“And the word of God spread and continued to multiply.” Repeatedly these words are found throughout the book of Acts. The early church was characterized by the rapid multiplication of disciples. Truly the power, presence, and passion of Jesus were in full force. And this continues to be accessible today.

Within the last several years in the missions world, there has been quite a bit of talk about disciple-making movements and church multiplication. It is just what it sounds like. Disciples make disciples who make disciples, and it spreads swiftly through the multiplication of churches. Rooted in passionate prayer, commitment to sharing the Gospel, and desire to multiply simply, the movement rolls on.

These movements can only be ushered in by the divine move of God’s Spirit. We can learn from the basics of what others involved in disciple-making movements have experienced, but ultimately, it is all about God’s Spirit working and bringing new life into dead places.

Midway through Global Frontier Missions' Missionary Training School, students learn the principles of disciple-making and church multiplication movements. Aside from good strategy, strong prayer, and boldly sharing the Good News, the movement is characterized by tremendous persecution and sacrifice. It is a sobering week as students begin to count the cost of what it may take to join God in the expansion of His kingdom.

Would you join with us and ask God to pour out his Spirit to see disciple-making and church planting movements throughout the world amongst the most neglected regions? Also, spend time seeking how God may want you to be a part of the beautiful harvest.
