You move into a city carrying a burden for the harvest — and almost immediately the scale overwhelms you. Where do you start?

Ecosystem mapping is one team's answer: a practice of drawing an honest circle around the relationships, spaces, and rhythms where God has currently given you influence, and asking what He is doing there.

Everyone loves the idea of unity, but the devil is often in the details.

Ryan suggests some ‘low hanging’ ways to move toward existing churches and harvest movements as teammates, each carrying a different part of the same assignment in our cities.

Perhaps living out unity can be simple.

One Sunday morning taxi ride. A driver's simple question to migrant workers led to a year of discipleship.

What it reveals about trusting the Word to do the work, multiplication, and letting go.

Spiritual mapping helps build a picture of the spiritual terrain beneath a people group: the lies they believe, the wounds they carry, the patterns passing between generations.

When our prayer gets coordinates, we move from general intercession to strategic ground-taking.

Years of faithful and fruitful cell leadership… and a long-running spiritual restlessness.

Urban DMM Research Report: Multiplication from the Margins

Multiplying disciples often begins not with the capable and connected, but among the broken and overlooked. The margins are not just a place to serve. They may be where everything starts.

Monoculture’s biggest advantage is high efficiency and scale. But did we know that it is also very fragile?

One practitioner discusses the insights to disciple-making that were hidden in a farming documentary and what happens when harvest workers embrace complexity.

Cities scatter us. The communal heart of the Great Commission may feel out of reach. But what if the problem isn't commitment — it's that we're holding a fixed picture of what "going together" has to look like?

Four approaches from Asian cities suggest there may be more options than we think.

Can strong conviction become an obstacle to disciple-making movements? Might our tone and posture shut doors before relationships ever get a chance to open?

A practitioner reflects on his experiences in the urbanised west.

Relational authenticity isn’t a performance. When leaders drop the fig leaves, something opens in community.

A practitioner reflects on what genuine honesty between generations actually builds.

Urban DMM Research Report: The Discipleship Gap

Most of us know how to discuss a passage of Scripture. We're far less practiced at obeying it — and by Thursday, the Sunday sermon has often faded into good intention. What would it look like if ordinary believers, in ordinary places, were expected not just to understand God's word together, but to act on it before they met again?

A young man stranded in Kabul told the missionary who'd spent weeks with him: "I really like your Jesus, but I can't stand you."

That line has stayed with Marko for years — and it gets at a potentially uncomfortable reality. The lack of harvest in our cities may not be from a lack of care or vision. It may be because we never stopped to ask what we needed to become.

The same Spirit, working across wildly different cities. Practitioners from East Asia to Central Asia keep reporting the same patterns — brokenness opening doors, simple obedience producing fruit, youth moving without waiting for permission.

These aren't coincidences, and they aren't models to copy. They're fingerprints. What does it mean when God's methods look this consistent across such diverse contexts?

Have you ever felt the pressure to pack the entire gospel into one coffee session? Let’s look more closely at the message that Jesus asked the disciples to share and how “showing” one bit at a time could be more powerful than “telling”.

Evangelism may seem intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be. What if we just need to start conversations instead?

We know that it doesn’t have to be all work and no joy. But how do we “get” or “find” joy? There is a reliable pathway. Join me on this journey… joy is just down the road.

What else is left to do?

In the final article of this current series, David shares a critical step that sets up his team to keep learning and growing in effectiveness.

The joy was drying up… there was a disconnect between what David and his team were living and what they were trying to sow.

They needed to take stock and recalibrate. What did they learn?
