What helps make a church truly healthy? According to recent disciple-making research, one of the clearest signs of church health is how believers are multiplying disciple-makers.
In this encouraging conversation, theologian, author, and Navigators leader Alice Matagora joins Jason Daye to unpack the latest research on disciple-making in the US and what it means for pastors and ministry leaders today. Together, we explore both the challenges and the hope:
- Surprising research trends about disciple-making in the American church
- How pastors can help everyday believers become disciple-makers
- What healthy churches do to create disciple-making culture
- Why multiplying disciples matters for every generation
- Practical encouragement for pastors and leaders equipping their people
This episode will equip pastors and ministry leaders with clarity, hope, and practical tools for leading churches that multiply disciples who make disciples.
