Most churches don't struggle for lack of vision-they struggle to build teams that can carry it. The Intentional Church Team is a practical guide to shaping a church culture where discipleship isn't just a class or a system, but a living journey that starts on Sunday and moves people into a life on mission.
In this field-tested book, Dr. Craig Smee unpacks how to move people through the stages of discipleship- from first-time guests to fully engaged disciple-makers-by creating an intentional culture that breathes purpose into every step. Drawing on biblical patterns, real stories, and decades of pastoral experience, Craig shows you how to:
Build teams that steward people's spiritual journey, not just Sunday tasks
Foster a culture of invitation, ownership, and mission
Equip leaders to notice, nurture, and mobilize others
Use practical tools like the Discipleship Circle to guide growth without losing the heart
Whether you're a pastor, team leader, or passionate volunteer, this book will help you build a church that doesn't just gather crowds-but shapes lives that shape others. Because Sunday is only the beginning.
