Having a hard time telling others about how discipleship can change their lives? I highly recommend this read! I’m on chapter 3 and already have had so many “ah ha” moments! In fact, it’s also helping me think through how to better train disciple-makers. Written by a business consultant and coach for small businesses, its lessons are discovery based! (Generally the best way to learn in my opinion). So far I have realized that I can sometimes get into the habit of just expecting people to want the Gospel, discipleship, Lifegroup, etc., because it is so amazing. But actually, it could really help people “connect the dots” by simply highlighting the “urgent and compelling” benefits for people, moreso than what might be considered the “eternal and convicting” truths of why we need Jesus. I mean, a seed is a seed, so both ways are great. But I think the techniques I’m learning in this book help to shew away people’s distractions, break through the hype, and clear some of their worries out of the way, so that the seed falls right in their patch of soft, receptive, and good soil. I’ll keep posting new treasures I find as I read through the rest, and you can join me if you like with #discipleshipsolid //#discipleship #4soils #findingpeopleofpeace #makingdisciples #disciplemaking #sandystoriesblog #missions #businessasmissions

    Our Story

    God called Tawni to Thailand during a mountain top experience. Her training school had planted a church in Chiang Mai and was nearing the end of their trip. The team retreated to Doi Suthep's viewpoint for prayer over the city. As she gazed out over the lush Northern province, a voice began speaking to her heart, "Will you give your life for my people here?"

    These were our dating days.

    Meanwhile I was in Mongolia working with youth, teaching city kids about prayer, worship, and evangelism. God had given me the gift of evangelism, and regardless of language or hemisphere, God would put soft people in my path. While in Ulaanbaatar, for example, I was run down by a young man asking if I could tell him about Jesus. Mongolians aren't known for their hunger for God, but God is known for sending missionaries to hungry people, wherever they are.

    When Tawni told me she felt God was calling her to Thailand, it hardly surprised me. What has surprised me, however, is just about every step since we moved.

    Mike and Tawni now have three children, all of whom were born in Thailand. They attend Life Church in Bang Na and recently celebrated five years overseas.
