Lead Pastor of National Community Church

After spending five years in Chicago getting a theological education, Brad Brucker and his wife, Ann, set out to plant a church in Oregon. While they had great success drawing people to Christ, after five years, Brad realized something was wrong - deep, life-transforming devotion to Christ was not sweeping through his congregation as hoped. A personal retreat of solitude up high in the Oregon Cascades began an eight year refining process of searching the scriptures, fasting, prayer and reading books by other church leaders who desired to fulfill the Great Commission, but like Brad, were also somehow missing it. It became a huge passionate and persistent Holy Spirit nag on Brad's heart.

GROW is the fruit of that refining process. It's a focused map to guide spiritual seekers and believers to become fully devoted followers of Jesus. GROW meets you and your church where you're at and shows you how to achieve key milestones along the spiritual journey of discipleship. With GROW, you and your church can experience the life-changing power of being transformed into fruit-bearing disciples of Jesus Christ. Begin the journey and prepare for a level of spiritual growth and maturity you always hoped for!
