    About this ebook

    With a post-Christian society looming over the Western horizon, many church leaders and members race for the magic bullet. Ironically, it’s the freedom from this race, made available to us through Jesus, that invites us to embrace an ancient, minimalist approach to discipleship resonating with those who are uninterested in the church. Slow Down is a tangible look at this ancient way for our present time, written by practitioners with years of experience in making disciples, equipping leaders, and forming new church families.
