For more information about Small Circle, visit their website: https://www.smallcircle.com/
This episode dives into innovative and effective strategies for discipleship, with a strong emphasis on the practice of creating deeply personal and transformative relationships within various group sizes, inspired by the model of Jesus. The "circles" Steve talks about represent different levels of fellowship and teaching, from large worship services to intimate one-to-one mentorships. Customized content and relational depth at each level is super important. These activities aim to personalize and deepen the understanding and practice of biblical principles, culminating in the ultimate goal of disciples making disciples. We need to use personal stories, experiential learning, and creative engagement methods to facilitate deep, lasting spiritual growth and prepare disciples for effective ministry and multiplication.

Customer Reviews
May God Continue to be Honored!
Very few resources offer the thought provoking training as this podcast. Each speaker provides a wealth of ideas to help the ordinary Christ follower to begin, develop, and sustain a strategy to be a disciple maker who makes disciple makers. The honesty about mistakes made and pitfalls to avoid are worth considering. This podcast is far more than information delivery, but a God glorifying way to recalculate priorities in life.
Great content
There are lots of good stuff on making disciples in this podcast. It can feel like you’re drinking from a fire hose, but a lot of what is said here has both confirmed what I believed how ministry is done while shifting many of the paradigms that I had about ministry. I’m also grateful that much of the content that I’d miss out on from not being able to attend the forums is online. This is for people who want to follow Christ and want to further His Kingdom.
This has changed my spiritual walk
I discovered this podcast and Yahweh has used it to CHANGE my walk & the way I do ministry. The stories & perspectives are EXACTLY what I need right now. Thank you thank you thank you discipleship.org & David(s) for putting this on.
