Discipleship Groups

A Discipleship Group (D-Group) is a peer-based, same-gender group of 2-5 people who want to be intentional about their growth and perseverance as disciples of Jesus.

Jesus had Peter, John, and James as a close group with whom His disciple-making practices were lived out. Jesus taught them, sent them out and “debriefed” their experiences with them. He continually revealed who He was to them and drew them into His circle of friends (John 15:15), teaching them everything God His father had taught Him.

Like Jesus’ “inner circle,” these  Willingdon Discipleship Groups meet together in the presence of Jesus
to share:

• Their moments of encounter with God (Meeting with Jesus),
• Their places of personal vulnerability and struggle (Walking with Jesus),
• Their opportunities for ministry to others (Leading others to Jesus)
