Along with serving as a pastor, Robby is the founder of Replicate Ministries and the author of several great books (a few of those will be listed here in our show notes). Listen in to be encouraged and challenged, as you hear a memorable conversation about Robby’s past, how you should intentionally invest in the right people, and following the example of Jesus in leading your church to make disciples.

Check out Replicate Ministries for some great online resources that will help you and your church make disciple-makers.
