Too many churches celebrate short-term wins while quietly losing the next generation. Programs look successful, but faith fades when life gets hard. You want disciples who endure, not just attend.\u00a0In Backward Discipleship<\/em>, Ron Hunter Jr. shows why lasting faith requires a different approach: starting with the end in mind and planning backward. Drawing on Scripture, research, and decades of ministry leadership, this book exposes why forward-driven discipleship often fails and how generational faith is actually formed. This book becomes your guide to building resilient disciples through aligned church and home practices, intentional mentoring, and measurable spiritual formation. When you stop reacting to the moment and start planning for the future, you can cultivate disciples\u2014and churches\u2014that last for generations.<\/div>\n
