Think Obedience-Based Disciple-Making: 9 Shifts for a Disciple-Making Culture

Alan Hirsch's "Forgotten Ways" delves into the early church's methods of mission and discipleship, contrasting them with contemporary practices. The book argues that the Western church has largely lost the art of making disciples, focusing instead on programs and events rather than intentional relationships and spiritual reproduction. Hirsch explores the historical context of the early church, highlighting its emphasis on organic growth, community, and the empowerment of ordinary believers. He challenges readers to rediscover the forgotten ways of the early church, emphasizing the importance of relational discipleship, missional living, and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit. The book offers practical strategies and insights for revitalizing the church's mission and fostering a culture of disciple-making.
