A significant part of the church's mission is to develop disciples. If the church is going to make progress in both cultural sustainability and sharing the gospel with the next generation, the church has to grow young.
- How will we reach, teach and mentor those that will eventually lead their families, our churches and our movement?
- What are the benchmarks of a true disciple of Jesus Christ?
- What methods will we employ to show the pathway from beginning to follow Christ to the place of spiritual maturity?
