Are you weary of surface-level knowledge, practice, and relationships in Christian living? Try Intentional Discipleship, developed to form lifelong followers of Jesus Christ through a purposeful process of discipleship. If you're interested in joining an Intentional Discipleship group, please contact Clay Brown (cbrown@mdpc.org). If this is your first ID Group, you must meet with Clay before attending your first group meeting.
When will groups meet?
Clay's ID Group will meet for 25 sessions starting September 8, 2026, to May 4, 2027, as it previews and tests a new study for basic yet comprehensive instruction for discipleship, What Christians Believe, Hope, and Love. While Clay’s group meets on Tuesday evenings (info below), Brett Hurst’s ID Group will meet on Tuesday mornings starting August 25 (see Brett’s group here). A light supper will be provided.
