M28 Stories

 

The M28 disciple-making model has been tested and proven effective in nations such as Australia, China, India, Japan, Nepal, various African nations, Germany, the Philippines, and the U.S. Thousands of people have been trained in the M28 disciple-making model. This movement is penetrating many dimensions of society by multiplying life-transforming groups of Christ-followers who reach out to their communities, engage them in discovery of God and His Truth, and equip them to become disciple-makers as well.

 

God is accomplishing extraordinary Kingdom advances throughout the world today! The following M28 stories are provided in praise of His redemptive work and for your encouragement as you explore or expand your M28 ministry initiative. These stories are not fictional, though names and places have been changed to protect our brothers and sisters who are from high-risk areas of the world. We pray and trust that God will multiply your M28 investment as well--through lives changed for eternity--here and around the world!

  • "I am in awe of the Spirit's leading in these [Bible Discovery] sessions and floored by the questions asked and observations made by these students who are reading Scripture for the first time.
