Dr. Johnny Turner's "The Sacred Art: Growing Faithful Disciples in the 21st Century" is a fresh approach for guiding Christians to reclaim the sacred art of discipleship. Turner combines scholarly research and practical insights and stresses the need for discipleship training. It is critical because discipleship is a sacred art. It is sacred because discipleship is part of the Great Commission. Dr. Turner describes how growing faithful disciples can be accomplished in the church, and he invites the church to become totally involved in the process of growing disciples. After reading, you will discover too that discipleship is truly "The Sacred Art." 'Pastor Johnny Turner has given us a practical, 'first things first' approach to deeply important spiritual matters. It is both thought provoking and inspirational.' Jim Cymbala Senior Pastor, The Brooklyn Tabernacle
