Join Carl Johnson, Leadership Development Pastor at Peace Baptist Church in Decatur, GA, and JR Neal, Minister of Discipleship and Missions at First Baptist Church of Moultrie, GA discuss how to engage with others disciple-makers near you. To belong we all need to be noticed, be named, and known. Hear about how a Learning Community near you can help you belong! https://gabaptist.org/discipleship/#learning

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.
