When Jesus called his disciples, he embraced fishermen and tax collectors and turned them into some of the most influential men to ever live. Can modern church leaders empower regular people to meet their potential as servants of God?

Top Highlights

“We should train to be godly, instead of trying to be godly.” (Page 20)

“The right question teacher and student alike should be asking is, ‘Am I learning?’ And learning means application; learning is transformation; learning is creating a new attitude and behavior in the inner person.” (Page 16)

“A vital principle of discipleship emerges at this point: Do not recruit people for anything without first allowing them to have their curiosity assuaged.” (Page 33)

“The third basic characteristic of a disciple is that he or she bears spiritual fruit.” (Page 25)

“The second dimension is doing what he did in the practice of personal transformation, his practice in prayer, silence and solitude, fasting, frugality, chastity, service, and stewardship. The third dimension is doing what he did as he worked with those who followed him.” (Page 12)

In the last 12 years, I have used this book to return over one thousand US churches and hundreds of church overseas to their disciple-making roots. Next to the Bible, Jesus Christ, Disciplemaker contains the most important concepts ever written to equip local church to effectively make disciples. I cannot urge you strongly enough to read this book and use it to transform your church and your life.

—Bob Gilliam, president, T-Net International, Aurora, CO

So many churches today are experiencing spiritual coronaries because they place all their effort on ‘going to church’ and ‘doing church’ but not ‘being the church.’ Bill Hull shows not only why but how to place discipling at the heart of the church’s cardiovascular system to develop missional communities of faith. I love this book because it puts some spiritual teeth back into why disciple-making is the purpose of the church and the task of any spiritual leader.

—Randall K. Knutson, consultant, Church Resource Ministries

Bill Hull challenges our notions of who makes disciples, how long it takes, the learning process, and the end result. This book wonderfully shows how open and loving relationships were at the core of Jesus’ own disciple-making while he walked this earth, and how they are still key as he makes disciples today. His understanding is a needed voice to hear in doing ministry in the twenty-first century, especially for those who want to reach our nation and the nations.

—Alan Andrews, president, US Navigators

In this book Bill articulates a proven method of equipping leaders who will follow Jesus’ original pattern in preparing the Twelve for their leadership role in the early church. As the church around the world unites to ‘make disciples of all the nations,’ Jesus Christ, Disciplemaker will be an important roadmap that will keep us all true to Jesus’ vision.

—Michael J. Wilkins, distinguished professor of New Testament language and literature, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University

Bill Hull is a discipleship evangelist. His passion is to help the church return to its disciple-making roots. This God-given desire has manifested itself in 20 years of serving in pastoral service and authoring 25 books, including Jesus Christ Disciplemaker, The Disciple-Making Pastor, and The Disciple-Making Church. Bill speaks about discipleship around the world to both congregations and leaders. He is also a co-founder of The Bonhoeffer Project (www.thebonhoefferproject.com), a group of nationally known thought leaders championing a “new” gospel-that which Jesus taught-saying that those who are called to salvation are called to discipleship. Bill and his wife, Jane, make their home in Long Beach, California, and are the parents of two grown sons.
