Join the 5 in 12 Training Journey
5 in 12 is a practical disciple-making journey where we learn together, practise together, and encourage one another as we make disciples who make disciples.
The journey consists of five trainings over twelve months. Each training builds on the last, helping participants move from learning, to doing, to equipping others.
Whether you're an individual, a couple, a family, a small group, or a ministry team, you'll learn simple, biblical tools for sharing the gospel, making disciples, and multiplying healthy disciple-making communities. Whether you're new to disciple-making or have been involved for many years, 5 in 12 will help you take the next step in living and multiplying the mission of Jesus.

What Happens Between the Trainings?

Between each training, participants are encouraged to:
obey and apply what Jesus is teaching them
practise sharing the gospel in everyday life
use simple discipleship tools with others
begin Discovery and Follow Jesus groups

greater confidence to share the gospel naturally
simple and repeatable tools for evangelism and discipleship
