Who We Are 
​

About us

Have you ever felt God nudging you to work among people in communities struggling with poverty?

Would you rather work with people instead of just doing things for them?

Do you sometimes wonder where to find hope for the seemingly intractable problems facing so many people in our broken world?

With over 35 years of experience ministering holistically around the world, Discipling for Development (D4D) can help you practice whole-life discipleship, address poverty alleviation, and work with communities to experience God’s restoration in all areas of life.

Discipleship

blurb about discipleship

Development

We believe God cares about all aspects of life — every season of our lives is near and dear to the heart of God; every moment of our day is sacred to The LORD. 

community

We believe God cares about all people -- everyone. We believe in shalom for all of God's creatures. We believe God's healing, reconciliation, and redemption are meant to transform whole families, households, neighborhoods, and communities. We are blessed to be a blessing, and the Good News of God's Kingdom coming is meant to transcend our lives to bring transformation to those around us as well.
