Lifestyle Disciple Making

multiply Disciple Makers

Disciple makers equip and train Christ followers and release them to go make disciples who make disciples, who make disciples. (Multiplying disciple makers.) This empowers the church to be the church and fulfill the Great Commission. Matthew 28:18-20; 2 Timothy 2:1-2

We came across this video a few years ago that paints a good picture of our Lifestyle Disciple Making ministry.

equip and train

A Disciple Maker walks 1-2 Christ Followers of the same gender through the Lifestyle Disciple Making training. Individuals learn how to build an intimate relationship with God, develop godly relationships with one another and represent Christ wherever they are, whatever they are doing and however life is treating them. They also learn how to become Disciple Makers who multiply Disciple Makers.

Build Intimacy with God

Individuals spend 10-15 minutes each day with the Lord reading the assigned scripture and following the Lifestyle Disciple Making training instructions. During this time, they build an intimate relationship with God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

Develop Godly Relationships

The Disciple Making Group meets weekly in person, by phone or online for 60-90 minutes. The group meeting can occur Monday through Saturday at any time of the day. During this time, individuals receive training, discuss insight from the assigned scripture reading, pray for one another and encourage each other. Godly relationships of respect, trust, love, investment and accountability are developed with one another.

Represent Christ as a Lifestyle

Once a month, during the weekly meeting, Christ Followers are trained to be harvest workers for the Lord. They are instructed on how to minister to people they come into contact with, share with individuals how the Lord has impacted their life and invite people to do what they are doing. Christ Followers are also trained to lead, facilitate and start Disciple Making Groups. Representing Christ wherever you are, whatever you are doing and however life is treating you, is embraced during this time.

Multiply Disciple Makers

When Christ Followers have completed the Lifestyle Disciple Maker training, they are sent out to start a new Disciple Making Group. They are also invited to participate in the ongoing training and support for Disciple Makers.
