DMM Training Options
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20

The last thing Jesus told his disciples was to make disciples, baptize, and teach them to obey. But how? The disciples had no money, power, or leader. YET, they changed everything. They did have a life-changing experience with Jesus, a willingness to simply obey, the power of the Holy Spirit, and lots of contacts. The Good News spread from person to person to person starting a movement of new disciples. This is what we would call a Disciple Making Movement (DMM).
Being a disciple of Jesus means making disciples, but not many people are doing that today. We need to be a disciple who knows how to train disciples who make disciples? If you and your team have not been trained in DMM, we highly recommend you take a training before taking this course.
