The global church is facing a discipleship crisis. Here's how we move forward into transformative discipleship...

Traditional discipleship strategies fail because they only address surface issues and do not go deep enough into the emotional health of individuals.
But transformative, emotionally healthy discipleship is a methods-based biblical theology that, when fully implemented, informs every area of a church, ministry, or organization. It is a discipleship structure built from the center that:
In Emotionally Healthy Discipleship, bestselling author Pete Scazzero takes leaders step-by-step through how to create an emotionally healthy culture and multiply deeply-changed people in every aspect of church life, including:
Complete with assessments and practical strategies, Emotionally Healthy Discipleship will help you move people to the beneath-the-surface discipleship that actually has the power to change the world.

'There is so much to like in Peter Scazzero's Emotionally Healthy
Discipleship--he pushes against the 'let's get 'er done' approach
to measuring discipleship and advocates instead a slowed-down
be-with-God measure to following Jesus. What I like most is his
emphasis on getting to know the crucified Jesus and ridding
ourselves of the Americanized Jesus.'
* Scot McKnight, Northern Seminary; author of Jesus Creed

'There may be no more important pastoral and prophetic voice for
church leaders in this cultural moment than Pete and Geri Scazzero
and the work of emotionally healthy discipleship.'
* Todd Wilson, CEO and cofounder, Exponential *
'This is a book that must be read by the church, a word that has to
get out. The world is becoming urban and multi-ethnic, and this
book shows us the way to build healthy and effective churches in
those communities.'
* John M. Perkins, author of One Blood: Parting Words to the
Church on Race and Love *
