Dhati Lewis equips church planters and city leaders to make disciples amid urban density and diversity, and to stand with their neighbors as advocates.
In December 2007, I joined twenty-five others in a commitment to move from Denton, Texas, to Atlanta to plant Blueprint Church. We put down roots in the Old Fourth Ward, the neighborhood Boulevard runs through, a street with a proud history and some of our city's hardest stories.
I wrote Among Wolves because I believe the people who will make disciples in our cities are already living in them. They need to be trained where they are, among their own neighbors. If you lead in a dense, diverse place, a block, a campus, a congregation, you are welcome here. Read, listen, and bring your questions.
Dhati“My prayer is that my generation will be the last generation of urban practitioners forced to leave the urban context in order to be discipled.”
