You Want to Make Disciples—But You Don’t Feel Equipped.
You’re not alone.
Many Christians deeply desire to obey Jesus’ command to make disciples—but they hesitate. They worry:
- Do I know enough?
- Am I the right person?
- What if I mess it up?
Research confirms these concerns. The biggest barriers to disciple-making are fear, lack of confidence, and not knowing where to start.
But here’s the truth:
Making disciples isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about walking with Jesus and helping others do the same. Every believer can make disciples—just like Jesus did.
That includes you.

Real Stories of Life Change Through Core Discipleship
Discover how Core Discipleship is equipping believers to grow in Christ, lead others, and multiply Core Groups around the world
“One of the biggest blessings was learning from our instructor. Watching him correct misunderstandings with such gentleness and kindness really impacted me. He didn’t just teach truth—he modeled it. I personally felt both encouraged and challenged by him, especially in how I think about the law and its subtle ways of creeping back into our thinking. The course materials were incredibly helpful. They deepened my understanding of Scripture and gave me solid tools I now use in my own walk with Christ and in discipling others. That’s what I love about Core Discipleship—it equips you not just to grow yourself, but to help others grow too. I’ve already started recommending this training to other believers. It’s made a real difference in my life, and I believe it will in theirs too.”
