How do we serve faithfully in ministry to have a lifelong disciple-making impact?

After 15 years in Youth Ministry, Dr. Catt began pastoring in the 1980s in Oklahoma. He is a producer, author of 9 books, and former Senior Pastor of Sherwood Baptist Church from 1989 until his retirement in 2021. He married Terri, and they have two daughters, Hayley and Erin.

What is GA Baptist Discipleship?

This podcast exists to strengthen churches by resourcing, inspiring, and creating disciple-makers! Discipleship is a life-long process by which a follower of Jesus Christ grows toward Christ-likeness and multiplies the experience. Each week we will broadcast new episodes relevant to your ministry and replicating discipleship.
