## Resource

What if your church’s discipleship system could multiply without adding a single new program? In this fast-paced episode, Kevin unpacks three powerful shifts every pastor must make to move from maintenance to movement in their discipleship culture. Drawing from his Make More Disciples Challenge , Kevin explains how small mindset shifts can unlock massive ministry impact. In this episode, you’ll learn: Action Over Information — Why discipleship is more caught than taught and how to move people from sitting to serving. Pathways Over Programs — How to simplify your ministry calendar and create a clear next-step culture. Shared Leadership Over Lone Leadership — How to build a multiplying culture that prevents burnout and empowers believers to lead. If your church is stuck in the cycle of “busy but not fruitful,” this episode will help you re-center your focus and create a pathway that engages every believer in the mission of Christ. 👉 Learn more about the Make More Disciples Challenge: https://morediscipleschallenge.com/optin
