Multiply: Building an Enduring Ministry
Ebook
God has not only created us with the ability to multiply through having children, he has also given us the power to multiply disciples who multiply disciples through the preaching of the gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit. In Genesis and Acts, we read how God enabled man to multiply biologically and spiritually. We read how the number of disciples greatly increased and multiplied during the era of the early church. In his book, Dr. David Nelson, explains eight principles for building a ministry of multiplication. These biblically based principles will empower you to see a solid ministry that will grow into a ministry that multiplies disciple makers.
“A veritable manual for leadership training, this book is based on authoritative Scripture and birthed from credible experience. As the daily need for better-equipped leaders deepens and widens, nothing short of a divinely orchestrated multiplying of servants of God will address the mounting deficits in knowledge, affection, and skills for local church ministry. Read this book to lay a foundation and then build your efforts to enhance pastoral health and advance church health, especially where Christ’s church is growing.”

David Nelson is the president and founder of Crossing Cultures International, a ministry that equips and multiples servant leaders. In 1986, he moved to the Philippines with a vision to start indigenous churches. While studying the gospels and the Filipino culture, he saw that Jesus’ method for training the disciples was a viable method of equipping future pastors and church leaders. From those humble beginnings, CCI has grown to over 10,000 pastors and church leaders currently in training in 41 countries. This book explains the principles he has followed since those humble beginnings. He is a graduate of Liberty University and Luther Rice Seminary. He has been married to Mindy since 1983 and they have two adult children and six grandchildren.
