Disciples Made has helped me grow as a disciple by giving me practical tools I can use in my daily study of God’s Word and learning to apply all that Jesus teaches me and desires for me. It has helped me grow as a disciple-maker by giving me a clear roadmap for creating environments that inspire others to learn God’s Word and then put it into action. It has helped me lead toward transformation and multiplication in the lives of our students and our leaders. I think the most meaningful gift I have received from Disciples Made is the new sense of calling in my personal life to grow as a disciple, listen to Jesus voice, and then creatively and freely do what he is asking me to do. There is such joy in living in my calling to love Him and make more disciples!

Disciples Made has helped me become more like Jesus, be with Jesus, and join Him on mission in the every day spaces of my life and in my most important relationships. It’s also profoundly helped me help others to do the same. To say that it has had a significant impact on my personal life and the emergence of the Kansas City Underground is true, and something I treasure.

For way too long Disciple making has languished on the sideline of what Jesus commissioned his followers to be and do. Disciples Made helped me in my personal journey as a Jesus-follower and in pursuing faithfulness to what He called me to do. I am beyond grateful and thankful for Brian Phipps and his team! The tools and rhythms through Disciples Made added immensely to my own journey and toolbox. The big, unexpected bonus? Great new friends and co-laborers who gave and give encouragement and sharpening along the way.

The Disciples Made experience enter my life at just the right time. Sometimes you can get so involved in ministering that you don’t take the time to grow. My Leaders Made experience was critical in rekindling my personal spiritual growth. Disciples Made helped me grow as a disciple maker in that it caused me to be intentional in disciple making. I have been blessed to use many of the things I learned in the Disciples Made experience to lead others to grow and help them grow other disciples. One of the most meaningful things Disciples Made has done for me is that it showed me the importance of having a rhythm in life. Said differently, the regular reading of God’s Word, the journaling of what God is speaking to me, and having others hold me accountable. That’s invaluable. My Leaders Made experience through the disciple making family has forever altered my life. In a very, very good way!!! Praise God!!!

After completing Follower’s Made, I was at a cross roads so to speak in my spiritual life. Never before had I been not only challenged to truly follow Jesus, but also experienced the life-changing process of weekly filling my mind with God’s Word, journaling, reading books from knowledgeable Godly authors, and pouring into and receiving from others. I walked away thinking “Now what?” I didn’t want it to end. The opportunity to join a Leaders Made group became available soon after. On the one hand I was excited and relieved to have a clear next step, but that quickly changed for me when I realized the maturity, character, knowledge, and extensive real-life walk with God in the trenches and pinnacles of life that the other members of the group had — meaning, the “gap” I saw between where I was and they were was so great that I believed I did not belong with this group of steadfast, Godly men. However, they did not see it that way, surrounded me with wisdom and perspective, and not only encouraged but insisted that, in so many words, this was what God had appointed for me at this time. Who am I to resist God’s will? So I stayed, and looking back, can see how God’s hands shaped and molded me, guiding me to a new and much deeper, intimate relationship with Him through these men and LM. And within this process, building a solid foundation of character, integrity, and understanding of my true identity in Jesus. Do you truly, want more? Are you craving a real, transparent, heart changing experience that WILL move you in new directions you never thought possible? Be honest in answering that question, and if the answer is ‘“yes”, then Leader’s Made is for you.

Disciples Made’s formula of focusing on the outcomes of character & calling by engaging in the spiritual habits of bible engagement, prayer, and serving along with the accountability of a triad was absolutely catalytic in my spiritual growth! I had been attending or leading women’s bible studies (content focused) for years but experienced more transformation in becoming more like Jesus (outcome focused) in 6 months of Followers Made than years of doing bible studies. After this personal experience of spiritual growth I am now passionate about helping other women experience the same. Once you have been through one of these experiences it is easy to follow the proven formula and use the courses and resources in the Fully Alive App to disciple others!

Disciples Made changed my marriage and business in some tremendous ways. It was so impactful in how I view discipleship, mentorship and deepening my faith that I can't say enough good things about what these programs do for the Kingdom.

DisciplesMade increased my consistency and enjoyment in Bible study and applying what I was reading. It sharpened my focus on biblical thinking and helped me see the world and my calling from a godly perspective. The Scripture reading is critical and the book readings have been enlightening and inspiring.

DM helped me grow as a disciple in the following ways: It developed my character as a Christ follower & I’m bold but respectful about my faith. It developed my calling to serve others like Christ served us. I’m the area shepherd for Westside Family Church in the Riverview Elementary area community. I have the honor & privilege to serve members of this community in need. DM helped me grow as a disciple-maker by equipping me with the knowledge & tools necessary to be effective. DM also provided me with the confidence that I can be an effective disciple-maker. DM changed my life. I had the honor & privilege to participate in DM with high impact, high integrity, & motivated leaders in our community. These leaders held me accountable & made me a better disciple-maker & Christ follower. I highly recommend DM to anyone who wants to maximize their character x calling for maximum kingdom impact.

I think going through the leaders made program was one of the best things that I have ever done for my spiritual growth. It helped me refine the direction I wanted to go in terms of impacting people. It was a great source of camaraderie and a fantastic overall experience. One of the best parts is that you could actually measure your growth during the program. The my impact assessment was really interesting to look at throughout the process. I enjoyed it so much that I immediately started my own group after we finished, and that group has gone on to start other groups themselves.
