Off-road disciplines : spiritual adventures of missional leaders
In Off-Road Disciplines, Earl Creps reveals that the on-road practices of prayer and Bible reading should be bolstered by the other kinds of encounters with God that occur unexpectedly-complete with the bumps and bruises that happen when you go "off-road." Becoming an off-road leader requires the cultivation of certain spiritual disciplines that allow the presence of the Holy Spirit to arrange your interior life. Earl Creps explores twelve central spiritual disciplines-six personal and six organizational-that Christian leaders of all ages and denominations need if they are to change themselves and their churches to reach out to the culture around them
