FAQ

Q: WHAT IS THE IDEAL NUMBER FOR A D-GROUP?

A: Four is the best number of people for a group discussion. Everyone has a chance to participate, and the level of intimacy and closeness is more attainable, and easier to be transparent and authentic.

Q: WHAT IF ONLY ONE OR TWO OTHERS WANT TO GO THROUGH DG?

A: One or two is fine, though four provide a better opportunity to receive more insights each week.

Q: IS IT OKAY TO DO MIXED GENDERS IN A GROUP?

A: We encourage the same gender for obvious reasons that it lessens the risk for an unhealthy relationship to form, and it’s easier to talk about same gender life issues when they come up.

Q: WHAT ARE THE BEST TYPES OF PEOPLE TO FIND FOR A DISCIPLESHIP GROUP?

A: They’re hungry for God. Comfortable to be around. Don’t stress you out. Are not toxic. Have a teachable and humble spirit to learn. You’re always glad to see them.

Q: WHICH BOOK IN THE DG “SHOP” SHOULD I START A DISCIPLESHIP GROUP WITH?

A: Start with discipleship primer: Kingdom Living. It is a 12-14 week journey through eleven sections of foundational Biblical themes. This helps everyone to get on the same page for going forward with the actual DG Courses. It also helps to get everyone into a discipleship “rhythm” by the time you're done with Kingdom Living.

Q: HOW DOES THIS MAKE PEOPLE GROW FASTER IN THE LORD?

A: The systematic process in these courses is designed to enhance and equip your ability to retain and explain what you learn to the other disciples in your group. When you do the work and share your insights each week with the other members, your retention level for what you learn increases 90% versus 10-20% if you only listen to a message on Sunday and forget it two weeks later. We train you how to study the Bible and take you through a learning system that accelerates your spiritual growth in God ten-fold.

Q: CAN I GO THROUGH THIS DG SYSTEM WITHOUT A SEASONED MENTOR?

A: That might be ideal, if you are introduced to DG by someone who has been in it or has completed the courses. But I, the author, am your mentor/coach taking you through these courses by how I’ve written them. It’s turnkey. It will train YOU to be a mentor by the knowledge and experience you’ll grow into as you go. Mentor/coaches are a rare find in the kingdom of God. That’s why DG exists. To change that problem and raise up an army of spiritual mentors­­ in the body of Christ—starting with you and your group. So, let’s get started and the Holy Spirit will begin to show you amazing things!
