| What Pastors and Leaders are Saying |
Church Smart CEO David Wetzler
"Simple Discipleship is particularly suited for many Southern Baptist churches because
their Natural Church Development minimum factor is most often 'effective structures.'
Simple Discipleship provides the tools to improve a church's effective structures."
Church Smart editor, Dana Adams for Simple Discipleship: "Three main strengths 1)
very well organized practical how-to for discipleship, and 2) written for today's church
with today's challenges, and 3) based on up-to-date-research.
Glenn Williams, Pastor, Paper Mill Baptist Church, Marietta, GA
"Thank you for all you have done to help us and get us moving forward with direction,
purpose, and vision."
Dr. J. Perry Fowler, Pastor, First Baptist Church Kennesaw, GA
"I believe Simple Discipleship has helped us connect our evangelistic focus to a more
Great Commission focus which obviously is about winning and discipling. Also, it has
made our people more aware of "where we are" as disciples. It helps me in leading the
church so I can help move the church to a more balanced discipleship focus."

Dr. Nelson Price, Pastor Emeritus, Roswell St. Baptist Church, Marietta, GA
Immaturity of Christians is a cause for conflict within churches and a failure to reach out to
the unchurched. These dual challenges are addressed by “Simple Discipleship.” Fledgling
Christians need nurturing in order to become stable and mature. Implementation of the
steps espoused in SD can enable them to have the joy of their salvation and become more
productive followers of Christ. Arrested spiritual development among persons who have long
been Christians but who have reached a point of arrested spiritual growth is a problem
needing to be addressed. This work proposes ways to renew the personal appetites of long
time believers for further maturation. A church comprised of immature new and long time
spiritually dormant Christians is a fertile field for Satanic disruption. Not only are the
members not on task their energies are turned inward providing for an inevitable implosion.
SD is a life-support system for churches. The concepts are definitive and measurable.
However, there is a little known secret of success in all of life. It is this: “Nothing works.” This
program will not work. You have to work it. If worked the result is a potentially renewed
church comprised of confident and fulfilled Christians. It is to be commended as a method of
permeating the life-style of individuals and putting the total church on task. (3/16/2009)

"Far too many believers have never been discipled, and too few
churches are prepared to address this problem. Tom Cocklereece has
proposed not a program, but a process that drives discipleship into the
DNA of a congregation. Read this book, work the ideas for your church,
and start making disciples!" 5/10/2009
