Start with Jesus in Your Parish

Start with Jesus in Your Parish - book resources

Serving parishes in her diocese as the Director of New Evangelization, Julianne Stanz has recognized a practical and motivational way to restructure a parish’s mission: start with Jesus. To help you do that, Julianne’s book Start with Jesus is about people, process, and culture, rather than an emphasis on quick fixes or unsustainable efforts.

Embrace discipleship in your parish by reading the book and using the additional resources that accompany it: implementation tools for parish teams and for individuals, a discussion guide, and more. With resources like “Everyday Evangelization,” “Sunday Culture Assessment,” and “Discipleship Review,” getting started in your parish becomes motivating and transformative.

The implementation tools and discussion group helps are available on the book’s webpage: www.loyolapress.com/startwithjesus.
