Many church leaders want to raise up true disciples of Jesus – and they want their whole church to focus on the goal. They know that discipleship in Jesus is not quick and it is not an easy numerical growth strategy. It requires key shifts in the culture of a church and courageous personal change.
But many need help on the basic changes in focus that a church needs to make so that it truly zero in on disciple making? What are the shifts?
Help is provided in a book I helped Jim Putman write (Jim was the lead author) that came out ten years ago entitled, DiscipleShift: Five Steps that Help Your Church to Make Disciples Who Make Disciples. The book is a best seller in the Christian leadership space (over 100,000 copies).
Many will conclude that getting all the leaders in the church to read a book may not be the first or easiest path, so we have created an easy-to-understand summary of the book. It is free and it is called, Making the DiscipleShift in Your Church: The Basics in 5 Minutes.

The visual guide summarizes of the shifts required. This short, 5-minute guide will very simply explain the five shifts described in the larger book. We think you will find it very helpful when you read it – and so will your key leaders. The visual guide can be an introduction that causes your leadership to agree to all read the full book to understand at a deeper level the changes needed. Or, If you have previously read the book, it is also a great reminder of the key shifts to make. We believe you will want to share it with your leaders so everyone can better understand how to truly focus on disciple making.
