Free Stuff Fridays (Disciple-Making Resources)

This week’s Free Stuff Fridays is sponsored by Matthias Media. You remembered from their sponsored post that they have released The Vine Project, an unexpected sequel to The Trellis & the Vine. Today they are giving it away as part of a collection of disciple-making resources. There will be 5 winners this week and each will receive the following 5 products:

This is highlighted, of course, by The Vine Project. Here’s what you need to know about it: “In this much-anticipated book, Colin Marshall and Tony Payne answer the question they have been asked countless times by pastors and church leaders all around the world since the publication of The Trellis and the Vine. The question goes like this:

“Look, I’ve read your book, and it expresses what I have always thought about Christian ministry. But as I kept reading, I had this sinking feeling that what actually happens in our church is still a long way from the kind of disciple-making ministry vision you outline and that I believe in. So my question is this: What can we do about it? How can we shape the whole culture of our church around disciple-making?”

In The Vine Project, Marshall and Payne provide a roadmap and resources for this sort of church-wide culture change. The book guides your ministry leadership team through a five-phase process for growth and change, with biblical input, practical ideas, resources, case studies, exercises and projects along the way.
