Join us for the 2026 National Disciple Making Forum: https://discipleship.org/2026-national-disciple-making-forum/ Check out the Church Disciple Making Culture Assessment: https://discipleship.org/disciple-making-culture/  Stay informed - Get our newsletter:  http://eepurl.com/hPViAr   Josh Howard and Dr. Bobby Harrington discuss their new book, The Seven Practices of Disciple Making, and the research that uncovered North American churches that actually multiply disciples. They explain the level system, the surprising finding that fewer than 5% of churches had reproducing disciple making cultures, and how nine Level 5 churches were identified through objective assessment and interviews. The episode highlights practical takeaways for church leaders: define what a disciple is, mobilize everyday members (not just paid staff), measure real disciple making outcomes, and explore resources like the National Disciple Making Forum and the book to help build a multiplying culture.
