The Great Commission

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” 

– Matthew 28:19-20

Overview

Dallas Theological Seminary is committed to strategically raising up the next generation of reproducing disciple-makers. In this effort, we partner with veteran disciple makers who can invest in students who have themselves devoted their lives to the Great Commission. Students are partnered with one of our Disciplers for a two semester experience where you will meet one-on-one throughout the year. If you are in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, these meetings can be face to face or can be by video conference. If you are outside the Dallas/Fort Worth area, these meetings will be by video conference with an option to meet face to face in Dallas sometime during the school year.

 

IMPORTANT: This is a commitment of around 2-2.5 hours a week (at least 60 minutes for preparation and 60-90 minutes for discussion). 

 

Our trained Disciplers use one of two discipleship curriculums (see below) which can easily be used by the student to disciple others. Both of these curriculums are currently being used in churches around the United States and have been translated into many languages.
