Making Kingdom Disciples: A New Framework

by Charles H. Dunahoo

Making Kingdom Disciples reorients how we think about and do discipleship. Charles Dunahoo—himself an educator and trainer of church leaders—leads us beyond programs to the kingdom worldview that transforms all of thought and life. Dunahoo's chief concern is that Christians know the Word, understand the World, and apply this knowledge. In Making Kingdom Disciples , Dunahoo helps readers to understand their service in God's kingdom, the differences between generations, the postmodern understanding of reality, and the Christian's life and worldview. Rather than develop a method, Making Kingdom Disciples presents the big picture, a new framework.

[John Yelverton · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book starts off like gangbusters and makes some very excellent points concerning the pitfalls of some modern discipleship methods, but then crashes and burns with some questionable exegesis at the end.

The idea in the book for discipleship isn't a new framework at all, though the book claims something of the sort. Its' concept is discipleship involves 1)knowing the Word, 2)knowing the world, and 3) applying the Word to the world. That makes the three sections of the book. On every count there are better books out there to read, if you want to learn about the Word, the world, and where the two meet.

Well written. Puts disciple making in the modern age into perspective. It also gives a clear picture of what the difference is between the generations and what the difference is between premodernism, modernism, postmodernism.

A must read for anyone involved in disciple making, in other words, every one.

First Christian book I've ever read that quotes Douglas Coupland - that's got to be worth something.
