BECOME A PARTNER CHURCH

You Don't Have to Build
a Disciple-Making Culture alone

Whether you are a church planter, a rural congregation, an established church seeking renewal, or a ministry leader looking to develop disciple-makers, partnership can be tailored to your context.
Some churches utilize our training resources.
Others implement Discovery Groups or Accountability Groups.
Still others engage in coaching relationships or develop Spiritual Families throughout their congregation.
Together we discern what will best serve your people and mission.

Let's Start the Conversation

Together, we can help more people follow Jesus and help others do the same.

Every church is unique, and partnership begins with listening.
We would love to learn about your church, your community, and your disciple-making goals to explore whether a partnership with the Follow Network would be a good fit.

Let's customize your plan today.

"The Follow Network helped us refine & intentionally align our disciple-making movement strategies into a clear framework & pathway. The training also helped our people to feel equipped and confident that leading a DBS group & being a disciple-maker is absolutely possible for every believer because it is a God-given call to each of us."

- Rachael Collins, Kaleo Church
