The Master Plan of Evangelism is pretty much THE methodology I hope to approach ministry by, and I can only hope to remain faithful to the calling to reproduce faithful men. It's incredibly easy to fall into the trap of succumbing to ministry because it is pressing and often gives visible results. The process of discipleship is slow, but the fruit is enduring and multiplying, and I pray that God continues to sear that into my heart. Thanks for your ministry! Todd Mike,

They're pretty popular reads, but they've profoundly shaped how I do discipleship. If you disciple one person next year, and at the start of the next year, both of you disciple just one new person each for the entire next year, and at the start of the next year the four of you all disciple just one person each, etc...then the whole world will be committed followers of Christ in 30 years. Crazy, eh? Have you ever read “The Master Plan of Evangelism” or “Born to Reprduce”? They’re pretty popular reads, but they’ve profoundly shaped how I do discipleship.
