BECOME A FRIEND:

Friendships are important because they provide emotional support, reduce feelings of loneliness, and enhance overall well-being. They also help reduce feelings of isolation, lower stress levels, and improve life satisfaction. Through friendships we are able to experience more fulfillment. Lives are enriched by providing a sense of belonging and purpose and by sharing challenging and joyful moments together. How can you become a friend of the ministry?

You may also request to go through personalized discipleship training sessions in one of three formats. You can request a “Concise” two-hour overview of the entire disciple making process, a “Condensed” twelve-hour review of kep disicple making principles, or a “Complete” twenty-four hour in-depth study of the tools and keys used for self-sustaining disciple-making movements.
