I'm interested in reading a book on discipleship. Specifically something that will give examples of how we can be the hands and feet of Jesus. A how to book about servanthood. Suggestions?
They don't involve the exact term discipleship in the description or title, but there are two I can think of that give many examples of being the hands and feet.
Both by Shane Claiborne:
The Irresistible Revolution, and
Jesus for President
I thought they were both great reads, and they both have dozens of examples of living out our faith.
The Irresistible Revolution is a GREAT book.. and even if it doesn't flat out give you a plan of how to be the hands and feet of Christ, it will get your brain spinning.

Discipleship Essentials: A Guide to Building Your Life in Christ by Greg Ogden
(as one Amazon reviewer said" Living out Christianity is not "purpose" driven but "process" driven: Matt 28:19-20 declares the process is "make disciples" ), so please avoid the atrocious "fad -book" Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren where he used 17 different Bible versions to come up with HIS doctrine!
