Discipleship isn't a ministry of the church; it is THE ministry of the church.
THE Discipleship Conference defines what it is to be a disciple and what it means to make disciples who make disciples by instilling disciple-making in every ministry. Participants will have access to training in biblical discipleship as well as the tools necessary to implement discipleship within a variety of ministries.

SATURDAY BREAKOUTS
Each Topic Will Be Offered During Each of The Three Breakout Sessions​
The Discipleship Toolbelt:
Discipleship is a process that moves at varying speeds but has tangible outcomes. This session introduces participants to basic tools and strategies for initial discipleship and what steps to take next.
Cross-Cultural Connections:
Muslim and Hindu women in your community often live within an insulated bubble (to keep others at a distance). Learn creative ways to make connections with the intent of sharing the love of Jesus.
Family Discipleship:
If you have ever thought that discipling within your family was too hard, this breakout is for you! Come see how to include discipleship in everyday situations.
Cross-Cultural Communication:
Knowing a few simple, effective communication bridges helps us get from "hello" to sharing the gospel when encountering Hindus and Muslims in our communities. What to do next is important too.
Discipleship in Outreach:
We need to show love with our works and be ready with our words. This breakout focuses on transitioning from demonstrating God's love to declaring the good news and making disciples.
Discipling in Crisis:
When tragedy strikes, and it will, discipleship can become much more complicated. This session teaches important perspectives and skills that help you disciple people in crisis more effectively.
