Becoming a Family on Mission Pt.1

Discipleship, in many ways, is a re-parenting of people, a re-parenting of their culture.

Do others experience that when they hang out with your family?

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, Caesar and his wife, Tina, share exactly how their family (Team K) grew to include many others as they make disciples in community. When living as a family on mission, discipleship can naturally flow out of your normal family rhythms to include and draw more and more people to God’s family!

  • The ways that discipleship in community mirrors effective parenting.
  • Why church leaders need to have a family worth imitating as the starting point.
  • A heartwarming story of how others have been included in this Team K family.
