Index to all 12 excerpts from Paying Attention to God Together: The Haver Way by Cadre Missionaries Dave Garda with Bill Allison.

Disciplemaking does not depend on finding perfect words or manufacturing spiritual conversations. It begins with faithful presence, unhurried attention, and noticing where the Father is already at work.

Jesus’ invitation was not “master this” or “come when you are ready,” but simply “come and see.” The heart of God makes room for questions, doubts, immaturity, gifts, and one more person.

The Hebrew word itself was not carried into the Greek New Testament, but the relational world it names fills its pages. Friendship is not the backdrop to disciplemaking; it is the environment in which disciplemaking flourishes.

Coffee, cinnamon rolls, an open Bible, and unhurried attention became signs of God’s prior welcome. Haver does not manufacture hospitality; it participates in the home God has already opened.

The Gospels locate formation at weddings, on roads, beside boats, in homes, and around tables. Jesus’ teaching came alive within ordinary life shared with friends.

Scripture repeatedly shows God entrusting truth to people who walk with others. This does not elevate relationships above truth; it recognizes faithful friendships as one of God’s chosen ways of carrying truth into life.

Learning with others does not diminish teaching, preparation, or truth. It recognizes that the Holy Spirit arrived first and can work through every believer gathered around the table.

Jesus invited people into relationship before they understood everything he wanted them to know. God gathers first and then forms people through shared life centered on his presence.

Haver is more than friendship built on common interests; it is friendship aimed toward God. Its heartbeat is simple: friends paying attention to God together.

Ordinary friends can open Scripture, ask honest questions, and discover that Jesus is already present among them. Haver is less a technique to master than a shared way of life.
