The Disciple Maker's Podcast

Ariyana Rimson teaches that disciple making is Christ's command beginning with submission to God (James 4:7). She urges executing Scripture—not personal opinion—resisting the enemy, and modeling a Christ-following life through teaching, Scripture-based advice, and accountability. Using her S.U.B.M.I.T. framework (Submit, Understand, Boldness, Mutual submission, Invitation, Temptation/pride), she shows how humility, community, and gospel-centered relationships transform lives, especially in her work with women in recovery.   Stay informed - Get our newsletter:  http://eepurl.com/hPViAr Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/  Check out the following eBooks from Discipleship.org: -- What Is Church?

Josh Howard presents a recorded talk from the 2026 pre-conference summarizing research on disciple-making churches and the seven core practices they share. Those seven practices are convictional leadership; obedience-based, reproducible models; prayer and Scripture as the foundation; relational community; clear pathways and expectations; mission beyond the walls; and leadership alignment. The episode explains how these principles work across different models, offers practical examples, and invites churches to apply the practices to grow a disciple-making culture.

Bobby Harrington unpacks research showing that 95% of North American churches lack a Jesus-style disciple-making culture, describing how consumerism, program-driven models, and unclear metrics have produced few reproducible disciples. He also shares encouraging findings: nine Level 5 churches demonstrate that multiplication is possible through seven shared practices—clarity of mission, simple reproducible models, prayer and scripture, relational life-on-life discipleship, clear pathways, mission beyond the walls, and aligned leadership.

Ralph Moore recounts the Hope Chapel story and teaches a simple, reproducible disciple-making model built around four questions used at personal, group, and leadership levels. He explains how aligning weekend teaching with small "mini-church" groups, asking the four questions, and training leaders to reproduce groups led to massive multiplication—from 12 people to thousands of churches worldwide. The episode gives practical next steps: teach through the Bible, model the questions with three trusted people, and start new groups by apprenticing leaders, emphasizing life-on-life relationships over programs.

Josh Howard shares what it means to "own the mission" of making disciples. He recounts his time in India where local believers taught him what true discipleship looks like and why Western approaches often fall short. The episode emphasizes personal commitment to living like Jesus did, mentoring others through practical obedience, and releasing control to multiply disciple-making movements. Josh challenges listeners to start small, invite others to walk with them, and prioritize being disciples worth reproducing.   Stay informed - Get our newsletter:  http://eepurl.com/hPViAr Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/  Check out the following eBooks from Discipleship.org: -- What Is Church?

What would it take for disciple-making to not just be something your church does, but something embedded in its very culture? There are four key essentials: 1) Getting everyday people in the game, 2) Reaching fourth-generation and beyond, 3) Discipling both believers and those still searching, and 4) Expanding disciple-making beyond your local corner. In this lunch session, we'll unpack how these principles can move from theory to reality—proving that a thriving, multiplying disciple-making culture isn't just possible, it's within reach.   Stay informed - Get our newsletter:  http://eepurl.com/hPViAr Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/  Check out the following eBooks from Discipleship.org: -- What Is Church?

We don't just learn through words—we learn through experience. A disciple isn't formed by simply transferring information, and no one understood this better than Jesus. Think about when Peter was challenged to step out of the boat. That wasn't just a lesson—it was a life-altering experience. Do you think Peter ever forgot it? In this session, we'll explore how to integrate powerful, real-life experiences—what we call "Labs"—into disciple-making, just as Jesus did. You'll walk away with a collection of practical, hands-on labs that will take your disciple-making beyond information transfer and into transformational impact.

Disciple making isn't a program—it was never meant to be. The goal is creating a culture where disciple making becomes the core DNA of our churches and organizations, inside and out. This session will unpack the essential building blocks for cultivating that culture: equipping everyday believers, reaching fourth-generation disciple-making and beyond, discipling people both to Jesus and in Jesus, and expanding the impact of disciple making from our local corner to the corners of our city, region, and to the corners of the world. This is possible with an intentional strategy. Check out Discipleship.org for resources on disciple making: https://discipleship.org/resources/   

Have you ever noticed how a conversation feels different when it's just the two of you in a restaurant booth—no distractions, no third party—just a unique sense of closeness? That's because God engineered us for different levels of relational depth in different settings. Jesus modeled disciple-making across all these spaces—larger groups, micro-groups (3-4 people), and one-to-one. Yet, the one-to-one dynamic is often overlooked, and with it, an invaluable relational depth is lost. This session will uncover why one-to-one disciple-making is essential, the life-changing power it holds, and the practical strategy for making it a core part of disciple-making.

Join us for the 2026 National Disciple Making Forum: https://discipleship.org/2026-national-disciple-making-forum/ In this episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, host Josh Howard addresses church leaders who feel a deep, unexplainable ache for more within the church. He explores the tension between the current church structure and the dynamic, multiplying church described in the Book of Acts. Howard argues for a 'dual operating system' church that integrates both visible Sunday gatherings and an invisible system of disciple-making relationships, prayer, and missionary work. Drawing on historical examples like John Wesley and the Moravian Church, he emphasizes the need for dual engines to fuel both gathering and scattering, formation and multiplication. Howard calls on leaders to start small, embrace disciple-making, and reinvigorate the church by embedding New Testament principles into its structure, all while maintaining unity and honoring existing church frameworks.

He emphasizes that many churches today fail not due to lack of programs or leadership but because they do not genuinely make disciples. Josh outlines Jesus' clear, simple, and reproducible model of discipleship encapsulated in three stages: being with Him, becoming like Him, and doing what He did. Through anecdotes and insights, he underscores the transformative power of intimate relationships with Jesus. Josh calls for a return to the basics of disciple making—living closely with Jesus, reshaping our lives to mirror His, and actively carrying out His mission. Tune in for an inspiring call to embrace authentic discipleship and ignite a movement of Christ-like living in our communities.
