Who Are We?
"All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20 CSB
Discipleship Training Ministries, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in 1983 to carry out the directive that Jesus, the Christ, gave to His followers -- "make disciples".
What is our purpose?
In the quotation cited above from Matthew 28, the only clearly stated command in Jesus' words was to "disciple" people. The literal command was "disciplize all nations". A disciple is an active follower of a person, ...an adherent of a belief and a way of life.
At DTM, to "disciple" someone means that we help them to more effectively know and follow Jesus. Though the local church is the primary place where we would expect discipleship to be taking place, oftentimes that is not happening effectively.
What Does DTM Do For People Help Them Grow?
Most of what we do has revolved around one-to-one mentoring, small groups for study and encouragement, seminars and workshops, home church fellowships, and leadership training. We offer problem-solving about personal/spiritual issues, New Testament Greek classes, and the production and distribution of teaching materials.
What Do We Believe?
Discipleship Training Ministries, Inc. believes that the Old and New Testaments of the Bible were divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit to serve as a revelation of the character, nature, and actions of God in history. They are the best, and primary, sources of information regarding all issues of faith and conduct. DTM is soundly within the camp of historic evangelical orthodoxy in regard to our understanding of this revelation.
How are we supported?
We are a faith ministry. We depend entirely on the free-will offerings of people who see that what we do is valuable. If you are interested in giving, all donations qualify as tax-deductible according to law in the United States. There are giving buttons at the top and bottom of each page of the website, through which you can give. Or, you could send a check to:

The Importance of Relationships in the Discipleship Journey
