 As Jesus began his public ministry, he called disciples, apostles to come and follow him, and they in turn were given the mission of going out and creating disciples over the whole world. If you are going to make a disciple of Jesus Christ and you want to be his disciple, then know you have a commitment to the body of Christ and to other humans in the world by helping them to become followers of Christ and being disciples. The Steubenville Discipleship Quad is answering that call to go make disciples in the world. They're equipping us with tools and information that help us become the disciples that Christ has called us to be. In today's day and age when things are crazy and you don't know what end is up, sometimes I find myself being on an island not knowing where to go or who to talk to about challenges and about growing in my faith. The Disciple Show Quad provides an amazing opportunity to meet with like-minded men who are family-driven, who love the faith, who want to grow to know the Lord and get deeper away. Some of the things that you might grow in and learn as a part of these quads are how to pray, how to deepen your relationship with Mary and the church, why we should tithe, how to have hope in the midst of suffering, maybe how to share your faith with others. So there's so many ways that this quad can help you grow as a person in your relationship with Christ and how to share that faith with others. The process of a Steubenville Discipleship Quad is simple and easy to do. Four people gather together on a weekly basis to pray, experience fellowship and accountability as you grow in your understanding of Catholic truth and how to apply it to your lives. In the gospel Jesus models two types of ministry. One is program ministry and the other one is relational ministry. In relational ministry we seek to multiply disciples. My Discipleship Quad consisted of women from my office and it was an incredible opportunity for us to take time out of our week to come together outside of work to really share how we were doing, joys and struggles, what God is doing in our life, how our prayer is going, and to really support one another. The Steubenville Discipleship Quad provides a great opportunity each week to come back and address the things you challenge each other with week before to see how much you've progressed and also to provide opportunities to grow in the faith in the week ahead. The end goal of all this is that once you've completed all the materials and resources in the guidebook is that you would go out and find three other people and start a new quad, thus leading to spiritual multiplication. So if I'm a disciple of Jesus Christ I want to continue to make and multiply more and more disciples long beyond the individuals that I work with and through all the ones they will in turn work with. These witty moments, these wicked opportunities are a great way to not only grow in the faith but they also have accountability amongst you and friends. I challenge and encourage each one of you to join this amazing group. See the disciple is used by the Holy Spirit to multiply themselves in others. And that's what we're called to do.
