About this episode

This episode discusses the challenges faced in sustaining disciple-making efforts within churches and how initial enthusiasm can fade over time.

Not every disciple-making effort lasts. Many churches launch with enthusiasm, see early momentum, and celebrate transformed lives. Then, over time, the excitement fades. Groups stop multiplying, leaders become discouraged, and what once felt like a movement slowly becomes another ministry program.
