The aim of Intentional Discipleship Groups (IDGs) is to develop self-starting, replicating, and wholly committed followers of Jesus Christ. In 2 Timothy 2:2, Paul instructed Timothy, “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses, entrust to reliable people who will also be competent to teach others.”

IDG has a model for making disciples based on Jesus’ approach. This model is intentional, relational, and Biblical. The goal is to create an environment of authenticity, accountability, and truth. Joining an IDG requires a high level of commitment, transparency, and love. The groups consist of 3 to 4 individuals and are led by someone who has been enlisted, trained, and approved.

We would like to see you become a self-motivated, fully devoted follower of Jesus. To achieve this, we require an initial eight-week commitment, followed by an eight-month involvement if you choose to continue. Most groups will meet weekly for an hour and a half, and regular attendance is expected. Intentional Discipleship Groups (IDGs) will have their own schedules, but they require work to be done beforehand (1-2 hours per week), and there is an expectation of regular prayer for one another and a daily devotional. The focus of the studies will be on application, accountability, and affirmation, with the word of God being at the center of discussion. The Holy Spirit will be the transformative power. As you grow, you will learn to lead the group with the intention of guiding the next generation of IDGs. We cordially invite you to be a part of the upcoming generation of IDGs.

The primary goal of IDG is to develop a deeper relationship with God through the establishment of practices that help us learn and grow in Christ for a lifetime, and also lead others to do the same. We launch IDG during the fall season every year. To receive information about the next IDG launch, please click on the registration link below.
