Fish Prison

"With decades of on-the-ground leadership in local churches, Doug Dees offers a lifetime of wisdom on making fully formed followers of Jesus. Beyond a weekend seminar, beyond a program, he argues disciple-making is a relational, messy, life commitment that follows the footsteps and model of Jesus. With a rich theological outlook and practical application, I have learned much from Doug. Highly recommended!" -- Dr Heath A Thomas, President and Professor of Old Testament, Oklahoma Baptist University
"Doug Dees has written an amazing, fun, helpful, and healing book. In one extended metaphor, Dees shows how there can be no jailed Jesus. We try to jail Jesus in church. We try to jail Jesus in doctrine, or in rituals, or in a nation or denomination. But you can't jail Jesus, and this is the best 'Get Out of Jail Free' card I've ever read." -- Leonard Sweet, Best-selling author of over 70 books, Charles Wesley Distinguished Professor of Doctoral Studies at Evangelical Seminary, Distinguished Visiting Professor at Tabor College, George Fox University, Drew University, Founder, Spirit Venture Ministries and The Salish Sea Press
"My dear friend Doug does a great job helping all of us understand the struggle in the modern church of accomplishing the great commission. I appreciate his transparency in the journey, along with giving hope that the church can get out of Fish Prison." -- Brandon Guindon, Lead Pastor, RealLifeTexas.org, Author, Disciple Making Culture, Co-author, Real Life DiscipleshipTraining Manual
