Disciple Classes

“If you make my word your home, you will indeed be my disciples.”
~John 8:31 The New Jerusalem Bible

The DISCIPLE Bible Study program is designed to develop strong local churches through the in-depth study of Scripture. Through DISCIPLE, persons are strengthened in their faith and guided into service and ministry. Strong, biblically nourished leadership will help your church grow in vitality and Christian discipleship.

Disciple History

In March 1986, a group of eighteen gathered in Flower Mound, TX, committed to a dream of developing a Bible study for training Christian Disciples. Together they shaped the dream into a vision of what became “Disciple: Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study.”

In July of 1989, three years after the Flower Mound gathering that gave birth to “Disciple,” hard had come across the church that lives were being changed and churches renewed. A group gathered once again and took on the challenge of providing another live-changing study. The results was “Disciple: Into the Word, Into the World,” with the challenge of going deeper into the Word and out into the world.

Another three years later, in December of 1992, another gathering took place and the new study took shape. Experience confirmed direction, and congregations were ready to confront and be confronted by the hard words of the prophets. The result was “Disciple: Remember Who You Are,” the third study in what would become a four-phase program.

Finally, in 2001, the fourth and final study of the original “Disciple” program was published. From Creation to the New Jerusalem — that was the promise and the vision. “Disciple: Under the Tree of Life” was published and groups would study the Writings and Revelation.

The journey was long and in-depth and would take congregations through the Bible twice. “Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study” provides an overview of the entire Bible. The next three studies deal with specific books in detail. “Disciple Bible Studies” have been influential in transforming the lives of 1.5 million people. These studies have also led to the development of “Christian Believer” and “Jesus in the Gospels.” As lives are changed and products are developed, “Disciple Bible Study” continues to grow.
