God's primary plan for the Church" willes pastor Bill Hull, is for disciples of Jesus to develop other men and women into disciples

The central action of the Great Commis sion, Hull points out, lies in Jesus command to "go and maoke disciples (Matthew 28:19) Since discipleship is the primary thrust of the commission we have been given, we must stop tacking it on to our existing structures as a subordinate program. It must function as the heart of church ministry

Developing disciples is not a cut-and-dried progre program, but al a living process. And there is no better way to leam this process than to return to the biblical blueprint for spiritual growth-by observing how Jesus trained his revolutionary band of men return

Hull takes us on a journey of discovery through the Gospels, following the Master Disciplemaker through four growth phases

Evangelizing "Come and See

Establishing: "Come and Follow Me

Equipping: "Come and Be with Me

Leading: "You Will Remain in Me"

Building the Church through making disciples requires time, patience, and loving sacrifice. But as we renew our commitment to carrying out Jesus' great commission, we'll discover that investing our lives in people rather than programs yields a lasting fruit

"This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples" (John 15:7-8).
