Jesus calls his followers to make disciples and teach them to live out what he commanded (Matthew 28:18–20). Disciple-making happens as we share life with people, help them grow in faith, and prepare them to walk alongside others. The movement grows when the people we invest in begin investing in someone else. When churches and leaders begin to develop a disciple-making culture, the movement multiplies.
450+pastors and leaders have been discipled through huddles, learning how to make disciples in their own ministry contexts.

The movement began with conversations about disciple-making movements between Daniel Edmonds, Rick Howerton, and Craig Etheredge.
Robert Mullins, then pastor at Crossroads Church in Elmore, Alabama, launched disciple-making at Crossroads. Two other churches began doing the same in their congregations.
As the movement began to get traction, a small group of pastors and leaders gathered at Crossroads Church in Elmore, Alabama, for a Disciple-Making Pastors Roundtable.
A pastor told the group he needed someone to disciple him. Huddles formed shortly afterward so pastors and leaders could experience disciple-making firsthand and learn to practice it where they serve.
Flashpoint brought leaders together at Samford University to explore how Jesus made disciples, helping to expose hundreds to disciple-making principles. Read the Flashpoint article in The Alabama Baptist.
Alabama hosted its first Disciple-Making Conference, and the movement continued to grow.
God continues to grow the disciple-making movement in our state and beyond. Hundreds of pastors and leaders have been discipled in Huddles across our state and thousands have been equipped as disciple-makers.
