N2  - This   dissertation   “Discipleship   of   Inadequately   Trained   Christian   Workers   in   a Persecuted  Society  in  Lahore,  Pakistan”  reveals  the  crucial  need  for  discipleship training in the city of Lahore, Pakistan. By providing an overview of Lahore and Pakistan  in general, as well as examining the grip  of  a  dominant  religion,  Islam  and  the  effects  of  Islamic  laws  on  Christianity,  this research   investigates   the   challenges   Christian   workers face   as   being   real   thus emphasizing the need for discipleship training. As part of the research, a proposed basic training  guide  for  Christian  workers  is  included  which  will  serve  as  a  good  starting point to implement effective discipleship training in their churches. The subject is discussed  in the  light of the Old and the New Testament references, and in consultation with the relevant Christian scholars as well as my personal observations. I  believe  that this  study  will  create  an  impact on  the churches  in  Lahore, Pakistan  and around the world in realizing the need for discipleship training and its fruitful effects in our modern age
