Empowering Missional Disciples: An Introduction to 3DMovements

WHAT KIND OF CHURCH IS JESUS BUILDING?

Many people today sense we have gotten so focused on planting and growing churches designed to meet people's expectations that we have lost sight of Jesus' original intent. When Jesus said he would build the church, what kind of church did he have in mind? A careful reading of the Gospels reveals Jesus' life was focused on three key priorities:

• Empowerment: giving people the power to live a new kind of life by restoring their true identity and teaching them to exercise their God-given authority
• Discipleship: training people to do everything he did by inviting them into his life and showing them how to multiply that way of life in the lives of others.
• Mission: calling people to live out the purpose of God for the sake of others as part of an extended spiritual family on mission to change the world.

Through personal stories, biblical teaching, and practical strategies, Bob Rognlien challenges you to explore the pattern of Jesus' life from a new perspective to see how it can change your life, your marriage, your family, and your church for the better. Empowering Missional Disciples is an in-depth introduction to this Jesus-shaped way of life and invitation to join a global movement which is equipping people to model and multiply this way of life in the lives of others.
