About this listen
For assistance with ordering the book go to replicate ministries site. This audiobook has the potential to change your life!
I think I'm a lot like you. There was a time in my life when I wanted to grow in my faith but just didn't know how.
I owned a Bible, but didn't understand it.
- I heard others pray, but didn't know how to communicate with God.
- I wanted to share my faith with others, but didn't know where to start.
- I had friends at Church, but lacked deep relationships with anyone.
- I wanted to hide God's word in my heart, but lacked a plan for memorization.
- I read the Scriptures, but didn't know how to apply them.
Maybe this is where you are today.
One day, my life changed forever. What was the turning point? I realized the importance and power of discipleship. Two men took the time to invest in my life (David Platt - author of Radical and Follow Me, as well as the foreword of my book - and Tim Lafleur). Since then, I have read nearly every book on discipleship, searching for answers to my questions.
Now, I want to share my findings with you. Growing Up takes the guesswork out of growing closer to the Lord and equipping others to do the same. This book has the potential to change your life!
In Growing Up, you will learn:
- Three essential relationships every believer must be fostering;
- How to begin, lead, and reproduce a D-Group (i.e., discipleship group)
- Why a D-Group of three to five is more effective than an one-on-one relationship
- A proven method for hearing from God
- One spiritual discipline that every disciple should be practicing
- Six questions every believer must be able to answer
- The difference between an addition and multiplication strategy
- Answers to commonly asked questions about disciple-making
- And much, much more!
Do not listen to this book and then discard it. As a manual for making disciples, Growing Up is a resource that you can use for years to come.
- Underline in it.
- Write in the margins.
- Interact with it.
- Meditate on it.
How can I promise that this book will change your life?
- This book is built on solid biblical principles. God's Word, which he promised would never return void, imparts faith and produces a life change.
- These principles have been tried and tested over the past decade in various discipleship groups.
- My life has been impacted immensely through disciplining relationships. I share my story of how God radically saved me from a life of drugs and alcohol in chapter one.

Story
In Recovered, pastor and author Robby Gallaty tells the story of how God radically saved him from his addictions and called him into a life of discipleship. Robby grew up in a very religious Catholic family who attended church every Sunday and confession on Saturday if needed. Very rarely did he miss a Saturday night dinner and a movie with his parents and sister Lori. You can imagine how devastated they were when Robby stole $15,000 from them to fuel his drug addiction.

Story
The good news of Jesus doesn't stop the moment we get saved. In fact, salvation is only the beginning of God's work in our lives. We often view salvation as the ending point; it's really the beginning point. The gospel of Jesus doesn't only justify us; it sanctifies us. When we receive the Holy Spirit at salvation, an incredible work begins to happen in us: we begin to bear fruit. When we are firmly planted in the gospel and committed to growing in Christ, He produces in us the fruits of the Spirit, the marks of a true Christian.

Story
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.

If God is holy, then he can’t sin. If God can’t sin, then he can’t sin against you. If he can’t sin against you, shouldn’t that make him the most trustworthy being there is? Best-selling author Jackie Hill Perry, in her much anticipated follow-up to Gay Girl, Good God, helps us find the reason we don’t trust God - we misunderstand his holiness. In Holier Than Thou, Jackie walks us through Scripture, shaking the dust off of “holy” as we’ve come to know it and revealing it for what it really is: good news.

You’ve tried it all―saying the right words and prayers, reading the right Bible verses―but nothing seems to work. What do you do when your faith doesn’t seem to be “working” anymore? Ashley Morgan Jackson is no stranger to this kind of spiritual exhaustion and discouragement. Much like the biblical character Jacob, Ashley wrestled with God, trying desperately to keep trusting Him despite her pain. It was here she found that sometimes God requires us to hold on to Him so we can let go of everything holding us back.

So many of us struggle with prayer. Many books have been written on the subject and there’s a reason for that. Prayer comes hard to most of us in most seasons. And when we do pray, we often don't know what to say. What is it that my Father loves to hear about? What are the best things I could pray for my family, my church, and myself? This short book by renowned Bible teacher Alistair Begg combines warmth, clarity, humor, and practicality as he examines Paul’s prayers for his friends in the church in Ephesus.

These distractions and hardships are there as a test of our faith, and it's only natural to start asking questions. Why am I being tested? Is this what God wants from me?

Great narration for a solid book.
Terrific and easily understood narration for a great study and training book for new D-Group development.
I still would recommend having the physical book on hand to look at and just using this Audible release as an accompaniment. The reference notes, charts, and ability to take note in the book are great tools so if you must choose to only have one copy, I'd strongly advise getting the physical book.
If, like myself, you also struggle to find time and attention to just sit and read the book on your own, then this Audible reading is a wonderful addition to have.

Exciting Plan Poor Narration
I enjoyed the book, believe in the program, am motivated to begin the plan he talks about. I did not like the narrator. The inflection is distracting to me. He maybe trying to sound soothing but it is very irritating.
