Nancy, founder of MORE Mentoring and author of Mentoring Made Real, leads a prayer-focused mentoring movement. She explains a simple one-on-one mentoring process. Topics include the four pillars: love, listen, encourage, pray. Practical tools, 12-session guides, mobilizing mentors, and tips for launching mentoring in churches are discussed.

Bob, a senior leader who spots where God is working and assesses leaders over time; Brad, an executive pastor and small-group coach who builds apprenticeship and invitation pathways; Brandon, a leader shaping church DNA through groups and training; Jim, a speaker who runs a farm-system for raising leaders. They discuss spotting future leaders in relationships, long-term assessment, apprenticeship models, and practical systems to get leaders in the game.

Jim Putnam, discipleship leader who coaches groups and pastors, and Bob Reed, pastor who led a church toward relational discipleship. They discuss how small groups create safe, trust-filled dynamics, practical group rules like confidentiality and no cross-talk, and stories of life-on-life transformation that reshape churches and communities.

Brandon Gindon, senior pastor and church planter experienced in building scalable small-group disciple-making systems. He discusses clear goals for groups, practical structures for multiplication, coaching layers and host-home rhythms. Short tactics cover tracking spiritual growth, pruning ministries, reaching neighbors, and hands-on solutions for young families.

Jesus had an intentional method and model of disciple making. Are we following His lead, or are we separating the methods of Jesus from the teachings of Jesus and expecting the results of Jesus? In this session, we will help you understand the keys to the Great Commission and help you realign with the master disciple maker, Jesus. Stay informed - Get our newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hPViAr

A walkthrough of a free mobile tool reshaping one-to-one disciple-making around the world. Features, navigation, and practical session guides are explored. Creative practices, tracking progress, and ways to pin prayer points and action steps get spotlighted. Safety, offline use, organizational oversight, and strategies for growing a discipleship culture are also covered.

They explore experiential 'labs' that turn abstract teaching into memorable, life-changing moments. The session compares passive classroom learning to hands-on methods Jesus used, like Peter stepping out of the boat. Practical lab examples include cemetery, childhood photos, playful sin-illustrations, and letters to break walls. There's focus on retention, tools for small circles, and strategies for long-term disciple-making.

Steve McCoy, a Sarasota pastor who leads Small Circle disciple-making training, outlines how to build a disciple-making culture with intentional strategy. He explains Jesus’ three ministry circles, the power of one-to-one discipleship, practical tools and labs for obedience, and a rhythm for multiplying generations from local neighborhoods to worldwide impact.

A look at why one-to-one relationships unlock deeper spiritual growth and how they differ from groups. Neuroscience and social research explain human limits for intimacy. Jesus' varied relational patterns are examined as a model. Practical examples show how one-to-one connection combats loneliness and multiplies disciples across generations.
