YOUR YOUTH MINISTRY CURRICULUM
SHOULDN’T FORCE YOU TO
SETTLE FOR SHALLOW FAITH
Most youth ministries are encouraging shallow faith.
As a result, many students are stuck at the starting line.
They’ve received Christ, but they haven’t taken steps toward spiritual maturity.

Just because students know Bible stories doesn’t mean that they have a relationship with Jesus.
If your youth ministry is prioritizing biblical literacy over discipleship, shallow faith could be the result.

Discipleship doesn’t automatically happen when an adult volunteer takes students through a talk sheet.
If your adult volunteers lack training, they’re probably struggling to help students go deeper.

Students can’t take steps towards spiritual maturity without life application.
If you’re small group discussions aren’t geared towards practical life change, students are likely to remain at the starting line of their faith.
HOW IT WORKS
STRATEGY
Using the Deep Discipleship Strategy, you’ll focus on teaching and reinforcing the 8 Roots of the Gospel.

The entire family of Deep Discipleship resources is built on the strategy of the 8 Roots of Discipleship–8 core truths of the Gospel that are essential to the Christian faith.
In every lesson, you’ll reinforce one of these core truths to make sure your students graduate from your ministry without critical gaps in their knowledge of the gospel.
SYSTEM
With the help of the Deep Discipleship System, you’ll train your volunteers how to disciple students.

Deep Discipleship is designed to be more than a curriculum; it’s an entire system to support the discipleship efforts across your ministry.
From training resources for volunteers to monthly guides for parents, you’ll have every tool at your disposal for discipling students.
CONTENT
Teaching through the Deep Discipleship Content, you’ll help students learn to live out their faith.
The heart of Deep Discipleship is its Bible-based content. The lessons are filled with great Bible study questions, interactive experiences, and powerful illustrations.
Most importantly, every lesson also drives at seeing real change in students’ lives and lists a specific “Mark of a Disciple” or sign of maturity.
