Not disciple makers.
Disciple maker-makers.
Ralph Moore shares why we have to push the mission beyond what we can see inside the four walls of our church — and into the cracks and crannies of society.
That's where the movement goes next.

The classroom may be closed.
Discipleship is wide open.
Long days and late nights with your kids aren't interruptions to ministry — they ARE ministry.

Here's to a great start to summer.
Long car rides, backyard conversations, family vacations, and evening walks can become some of the most powerful discipleship moments of the year.
Don't miss the opportunities God places in the ordinary moments.
☀️ What if this summer wasn't just about keeping the kids busy?
What if it became one of the most spiritually impactful seasons for your family?
Take advantage of the extra time together. Read Scripture. Create rhythms that help your children see and follow Jesus.
He sat in church drunk every Sunday for 11 years.
One Sunday he went home. And it was just over. He never drank again.
Today he leads 25 mini churches reaching people struggling with addiction.
Never give up on people. God isn't finished.

What if baptism isn't the finish line — it's the starting line?
That's a question Chip Pugh started asking as a teenager watching a friend get baptized. It's shaped everything about how he approaches faith, discipleship, and his work with the TN Titans.

The goal isn't a great discipleship program.
It's discipleship that goes home with people.
Josh Poteet puts it plainly — if your methods can't travel from the church building into the living room, they're not scalable enough.

Jesus didn't hire trained professionals to change the world.
He chose ordinary, unschooled people most wouldn't have picked.
Jim Putman realized — if the greatest disciple maker in history didn't need all that, maybe I don't either.
Work with what you have.
We want our churches to make disciples.
We want better programs. Better systems. Better curriculums.
But it has to start with the man or woman in the mirror first.
Am I a disciple worth multiplying?
That's the only question that matters today.
#DiscipleMaking#Discipleship
Many of us who think we love Jesus are actually just fans of Jesus.
Not followers.
Josh Howard came back from India with that uncomfortable realization — and it changed everything about how he understood discipleship.
There's a difference between a fan and a follower.
He had a seminary degree. He had preached hundreds of sermons. He had studied discipleship his whole adult life.
And then he got to India and realized he had never actually made a disciple.
Josh Howard gets honest this week. Read the post:

Today we honor the men and women who gave everything so we could live in freedom.
Their sacrifice deserves more than a long weekend.
Thank you to every fallen soldier and every family who bears that loss.

osh Howard went to India to convert people to Christianity.
The Indian Christians converted him into a real disciple of Jesus instead.
What would happen if we took Scripture that seriously?
Our churches would never be the same.
#DiscipleMaking#Faith#Discipleship
We use the word "discipleship" a lot in the church.
But are we actually doing what Jesus meant?
Here's what a real Discipleship Group looks like — and why it might be the most powerful tool your church has.

The world is loud, divided, and pulling in every direction.
How do you lead with wisdom under fire?

Bodies. Bucks. Buildings. Baptisms. Budgets.
Most churches track all the Bs.
But what if those are the wrong metrics entirely?
Good-hearted people build traditional churches. And we can do better.

When Jesus returns, what will matter most?
Paul looked at the Thessalonians and said — you are our hope, our joy, and our crown.
Not programs. Not numbers. People.
Genuine disciples who walk with Jesus. That's what we're building toward.
#DiscipleMaking#Faith#Discipleship
He started in a small group.
Former pro baseball player. Came to church. Joined a small group. Came on staff. Joined the executive team.
Now he's executive pastor.
Jim Putman didn't hire a leadership team. He grew one.
That's disciple making.

Pruning isn't cutting what's dead.
It's cutting what's bearing some fruit so you can bear even more.
Ministry, time, calendar — all of it has to be evaluated against the main mission of making disciples.
#DiscipleMaking#Ministry
The main quest is clear.
Be a disciple who makes disciples.
But the Christian world is full of good side quests that quietly pull us off mission. You can spend all your time and energy on really good things and still miss what God actually called you to do.
