The Bonhoeffer Project: Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail
Discipling others requires intentionality and tenacity. The culture around us has many ways to discourage us from continuing in the difficult, and valuable, work of discipling others to maturity in Christ.

Navigators Church Ministries: The Foundation of a Disciplemaking Culture
Foundation building is step #1 in your church’s disciple making process. Churches that make disciples without building the foundation are depending on an upside-down pyramid to stand firm.

This session focuses on how to build a foundation that will support the weight of disciple making in your church.

SmallCircle: To Create a Disciple-Making Culture, We’ve Got to Get Everyday People in the Game ... and Here’s How
The disciple-making challenge of the Great Commission has no exemptions — every Christ follower is included. But how do we make this a reality in our local church where Truck Driver Ted and Soccer Mom Sally, everyday people, are confident to make disciples? The responsibility falls to leaders to equip — that is, to provide equipment. The only way to create a culture of disciple-making in your local church is if you have a strategy that includes Ted and Sally, everyday people. This session provides real tools (printed and mobile app) specifically designed for the everyday person to be involved in disciple-making at an in-depth level. The great thing is that you can download these tools at no charge and you’ll be equipped to launch them right away.
