7 Practices of Disciple Making Churches: New Research on What Works in North America
NEW RESEARCH REVEALING THE 7 PRACTICES THAT MULTIPLY DISCIPLES
Most North American churches are busy—but not multiplying. Many still lack a reproducible pathway from conversion to disciple making. In 7 Practices of Disciple Making Churches, Bobby Harrington, Josh Howard, and Mason Eagle reveal “Level 5” churches where multiplication is the culture. Through case studies and clear criteria, they identify seven shared practices and show how to build them into your church’s everyday rhythms—so disciples make disciples, right where you are.
“The authors have put gasoline on the fire of the Great Commission in our time. This book comes from practitioners rather than consultants.”
Jim Putman, author, pastor, and leader atthe Relational Discipleship Network
“A valuable tool in the hands of anyone who wants to get serious about developing a disciple making culture.”
Jeff Vanderstelt, author and executive director, Saturate
“The disciple making resource pastors have been asking for—grounded not in theory, but in proven practice.”
Vick Green, CEO, Replicate Ministries
