We make Multiplying Disciples around the world using simple and reproducible tools.

Let's Connect

Training Leaders to Multiply Disciples Globally

Disciples make disciples. The Multiply Initiative trains leaders in countries all over the world to make multiplying disciples using simple, biblical tools. We train them in a way that is easily reproducible so that the disciples they make can go and make more disciples!

Core Values of The Multiply Initiative

Seeking God’s Kingdom first. Investing in local believers. Simplicity and reproducibility. A deep commitment to the Word of God. 

We equip believers in biblical vision and missional strategy. Our lead trainers have years of experience working on the international mission field. Entering into new areas, sharing the gospel in different cultures, gathering believers together to be discipled and planting biblical churches.

Biblical Foundations of Multiplication

Throughout the Bible we see that God's plan has always been to fill the earth with worshippers. In the opening chapters of Acts we often see verses that speak to the fact that God was “adding to their number.” But then in Acts 6 as the church grew, the word “multiplied” is used. (“..and the number of the disciples multiplied” Acts 6:7). We see examples of multiplying growth (like one seed that multiplies into many, or yeast that works throughout dough) all through the Bible!

Advancing God's Kingdom Through Reproducible Discipleship

We believe that God often uses multiplying growth to advance His Kingdom around the world. Like seeds falling on good soil “some multiplying thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times. Mark 4:8” 

The Multiply Initiative invests in followers of Christ that are “good soil” people in countries all over the globe. We train and equip them in the areas of entry, evangelism, discipleship, church planting and leadership development. And we do this in a reproducible way so that the disciples they make and train, will be able to train others!
