Christian Woman Leadership Podcast

What exactly is discipleship, and why is it important to discuss on a leadership podcast? How can churches include discipleship in their structure, and what impact does this have on leadership development?

 

As Christian leaders, we cannot separate the issue of leadership from the issue of discipleship--the two are inextricably linked. But what exactly is discipleship, and how do we implement it in our churches and our everyday lives?

 

In today’s episode, Holly and I are kicking off a new series on Discipleship. We’re diving into our perspectives on discipleship, as well as our own experiences with it. Then we’ll discuss how discipleship can take place within churches and the connection between discipleship and leadership development.
