7 Practices of Disciple Making Churches: New Research on What Works in North America, by Bobby Harrington & Josh Howard with Mason Eagle
NEW RESEARCH REVEALING THE 7 PRACTICES THAT MULTIPLY DISCIPLES
“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

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.
