REPLICATION ESSENTIALS Powered by Mercy Alliance A weekly touchpoint for those answering God’s call to make disciples who make disciples. Roy’s Been Writing. Have You Been Reading? There’s a conversation happening that you don’t want to miss. Every week, Roy Moran has been publishing on Substack — not polished press releases or ministry announcements, but real, unfiltered thinking about what it actually takes to see disciples multiply. The kind of writing that comes from decades in the field, not a conference stage. Topics like:
This isn’t theory. It’s the kind of thinking that changes how you lead — this week, in your context, with the people in front of you. How to Use This as a Leader This is worth being practical about. Here’s how to get the most out of Roy’s Substack as a tool for your team:
Step 1 — Read one post a week. Don’t try to consume everything at once. Pick one post, read it slowly, and sit with the question it raises. Roy writes to provoke thinking, not just inform it. Step 2 — Bring it to your team. Take the core idea into your next team meeting, coaching circle, or Discovery Group debrief. Ask: “Where do we see this in our own context? What would we need to change?” Step 3 — Let it surface the real conversation. Roy’s writing has a way of naming things leaders feel but haven’t said out loud — the frustration, the plateau, the nagging sense that something isn’t working. Use it as permission to have the honest conversation your team needs. Step 4 — Apply one thing. Every post has a practical implication. Don’t just read and move on. Ask: “What is one thing we will do differently this week because of this?” Obedience over information — always. Step 5 — Share it. If a post hits you, send it to one other leader. That’s how ideas become movements — one conversation at a time. Start Here — 3 Posts Worth Your Time This Week Not sure where to begin? Start with these: 1.
