Growing Disciples Organically
Follow me. These two simple words, spoken by Jesus, are often overcomplicated with theological, psychological, and sociological interpretations. In Growing Disciples Organically, Don Detrick uses metaphors from organic farming to cultivate a less complicated, organic approach to growing disciples.
Many of the rich lessons Jesus taught are lost on 21st century readers, whose concrete and computer-dominated environments are far removed from the dirt roads Jesus traveled. Despite fascination with all things organic, most modern consumers have little understanding of how a meal gets from the farm to their microwave. Yet Jesus frequently compared farming practices to spiritual growth.
Dr. Detrick’s powerful book is uniquely positioned for such a time as this in the church, as new generations discover that bigger churches don’t guarantee spiritual formation in the life of attendees, nor do they equate greater numbers with greater levels of spirituality.
