I would love to hear your reasons on why you picked what you picked in the comments. Someone asked me this the other day and I thought it was an amazing question to dig down deep and think about what is most important.
This is discipleship for me. Life open and honest, come and follow me, let’s love God and people. Life change happens in relationship and I couldn’t give this up.
I picked small groups because you can take a few people, pour into them, train them the same way to disciple as you do, tell them to do the same and send them out.
Small groups – we all want to be known and this is where that happens. Discipleship within small groups gives space for people to ask questions, share ideas and be a part of something where they participate and not just observe what is going on. The other options are great compliments to small groups, but small groups are key.

Same here man. I’ll lean towards that too. It’s the back bone of our ministry.

Great insight, I agree with you. I would lean more towards this one as well.
I picked the closest to preaching.
Services would be the closest to that one I’m guessing? Why would you do that?
