Three questions shape the discipleship efforts of every church leader:

1
2
3
Do we have an intentional plan for making disciples?
How do we measure whether that plan is working?
Do we have the leaders to bring that plan to life?
These questions usually surface gaps in clarity, strategy, or execution — and most pastors don't have time or space to sit with their team and answer them.
What if we’re missing something in our approach to discipleship — not just our execution?

This pre-conference workshop, presented by RightNow Media in partnership with Trueface, is built around GROW — our framework for helping churches build a discipleship strategy from the inside out, starting with how leaders see, then shaping the environments where disciples grow.

Grow isn't a curriculum or a one-size-fits-all program. It's a structured way to think about your church's discipleship — clarifying what you believe about how people change, naming the disciple you're trying to make, and aligning your leadership team around a shared path forward.

We believe churches should be the best place for healthy relationships leading to spiritual growth. The GROW Disciples Workshop is a starting point.

Walk away with:

  • A shared language for discipleship — what you believe, who you're trying to make, and how you'll know if it’s working.
  • Practical tools for evaluating leadership development and small group structures.
  • A working two-page roadmap to take home, refine with your full team, and use to guide your next 6–12 months of discipleship work.

This workshop will move you from vision to a starting plan. The work of building a thriving discipleship culture happens after, but you'll leave knowing where to begin and how to align your team.

Who This Is For

This workshop is built for lead pastors and their key team members — the people responsible for casting and implementing discipleship vision in their church.

You'll get the most out of it if:

  • You sense your church's discipleship is working harder than it's working.
  • Your team can't articulate, in one sentence, what a maturing disciple at your church looks like.
  • You've collected programs faster than you've collected clarity.
  • You're ready to spend two days with your team building a shared way forward.

Bring 2–4 leaders from your team. The workshop is designed to give you space to think and decide together, not just receive content.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should attend this workshop?

This workshop is designed for lead pastors and church leaders who are responsible for casting and implementing the discipleship vision for their church.

Is childcare provided at the workshop?

Childcare is not provided at the workshop.

Does my church have to have a RightNow Media subscription to attend?

No, this event is open to any church leader or pastor who wants to attend! Space is limited so be sure to register now to claim your spot.

Who can I contact if I have more questions?

For additional questions, please email us at events@rightnowmedia.org.

How is this different from other discipleship workshops or curricula I've seen?

Most discipleship resources start with programs and content. GROW starts with how leaders see and the kind of disciple you're trying to make, then helps you build outward from there. The workshop is built around helping your team align on those upstream questions before deciding what programs to run.

Do I need to bring my team?

Strongly recommended. The workshop is designed to create alignment that's hard to recreate later. We suggest bringing 2–4 leaders who help shape discipleship in your church."

What happens after the workshop?

You'll leave with a draft roadmap. We'll send follow-up resources, and we offer ongoing consulting for churches that want guided implementation of their plan. Reach out if you'd like to talk about what that could look like.
