The free pilot is intentionally designed to be simple and realistic. Most leaders can begin with a weekly 90-minute discipleship meeting going through the Gospel of Mark one chapter per week. After 2 to 3 sessions, a church can make an informed decision whether there is a fit to move forward.

The goal is not to add another heavy ministry burden. The goal is to create a clear rhythm that helps disciple-making become more intentional, measurable, and reproducible.

For most churches, the first step is simply helping a small group of committed leaders experience the process before considering a broader rollout.

No. Modern Day Disciple Maker is not meant to become another competing ministry program on the church calendar.

It is better understood as a Disciple-Making Operating System — a simple framework that helps a church align leaders, clarify the pathway, equip disciple-makers, and make spiritual multiplication more visible.

Many churches already have strong preaching, groups, serving opportunities, and ministries. Modern Day Disciple Maker is designed to help those efforts connect more clearly to the Great Commission.

No. The process can serve churches of different sizes because the starting point is not a large-scale rollout. The starting point is a small group of committed leaders practicing a clear disciple-making rhythm.

Larger churches may benefit from the operating system, dashboards, leadership alignment, and scalable implementation support. Smaller churches may benefit from the simplicity, clarity, and reproducibility of the pathway.

The key question is not church size. The key question is whether the church wants disciple-making to become more intentional, personal, and repeatable.

No. The app is not the discipler. The relationship is still the heart of the process.

The Disciple 1x1 App is simply a guide that helps leaders know what to do next, stay on track, and walk with someone through a clear discipleship pathway.

The purpose of the technology is to support real life-on-life disciple-making, not replace it. The most important work still happens through prayer, Scripture, conversation, obedience, accountability, and the work of the Holy Spirit.

We believe technology should serve relationships, not replace them. Modern Day Disciple Maker uses digital tools to make the disciple-making pathway clearer, easier to follow, and more repeatable.

But the heart of disciple-making remains deeply human: prayer, Scripture, obedience, accountability, encouragement, and life-on-life investment.

Any use of AI or automation should support pastors and leaders, not substitute for spiritual discernment or relational ministry.

The free pilot gives your church a simple way to experience the disciple-making pathway before making a larger commitment.

It typically includes access to the first part of the Disciple 1x1 process, sample Leader Guide and Disciple Workbook materials, and a practical rhythm for testing the experience with a small number of leaders.

The purpose of the pilot is to help your team answer a few important questions: Is this clear? Is this reproducible? Does this help our leaders make disciples with greater confidence?

After the pilot, the church can evaluate what was learned and decide whether it makes sense to continue.

Some churches may simply want to use the pilot as a learning experience. Others may choose to move into a broader implementation plan that includes leadership alignment, a clearer disciple-making pathway, leader training, metrics, and ongoing coaching.

The next step is not automatic. The goal is to help your church make a wise, prayerful decision based on actual experience, not theory.

The pilot is designed to be a low-risk first step. If your church decides to continue beyond the pilot, there may be a cost depending on the level of support, customization, coaching, training, and implementation help your church needs.

Modern Day Disciple Maker is not trying to pressure churches into a one-size-fits-all package. The right next step depends on your church’s size, goals, leadership structure, and readiness.

Any future cost would be discussed clearly before moving forward.

Modern Day Disciple Maker is built around the conviction that Jesus commanded His followers to make disciples, not merely attend services, consume content, or participate in programs.

The process assumes that disciple-making is biblical, relational, Spirit-dependent, Scripture-centered, and meant to reproduce from one person to another.

Modern Day Disciple Maker is designed to serve local churches, not replace them. The goal is to help pastors and leaders equip everyday believers to follow Jesus, become more like Him, and help others do the same.
