Unfortunately, these practices are often disconnected from the mission and purposes of God in reaching a lost world with the gospel message. What if the secret to unlocking spiritual growth was as simple as infusing our spiritual practices with an outward focus? What if we could learn from the example of Jesus and walk naturally in his footsteps as he leads us closer to the heart of God and the deepest needs of the world?In Organic Disciples, Kevin and Sherry Harney lead ordinary followers of Jesus through seven markers of spiritual maturity, showing how simple shifts in our Bible reading, prayer, community life, giving, service, and other biblical practices can connect us with God's work of reaching people with his love. Taking a holistic approach that unites evangelism and discipleship, Kevin and Sherry explain how God's plan for our spiritual growth is intimately connected to his mission to the world.True spiritual growth and maturity will always lead believers outward to engage the world with the good news and truth of Jesus. And in a surprising twist, our own spiritual growth will often remain stunted and limited until we take the step of joining God in his mission to love others. This book will help you see how Jesus modelled a lifestyle of loving others, overcome the common roadblocks and false narratives that stand in the way of spiritual maturity, and design a personal pathway of growth to be more like Jesus in character and mission.Along with the Organic Disciples book, churches and individuals can utilize a free, self-directed online tool to help each person identify where they are in their growth journey. In addition, there will be an eight-week sermon series and small group curriculum to take congregations and Christians deeper on this journey. Review 'This book in three words: exponential spiritual impact. Read and apply its message and it will impact your life, the lives of those you influence, and the many others whom they will, in turn, shape for Christ. Organic Disciples presents a biblical plan for changing yourself, your church, your community, and ultimately the world.' -- Mark Mittelberg, executive director, Lee Strobel Center for Evangelism and Applied Apologetics; author, Contagious Faith 'I have long relied on the brilliant evangelism leadership of Kevin and Sherry Harney, and I could not be more thrilled for their newest contribution about holistically connecting discipleship and evangelism in the church today. This work is long overdue, and there is nothing out there quite like it. A must-have for your ministry library.' -- Michelle T. Sanchez, executive minister, Make and Deepen Disciples, Evangelical Covenant Church 'In a world with so much confusion about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus, the Harneys not only shed light, they lay out biblical principles and practices that can lead us toward the life of fruitfulness we long for. So many have failed to see (and live into) the intimate connection between evangelism and discipleship. Organic Disciples fills this major void.' -- Kevin Palau, president, Luis Palau Association 'Kevin and Sherry Harney are some of the most genuine, faithful, faith-filled, and effective church leaders I know. I've had the privilege of seeing their hearts and the impact of their ministry firsthand. When they speak, I listen. They are a deep well of lived truth and grace. Let's all grow into more effective organic disciples by diving into this important new book together.' -- Craig Springer, author, How to Follow Jesus and How to Revive Evangelism; executive director, Alpha USA 'I love this book! It is one of the most inspiring and practically engaging boo\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harper Collins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42899159515371,"sku":"9780310120155","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/5296\/9542\/products\/9780310120155.jpg?v=1654284556","url":"https:\/\/biblestore.com\/products\/organic-disciples-seven-ways-to-grow-spiritually-and-naturally-share-jesus-9780310120155","provider":"Biblestore.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
