A Clear Plan and Support for Making Disciples

The Desire

Many Christians want to make disciples who make disciples but are not sure how to move forward. Some have years of experience; others are just beginning. Yet many share the same desire: to see people come to faith, grow as disciples, help others follow Jesus, and participate in healthy churches that continue the work.

The Obstacles

We face a variety of obstacles to making disciples who make disciples. We may lack a clear plan that connects evangelism, discipleship, church life, and leadership development. Limited time and energy, fragmented efforts, few reproducible tools, and too little coaching or support can also make it difficult to sustain the work.

How We Can Help

The Gathering Network provides clear, integrated, and ongoing support for this work. We help you reach people with the gospel, strengthen believers in community, and develop leaders who can strengthen churches and help start new ones. Through practical resources, coaching, and ongoing relationships, we help you identify your next steps and pursue the Great Commission alongside others.

What is The Gathering Network?

We are a community of Christians working together to make disciples of all nations.

Our Vision

Our vision is to start, strengthen, and multiply churches in homes, across cities, throughout regions, and ultimately among all nations. We see this pattern throughout the first century as the apostles and those they equipped carried out Jesus’s mission.

Our Mission

Our mission is to make disciples of all nations. The risen Jesus sends us to go, proclaim the good news of his death and resurrection, call people to repentance and faith, baptize new believers, and teach them to obey everything he commanded.

Our Strategy

We pursue this mission and vision through what we call The Apostolic Cycle: reaching non-Christians, strengthening Christians in community, and developing leaders. As these priorities continue, people come to faith, believers mature, leaders develop, and churches are started, strengthened, and multiplied.

Our Approach

We help ordinary believers put this mission into practice through a simple, repeatable pathway of disciple-making. At the center, we seek to love God and love others through the Word, prayer, and obedience. We continue identifying our natural networks of relationships and praying for ourselves and others as we move through five interconnected movements: Serve, Seek, Invite, Gather, and Equip.

Our Invitation

The Gathering Network helps ordinary believers and leaders take their next step in this work. Whether you are learning to share the gospel, strengthening believers, developing as a leader, or helping start and strengthen churches, we invite you to learn, practice, and grow with us.
