It's not all that surprising - the most effective way to make disciples is to build on your network of friends and relatives. Throughout the history of the church, this method has been the most successful in leading people to faith in Christ and membership in the church. In this updated edition, the father and son team of Win and Charles Arn offer nine church-centered principles to help you identify the people in your network and learn how to reach them. The authors encourage Christians to focus on disciple-making as part of their lifestyle instead of using scripted approaches to sharing the gospel. Whether you are a church leader or a congregation member, this approach is the most effective avenue for witnessing because it: provides a natural framework for sharing the Good News, makes people more receptive to the gospel, results in more effective assimilation of converts into the church, tends to win families, and provides a constantly enlarging source of contacts.
