Transcend: Beyond the Limits of Discipleship
Ebook
We typically quote, “Go and make disciples.” But as a leader, the question that immediately comes to mind is how? Transcend from Missio leader Matt Smay (co-author of The Tangible Kingdom) emerged out of his frustration that our discipleship process tends to focus all of our energy on learning to love God without accounting for integration into our relationships. We tend to take a limited view that lacks opportunities for seeing life transformation happen as a continual process of development. Smay asks, “How can a person work out issues of forgiveness, repentance, anger, fear, holiness, generosity, etc. without other people involved in the process?” He asks important questions for leaders: What if the discipleship process focused on equipping people with life skills that were consistent with some of the most relevant challenges we face every day? What if our knowledge of discipleship helped us become better stewards of our time, priorities, and finances? What if we loved others and discipleship happened, thus transforming our churches, families, and neighborhoods? This book offers a simple framework for discipleship, real-life stories of discipleship in action, next steps for how to get unstuck in discipleship, and a clear pathway for disciple making.
