About this listen
Pastors and church leaders want to see lives changed by the gospel. They work tirelessly to care for people, initiate new programs and ministries, preach new sermon series, and keep up with the latest trends. Sadly, it would seem that much of this effort is not resulting in deeply changed disciples.
Why? Because many churches are unknowingly operating from a shallow discipleship that allows people to recycle the same problems year after year. Churchgoers are increasingly passive with lives not distinct from the culture. People are not able to integrate anger and sadness. Many are defensive and incapable of revealing their own weaknesses. Church leaders desperately need a better way of teaching people what it means to follow Jesus in a transformative way.
In Emotionally Healthy Discipleship, best-selling author Pete Scazzero combines three decades of wisdom with hard lessons from his own ministry journey. He lays out what is required for church leaders to multiply deeply changed people who are growing in relationship with God, themselves, and others.
Scazzero begins with four beneath-the-surface, systemic gaps that undermine serious discipleship. He provides a clear vision for a church culture that deeply changes lives and then practically unpacks the seven biblical marks of emotionally healthy discipleship:
- Learn to be before you do
- Follow the crucified, not the Americanized, Jesus
- Receive the gift of limits
- Befriend suffering and loss
- Break the power of the past
- Practice the presence of people
- Lead out of brokenness and vulnerability
Finally, he lays out practical steps for you to create an emotionally healthy discipleship culture that actually has the power to change the world.

Over the last 30 years, many influential church leaders and church planters in America have adopted various models for reaching unchurched people. An “attractional” model will seek to attract people to a local church. Younger leaders may advocate a more “missional” approach, in which believers live and work among unchurched people and intentionally seek to serve like Christ. While each of these approaches have merit, something is still missing, something even more fundamental to the mission of the church: discipleship.

We are at war. Not with a foreign government or domestic terrorists or a creepy new artificial intelligence hell-bent on taking over the world. No, it’s a war we feel deep inside our own chests: we are at war with lies. The problem isn’t so much that we tell lies but that we live them. We let them into our bodies, and they sabotage our peace.

And more important, how do we get them back into our lives? These are the two questions crying out in our streets, homes, churches, and from deep within our souls. Pastor and author Rich Villodas is convinced that only Jesus offers a way of being human that is both strong and tender enough to tear down the walls of hostility we experience daily.

What is the way forward for the church? Tragically, in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches―from Willow Creek to Harvest, from Southern Baptist pastors to Sovereign Grace churches.

There's got to be more to church than this. People around the world are seeking a community that focuses more on others than on themselves. Yet most don't know where to start. Drawing from his own journey, Brandon Hatmaker reminds us that serving the least is not a trendy act of benevolence but a lifestyle of authentic community and spiritual transformation. In Barefoot Church, Brandon offers practical ideas for creating service-based, missional communities and explains how the organizational structure of a church can be created or restructured for mission in any context.

Is real friendship too risky? We live in a world where real friendship is hard to find. Suspicious of others and insecure about ourselves, we retreat into the safety of our small, self-made digital worlds. Tragically, even the church can become a place that reinforces this isolation. Jesus models a much richer vision of friendship. Scott Sauls, pastor and teacher, invites you to see the breadth of Christ's love in this audiobook, Befriend.

In our frenzied culture, the possibility of living in balanced rhythms of work and rest often feels elusive.

Most know they need rest but might be surprised to find within themselves a deep resistance to letting go and resting in God one day a week, let alone for longer seasons of sabbatical.

M. Robert Mulholland Jr. defines spiritual formation as "the process of being formed in the image of Christ for the sake of others." Compact and solid, this definition encompasses the dynamics of a vital Christian life and counters our culture's tendency to make spirituality a trivial matter or reduce it to a private affair between "me and Jesus." In Invitation to a Journey, Mulholland helps Christians new and old understand that we become like Christ gradually, not instantly.

Dan Allender's lyrical book about the Sabbath expels the myriad myths about this "day of rest," starting with the one that paints the Sabbath as a day of forced quiet, spiritual exercises, and religious devotion and attendance. This, he says, is at odds with the ancient tradition of Sabbath as a day of delight for both body and soul. Instead, the only way we can make use of the Sabbath is to see God's original intent for the day with new eyes. In Sabbath, Allender builds a case for delight by looking at this day as a festival that celebrates God's re-creative, redemptive love.

Over the last 30 years, many influential church leaders and church planters in America have adopted various models for reaching unchurched people. An “attractional” model will seek to attract people to a local church. Younger leaders may advocate a more “missional” approach, in which believers live and work among unchurched people and intentionally seek to serve like Christ. While each of these approaches have merit, something is still missing, something even more fundamental to the mission of the church: discipleship.

Definitely recommend
I definitely recommend this book for the insights it has on how the Christian Church has often presented discipleship in a way that is contrary to healthy emotional maturity as well as how to foster emotional maturity and health. Three small complaints about the work:
1. So many lists. Lists with sublists. I appreciate how this can organize the material, but by the end I got a bit tired of another list.
2. Most of the examples given in the book follow the example of "This person started being more emotionally healthy, and as a result their ministry grew/marriage was saved/etc." At the end, the author acknowledges how, when he used to give talks at conferences, he only told the "successful" stories. It feels like he fell into that in this book as well. I would suspect there are also stories of the person who tried practicing emotionally healthier behavior and their marriage still fell apart or their ministry disbanded. Stories of the parishioner or staff member who refused to get on board. The stories in this book seem to unintentionally foster the idea that practicing emotionally healthy discipleship is a way to be successful according to a worldly definition of success.
3. He speaks a lot of ministry to people of different races and socioeconomic backgrounds. He speaks of working with people of differing political affiliations and of working with people of different religions. I support all of this. But with all this talk of appreciating people's diversity, he omits any reference to people of differing sexuality or gender identity, in a way that seems like it is more than just an accidental omission. I was a bit disappointed by this.

Exceptional
This life is not marked by a 5 star performance. This book gives guidance and direction to a persons soul. An award or book does not make its way to our Creator. The only way to everlasting life if through Jesus. This book keeps it simple in terms of understanding the Bible.

Very solid book!
We cannot be spiritually mature if we are not first emotionally mature. This books lays a wonderful foundation and provides some amazing tools and info for exactly that!
