More Disciples, by Team Expansion President, Doug Lucas
As a follower of Jesus, what’s the one thing you can take with you from this life to the next? The answer: More Disciples. More Disciples is a practical, how-to guidebook that lays out a clear path for learning and implementing church-planting movement (CPM) and disciple-making movement (DMM) strategies and life principles. The book contains in printed form most all of the tools and concepts frequently included in Team Expansion’s regular training on how to make and multiply disciples. In addition, readers can go deeper at a companion website, MoreDisciples.com.
What Noted Authors and DMM Specialists are Saying
Author and researcher, David Garrison, wrote, “More Disciples addresses head on the fundamental question: What’s it going to take to bring the world to faith and discipleship in Jesus Christ? More Disciples takes the centuries-old-challenge and, through the grace of God, places it within our grasp.”
DMM specialist, David Watson, added, “More Disciples is a book well done being published at a critical moment for the church and those who wish to see all nations as brothers in Christ. There are several major take-aways that will touch every audience. We love the link that More Disciples makes between disciple-making movements and churches. The book addresses one of the weaknesses in disciple-making movements by supplying curricula that is culturally adaptive and ready for those who are interested.”
Author Jerry Trousdale went on to say that, “More Disciples is truly an excellent resource for people wanting to get started, or get better at, catalyzing multiplying disciples. But it will also be a very useful reference resource for CPM/DMM veterans.”

All profits for More Disciples will go towards supporting additional translations of the Zume Project.
