The concept of Operation Timothy is the biblical model of Paul (more experienced christian) leading Timothy (new or less experienced christian) through a series of discipleship studies. See 1 Tim. 1:3, 18-20.
Well, the exciting news is that Operation Timothy has been extensively reviewed and republished by CBMC as a totally free online resource! (You can still buy hard copies of the study books, leaders guides and other resources at http://www.operationtimothy.com/)
First Steps is now titled Book 1: Life Questions (foundational, designed to lead a non-believer through questions about the Christian faith).
There are 6 sessions:
1. What's the purpose of life?
2. Is the bible credible?
3. Where is God?
4. Who is Jesus?
5. Why did Jesus come?
6. Can I be accepted and forgiven?
Operation Timothy 1 is now titled Book 2: Life Foundations. There are 7 sessions.
Operation Timothy 2 is now titled Book 3: Life Perspectives. Again, there are 7 sessions.
The link to the eOperation Timothy is http://advance.cbmc.com/products/operation-timothy. You will need to create a log-in but it's a very simple process (email+password).
Each session is expected to take a week, followed up by a meeting between "Paul" and "Timothy" in which the session content is discussed.
The website flows well and allows secure log-in, recording of personal notes (that can be viewed by the user only), videos, podcasts and links for deeper studies.
In summary, eOperation Timothy is a very, very good resource for disciple-making.
