“Matthew Eckert has done all of us an enormous favor by producing this ‘coach’s guide’ to growing reproducing disciples. All I can say is, “Matthew, where were you when I needed you”? I wish I would have had years ago this very practical tool that highlights the key issues accompanied by everyday wisdom that come up in the intentional process of disciple-making. I will personally add this guide to my small arsenal of necessary resources.”
Greg Ogden Writer, Speaker, Teacher on Discipleship www.gregogden.com
“Matt understands that discipleship is wrapped in relationships that are willing ‘to go the distance. Life on life for the long haul stuff.’ So it is no wonder that the truths he packs into this short book have those qualities. No easy answers and no formulaic success principles. Just real life. This is a must read for anyone looking to move into a discipleship relationship. It is essential reading for anyone who thinks discipleship is simply a program.”

Church leaders continue to look for initiatives that will help them lead their congregants to become disciples of Jesus. They are often pressured to do more bible study, increase prayer or help others serve more in their church of community. Is discipleship these unique activities or is it better to view them as an integration of them, will we see that deep transformation occurring only as these various disciplines and activities encounter and interact with each other?
The initiative outlined in this book looks at the impact of an 8-month integrated discipleship program.
