So many conferences and so little Jesus-like disciplemaking


So many leadership, church growth, and church planting conferences.

So many conference junkies seeking their next fix.

So little Jesus-like disciplemaking.

Ever wonder why?

We're hoping we can get to the MN conference next weekend...if not, we'll be praying for you and the group to hear what you have to say and use it in their lives!
We read your blog all the time and keep your team in prayer!
Have a wonderful God-filled week!

Thanks for the resource, it's definitely making me dissect and rethink a lot of stuff. The bubble gum illustration really drove the point home.

There’s a lot of talk about disciplemaking these days. But what does disciplemaking  really  look like for you in your everyday real life? That's what we'll explore together.

Session 2 Who Makes Disciples (D2) Following Jesus isn’t a subject to be mastered, but an infectious way of life that is lived together and shared with others. Session 3 Who Make More Disciples (D3) If those we disciple don’t make more disciples, then we haven’t made disciples like Jesus. When?
