Notes
Also Available from Steve Addison
Steve and his wife, Michelle, lead MOVE, a mission agency devoted to training and deploying workers who multiply communities of Jesus? disciples everywhere. Steve is the author of Movements that Change the World: Five Keys to Spreading the Gospel. He blogs at www.movements.net.
"When it comes to church health, the single greatest indicator is
healthy, replicating disciples of Jesus. Addison thoroughly
establishes a framework for discipleship by analyzing the ministry
methods of Jesus, the early disciples and Paul, while interweaving
several real-life stories of multiplying disciples and churches.
What Jesus Started is an excellent, practical resource to help your
church take significant steps toward becoming an effective movement
of disciple-making disciples, which is what a healthy church is all
about. The application of the ideas contained in this resource,
empowered by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God, would do wonders
for cultivating a vibrant community of Christ followers!"
*Todd Engstrom, Outreach Magazine, 11th Annual Resources of the
Year: Church Health, March/April 2014*
"Pointing back to Jesus at every turn, the evangelism principles
outlined in What Jesus Started are highly applicable to everyone
who calls themselves followers of Christ, especially believers
young in their faith."
*Andy Toy, Worship Leader, May 2013*
