I'm grateful for his contribution to our understanding of the qualities that God cultivates in his servants that can contribute to movements that are reaching the world for Jesus Christ.DR. DAVID GARRISON, author, Church Planting MovementsAs a disciple-making movement practitioner and catalyst in many places, I have observed what Emanuel Prinz shares with us in his book. This book is a treasure for those who want to start, multiply, and sustain disciple-making movements in many places. I'm sure as you pursue God's purpose in making disciples, the lessons, ideas, and experiences shared in this book will change your approach to ministry and help you launch sustainable disciple-making movements.DR. AILA TASSE, founder, Lifeway Global; regional director, East/Southern Africa, New Generations Emanuel Prinz leaves no stone unturned, is deeply thoughtful, and always attempts to stay close to the biblical text and the facts on the ground. You will be better for having submitted yourself to Prinz's careful analysis, unbounded mind, and soft heart. That trilogy makes him dangerous to your thinking.ROY MORAN, chairman, board of directors, New Generations; author, Spent MatchesThis book will help you know where to start. It is timely and beneficial in our work at Experience Life. We all would do well to pay attention.CHRIS GALANOS, founding pastor,
