The Disciple Making Way: Living From The Life Of Jesus

As presented at Annual Conference 2012, The Disciple Making Way is the proclamation and process of abundant love; the full abundance of God’s love and a life that seeks God in all things.  The Disciple Making Way continues in 2016 as a major facet of Connectional Ministries.  Shift Congregational Coaching is now the primary vehicle we are using to facilitate the Disciple Making Way.  Shift - Effective Ministry

The Disciple Making Way is intended to guide a congregation to answer for themselves the “what do I do now” question of persons seeking to grow in Christ. While the answer each congregation gives will be unique to that congregation, there will be some shared values in this process.

In the fall of 2016, The Disciple Making Way will provide the same rich, transformative training, through our continuing process of Shift Coaching. Read more about Shift and information for registration.

The Disciple Making Way will be:Shift - 50 percent experience no love

  • Clear & Unique
  • Intentional
  • Wesleyan
  • Experiential
  • Expecting Growth
  • Looking For & Celebrating Fruit

Disciple-making is the process of seeing people come to faith in Christ, grow in Jesus and then being equipped to go back and help others repeat this process. Disciple making is more than discipleship, which usually defines how to help believers grow. Disciple making is a life-long process of becoming more like Christ and helping others do the same.Shift - Church in the world
