Come, Grow, Share, Go
A simple, reproducible path for making disciples. Not a program. Not a curriculum. A way of life that mirrors how Jesus formed the Twelve.
Why a Model?
Jesus gave us a clear command: make disciples. But he didn't hand us a manual. He showed us a pattern.
He invited people in. He walked with them. He sent them out. And he expected them to do the same for others.
This model puts language around that pattern. It's not original. It's just faithful. Simple enough for anyone to follow. Reproducible enough for anyone to teach.
Phase 1
Come
Every disciple starts somewhere. Jesus said, "Come and see." He didn't demand belief first. He invited people to be near him.
This is the front door. Hospitality. Invitation. Welcome. The gospel proclaimed not just in words but in presence. When people encounter Jesus through his people, something shifts.
Come means creating space for the curious, the skeptical, and the searching. No pressure. No performance. Just come and see.
Phase 2
Grow
After people come, they need to be rooted. Growth happens in community, through the Word, and by the Spirit.
This isn't a class. It's a life together. Reading Scripture. Praying. Confessing. Encouraging. Walking through real things with real people. Formation over information.
The teaching on this site serves this phase. Deep study that equips people to handle Scripture themselves, not to create dependence on a teacher.
Phase 3
Share
Disciples don't just receive. They give. Healthy believers serve the body, use their gifts, and open their lives to others.
This is the "one another" commands in action. Bear one another's burdens. Encourage one another. Teach one another. Hospitality. Generosity. The shared life of the church.
Share is where discipleship becomes visible. Not on a stage. At a table.
Phase 4
Go
The endpoint of discipleship is not maturity for its own sake. It's multiplication. Disciples who make disciples. Churches that plant churches.
Go means carrying the gospel forward. Into your neighborhood. Your workplace. Your city. Across the world. Not as a program but as a natural outflow of a life shaped by Jesus.
This is the Great Commission lived out in ordinary faithfulness. Simple. Reproducible. Unstoppable.
"And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also."
2 Timothy 2:2
Start with the Word.
The best way to grow is to open the Bible and walk through it with others.
