How can an ordinary church grow disciples who live their whole lives as followers of Jesus? Disciples whose faith shapes their attitudes as neighbours, colleagues and family members?

Our time in church needs to equip us to be salt and light in our time out there. Drawn from the hard-won lessons of the Imagine project, this book offers help and hope from churches which have begun to do just that:

• Lessons from three years' work with pilot churches
• Practical ideas for your church
• Real-life stories of churches and individuals

It doesn't offer quick fixes. There aren't any. Instead, it offers new hope and little changes which change everything.

Commendations

'If you are looking for some quick fixes to make your church better, you won’t find them here. (They don’t exist.) The purpose of this book is to turn your church inside out.'

- from the foreword by Graham Cray, Archbishops’ Missioner, Leader of the Fresh Expressions team

'The idea of whole-life discipleship could hardly be more important. This stimulating book is both thoughtful and immensely practical. I highly recommend it to anyone with a leadership role.'

- Stephen Gaukroger, Clarion Trust

'Beautifully engaging, elegantly simple, gloriously practical. This isn’t a seven-step programme, but a traveller’s guide for a great journey - the transformation of church culture to whole-life disciple-making. I hope and pray many will use it.'

- James Lawrence, CPAS
