SPEAKINg ON:
Starting & Sustaining a Movement

Biggest takeaway
Success is more about making disciple-makers than it is about growing numerically.
Voice I am amplifying
There is no please in the Great Commission. It's not a request.
Lie I’m silencing
That it can't be done here (USA).
Take action
Focus more on church health (which includes making disciple-makers) than on church growth. I am convinced that in the long run, we will see greater growth if our focus and priority is on making disciple-makers.
QUOTABLE
If nothing changes, nothing changes. We won’t see multiplying disciple-makers until we change how we raise them up in our churches.
