DiscipleShift

DiscipleShift (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2013)

I am in the mountains near Colorado Springs this week for CIY Wilderness, and one of the books I am reading is DiscipleShift, by Jim Putman and Bobby Harrington.

We are called to make disciples. Jesus made that very clear in the Great Commission, and elsewhere throughout the New Testament. But how do we become churches that produce disciples that produce more disciples?

Throughout history, the church has taken different approaches to disciple making, not all of them effective. And in an increasingly apathetic culture, how can we continue to fulfill this mandate? Perhaps it’s time for a shift in our thinking. Perhaps it’s time for a shift in our mindset. Or, as these two authors point out, perhaps it’s time for five key shifts in our approach to disciple making.

I’m really excited about reading this book where I can discuss it with so many other ministers. I am excited to see how God might impact my thinking in this area through this book in the context in which I’m reading it.

If you would like to read DiscipleShift, you can order a copy on Amazon.
