Intentional Discipleship Church (IDC) Process
Discipleship is a process of growth. It is a lifelong pursuit of
following Christ. Many churches want to make disciples but don't have the
empowering environment or the resources. CDM has identified nine
components that are essential for discipleship to take place in
successive generations.
We invite you to utilize our tools and resources as your church pursues
intentional disciplemaking.
Our resources may be utilized individually, or experienced in a
comprehensive process which is tailored to the distinctives of your church.
