How do we stop creating church customers and start making dedicated disciples?

So much to ponder and pray about.\u201d \u2013 Krista C.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a great book. It covers issues I\u2019ve wrestled with for years. I started teaching a men\u2019s Bible class tonight using this book. A huge amount of interest. Ran out of books, have to order more.\u201d \u2013 Steve F.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am loving this book! My husband and I are studying it together and it has been so rewarding. We bought a copy for our son who preaches and he is gaining so much from it as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAn excellent read, lots of things to ponder, but much more importantly than that there is much we need to put into practice. Leaning on God together, deepening relationships as the body of Christ and prayerfully moving forward as we\u2019re led by the Spirit.\u201d \u2013 Jason K.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#a8170a&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#a8170a&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Read a free excerpt<\/h2>\n<p>Most of us don\u2019t remember learning how to speak. At some point, we started with one word and have continued learning words and how to use them ever since. We learned from an early age that if we want to understand what\u2019s happening around us and help others understand us, we need to communicate accurately through our choice of words.<\/p>\n<p>But what if we were to learn a word incorrectly? In that case, we would continue to think of and use the word incorrectly until someone corrected us or until we came across an example of it being used properly. For example, in her early speaking days my toddler often excitedly referred to orange as \u201capp-poes!\u201d After a few weeks of corrections\u2014 \u201cNo, this is an orange and that is an apple\u201d\u2014she came to understand that apples are green and red and taste a certain way, while oranges are, well, orange and taste much differently. If we hadn\u2019t said anything she\u2019d still be calling them by the wrong names.<\/p>\n<p>Is it possible this is what happened to us with the word \u201cchurch\u201d? Did our understanding of what church means come from the Bible, or from the picture we were given as children or as new converts? When we talk about the church, are we referring to it the same way God intended, or are we calling oranges apples?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tampaseo.expert\/focus\/2020\/10\/06\/church-reset-introduction\/\">Click here to read the rest of the Introduction<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#a8170a&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|true&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>Study Church Reset with your church family!<\/h2>\n<p>A number of congregations have been using Church Reset in their Bible classes and small group studies.
