Dave and Sydney Clayton share their passion for family discipleship, discussing strategies for discipling children at different stages in life. They emphasize the role of spiritual connections in shaping familial relationships beyond biological ties.

In this episode, Shodankeh Johnson (New Generations) takes us through the significant role that prayer and fasting plays in disciple-making movements, stressing their importance in staying close to God.

He ends with a resonating prayer for strengthening faith and a plea for the willingness to steadfastly embrace prayer and fasting practices.

Bobby Harrington, point leader of discipleship.org, spoke with us about disciple making movements and connecting it to the everyday people at everyday churches pouring into other. He contrasts the differences between these huge movements happening overseas and the things we’re lacking here in North America and brings to light the reasons why we don’t see those movements here in the States. Are we really taking this seriously? Do we really believe the Gospel? Do we really believe our lost neighbors are going to face Jesus when they die and find themselves not ready? We need a sense of urgency in order to see movements of discipleship break out in North America.
