Product Description
Discipleship is contagious. If the church leader is a disciple, the church will follow. Hull's timely, practical discussion explains why discipling is crucial; what being a disciple-making pastor means; misconceptions that discourage discipleship; and how to follow Jesus' teaching methods. Drawing on his experience as a pastor, Hull equips church leaders to build healthy Christians who will obey Christ's mandate to make disciples.
From the Back Cover
Equipping laborers for the harvest
Christ commanded the church to make disciples, to produce people who love and obey God, bear fruit, and live with joy. The crisis at the heart of the church is that we often pay lip service to making disciples, but we seldom put much effort behind doing it. For the pastor who is ready to put words into action, The Disciple-Making Pastor offers the inspiration and practical know-how to do so.
Bill Hull shows pastors the obstacles they will face, what disciples really look like, the pastor's role in producing them, and the practices that lead to positive change. He also offers a six-step coaching process to help new disciples grow in commitment and obedience, and practical ideas to integrate disciple making into the fabric of the church.
"Bill Hull tells us the truth about church life and its leadership--biblically, courageously, and intelligently. I have no doubt that this is the best book available on disciple making and disciple development in the contemporary church. And this is the single most important issue now facing the church worldwide."--Dallas Willard, author, The Divine Conspiracy and Renovation of the Heart; professor of philosophy, University of Southern California, Los Angeles
"Here is a message men and women aspiring to church leadership need to hear and ponder."--from the foreword by Robert E. Coleman
"If we are going to see Christians in this country reflect Christ's values, we need to get back to serious biblical discipleship. The pastor is the key to this effort. Bill Hull's book is the best work I've read on this issue. It is must-reading for every pastor and seminary student in our land."--Ron Jensen, president, High Ground

Bill Hull is a champion of biblical discipleship, Feb 5 2008
By Dennis McCallum - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Disciple-Making Pastor, The: Leading Others on the Journey of Faith (Paperback)
Hull never strays into unbiblical "shepherding" theories of discipleship. He consistently develops a cogent argument for how pastors should forget about entertaining people and set about equipping their members for ministry.
Unlike his more general works on disciple making, this title is geared towards leaders. Hull begins by stressing the importance of discipleship, challenging the traditionalist view that the pastor is the only one capable of doing important ministry. Later he focuses on how pastors can coach their people toward a successful multiplication ministry.
