Reproducing Grace Joe Filer

This book is a manual for disciple-making, that leads to a church plant movement The purpose of this book is to see Free Grace churches planted that multiply into regional Free Grace Movements. Freedom Church Movement, the ministry publishing this book, is an underground, grass roots, discipleship network centered around God's Grace and Freedom in Jesus. We are a New Testament Free Grace church movement whose goal is to start a "Reproducing Grace Movement" in every state in the U. S. Just as a strawberry plant grows and spreads "runners" which then root and grow new plants, we aim to plant free grace churches that grow and plant other free grace churches. We strive to encourage, train, and coach for regional impact, which ultimately leads to national impact. Our vision is to see grace-centered movements started in every state in the nation that reproducing grace exponentially. This book is written with that vision and purpose in mind. The main focus of the book is sharing the Gospel of Grace: gathering believers together to disciple them through the teaching of God's Word; recognizing their gifts; helping them learn how to use them; recognizing leaders and training them to make disciples. This book follows the ten stages that Paul used in the book of Acts. It's organic and definitely not a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Paul's ten stages are broken down in this book and walk you through planting in your region, and asks questions to get the planter to think about their culture.
