    Follow Me: Discovering the Value of Discipleship 

    “Discipleship” is a familiar word in Christian spaces, yet many believers have never had it clearly defined or seen it lived out in an intentional way. In our two main sessions, Patty Scott will share how one intentional discipleship relationship transformed her life and deepened her spiritual maturity in ways she never imagined. Through a blend of personal stories and biblical teaching from the words of Jesus and the apostle Paul, Patty will offer a relatable and practical look at discipleship—showing how it shapes not only our ministries, but our whole lives.

    Session 1: What is Discipleship? 

    We will explore Jesus’ call to His first disciples, paying close attention to His invitation in Matthew 4:19. We’ll also look at Paul’s teaching on spiritual maturity and consider how understanding the stages of growth can help us identify our own needs—and the needs of those we walk alongside—as we grow in Christ. 

    Session 2: What Is the Value of Discipleship? 

    Together, we’ll discover how Paul’s words in Titus 2 encourage women of every age and stage to support and strengthen one another. We will also discuss the challenges, expectations, and healthy boundaries that help discipleship relationships flourish and contribute to a thriving church community.

  • Breakout Groups

    New this year!

    Instead of attending separate topical workshops, you’ll join a breakout group with women who serve in similar ministry areas. In these smaller settings, you’ll participate in an activity and engage in guided discussion about spiritual maturity and how it shapes discipleship relationships. Our hope is that this time—led by a trained facilitator—will reinforce the teaching from the main sessions and give you space to process, share ideas, and learn from one another in a more personal environment. Please indicate your area of serving on the registration form.
