Real Discipleship Survey Online Now Available

January 25, 2017 Leave a Comment

The Faith Formation Committee of the North Carolina Conference is making available to our churches the Real Discipleship Survey. Based on his book, Shift: Helping Congregations Back Into the Game of Effective Ministry, the survey is an instrument designed by Dr. Phil Maynard to support the development of maturing disciples at both the personal and congregational levels.  It measures the level of maturity in each of six dimensions of discipleship addressed in his book:

  • A Life of Worship
  • A Life of Hospitality
  • A Life Opening to Jesus
  • A Life Obeying Jesus
  • A Life of Service
  • A Life of Generosity

Churches have FREE unlimited access to this survey during 2017.

At the personal level, each participant receives a report indicating the level of maturity for each dimension, possible next steps for growth, and suggested resources for personal development.  It is a powerful tool, particularly when used in a discipleship coaching relationship, for supporting the development of growing disciples.

At the church level, each participant receives the report as described previously.  In addition, the church administrator receives a matrix giving the percentage of persons identifying themselves inn each of the levels of maturity for each dimension.  This is an invaluable resource for discipleship teams in planning for the support of an intentional discipleship process.

More information and PDF downloadable instructions sheets are available on this web page.
