionaries were such weak disciples, then that gives us hope. We can be comforted and excited by the thought that Jesus can love and use us, just as he loved and used Peter, James, John, Matthew and co.

The obstacles we face as dysciples today are just the same as those that tripped up Jesus' first band of brothers.
