Episode 9: Transforming the Church: Building Leaders, Growing Disciples featuring Orlander Thomas

The dialogue on, People Growth Discipleship, dives deep into the essence of discipleship, contrasting mere Christianity with the impactful, learner-focused relationship of a disciple to Christ.

 

Thomas and Dublin explore the current challenges churches face in fostering genuine discipleship among congregations.
